money to loan it to Uncle Sam,
enormously wealthy Uncle Sam,
with more money than he knows
what to do with!
But you have noticed in the
last year that Uncle Sam needs
money very badly. because he is
not only spending money in
tremendous sums on his own war
work, but he is lending tremen-
dous amounts Of money to the
allied nations of Europe.
He can get this money for
himself and for the Allies only
from you. And you can lend II to
him only as you save money. Dc
you think enough of your Nation,
Of the splendid United States, to
save little money co lend to it?
Is your Nation among the great
lest things in life in your estima-
ton, Ior is it not? If it is, you
will try as hard to save money
for it as you ever tried in your
life to save money for any pupose
whatsoever.
You should put your country
first in the matter of saving for
it during war time. You should
do that not only because Of love
for your country. but because if
your country is defeated in war
time all your savings may be the
spoils of the enemy.
Your country could demand
that you risk your life in its de-
fense in the most dangerous
place in the war zone. And what
is money compared to life?
But your country, your United
States, does not ask your life Of
you. It simply asks chat you

Why Do You
Save?

Why do you save money if you
do save it? Or why do you try to
save it if you are among those
numerous individuals who try to
save money but seem unable to
do so?
The reasons that inspire you
to save money, even to try to
save it, measure with exactitude
just what kind of man or women,
girl or boy you are.
Are your motives for saving
mean or sordid, selfish Or person
al, or are they high noble, un-
selfish and altruistic? Do you
save just to crafty your own
tastes, or do you save to help
your children to get a better
start in life than you had, or to
provide a comfortable home in
their old age for your parents?
But for whatever motive you
save money it is certain to be for
something that you value most
highly.
Before the United States enter
ed the war you probably never
thought Of saving money in order
to let your country have the ben
eft of it's use. That would have
seemed a nonsensical idea to you
before the call was sent out
from Washington for men and
money.
Why, the very idea of saving

TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wire1

BOSTON, Jan. 27.-Four persons to- day identified Harry Manster as the alleged burglar who last Sunday hur- ried from an apartment house in the Back Bay district where Patrolman Jo- seph c. Reiser was found shot to death.
 Yesterday Manster, who claims Oak land, Cal. as his home, was caught in police trap in his apartment here, to which he was lured by the young wom- an with whom he recently had been iv- ing. He admitted that he was guilty of several apartment house burglaries in this city, but stoutly maintained in- nocence of the charge of murdering the policeman.
 Patrolman Reiser was shot when he pursued a burglary suspect into an apartment house.
 Manster will be arraigned in the Roxbury district court tomorrow charged with murder and larceny. The police allege that he took thousands of dollars worth of jewelry and phono- graph records in more than 80 rob- berries.

 LONDON, Jan. 27-What news has been permitted to pass the German censor indicates that a political hor- nts nest has again been stirred up in Germany. A dispatch from Zurich to the Exchange Telegraph company quotes the Berlin correspondent of the Frankfurt Zeitung as saying that the pan Germans are 'kicking up a tre- mendous row." and declaring that Field Marshal Von Hindenburg and General VOn Ludendorff, dissatisfied with Chan cellor Hertlings speech before the main committee of the reichstag, are again talking of retiring

AMERICA TO TAKE
 RIFLES ORDERED
 FUR RUSSIAN USE
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Jan 27.-Rifles or dered by the Russian government from the Remington Arms Union Metallic company, at Bridgeport, Conn.,, and the Westinghouse company at Spring field, MasS., will be taken over by the government. More than half a million rifles differing only in bore from the AmericaniZed Enfield are involved.
 The desire of the war department to hold together the trained worlxmen in the two plants while these factories are being re- organized to manufacture machine guns is the principal reason for the action.
 After a series of conferences in which the Russian embassy was rep resented, it was decided that the de- partment would, in effect, take over the contracts, reimbursing the manu- lecturers in a manner which will per- init a gradual reduction through the next months of the force engaged on rifle contracts. It is understood the Russian embassy requested and ob- tained an option on the rifle in the hope of eventually being able to take them over.

The petroleum in dustry has made an urgent appeal to the director general of railways to order the railroads at the earliest pos sible moment to give preferred move ment to tank cars.
 The statement says there is danger of the railroads themselves running short of lubricating oil and adds that deliveries by tank cars in December were reduced 31 per cent and that in January the decrease, based on the first fifteen days, will amount to 45 per cent a scompared with the normal amount.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.- Settle ment of the industrial dispute threat ening a strike in the cOuntry'S ten largest packing house centers was ef- fected today in an agreement providing that there shall be no discrimination against union members and that ques- tions of hours and wages shall be re- ferred to an arbitrator appointed by the secretary of labor.
 The awards of the arbitrator, not yet appointed, will be effective as of Jan uary 14.
 Under the agreement grievance com mittees appointed by the workers will be received by the employers, whether their membership consists of union or non- union men. It affects many thous- and workers in Chicago, East St. Louis, Kansas City, Oklahoma City, Fort Worth, St. Joseph Omaha, Denver, St. Paul and Sioux City.
 Suggestion of the union men that the government should take over the packing plants for the war are not af- fected in averting a strike. President Wilson still has the suggestion before him, but in receiving he said other methods of dealing with the situation would be considered first.
 There were IS questions at issue be-
