AN OPEN LETTER

OuCCC, NAVAlC0Al0S

To the People of Moderate Means of the
State of Montana:
Reports from the State Central Ac-
counting post Offices at Helena and the Fed
eral Reserve Bank at Minneapolis, as of
March LIST, show that Montana had raised
have been raised by March list.
There is no limit to the subscriptions
that may be taken for Liberty Bonds.
Wealthy corporations and individuals may
take huge amounts. Therefore, the sub
%scripti0ns to these loans do not so fully re-
fleet the sentiments of the masses as do the
subscriptions to the War Savings loan,
~whereupOn is placed a limit Of ownership of
81, 1000, so that they shall not come into the
possession Of the wealthy in large guam
titles, but will be confined to and held by the
class of people for whom they were de-
signed.
This War Savings loan carries with it
a deeper significance than do ordinary
loans. Every dollar of this loan will be hal
lowed and sanctified by the thought that it
reflects some act of self-denial on the part
of the subscribers, prompted by a loyal and
patriotic desire to serve their country.
It is offered in certificates of small de-
nominations for the accommodation Of peo-
pie OF moderate means. To them, an opp0r-
tunity and a privilege has been offered. To
them, this question has been directed. Will
you take up this loan offered by your Gov
eminent by saving and investing your saw
ings in it?
The people of moderate means of this
country represent the bulk of our popula-
ton, the Drawn and sinew of our country
they are the bulwark of the Nation.
Tn prO-Germans in this country and
their allies in Germany are listening and
awaiting the answer you will return to this
question.
There is no eleventh-hour relief that
can be furnished by the willing wealthy, to
avoid the embarrassment of an under-sub-
scription to this loan.
1t rests with you and with you alone to
take up this Government obligation and to
furnish the answer. It is confidently be-
lieved you will do this, and quickly, when
you are aroused to the vital consequences
depending upon the response to this, your
c0untry's call.
Whether your reply is "yes'' or whether
it is mo-" it is the voice of the whole coun-
try speaking-to Germany and to the world.
If your reply is in the affirmative, you
have done something that reflects the pat
riotic sentiment of a loyal and determined
PCVPAC- oONuCC1llltS IudC Will CoA1y " OuT
enemies the firm conviction that the voice of
the entire nation has spoken, that we stand
as a unit in endorsing and supporting this
righteous war for liberty and humanity.
If, on the contrary, your reply is in the
negative, if you fail you have extended aid
and comfort to the enemy in an infinitely
greater extent than the winning by them of
many battles.
Remember, Germany awaits the N
swer to this momentous question by the
common people of this country to the call
Of the Wal Savings Loan. 1t is up to you to
furnish it. Let Germany have your answer,
and soon, for the quicker you furnish it the
more effective it will be.

State Director for War
Savings for Montana.
