FINANCING FREEDOM

Money doesn't care who has it
nor what it is spent for.
And the Lord shows his contempt
for it by the people he gives it to.
Yet the worlds greatest advance
ment came after its invention.
Not until the became recognized as
a medium of exchange was long dis
lance commerce possible. Up to that
time international business had been
plain bartering.
Civilization followed closely in the
wake of pioneering commerce. Dom
mating civilization, always, was
despotism. Liberty came trailing
along many years later.
Myriad and often ignoble purposes
have been served by money. 1t is ut
terly constituencies, frequently cruel,
seldom sympathetic. 1t has made ty-
rants of men, despots of rulers, au-
tocracies of nations. Humanity's
welfare is not always its chief con-
Germ.
But moneys day of reparation,
its day of redemption, it at hand.
And YOUR day Of opportunity.
With every dollar at your com
mand you now may participate in the
financing of freedom.
For that's what the Fourth Liber-
ty Loan means. Not only for Ameri-
ca but for all the people of earth.
Not only for you but for your little
brown brother half way round the
world. Not only for the allies but
for poor, mistaken, wandering Rus
STA. Freedom, eventually for all of
us.
1t is moneys chance to square it.
self for the injustices of centuries.
1t is your chance to enlist in the
brotherhood of man. 1t is our chance
to give depotism, tyranny, auto
cracy, PRUSSIANIsNI, its death
blow.
II is the best investment ON earth
today, financially and morally The
safest, the sanest. 1t is without risk.
The man who looks into the future
at all will not fail to see the wisdom
of making the most of this chance.
Don't be among the careless.
