APPEAL FROM WILSON

Washington, Oct. 11.-President
Wilson late yesterday issued this
statement on the Fourth Liberty
Loan campaign:-
Recent events have enhanced, not
lessened the importance of this loan
and l hope that my fellow country
men Will let me say ,"lis to them very
frankly. The best that could happen
would be that the loan should not
only be fully subscribed, but very
greatly over-subscribed. We are in
the midst of the greatest exercise OF;
the power of this country that has
ever been Witnessed or forecast and
a single day Of relaxation in that eff
fort would be of traEllcal damage
alike to ourselves and to the rest of
the. world. Nothing has happened
which makes it safe or possible to do
anything but push our efforts to the
utmost. The time is critical, and the
response must be complete.
