and I have seen him deeply moved at
the perils of his friends and fellow citi-

He was ever ready to soothe turbulent

heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved
widow and the children.
Judge G. E. Qvale-As an editor Mr.
Crosby was always conservative and
level of the demagogue. He detested
the narrow minded, selfish and small
bore politicians.
In official life he was universally ac-
commodating and he was a very capable
and efficient postmaster.
Personally, Mr.. Crosby was plain and
unassuming in manner. He was always
courteous and considerate of others.
He was devoted to his home, his church
and his friends. He was a good and
loyal citizen. He was always engaged
in some pursuit and like many another
similarly situated he found few oppor-
tunities for play as he journeyed
through life.

LIBERTY LOAN
INTEREST RATES

Secretary McAdoo officially
corrects a statement appearing
in various newspapers that the
Fourth Liberty Loan will bear
interest at the rate of ~ per
cent. lie states That no thought
has ben entertained of issuing
the bonds of the fourth loan VI
n higher rate than A. per cent.
II is interesting TO recall here
the Sccretary's appeal in his
Third Liberty Loan speeches
that the rate of interest for gov
eminent loRns be stabilized at
a., per cent. lie said that ~
an intelligent people we should
make a stand for the financing
Of our government during the
reriod of the war at a stabilized
rate Of interest, naming "a per
cent as the proper figure, 80 that
all business and Investments
might be adjusted on that basis.
In his letter 10 Majority Leader
Kitchin he strongly urges sta
bilizing the rate at A. per cent.
The Secretary OF the Treasury
has also asserted he did not think
that the patriotism Of the Amer
lean people was measured by the
rate of interest on a Government
bond. and the support the pco.
pie gave the Third Liberty Loan
seems to have justified his be
lief.

LONDON HAS TROUBLE
WITH FOOD ADMINS


Jack London is in bad with
the State Food Administration.
He is the proprietor Of the Co
lumbus Bakery when Mrs. Lon
don is at home. Among other
things he does is to make a week
ly report TO the Division of Bak-
cries Of the Food Administration
regarding the amount Of wheat
-four. corn. sawdust, etc he uses
in baking bread.
Recently one of these reports
was returned him and a letter
received from Mrs. II. l.. Patton
stating that during the week he
had not used one pound of sub
stitutes in his bread. also telling
him that he should have used
SIC pounds of substitutes during
week this report covered, and
furthermore. that unless he us
ed this substitute his bakery H.
cense would be Immediately re-
volked.
Jack again looked over the re-
port he had sent in and there
was the Sic pounds of substi-
tutes recorded just as plain as
your nose on your face. How
anyone could fail to see It is a
mystery, but Mrs Patton evil
IDENTIFY did not or she would not
have threatened to rescind his
license.
