Liberty Loan Subscriptions

The Treasury Department asks patriots to
consider the following facts relative to the next
Liberty Loan:
When you subscribe to Liberty Loan you
subscribe to the sentiment that the world must
be made safe for democracy and subscribe to the
fund that is to make the world safe for demo-
crazy.
You subscribe to the belief that innocent
women and children on unarmed ships shall not
be sent to the bottom of the sea; that women and
children and old men shall not be ravished and
tortured and murdered under the plea of military
necessity; that nurses shall not be shot for deeds
Of mercy, nor hospital ships be sunk without
