division of our wealth during the next

Now, anyone can see that this thing
must be done.
Anyone can see that if we give so

During the past year or so we have

finance the war We must now go to

Democracy IL Proving Efficient.

That is the thing which must strike
terror to the hearts of the poisoners
violators and baby killers of Berlin
We have met and vanquished the
submarine We are now placing in
the Acid In Europe our second million
Of men, and back of that second mill
lion there is third million, a fourth
million, a fifth million and still other
millions of men.
We have shown ourselves efficient
in production. We have more than
made good our promise to send food
to our allies. We have organized our
industries for war
We have firmly resolved that having
drawn the sword we will throw away
the scshbard and never sheath that
sword except in victory.

VICTORY a Matter Of Money.

But this war Is a progressive thing.
It cnnnot be won through things we
have done, but must be carried on to
victory through things which we must
do In the future. On one side we see
that splendid host of young men car
ryinS our banners in the battlefields
of Francs and Flanders. On the other
side We must remember that war, and
this war more than any other war
which was ever waged, is a matter of
food, Of shelter, of clothing of muni-
tons, Of weapons, of roads, of en-
gines, Of cars, of ships, Of hospitals,
OF medicines, and of everything which
gives to our boys in the field that mag
nifcent dash, and vim, and power
which has struck the German soldiers
with dismay.
In other words, winning this war is
a matter of money.
1t Is matter Of money not only for
the treasury of the United States, but
for all our allies.
When you buy a Liberty bond or a
War Savings stamp 1t means money
for the United States treasury.
When you pay your income taxes
or any of your other contributions to
the government it means money for
the United States treasury.
But money is only a representative
of value and a medium of exchange.
Do not look upon your dollar as a
mere piece of currency. Do not look
upon the United States treasury as
a mere repository of your funds.
Our Treasury UNFOLDING World.
The United States treasury today
is the god atlas who holds the world
upon his shoulders.
1t furnishes money to every one of
our allies which needs money. 1t
breathes hope and confidence into any
allied army which is losing heart. It
puts in the field the artillery which
answers the German gun with shot for
shot. 1t keeps our armies going for
ward instead of backward 1t holds
the line against the German onslaught.
During the coming year this nation
must raise $24.00O,000,090 We have
called these loans in the past Liberty
loans. 1t is about time to begin call
The Mount Holly news. [volume] (Mount Holly, Burlington Co., N.J.) 1891-1942, 1918-09-03

ing them Victory loans. Whatever
we call them, however, $24,000,000,0O0
during the next year the United States
government must have to carry out
our great, magnificent and world-sav-
ing program. About $l6,000,000,0
of this must be raised by loans and
$S,000,000,000 by taxation.
If we do not raise this money the
United States treasury will have fail
ed, and when the United States treas
ury fails the war is lost. If the war
is lost, democracy is lost-the world
is lost.

LABOR AGENTS In
NORTH UNPOPULAR

ATLANTA, Ga, June 13.-The labor
agents who enticed thousands or
negroes north from Georgia and sur
rounding states, by glittering promises
of imaginary prosperity are now as
unpopular in the north as anywhere
else for in some localities they have
persuaded the poor negroes to come
in in such numbers2that they not only
cannot find employment, but actually
cannot get adequate housing arrange
ments even when they have money to
pay for them.
This situation is acute in Chicago,
a city to which many negroes nave
gone. and it is said that welfare work
ers are taking the matter up with the
idea of hoping the unfortunate ones
who were deluded by the false promis
es into going north.
Furthermore the negroes who 40
find places are not satisfied with their
jobs, it is said, and the employers are
not satisfied with the negroes, as they
do not understand their nature and
habits as people in the couth do.

Frost Bitten.

Harold Mueller, young civil engi-
neer of Richmond, whose work carries
him in the country. and In association
with a good many farmers, tells this
story: His mother told him to be on
the lookout for any bargains the farm
er might offer him. While driving
along the road one day In his car he
noticed a sign on the fence which read,
Take home all the pumpkins you
want-free." Mueller thought to him
self, Here is a farmer after my own
heart, who is not a tightwad! !" he got
three of the largest pumpkins he could
find and returned home with his find.
He was quite proud of his find, and a
few days later inquired of his mother
when he. could ehope for nice, pump
kin pie. His heart sank when he
learned the pumpkins had fallen to
pieces. The free pumpkins had been
frost bitten. Indianapolis News.

