Do VAST BORROWINGS
Of j. S. TO WIN WAR
CAUSE YOU WORRY?
Think Of the Many Opportunities for
Investment Which the War
Loans Offer.

The vast borrowings Of the govern
ment made necessary by the wal have
startled a good many patriotic but
short-thlnking people, Involuntary
perhaps, they feel that an exacting de-
mand is being made on everybody and
they grow uneasy and restless.
Private and public expenditures are
being curbed right and left SO that the
government may have more and more
money.
But the money is staying right here
in this country. And the great gov
eminent war issues afford excellent
investment opportunities to the bust
ness man. He can loan his capital to
the government at 4A per cent inter
est, a rate which after the war will
make a security of such safety gilt
edged, and he can get his capital back
at a time when its purchasing power
will be greatly increased.
Financiers study Situation.
mo doubt these factors will e ap.
preciated in time and the bonds viii
ultimately find their proper market
levels" says the Wall Street Journal.
That financial journal goes on to say
that the under-par prices quoted dur
ing the summer on some of the issues
reflect only a temporary condition. 1t
says further that every effort is being
made and will be made by the Secre.
tary Of the Treasury to see that all
legislation which has to do with money
will work out to the benefit Of the
%bondholder.
F%inanciers who have studied the
loan sales, which have been compare
lively few, report that a large number
of the transactions are started by mis-
informed holders of small amounts Of
bonds who do not understand the tax
statutes.
"A great many small investors In
the 4 and Az per cent bonds" says the
Wall Street Journal, do not seem to
realize that their securities for the
most part possess the same merits as
the tax free S14 per CEN bonds of the

BATTLE FOR HUMANITY
~Farrington's Big Union

Frank harrington, author Of
the accompanying article, is
President of the Illinois Dis
trict of the United Mine
Workers of America, and one
of the best known labor lead
ers in this country. His dis
trict union has a membership
of close to one hundred thou

duction in the United States

a coIored Man,s Eramnle-

1t was a wise and patriotic old col
ored American who refused to sell his
500 Liberty Bond for S96, because ne
would not give up the United States
promise (his bond) to pay him 500
with interest for the United States

and who relu]ed to sell the same bond
for STOP, because, he said, that the
Sl02 must be counterfeit or else the
would-be purchaser would not be will
ling to give it for only 500. It is safe
to say that there are no gold bricks OF

they fight to establish the supreme
principle that mankind shall he free
and III t liberty and justice shall be
triumphant throughout the world.
If Autocracy should win in this
titanic struggle for human rights, all
our accomplishments Of the past
would be swept away and tyranny and
oppression would be rampant through
out the world. Should that come true,
no class would suffer as much as the
men and women Of labor, and it will
come true if we fail to support our
Government in the present crisis.
A government can be no stronger
than the people living under it make
it, and if we fail to respond to u
Governments appeal for help our war
policy must collapse and our country
men "over there must fail, and in
that event it is inevitable that the
forces Of ]autocracy shall be triumph
ant over the forces Of democracy.
Thus il is that every working man and
working woman in America should
buy Liberty Bonds.
Money invested in Liberty Bonds is
as safe as u Government itself. The
Illinois district of the United Mine
Workers Of America has purchased
$500, 900 worth Of the first, second and
third issues Of bonds out of district
funds and we propose TO buy $50O,OO
worth Of the fourth issue. Our various
local unions have made purchases ag-
g%regating millions and I am certain
they will buy bountifully Of the fourth
issue. The rate Of interest paid on
such investment is fair. However, the
paramount reason why we should buy
Liberty Bonds is because the fate Of
the world is in the balance, the free.
dom and happiness Of humanity is al
stake, and the sale of Liberty Bonds
is n of the mediums through which
our Government must raise the money
to feed and equip and to care for our
sons and brothers, Il relatives and
associates, our CONFERENCE.-THE boys
over there"-while they fight to crush
autocracy and TO implant in its stead
liberty and justice for all the peoples
of all the nations Of the world.

Buy Liberty Bonds to The Limit, Is
Plea Of President Harrington,
Of Miners Union
By FRANK HARRINGTON.

Every working man and working
woman in America should buy Liberty
Bonds to the limit Of their ability to
do so. They should buy until it hurts,
and after it begins to hurt they should
keep on buying until their purchase
becomes a personal sacrifice for the
reason that upon the outcome OF the
war raging depends the future fate Of
the workers of America.
Forced to enter a conflict that could
no longer be avoided with safety TO
the liberties Of the people Of America
and the d~emocracies of the world, our
country Is now involved in the most
appalling tragedy that has overtaken
mankind since the beginning of time.
The issue involved is:
Shall Democracy or Autocracy rule
The world? Shall the peoples of dem
ocracies. where d@emocracies obtain,

SMALL
MISSES POINT AS TO
VIRTUAL TAX ESCAPE
Investor Should Realize All Issues He
owns Are Practically Free
From Taxation.

Fnanciers studying the market con.
ditions with regard in particular to
Liberty Bond figures find that a great
many of the bond transactions are mi.
uated by Iersons who do not under
stand the statutes which safeguard the
various issues Of bonds.
For instance, small holders have
been selling their 4 and ~ per cent
bonds in order to buy the 81 per cent
bonds of the first loan, because the
31bs are completely exempt from tax.
AS a matter of fact, for the small in.
yestor the As and 4hs carry the same
freedom from taxation, practically. No
tax now in existence or later to be
levied can affect the As and 4As un.
less the holder owns 81 5000 worth o,
more.

A Big Saving.

These figures we're revealed in a
Treasury statement, issued recently,
appealing to the American public to
turn its savings from abstinence into
War Savings Stamps or set them aside
for investment in Liberty Bonds. The
Treasury statement reminded the pub
lie that these savings which are being
effected are Of no value to the govern
ment in its prosecution Of the war
unless they are made available for
Its use.
The Fuel Administration reported
that the saving Of gasoline on the sec
ond gasless Sunday amounted to
5 100000 gallons, which, valued at rs
cents a gallon, meant a saving TO
American pocketbooks Of S1,250,0OO
In transportation alone this meant a
saving Of 625 tank ears for an average
haul of 200 miles.
The rubber saved by giving tires q
days rest would be sufficient to equiv
$500 motor trucks for the American
army with tires capable Of running
5000 miles.
