not distinguish between or.

strength and endurance which
they seek, simply because they
have taken the wrong form of

Therefore, physicians men,

Anti-Fee Bill Involving Large
Counties Knocked Out By Court.

The authorization Of the Victory

In the final and greatest of the
campaigns for finances to pay up
the expenses incurred in winning
the world war. For some days
there was an outward fear that
there might be some hitch over the
passage Of the bill, but all this was
set aside on March 2 when the
Senate, by over whelming vote,
passed the measure.
Under the provisions Of the bill,
according to Washington dispatches,
the United States Treasury shall
sell s7OOO,000,OOO Of new short
term notes and $l,000,000,000 for
advances by the War Finance Cor
poration in extending American
Foreign commerce.
With the passage Of the bill by
Congress the necessary machinery
throughout the United States was
inaugurated to make the large loan
the most popular in the world.
Previous campaigns for bonds and
and notes were for the purpose of
buying munitions and supplies. All
Of the machinery was going at the
highest rate of efficiency in the
history Of the world when the
Teutonic power capitllated in
decided defeat.
The present campaign for the
sale of short notes is to bring home
tie boys, and otherwise straigthen
out the tremendous financial re-
sponsibilities that have been incur.
red in winning the war. The Pres
ident and other government ofiici-
ais have been called for the funds
not only to meet obligations which
must be met. but also to demon
strate to the world that universal
democracy is as popular in peace
as II was as an object lesson in
war.

charge Of the various campaigns
