Adoo to assist in the work of dis
tributing the first Liberty Loan and
ultimately became director of the
War Loan Organization in charge of
the Liberty Loan and War Savings
Committee throughout the country.
He served until the Victory Loan
campaign was brought to a success
full close, resigning June Is, 1919.
The special feature of his work
in organizing the Liberty Loan
drives which will make his services
of the utmost value to the nation
wide and Every Name campaign of
the church, is that it brought him in
to intimate touch with loan commit
tees in all parts of the country. He
has probably as wide circle of &C
quaintances as any man in Ameri-
ca among the earnest men and wom'
en- whose patriotic energy and zeal
made the national loans so success
full At the height of these cam,
paigns, Mr.. Franklin had an organi-
cation of over two million men and
women enlisted in the work, while
more than twenty million people be-
came purchasers of the Liberty
Bonds.
Like the scores of other promi-
nent laymen who in this movement
are sacrificing business interests to
promote the success of the cam
paign, Mr.. Franklin is earnestly in
favor of a larger participation by
business men in the work of the
church. He was quoted by Rev. Mr..
Lawrence.
81 think one of the greatest mis-
takes made in the administration of
the churches is in leaving their fl
nancial affairs in the hands of the
clergy. They are called to higher
duties than that of raising money
and money is the last thing they
ought to be compelled to think about.
1t is shame to have clergymen go

'Then he shan't scold me! Just
