STAMPS, RILEY
TELLS FARGOANS
Children Can't Take Two
Billion Dollars Worth,
He Says

You can't sell two billion dollars
worth of War Savings stamps TO
school children, but you can carry
on a campaign of education in pa
triotism and thrift through them that
will make the sale Of such tremen-
dous quantity of securities possible
said Harrison Riley of Chicago, head
of the War Savings Stamp campaign
in the Seventh and Ninth federal re-
serve districts at a dinner given in
his honor last evening at the Card
ner hotel, by George H. HOLSTER,
state director Of the campaign.
The guests at. the dinner included
representatives Of the Fargo banks,
and several Of the active workers in
the county and city campaigns.
Mr., Riley, who is president Of the
Chicago Title and TRUST company,
when he is not working for the gov
eminent for nothing a year, gave a
very straightforward talk on war
finances. He didn't hesitate to tell
unpleasant truths. and those who
heard his talk were most forcibly
impressed with tse facts presented,
which might be summarized in Mr..
Riley's closing remark: big as we
are, and powerful as we are we can't
lick Germany with one hand tied be-
hind our backs"
Mr.. Riley elaborated on the fact
that five men are required to sup
port and serve each soldier.
THAT means. with an army of 81
10000 100000 more units OF man
power engaged in war work" said
Mr.. Riley. Our total man power is
estimated at 35,000.O00 units, so that
the remaining 100000 units must
perform the regular work Of the
country. That can't be done without
eliminating everything that is unes-
sential. and that includes much that
we now think is essential"

in getting what l want at the stores
and restaurants, but am not able to
carry on much of Il conversation I'M
less l meet up with some of those
that know few words of English
and then we can understand each

that we may be able to do something
they havn't expected. The latest
news from our American paper on
this side states that seven Americans
arrive on this side every minute or

an American quartermaster store of

ever be in this war when he was
reading about it three or four years
ago. His letter reads

This is fine country over here
and fine people too. They are so
friendly, and believe me, they had a
time before the war OF course now
everything is tore up in some places,
but still they haven't given up yet
by no means. They all greet Ameri-
cans with a smile and try to talk to
us. Some have learned our language
a little and we can talk to them in
their language some, but by and by
we will learn to talk to them all
right
We all want to see our friends at
home, but | have never seen home

take us in the trenches for few days
then we are sent back to some town
to rest up for while And believe
me we are in nice one now. In a
