GREAT PARADE
OPENS BOND DRIVE
IN SALEM TODAY
Military Organization and
Civilians March to Boost
Liberty Loan

The third liberty loan campaign was
initiated this afternoon with what is
considered the best parade of the
'sspontaneous'' variety staged in the
city for some time. 1t is estimated that
at least 1000 people were in line, in
GLIDING all the military organizations
of the city, and the school children,
about 400 children being in line. The
opening of the drive was announced at
l o'clock by the ringing of bells and
blowing of whistles, and shortly after
the parade started.
The high school cadets and the G. A.
r. attracted much of the applause. The
cadets displayed considerable knowledge
of military tactics, and handled them
selves as soldiers. The Home Guards and
Cherrians also received favorable at
tention from the onlookers.
AS the parade was decided on Thurs
day, arranged Friday, and staged Sat
urday, it was impossible to secure a
large number Of floats but those which
did appear were of the better variety.
The Belgian relief, the ned Cross and
other organizations were present, and
the state house was represented by cars
from various offices, and the service
flag of the Highway commission. A float
featuring a frozen Kaiser brought forth
more than the usual applause.
The parade was closed with a num-
Der of automobiles, filled with citizens
of the city who volunteered the cars
and themselves for the purpose of MAX
ing the parade a success. Over a humid
red cars were in line, and the special
~feGures committee Of the local liberty
loan organization, which is in charge
Of the parade, believes that if the So
Letting department meets with the re-
sponse the parade workers received
from the city, the city's quota will
be "over the top" in less than the
three days time set at presen.
The parade formed along Marion
street about 1890, and was ready to
start at the appointed time. The two
bands secured by the committee were
on hand and assisted the bells and
whistles of the city in noise-making,
and in addition produced the usual
amount Of harmony. The parade was
lead by General Steiner and Mayor
Keyes accompanied by the staff, and
followed by the city police force.
The home guards and Cherrians fol
lowed, the newly organized company
of guards making up in enthusiasm
what they lacked in drill experience.
The fraternal organizations turned out
in good shape, and a large section of
the line was taken up by them. The
boy scouts and school children formed
the next section, and they were fol
lowed by the business people, citizens,
and by the automobile section.
The stores were closed from IL to 2
in the afternoon, and as a result the
streets were crowded while the parade
passed. The blowing of whistles and

Roosevelt Accused

Washington, April c. Theodore

Kellogg that Roosevelt undoubtedly

Liberty Loan Rally
at Donald Last Night

Before a large and ap%preciative au-
dience at Donald last night Oscar b.
Gingrich, secretary of the Y. M. Q. A.,
and M. d. McCallister, of the state
corporation department, divided the
time speaking on the subject of the
third liberty loan.
The meeting vas presided over by
James p. Teller, who is a candidate for
county commissioner of Marion coun-
lty. The meeting had every aspect of
a patriotic rally, opened by the sing
ing of America followed by patriotic
songs by one of Donald $ singers. Mr..
Feller then introduced Mr.. McCallister
who spoke briefly on the purpose OF
the liberty loan and the technical fea-
lures necessary for a full understand
ing of the purchase of the bonds. Mr..
Ginprich followed with o patriotic ad-
dress on the war in general, setting
forth the responsibility of the citizen
ship of the United States. He empha-
sized very strongly the fact that tins
country must never get to the place
where the citizenship must be eoereed
into contributing to war necessities,
saying the best way to put a star in
1.-THE CROWN of kaiser Bill is to let him
know that we were forced to give rath-
er than we gave voluntarily and will
ingly. We will however get the neces''
sary funds to maintain an efficient
fighting force both at home and abroad
lHowY That remains with you.
On the other hand Kaiser Bill has
received numerous and terrible shocks
when he learned that the 1st and End
liberty loans were way over subscrib-
ed. That the Red Cross instead of Sc
Ieuring 800, 000, 900 reached the $ll5,
loco, 000 mark and the Y. NJ. c. A. $780,
loco, 900 instead Of $35, 100000, and
this by voluntary contributions and
purchases. May we always be able to
say in truth, my Country IT'S for
three, Sweet Land of Liberty, by
coming up to the full measure Of our
responsibility and thus obviate any
more drastic measures which might be
misconstrued by our enemies across
seas. The meeting closed with the sing
ing of the Star Spangled Banner.

ringing Of the city's bells was prod
uctive Of as much noise as was con-
sidered possible, and it is probable that
the town batted a thousand in this
particular. 1t is believed that every
whistle, from the factories to the pea
nut stand joined in the festivities.
The governor fell in line with the
spirit Of the drive yesterday afternoon
and issued the following proclamation:
II must earnestly urge as a patri-
otto duty that every employee of the
state capital as well as the business
men and other residents of the city of
Salem manifest their patriotic interest
in the Third Liberty Loan campaign
by participating in the parade to be
held in Salem at l p. m. Saturday,
Liberty Day. Let this be a whole
hearted response in the interests of
our liberty boys who are doing valient
service for us in France"
Cadets Modified.
The High School cadets were mobil-
lied last night at midnight and spent
the remainder of the night in hanging
Liberty Bells on every door mob in
Salem. The paper bells will remain
up today only, and will be taken down
tomorrow. Today has been designated
as Liberty Day, and the bells formed
a part Of the advertising campaign now
being put on over the state.
Canadians to speak.
The local organization will have the
assistance of two Canadian soldiers,
who have some interesting stories to
tell of the great war. Sergeant Major
Christy, one of the men, has been
wounded eight times, and has been in
most of the important actions in which
the Canadian army has distinguished
itself. Private Burke, the other lectur,
err, was captured by the Germans, but
made his escape and returned to the
British lines. He is on a leave of alb
sence now, and has been sent by the
Canadian government to assist Oregon
in the Liberty Loan drive. The men
will arrive from Albany on Tuesday
and will remain at the disposal of the
local committee until Friday. An
itinerary has not been arranged, but
they win speak in Marion county
cities as well as in Salem.
