Not only California, but
Oregon and Washington are
feeling the effects of the pres

garding immigration. Labor
ing classes are supposed to be
excluded by the agreement but
those who get by immigration
officers are frequently at work

the easy method for rapidly in

NO CHANGE IN LOAN CAMPAIGN

Notwithstanding repeated state
ments from Secretary Glass, the pro-
posed action of the Ways and Means
Committee of the House of Represen-
tatives in determining the types OF Sc
curities to be offered has apparently
left much misunderstanding in the
minds of many people regarding the
coming loan.
"The Treasury Department an
nounces that the Victory Liberty Loan
campaign will begin not later than
April 21st and must of necessity be
of a character similar in essential
features to those conducted in the
past through the existing Liberty
Loan organizations. The imperative
requirements of the Treasury cannot
be financed without such a campaign,
for it is of utmost Importance that
the securities offered shall be dis
tributed as widely as possible among
the American people.
"Only the form and terms Of the
securities to be issued remain to be
determined and depend upon the en-
abling legislation to be enacted by
Congress, but, whether bonds or notes
are finally determined upon, the total
amount will be so large that it is
absolutely essential that the widest
possible measure of distribution be
realized.
"Surely all who believe in the prln-
ciples for which the war was Waged
and on account of which such tremen-
dous sacrifices of lives and treasure
have been made. will appreciate the
necessity Of properly meeting the
financial commitments Of the govern
ment made during the conduct of the
war.
director Mason and his associates,
in conjunction with the Executive
Committee are planning many new
and novel features and already have
the coming Victory Liberty Loan cam
paign in this district splendidly Or
ganized. The army of Liberty Loan
workers who have done such effective
work in the past are deeply interest
ed in the coming campaign and are
determined to see this final loan put
over in good shape in order that their
part of the war work may be credit
ably completed"

ADVISORY BOARD
WILL BOOST LOAN
"Home Rule" is Slogan Of
Pennsylvania County
Campaign

"HOme Rule" as principle OF
county campaigning for the Victory
Liberty Loan will be applied through
the Advisory Committee for Pennsyl-
vania, which has now been organized
on the group plan.
The Advisory Committee Of twelve
members, seven Of whom are the rep
resentatives Of seven groups of coun-
ties into which the Pennsylvania sec
ton of the Third Federal Reserve
District has been divided. Through
these group representatives the cam
paign requirements of the various
counties are being presented from time
to time to the Advisory Committee.
In this way the special needs Of
every county can be given full con-
sheraton and action taken to pro-
duce the best results in promoting the
sale of the Loan.
The group representatives have been
holding conferences with the chair
men, secretaries and publicity chair
men of the various counties at which
campaign details have been formulated.
