WHAT YOUR MONEY
 DOES FOR U. s, SOLDIERS

Nine large cities with the help of two small ones in the Second Federal Reserve District had, at the close of the first half of the Third Liberty Loan drive on April 19, subscribed S28, 300, $50. This sum is sufficient to supply the American army in Europe with 100 monster 12 inch guns, con- plete ordnance plant, 100 tanks, hos pitals containing 1000 beds each, 1 cargo ship of 10000 tonss-and 100000 8 inch shells.
 The subscriptions were: Buffalo, $6,93o, $50; Rochester, $4,987, 300; Utica, $2,649, 800; Albany, $4,31O,750; Newburgh, $1,788, ,75O; Yonkers, ST. 02T,050; Morristown, N. J., S, 2,439, 900; Paterson, N. J., $2, ,4e4, ,750; Bridgeport, Conn. $1 1,e97, ,250; Rhinebeck, $6o,800; Salamanca, $126,150. The total of these Liberty Bond loans was S2S,- 5O0850.
 These cities have only half con- pIeted their Liberty Loan efforts. It is a fair presumption that when the final figures are in they may have doubled the $28 $500 $50. But the money already subscribed could be ex- pended to supply the following equip ment:
 1oo12 in. guns@$so,Ooo sSOoo,Oo0 1ordnance plant .... 100000 100 tanks@$25,O 900 ... 2,500,eO0
 hospitals with 1000
 beds ch0$5O0,O0O 2,5OO,OO0 10000 ton cargo ship 100000 POO, 900 6 in. shells@ @$5o..... 100000 Total .......$ BPS, ,5oO, 900
 From the subscriptions the sum of S850 would be left over with which the government could buy four mules to carry machine guns and ammunition, or three motorcycles for machine guns, or four submarine mines, or any num- Der of other indispensable things. If the cities mentioned succeed in doubling their present subscriptions their money could be used to dupd- cate the equipment listed or the entire sum could be expended for approxi- mately 114,O0O of the latest type of machine guns at $500 each.
