That They Buy, Too

The entire Pennsylvania State
highway Department force of eight
thousand employes-equal to eight

in the drive for selling bonds of the
Fourth Liberty Loan. Commissioner
j. Denny O'Neil has directed a letter
to each division head, ass istant en-
glneer and county highway superin-
tendent, suggesting that they get in
touch with the chairman of the local
Liberty Loan committee and work
in harmony with him; also, that each
and every employe of all divisions of
the department be impressed with
the vital importance of making the
loan notable success. The commits
sioner especially requests all en-
ployes, not only to buy bonds them
selves, but to exercise all of their in
Huence and ability, in cooperation
with the local committee, in selling
Liberty Bonds to others. He said that
while all of us are not privileged to
go to France to fight, we can do our
duty right here at home and have a
splendid opportunity to show our

Tractors to Take Hold
Again Monday Noon on
Marsh Run Farm Lands

The winning tractors on Thursday
in the national contest which is in
progress on Government property ad-
joining the Marsh Run plant were an
nounced this morning as follows:
Parrett, International Harvester
Company, Case, Titan U. H. Coz !;
Waterloo, Frick. These machines
completed the task allotted them on
Thursday. Their records and those
of the nine tractors which did not
make good are printed in a separate
column in to-day's Telegraph.
1t was decided early this morning
that wet grounds made the tourna-
ment impossible to-day and the whole
program has been postponed until
Monday. Only one of the entries is out
of commission, namely, the Reed
tractor. The handler of this machine,
after making four rounds on Thurs
day, had a smash up and withdrew
from the drive.
Very precise instructions were is
sued to-day. at the Department of
Agriculture for operations on Monday,
and w. r. Douglass, statistician, was
hopeful that the road from the end
of the New Cumbe erland trolley line
to the battle-ground would be fixed
so as not to be terror for motor
cars.

1t has not been so long since a pa
rade of G., A. r. veterans would have
handed Wendell a real hearty laugh.
In fact, he Joshed all of the low

In fact, the only initials he used in
his business were c. Q. d. and l. ..

He never could understand why

convictions.
He panned all reformers and up
lifters.
The scathing comments he made

marching for equal huffrage!
He said the settlement workers

Any guy running for office was n

Anyone who became feverish in

The easiest trick in the world is to
dismiss with wave of the hand the
appeals of those who have been
classified conveniently as not worth
while.
Take the case of the Y. NJ. C. A.
Wendell mad lined up with con-
siderable faction which looked upon
this widely touted organization as
joke.
He knew that easy marks had
come across in large chunks to boost
the game and that each building was
a kind of denatured club, without
any shaking department or slot for
the kitty.
He had heard that the main hand
shaker at each of these salvation fac
tories was called the secretary, and
it was his lay to rope in Juveniles
who had weak natures and would
stand for the rollo stuff.
Even as the tall unmarried lady
with specs herds the helpless infant
class, so was the godly secretary sup
posed to round up and control the
pale faces who were shy on rational
instincts.
Wendell and a good many other
men about town between the ages of
is and so couldn't have been dragged
into one of these asylums with
chain and windlass.
When they were all set to jollify,
they didn't hunt up a morgue.
No investigation was needed to
convince them that the main grotto
of the Y. NJ. c. A. was draped in
black and had icicles hanging from
the chandeliers.
Probably the walls were covered
with verbotcns about breathing out
loud or bursting into a smile.

NJ ADOO PREDICTS
FIFTH WAR LOAN
WILL Be SUCCESS
Secretary of Treasury Says
Public Ownership of Rail-
roads is Question For Amer
lean People to Decide,
tsr ~oemne JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wrssl

New York, Dec i5.-William G.
McAdoo in an address here today on
the eve of his retirement as secretary
of the treasury, predicted the success
of the Fifth Liberty Loan and de-
clared that it was for a majority &C
the people to decide whether the ia.
tons railroads should be privately OF
government owned
Speaking at a union peace jubilee
held by the congregations of six lead
ing Episcopal churches Mr. McAdoo
asserted that in the first four loans
the people of America had displayed
"a spiritual, almost religious interest"
american spirit aroused ly this
fight for freedom" he declared, will
make the new loan success # the
subscribers have to wear tattered
clothes in order that the fighting
boys may be brought home and prop
erly cared for"
OF the railroads Mr.. McAdoo said:
taking over the railroads was a
necessity. l did not care whether the
government or private parties owned
them but when Uncle Sam needed
those railroads for the transportation
of troops and supplies everything else
had to give way and private owners
had, for the time being at least, to
step aside.
The question of governmental or
private ownership is a debatable one
and hardly suited to church discus
sion. What the majority of the Amer
lean people will say on the subject
must be accepted as being right. The
majority said they wanted a republi-
can congress and they got It, but still
| say that the American peoples wish
is right, even if am a democrat
After praising the selective service
act Mr.. McAdoo discussed the sol
diers' and sailors insurance bill, say
ing that the insurance money will be
paid direct to the beneficiaries and
there will be no necessity of going TO
congress, hat in hand, begging for
charity"
every justice will be done every
deserving soldier and sailor he add
ed, land he will be given generous
treatment by grateful nation, which
does not intend to let its brave lads

TEN intended to meet economic and
industrial conditions have been COM
pleted and will he put into operation
when withdrawal of the forces is con-
scented to by the high command.
After considering available ship
ping facilities and rolling stock in
Canada, the imperial ministry Of ship
ping and the Canadian war board
have concluded that the rate of return
can approximate 10000 men a month.
Close study of the military and &C.
onomic phases of rehabilitation re
suited in a decision to first return
men whose trade classification show
ed there was immediate use for them
in industry Preference is to he given
married men, the order of their re-
turn to be determined by tn length
of time in overseas service. Then
single men win be returned along the
same general lines.
Classification of the troops into oc-
cupational groups by the militia de-
partment was deemed advisable to
meet the requirements Of the labor
market in the various districts. To
return the men regardless of their oc-
cupation in civil life and demands OF
the labor market in their respective
districts would work a hardship upon
them as we'll as upon industry, Off
Gals decided.
Latest figures list 2S6.3O4 as the
number of Canadian troops overseas
An estimate of how these men will be
distributed among the various PROV
inces, based on the ratio of enlistment
in each province, follows;
ontario, 121,5OO; quebec, $500;
New Brunswick. 1850; Nova Scotia
and Prince Edward Island, 1880;
