ASK GERMAN NEWSPAPERS
 IN NEBRASKA TO SUSPEND

OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 1.-The cham Der of commerce committee on Ameri- canization has made recommends tfon that German language newspa. pers in Nebraska suspend publication during the war.
 We recommend this," says the re- port, with full appreciation of the ef. forts made by the German press in Nebraska to demonstrate it's conver. sion to loyal Americanism and, though suspension may entail some hardship we think it is sacrifice they should be willing to make. It is very small compared with that which Germanism has forced upon the allied countries as we'll as neutral nations of the world"

THE PRESIDENT DESIGNATES OCT. 12
 AS LIBERTY DAY.
Asks That Americas Discovery Be Celebrated in a Way To
 Stimulate Generous Re-
 spence to New Loan
By the President of the United States
 of America.

By the President of the United States
 of America.
 A Proclamation
 Every day the great principles for which we are fighting take fresh hold upon our thought and purpose and make it clearer what the end must be and what we must do to achieve it. We now know more certainly that we ever knew before why free men brought the great nation and Govern ment we love into existence, because lit grows clearer and clearer what su- preme service it is to be America's privilege to render to the world. The anniversary of the discovery of Am erica must therefore have for us in this fateful year a peculiar and thrill ling significance. We should make it a day of ardent rededication to the ideals upon which our Government is founded and by which our present heroic tasks are inspired. Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Will son, President of the United States of America, do appoint Saturday, the 18th day of October, 1918, as Liberty Day. On that day I request the citi- zens of every community of the Unit ed States, city, town, and countryside to celebrate the discovery of our country in order to stimulate response to the fourth Liberty loan. Commem- orative addresses, pageants, harvest home festivals, or other demOnstra- 1 tions should be arranged, for in every neighborhood under the general di- rectiOn of the Secretary of the Treas ury and the immediate direction of the Liberty loan committee in cooper ation with the United States Bureau l of Education and the public-school au- i thorities. Let the peoples response to the fourth Liberty loan express the measure of their devotion to the ideals which have guided the country from it's discovery until now, and of their determined purpose to defend them and guarantee their triumph.
 For the purpose of participating in Liberty Day celebration all employ es of the Federal Government through out the country whose services can be spared may be excused on Saturday, i the 18th day of October, for the entire day.
 In witness whereof, have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
 Done in the District of Columbia this 18th day of September in the year of our Lord 1918, and of the indepen- dence of the United States of Ameri- !. ca the 143rd

National Banks by Marjorie ?. Smith
Modern banking began in the lstf
century. during Abraham Lincoln's adj
ministration, at the time the Government
began isuing paper money, or green
backs"
The National Bank il an institution
which receives money from its deposltors
and loans it out TO borrowers, charging
the borrowers interest for the loan.
The banks pc the depositors interest
or a percent on the money which he de-
posits. All National Banks are CON
trolled BY the Government and pay in
terest at per cent. to the depositors.
There are more than seven thousand
National Banks in the United States.
1t is much better to have money in a
bank than in home in pocketbook,
for in the bank it will be multiplying
and il also much safer.
Money can be withdrawn at any time
by the person who deposited it.
The bankers are the. pillars and the
support of the nation.

National Banks" by Orlo II. Spear,
I'd Prize Winner.


I'd Prize Winner.
The national banks were organized
during the Civil war, when it became
necessary to have a standard currency,
which could not be obtained by allowing
private banks to issue notes of their
own.
Peoples money is always safe in ma
tional banks for the following reasons:
All these banks are under the control of
the government through the comptroller
of the currency; no bank can bear the
name, National" unless it is transact
ing business under the United States
laws; the banks are thoroughly exam
ined at least twice year by expert
bankers; every national bank is mem
Der of the Federal Reserve system, a
great system in which all national banks,
and some state banks, are united for the
protection of all members; stockholders
are assessed an amount equalling their
stock before the depositor sustains a.
loss; and they are governed by board
of directors chosen by the stockholders.

National Banks" by Helen Rossi,
Sd Prize Winner.

The present system of National Banks
was inaugurated i'm 1864.
National Banks are controlled by the
government, and are in charge of an Off
Ger called the Comptroller of the Cur
reney. They must have capital accord
ing to population. and it is regulated by
the government. They purchase bonds
and receive circulating notes equal TO
their capital.
National Banks are members of the
Federal Reserve System, which combines
their resources for the protection of any
member. About per cent. of the de-
posits must be deposited in cash in the
Federal Reserve Bank in case of an
emergency.
National Banks are examined about
twice yearly and reports are sent from
Washington td Board of Directors.
The Boards of Directors consist of men
who govern these hanks. They must own
a certain number Of shares and are re-
sponsible for the conduct Of the banks
affairs.
National Banks pay 4 per cent. inter
est on deposits in savings department.
