The securities issued by the
treasury department are so many
Of them within the reach of every
one that the door Of opportunity in
this matter is wide open to all
Of US. To practice thrift in peace
times is a virtue and brings great
benefit to' the individual at all
times; with the desperate need of
the civilized world today for ma
terials and labor with which to
end the war, the practice of indi-
vidual thrift is a patriotic duty
and a necessity.
! appeal to all who now own Ell
their liberty bonds or war savings
stamps to continue to practice
economy and thrift and to appeal
to all who do not own government
securities to do likewise and pur-
chase them to the extent of their
means. The man who buys gov
eminent securities transfers the
purchasing power of his money to
the United States government until
after this war, and to that same
degree does not buy in competition
with the government.
nestly appeal to every man,
woman and child to pledge them
selves on or before the 18th of June
to save constantly and to buy as
regularly as possible the securi-
ties Of the government; and to do
this as far as possible through
membership of war savings socie-
ties. The 18th of June ends this
special period Of enlistment in the
great volunteer army of produc-
tiop and saving here at home. May
there be none tmenlisted on that
day. WOODROW WILSON.

This war is one of natiOns--nOt
Of armies-and all Of our 100000
600 people must be economically
and industrially adjusted to war
conditions if this nation is to play
it's full part in the conflict. The
problem before us is not primarily
a financial problem, but rather q
problem of increased production of
war essentials and the saving of
materials and labor necessary for
the support and equipment Of our
army and navy. Thoughtless ex-
penditure of money for non-essen-
tials uses up the labor of men, the
products of the farm, mines and
factories, and overburdens trans
portation, all of which must be
used to the utmost and at their
best for war purposes.
The great results which we seek
can be obtained only by the par
ticipation of every member of the
nation, young and old, in a ma
tional concerted thrift movement.
|, therefore, urge that our people
everywhere pledge themselves, as
suggested by the secretary of the
treasury, to the practice
to serve the government to their
utmost in increasing production in
all fields necessary to the winning
of the war; to conserve food and
fuel and useful materials of every
kind; to devote their labor only to
the most necessary task, and to
buy only those things which are
essential to individual efficiency,
and that the people, as evidence Of
their loyalty, invest all they can
save in liberty bonds and war saw
ings stamps.
