WAR SAVINGS DAY

The United States Government has
set Friday, June 20, as National War
Savings day, and asks that each and
every American citizen observe the
day by the purchase Of War Savings
Stamps.
The observance of the day in this
way would mean that the United
States would have $425, 00O, 900 loaned
to it in one single day by its citizens;
that it would have this much moro
money to use in the great struggle
that is to make the world safe, not
only for democracy, but for the life of
each and everyone, as the examples
which the Huns have put before US,
can make us believe only one thing
that we stand the chance of going the
way of heroic Belgium or devastated
Serbia should the nun achieve his
aims.
Right must come, and this means
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1918-06-13

that the American people must con-
tinue to lend the government, in order
that the funds TO carry on the great
struggle for right, will be forthcom-
ing.
Here in Gratiot county quota of
$497 200 has been set, this being an
amount considerably in excess Of that
which Gratiot recently raised on the
Third Liberty Loan, and it means
that the people of the county must do
some tall hustling to achieve the
mark which has been set and fill the
quota.
Gratiot county has demonstrated
that she can do the thing which she
is asked to do. Everyone purchase a
War Savings Stamp and then add an
other with every available opportu-
nifty and watch old Gratiot come
through with her quota.

The proposition of the Democratic
bosses in session at Lansing this week
asking the Republicans of the state
to unite on Henry Ford of Detroit for
United States Senator is about as
foxy a scheme as we have heard Of in
some time. In the first place Mr.. Ford
has not, to the satisfaction of the
people of the state, convinced them
what his politics are, his attitude on
many questions would indicate that he
was a democrat and that he has but
few qualifications for Senator.
There is no chance of the Republicans
falling for the proposition. The Rec
ord has not as yet expressed its choice
for Senator but in the light of cir
cumstances we believe that Truman
II. Newberry of Detroit is the strong
est and most logical man from point
of ability and experience Of any can
didate yet announced. With the or
ganization he is perfecting in the
state, and his experience as Ex-Secre-
tary of the Navy and his present
position would make him a strong
candidate and most valuable man in
the u. S. Senate. There has never been
any question as to Newberry's poll
tics; he is a staunch republican and a
man of wide acquaintance. We believe
him the best and strongest candidate
for the Republican nomination and the
Record will do what it can for his
success
