The great mass of people have

right attitude and it Is more import
ant now than eve before that we
should change our view point. The
fact that Government Savings Stamps
can be and are purchased by many
thousands OF people who are not able
to buy Liberty Bonds makes this form
of security of untold value to the Gov.
eminent. Right now the Government
needs large amounts of cash for the
payment Of debts and the advantage

proceeds of the Fourth Liberty Loan

chase of Savings Stamps at this time

tional direction. 1t was evident that
the campaign for the sale of these
smaller securities had been a sort OF
hit or miss affair, good, bad, or indif-
ferent, depending on the efficiency and
enthusiasm of local organizations.
Several months 6 it was decided to
put the sales organization of War
Savings Stamps in the hands of l..
B. Franklin. national director of four
successful Liberty Loan drives. His
official title thereupon became, Direct.
or of the War Loan Organization and
he was given national charge OF the
placing Of the forms of Government
securities mentioned above.
The Treasury Department delegated
to each of the twelve governors of
the Federal Reresrye banks the re-
sponsibility of building and putting in
to working order the necessary ma
chinery for the sale of all Government
securities in his district. The method
Of appointing these forces and Of or
ganizilig them most efficiently was
left to the judgment Of each bank gov.
crnor.
Governor Theodore Void of the
Ninth Federal Reserve District has in
turn delegated the work OF organizing
and directing the Government securi-
ties sales forces to the Central Com
mittee Of the Ninth District of which
A. r. Rogers. OF minneapolis is the
executive head. This is the committee
which has been so eminently sue
cessful during the last three Liberty
Loan drives and has placed the Ninth
District in an enviable position of
leadership.
Two Distinct Organizations.
Mr.. Rogers announces that the old
Liberty Loan organization, including
state. district, county and local chair
men and workers which numbers
nearly 10000 individuals will be kept
intact to prepare and carry through
the Fifth Liberty Loan drive which
will be made some time in April. Dis
tinct from this organization, yet a
part of it as far as district direction
is concerned will be the old War Saw
ings Stamp state organizations Of
Montana, Minnesota. North Dakota,
South Dakota, Northern Wisconsin
and Northern Michigan. These state
organizations will also be kept intact
as far as possible and will form the
nucleus of the Government Savings
Stamp Division Of the Ninth District
War Loan. Organization.
The personnel of the Ninth District
Wa Loan Organization that will have
supervision over the sale of these
Government securities during 1919 Is

Committee; Homer P. Clark, Vice

day. Any lack of results IA the past
has been due to the q that there
has been no central direction and no
well organized, continuous plan for
the sale OF these securities Az We
have planned the organization. which
WIN be directed after the first of jan
uary by Mr.. Rogers. we are certain
that results viii be obtained With
much less effort and without friction
which developed In some localities
during the past year.
The Treasury Department nt Wash
tngton is working out a complete and
scientific national campaign to In
duce thrift and the Investment OF saw
ings In Government securities. Our
district organization Will have the
benefit of the Governments work and
Will adapt and put into operation such
parts of the plan as meet the condi.
tions In this territory.
I'VE appreciate the enthusiasm and
loyal efforts OF the men and women
who have worked u%ntiringly to effect
the sale Of War Savings Stamps dur
ing the past year IN the various states
OF this district. We know that with
the experience they have had and
with the aid OF new direction and ex-
perience they will be able to accom-
plish very much more during the COM
ing months. While there is to be an
other Liberty Loan drive, 1t will be
necessary to- put more steam behind
the sale Of Government Savings
Stamps than ever before. The Gov
eminent expects to realize $4,000 600.
600 from the sale Of Savings Stamps
during 1919. This is more than twice
the amount sold during 1913 and indi-
viduals everywhere must realize that
the buying OF stamps is a paramount
duty"
Northwest Will Not Fail.
"The people Of the Northwest have
never failed to respond to any cali In
which their loyalty has been involved
and they will not fail now when asked
to raise their share of the money
needed by their Government to finish
the biggest job aver undertaken by
any people" was the way III which
Chairman Rogers expressed his faith
in tic outcome OF the 1919 campaign
for the sale of Government securities.
Continuing, Mr.. Rogers said; "If I
did not have entire faith in the loyal.
ty OF the people Of the Ninth District,

responsibility OF directing the war