FEARS A|RPLANEs MAY
BOMB NEW YORK CITY

NEW YORK, June 13.-German all
planes may come to bomb New YORK
Just as German submarines come &c
sink American ships. Give us pre-
lection against hostile airplanes. They
, can be effectively launched from sub
marines.
This, in substance, is The message
of warning sent out by officials of the
Aero Club of America and the Aerial
League of America.
Il wouldn't be surprised If the Ger
mans should begin bombing raid
over New York within fifteen
minutes said Augustus Post, secre
tary of the Aerial League, to report
er. And l don't say that TO be sensa
tional either"
German bombing planes may ap
pear over the city just as suddenly
as the u boats have appeared off the
coast" was the word from the Aero
Club Give the city an adequate de
Tense. 1t is defensiveless now.
I'VE should have anti aircraft guns
mounted and ready, aeroplanes fitted
with guns to give battle to the invad
ers from the sky, airplanes to give
chase over land and water and host
of searchights to pick out maruders
at night.
I'VE shoh have listening towers
equipped with microphone detectors,
so that airplanescould be summoned
from nearby camps. Provisions
should be made Tor plunging the city
into darkness at a moments notice,
stopping traffic and warning the popu
lation to seek cover"
An aviator member of the Aero Club
who has been an Instructor in one of
the Royal Flying Corps training
camps in England, said;
1t has been demonstrated several
times that hydroplants have operated
in hostile waters from submarines.
1t is a comparatively simple matter
to dismantle plane and stow it inside
the larger type of L boat 1t can be
made ready for flying in twenty
minutes.
Machines of this type can get fly
ing sped on comparatively small
movable platform by looming pulling
the machine into the air when the en-
CINE is full on. Such machine
could remain in the air from two and
one half to three hours with a speed
Of from 100 to 140 miles an hour,
giving flying radius of about 400
miles This type is especially effect

WHIRLWIND ~"
CAMPAIGN STARTS

ATLANTA, Ga, June ia whirl
wind recruiting campaign for men for
the transport service of the Army and
Navy Y. NJ c. A. has just been start
ed throughout the southeastern de
partment embracing the states of
Georgia. Alabama, Mississippi, Tennes
see. Florida, North Carolina and South
Carolina, has just been started and
it is hoped that between this date and
September !, one hundred men will
be secured for work on the transports.
BY transport service is meant the
work of scattering sunshine among
the soldier boys when they are max
ing their trips across the ocean and it
is hoped that the southeastern depart
nent will do as well in this work as
they have in the drive for men for the
general work of the Army and Navy
Y. M c. A.
The transport problem has been the
the missing link in the chain that the
Y. M. c. A. has woven about the boys
in khaki or in the navy, and it has
been a source of considerable worry
to the war work council. However
this worry has been eliminated and
now the secretaries are being placed
on every transport that sails from
our shores They have met with great
success in the test cases that have
been made recently and the value of
the war department has asked that
this work be continued. This leaves
nothing missing as the Red Triange
man is now found on the trains carry
draft men to camp, in the camps in
this country. on troop trains going to
port of embarkation, on the trans
ports. In the training camps of France
and England and in all camps in these
countries, thus making the "Y" follow
the flag and the soldiers wherever
they go.
The transportation bureau of the
War Council is authorized to place
two secretaries on each transport
whose duties is will be to make the
voyage of the soldiers both comfort
able and enjoyable and to provide
games, musicals, moving pictures,
stage entertainments, furnish writing
materials and stamps and many other
things that the soldiers needs. This
work is no romance. 1t challenges
a man to show his full ability, courage
and devotion to the cause of assisting
the soldiers. 1t means hardships, I'm
pleasant tasks and dangers but at the
same time offers an opportunity for
service that con at equsled nowhere.
