Make Tomorrow Bond Day!

Tomorrow is government pay day. It
should be bond-buying day for every
Washingtonian. Our quota here is
$27 5000. We are going to subscribe
it, and over. That is assured from our
record in the previous loans, in all Of
which we event over the top" by a
good margin. Now we want to reach
the quota in record time.
If every person who intends to buy
a bond of the fourth issue will only
make up his-or her-mind to do it
promptly, this result can be achieved.
Tomorrow is better day than day
after tomorrow. Procrastination means
delay in scoring our goal. This i'm
mediate pay day will be better than
that on the 18th, because it will put
the District two weeks ahead of the
game.
One big push and the quota will be
reached. A IS cash payment will start
the purchase of $50 bond upon either
the Treasury plan" or the "bank
plan" Of payment. A $40 payment will
start the buying of a 500 bond. That
IS or that $40 can be spared tomorrow
as we'll as a fortnight hence.
1t is not enough merely to put the
District across the line of the quota.
We must do better than that. Some
small towns subscribe to the limit on
the first day. If this big town can get
its quota filled within week it will
be doing remarkably we'll. And it is
by doing remarkably we'll, in the bat
tie field and in the munition plants
and the shipyards and the mills and
on the farms at home and in the field
of bond-taking everywhere, that the
American people are going to insure
speedy and enduring victory in this
war.
Let us, therefore, do remarkably we'll
now and show the country that WASH
ington is 100 per cent in earnest for
the triumph Of our cause.

THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN.

liberty loan "the baFrage which will
precede the victorious thrust OF our
Army" 1t was very happy cempari-
son. The people will see to 1t that the
barrage comes squarely UP to require
ments.
From the Columbus Ohio State Journal.
Many people did more than their
share under former issues; now the
idea is that everybody shall do his
share.
Frem the Philadelphia Inquirer.
All of US must subscribe to the limit
Of our ability, which Is much more
than most of us imagine.

To the millions who fight the great
fight in France the liberty loan will
be a ringing word across the inter-
yening leagues. The liberty bond IL

peoples guarantee, their given word.

Subscription Rate by Mail
A General Offensive.

The whole west front is afame with
battle, from Verdun to the sea. Foch
is striking a mighty blow. The Bel
CLANS are in action from the coast to
Ypfes and are making advances. The
British are hitting hard from Ypres
southwark, especially in the direction
of Cambria, where the Hindenburg
line is bending and cracking. The
French are continuing their pressure
upon the enemy lines from st. Quentin
around to the Aisne, biting in here
and there and keeping large numbers
of the foe engaged. The Americans are
peppering the enemy north of the
Vesle, in minor but harassing local
engagements. For a short space east
of Rheims there is comparative quiet,
but beyond, in the Champagne, there
is fierce fighting as the French advance
west of the Argonne and the Ameri-
cans, taking up the flank of the wide
flung battle line, are carrying on de-
spite desperate German resistance.
Thus for fully two hundred and fifty
miles the forces of the allies are
smashing at the enemy. 1t is the near
est approach to general offensive"
that has thus far been maintained,
since the beginning of trench warfare.
There is no chance for the Germans
to send divisions here and there in re-
enforcement. There is no chance for
them to dispatch aid to the Austrians,
menaced by an impending Italian at
tack, or to the Bulgars, already NOV
ing toward peace, or to the Turks, de-
feated and demoralized in Asia.
Such an offensive could not have
been maintained save for the addition
to the fighting line of an army of
Americans. just how many of our men
are in that line cannot be stated, but
there are enough to care for at least
sixty miles of the front, probably a
longer stretch, including the sector to-
ward Alsace. And with more Ameri-
cans arriving weekly, in large num-
beers, the allied reserve grows steadily,
while the enemy's reserve is dimin-
ished.
Bulgaria's detection, Turkeys de-
feat, Russia's arousal from the grip Of
, German bought bolshevism, Rumania's
readiness to re-enter the conflict at
i the earliest possible chance, all these
are factors of Encouragement to the
central powers. But there are positive
elements making for their defeat as

now engaged on the field that will

undertaken to present it throughout
the country"
There is still talk about recess of
Congress until after the elections, and
one of the reasons given is that the
step would enable the members, SEN
ators and representatives alike, to 60
to their constituents aud appeal in per-
son for subscriptions to the loan.
The Presidents faith in the people
should be shared by the national legis-
lators. No special word from them is
necessary. The loan will be taken full
care of. It has been we'll advertised,
and in every community interest has
been aroused.
Congress can afford to be frank with
the people, and doubtless will be. If
a recess is taken the action will rest
solely on the very keen desire Of men,
beers to go home and look after their
campaigns. And they will be buster
soliciting votes than subscriptions to
the loan. Not that they will feel in
different about the loan, but because
they will feel that it is assured.
Their reelection, on the other hand,
is not assured. They are facing con-
dition of things new to them and to
the country. Naturally, they are anx-
ious. They want to look over the
ground, and decide upon things for
themselves. They want their commits
sions renewed.
There is so much afoot, and so much
more may be afoot in the near future,
men in congressional commission want
to remain. Congress is a very busy
tribunal. It is dealing with many new
besides many odd questions, and al,
new and old, are big questions. This
makes for increased interest in con-
gressional work, and especially ON the
part Of those who have helped shape
legislative matters as they stand to-
day.
A recess, however, if taken, will be
at risk. The one taken O short time
ago had to be curtailed on account of
a pressure of public business that had
suddenly ripened and could not wait.
A similar thing might happen again.
Besides, candidates for reelection
| might have to reply to criticisms Of
their opponents about leaving Wash
ington and its public ends for home
and its private ends.

Preparedness for Peace.

The resolution introduced in the
Senate Friday by Mr.. Weeks deals
with subject Of very great, and grow
ing, interest. 1t is under discussion in
both legislative and business circles.
In some way it should be dealt with.
Whether the way proposed by the
Massachusetts, senator is best, or would

course, to discussion. Its author has
invited discussion, and is doubtless
prepared to auplify the views he CT
pressed in introducing it.

The colored woman has always done

But the war does a lot of things.

the world has never before known, and
yet were without an Army, properly
so-called, or Navy in any degree ade-
quate for our purposes and obligations,
even in peace times.
Instantly, of course, preparations be-
gan. But, necessarily. everything was
hurried. Efforts were made to crowd
the task of years into months. Con-
fusion followed. Workings at cross
purposes were inevitable; and waste
always attends such embarrassments.
So now as to peace. War came upon
the world like flash. Peace may come
as suddenly. Suppose it should. What
would be our policy or polieiess We
should face an enormous problem, with
corresponding obligations.
At that time, whenever it comes, we
shall want to get of on the right foot,
and be ready for long and difficult
journey. We shall find ourselves in
brisk and vigorous and capable COM
pany. Our allies of today will be our
competitors then. In the matter of
recuperation from the appalling de-
structions Of war, the times will be
strenuous beyond all precedent. We
must face them, and should be ready
for them.
The part Of Congress in the business
will be important, as is the part Of that
body in all business affecting the ma
tional welfare. Mr.. Weeks wants steps
taken now to insure the proper and
adequate performance of that part. His
proposition, therefore, should have at
tention as to its efficacy. If it will
meet the needs, it should be adopted.
If it could be amended and enlarged
to advantage, that should be done.
