Barnes

According to Mrs. Courtlande Barnes,
chairman of the Metropolitan Division
of the Second Federal Reserve District,
the women Of the country have sub
scribed more to the Fourth Liberty
Loan than to any of the previous loans
but they have not subscribed enough.
ut is because women have not yet
learned to buy on credit" said Mrs.
Rarnes yesterday. GAS a class we are
too accustomed to living within our
immediate incomes to feel comfortably
in buying more than we can afford at
the moment and borrowing to pay for
it. But we shall have to learn this
lesson within the next four days, II
this loan is to be q success"
Official figures show that the women
of Manhattan sold $30,000,000 in bonds
during the first half of the campaign;
the women of Brooklyn, s6,056,030.
Among separate organizations, the New

of the organization throughout the
country Her appeal reads:
II ask all women of this country to
protest against any peace save that
which is based upon the unconditional
surrender Of Germany. I ask you to
remember her treachery, her cruelty
and her persistent violation Of every
law Of decency and of every impulse
of humanity.
II ask you to realize that the work
Of women who are in hospitals, home 8
and devastated lands was made a neces-
sity by the war of death and destruc-
tion promulgated and pursued by that
Germany which is now prattling Of
peace.
Base Peace on Lies
III ask you not to forget that the
policy Of Germany has been forever
based upon tissue of lies and upon
the knavery of cunning and her devil
ish submarines. Her poisonous gases,
her hideous atrocities are now the
foundations of her proposed peace.
II ask you to feel that every man
who has died for our flag, or who
stands ready to die for it, forbids the
nation to accept aught at the hands of
Germany other than q surrender that
is absolute.
