PAY YOUR DEBTS

On New Years eve the cost of the
war to the United States stood at $22,-
000, 100000. Practically all of this
money had been raised by taxation
and by the Liberty loans. The entire
amount which had come into the
Treasury up to that time for war pur-
poses had either been spent or had
been ear-marked for specific bills.
Since the middle of November when
the armistice was signed the govern
ment has been borrowing at the rate
Of $60O,000,000 every two weeks to
meet its war obligations. At this rate
It will have obtained from the banks
OF the nation from four to five billions
of dollars before the beginning of the
fifth Liberty Loan April 81.
The people OF the United States,
through their representatives In Con-
gress, voted for the expenditures which
made necessary the borrowing of these
huge sums. The government In antici-
patton of patriotic support from the
country in raising the Victory Liberty
Loan has already paid the bills. In
all Justice and honesty the people of
the United States will not fail their
government and will finish the Job by
oversubscribing the last popular war
loan by an even larger percentage
than they did the four which have
gene before.

u. TO GUARD
BOND HOLDERS
FROM CROOKS
Asks for Names of Persons
Trading Worthless Stock
for Liberty Bonds

The United States govern lent has
begun determined fight against Lib
erty Bond swindlers to protect the
people who periodically responded to
the call for funds to support the war.
All persons who are sent literature
or are approached by dealers per-
suading them to part with their bond
holdings for what are considered spec
ulat.ve or doubtful securities have
been asked by the government to send
the names and addresses of the COM
panies to the Federal Trade Commits
sion, Washington, d. G..
The Federal Trade Commission will
call for reports in proper cases and
the Federal Trade Act provides that
any company or person making q
false report to the commission will
be heavily fined and imprisoned. The
commission points out that the small
est holder can obtain the same price
as the shark and that all the expenses
of running the fraudulent business of
the illicit dealers must be borne by
the holder of the bonds.
The government by a successful
campaign at this time hopes to con-
vince prospective buyers of the Vic
tory Loan that it is ready to make
every effort to stand behind holders OF
government bonds.

UNIFORM LAWS AFFECTING

At meeting in this city last week at
the headquarters of the Federal High
way Council 1t was decided to incorpo.
rate the recommendations of the Trailer
Manufacturers Association Of America
in the uniform traffic bill in process OF
formation for more than year.
There has long been widespread de-

to make such regulations uniform

ment In highway TRANSFORMATION that
very few states license them o. have
ton. Within the last year or two
Massachusetts. Connecticut, Pennsyl-
vania. Indiana. Michigan. Illinois,
Wisconsin. Texas and California have
enacted some trailer legislation. but
il was evident that the legislators
were unfamiliar with the types Of
trailers in service, the ways in which
they are used and the probable future
development along this line. -
Three Reasons for Desira bility.
1t was deemed desirable by the
trailer manufacturers, for these rea-
sons. to offer constructive suggestions
for legislation that would insure pro-
lection of improved highways and
safety to users thereof without oper-
ating to retard the development. Of
now and economical means Of trans.
portation Of great benefit to the whole
public.
The recommendations, as approved
Mt the meeting last week. provide for
registration Of trailers and semi
trailers, fix annual fees at Is cents per
100 pounds gross weight of trailer,
body and rated load capacity on
pneumatic tires. IS cents on solid rub
Der tires and IS cents on iron or steel
tires.

WOOLENS FOR WINTER
APPROVED BY FASHION
London Arbiter Says They Must Be
Heavy and of, Extremely
Fuzzy Variety.

LONDON. November l Correspond
ence of the Associated Press).-Dame
Fashion has set her stamp of ap-
prevail on woolens for this winter.
for no other reason apparently than
the very high cost of such materials.
The most woolly of jumpers. jackets,
hats. stockings, scarfs, gloves and
nearly every other article Of women's
and mems apparel, which may be
made of wool. are in great demand
at increased prices Where actual
wool is used, it must be heavy look
ing of the extremely fuzzy variety.
Where it IL not used other materials
must be made to appear as woolly as
possible. u .~a .~
Except by those with whom costs
are necessarily considera ton. the
Forthcoming season OF woolens Is
cordially welcomed. 1t is regarded as
a becoming fashion and rather
change from hardness of line and ma,
teriaIs which can only be worn well
by the very young.
