The Veritab1e POmum Adami

i" A DAMS APPLE" like many of
the things which were in dis
favor before the war, has risen to the
dignity Of badge of stamina. 1t is to
the "Keokuk Gate City" that we are in
debted for the following treatise on the
"pomum adami":
General Pershing suggests that -he COL
lars Of uniforms should be high, in order
to hide the Adams apple of the wearer.
But why conceal this badge of stamina
from the world? 1t is an outward evidence
of the combination of brawn and brain for
which America is noted. Lincoln, Washing
ton and Franklin had it we'll developed.
Lincoln, in particular, as his portraits
show, when he wore a low and open collar
exhibited a laryngeal protuberance which
rveted attention. Busts of Casar show it.

day.
wonder whether Americans will allow
me to stir them up little bit by telling
them what Great Britain has done in the
way of raising money. Remember that
we have about half your resources
probably your bankers would put it at
less than half-and we have spent on
the war to date about $38, 800 900, ,OOO
Of this money nearly 10000, 900, 900 has
been raised by taxation leaving $685.

is, of course, patriotic, but what really
helps the nation is actual thrift-cash
laid by and invested with the country.
| am myself pretty we'll loaded up with
British war loan, but I hold modest
amount of the Liberty Loan and shall take
more, because there could not be found
anywhere a finer security The interest
is 4 per cent. The paper is as good as
gold. | am aware that at times it has
stood at certain discount, and | only
wish that I had money to buy the exist
ing stock, and get the benefit of the in
evitable rise to par or beyond it, If the
discount is due to enemy influences oper-
ating on the markets, we must fight it
all the harder. Probably it indicates that
people have taken up the loan without
adequately curtailing their unnecessary

bankers to pay their taxes because they
cannot suddenly adjust their expendi-
ture to new conditions Their expendi-
ture, you must remember, often includes
immense subscriptions to objects like the
Red Cross and Y. M. C. A. They cannot
put into the Liberty Loan the funds
which they have already epaid away to
the tax collector. On the other hand
many smaller incomes have been in
creased. On these small incomes taxes
are much lower here than in Britain. A
man with q salary Of $500 here pays
about $780, In the United Kingdom it
would be almost exactly seven times that
citizen should assuredly put the differ
ence into the Liberty Loan before he be-
gins to reckon out his average of $50.
Also, in the case of the Liberty loan, it is
possible that all moderate investments
will be tax free This is an immensely
valuable privilege. 1t has meant that
your first loan of 100000, 900, though
issued at only 3A per cent, has often
stood above par. 1t is said that this
security is favored particularly by mil
lionaires and for very understandable
reason. They are the people who benefit
most by tax exemption. Apparently Mr..
McAdoo considers that the patriotic man
of moderate means should also share the
advantage of a security, which frees him
from income tax, to the extent of a rea-
sonable holding-say 100000.
Again, while undoubtedly the United
States has immense potential wealth, it
is not yet fully developed country.
Before the war new enterprises here ab-
sorbed all available capital and much
European capital also.
The position to-day is that European
capital has been cut OFF. In fact, you
have bought back your paper placed in
London, and instead of borrowing from
the Old World you are lending. Yet

Having borrowed $4,000, 1000, 900, you
are thus just up to one third of the Brit
lsh achlevement-to be accurate, reckon
ing temporary debt, it is more than
third. If in your present financial year
you raise three Liberty loans of S5 ,OOO,-
100000 apiece, you will still arrive at
June 80 with less war debt than Great
Britain will have to shoulder on that
date.
Let me continue to stimulate this
friendly competition. Up to the present
your best loan was the third-which
brought in $3,8O0,0OO, 600 In February
1917 after two and one-half years Of
war, we raised very nearly $5,O0O,OOO,-
900. Since then we have placed an
other $5,000,000 GOO of national war
bonds, sold regularly at the rate of
S100,0OO,0O0 to S15O,OOO 900 week. We
place $10,0O0,000 a week in war savings
certificates alone, by which we have got
in SS00,O00,000 up to date And we have
over S5,O00,0 100000 of Treasury bills
outstanding. No account is here taken
