ARE YOUR TAXES HEAVY?
They Would Be Heavier If the Victory
Loan Failed.

Probably every reader Of this paper
finds his taxes a bit higher than he
likes to pay. Thousands OF them have
been struggling for the past few weeks
to make out reports on income taxes
to the government. and have found
that six per cent takes pretty heavy
slice out of what was Isft over on New
Years day. Many of you had to Dor
row money to pay the taxes.
But this tax is nothing to what all
of us will have to pay if the Victory
Loan fails to go over. Uncle Sans
war bills must be paid. He prefers to
borrow the money from us and pay us
back later on.
But if he can't borrow it, he must
take tin the form of taxes.
It's like the difference between rent
ing house for 10 years or buying it
on the installment plan. In one case,
You wind up with thick bundle of
rent receipts. In the other, ycu have
q deed to your home.
Isn't it better to lend your money to
the government at a fair rate Of in.
terest than to pay it out in taxes,
which never comes back
That's worth considering when the
time comes to invest in Liberty Bonds
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1919-05-09
YOU CAN CUT INCOME TAX
subscriptions to Victory Loan Will
Tend to Reduce Taxation.

Uncle Sam unwittingly put out one
of the best arguments for subscrip
ton to the Victory Liberty Loan when
he sent around TO us early this month
out blanks for the income tax reports
Did you sit up and take notice when
you had figured yours out? Did it
startle you?
Large as it was, it would have to be
bigger if you and your neighbor had
not bought literally of the Liberty
Bonds of the past issues.
And if you want it to be smaller
next year you and your neighbor must
subscribe just as Literally as you pos
sibly can to the Victory Liberty Loan
when the drive opens this month.
1t is plain as can be to you after
little thought on the income tax
blank. The war debts have to be paid
If they are not paid out of loans they
will be paid out Of taxes.
And you didn't notice anything in
that income tax blank which said the
government would pay you interest or
give you back what you paid.

Secretary Glass Warns
Against Bond Scdipers

Secretary of the Treasury Carter
Glass has issued the following state
ment. which is of interest to every
Liberty Loan and War Savings
worker:
my attention has been directed to
the activities of INSCRIPTIONS persons
who have been operating extensively
throughout the country and who are
swindling the owners of Liberty Bonds
and War Savings Stamps by purchas-
ing these securities far below their
actual worth.
"These swindlers get the attention
OF security holders by publishing ad-
vertsements calculated to make the
unsuspecting believe that the highest
market price can be secured for his
bonds through the agency of the ad
vertiser. Such Is rarely, If ever, the
case. Records Of transactions of this
character, brought to the attention Of
the department Of justice and tho
treasury department prove conclusive
ly that these swindlers take every ad-
vantage of bond owners who are
forced into their clutches by paying
the lowest possible price which the
owner will accept-and generally far
below the actual value of the bonds.
Il regret to observe that many
reputable newspapers are being vic
dmized by accepting the advertise
/ ments of these swindlers and l appeal
to all newspaper pub. ,shers to scruti-
nize very carefully the character of
; individuals who use their columns to
offer to buy Liberty Bonds and War
| Savings Stamps. l believe that it is
the duty Of publishers to protect their
readers against INSCRIPTIONS adver-
Users.
Other swindlers endeavor to trade
worthless articles or securities OF lit,
tie value for Liberty Bonds and ap-
peal to patriotic publishers to assist
IN putting an end to this practice.
NThe treasury department will take
such steps as are possible under the
law to protect the interests OF Liberty
Bond holders, and will use every
means at its command to bring to jus
tice all who seek to defraud the people
who have so periodically assisted in
winning the war by investing Their
savings in Liberty Bonds and Wal
Savings Stamps.
Owners of these government secur
tiles should under no circumstance
part with them unless necessity com
pels, and then they should deal only
, with reliable banks, trust companies
banking institutions and others whose
reputation for integrity is beyont
question. If 1t is necessary to sci
. Liberty Bonds, the highest market val
ue should be received.
. '"The treasury department win wei
. come information concerning the OF
Grafton Of these swindlers in any par
. of the country"

APPEAL SOUNDED
BY CHURCHES TO
REACH SLACKERS
VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN WILL
BE THE ACID TEST OF TRUE
PATRIOTISM.
MUST BE welded OUT
Excuses Should Not Be Accepted
From prones in the Final
Campaign.

Like the poor, we always have the
siackers with us. Though the war is
over the Stacker still abounds in more
or less numbers. He is discovered in
the ranks of business, politics, re-
ligfon and wherever people are trying
to respond to the call Of duty.
A prominent st. Louis churchman
and leader in religious life has hit the
nail on the head by the following
crisp sizing up of the situation:
Il know that the Victory Liberty
Loan will be the test and proof OF
true patriots. Every one of them will
subscribe. Others-slackers-w ex-
cuse themselves by hard times, sick
ness, no need now that the war is
over and a hundred other excuses
they will be able to give for their
slackerism.
sit Is a well known fact that the
church fs not a Stacker oganization-
anything in the world but that. Yet,
like all other institutions, few slack
CTS win creep in and seek to be car
ried right up to glory, without having
served or paid the price, They are
attached to the church, and they
cannot be unattached The church
Ia too generous to turn the poor
shippers out to starve.
1.-The same kind of folks will be
little and narrow in their snbscrip-
lions to the Victory Liberty Loan. 1t
is to be expected. T. is to be pre-
sumed that they have hearts some
where, but you cannot pierce the hide
of q Stacker to reach the heart. Let
him remain until the great harvest
and the Lord of the harvest will take
care of the toughness Of his hide"

BEST INVESTMENT KNOWN
Last Liberty Loan Has All the Eie-
ments That Appeal to a True
American.

BUY for love Of country and to in
sure future prosperity" Uncle Sam
will say to the people of the United
States when the sale of the Victory
Liberty Loan notes (short term
bonds) begins on April 81.
This is the last Liberty Loan drive
and has truly been given An appro-
pirate name-Victory Liberty Loan.
To every true American this name
will strike home. This loan is one or
the obligations that come to the vic
tors. While President Wilson and
the peace delegation are in France
looking after the worlds obligations,
it is not fair that we here at home
should, in our way, look after the
great debt of gratitude we owe our
boys in blue and khaki.
Although the actual fighting is over,
the Government is stiIl under a tre-
mendous expense. All of the money
raised in previous Liberty Loans has
been expended and the Government
has been Obliged to borrow from the
banks. Much is yet to be done, which
will mean the necessary expenditure
of more money.
Our forces overseas must be main
tanned; the wounde must be rehabili-
tated and the men must be brought
back home. In addition to other ex-
penses, this means a tremendous ex-
penditure. A large part of the money
loaned to the United States during the
coming Victory Liberty Loan drive
will be used 10 care for the wounded
men and to bring back the boys who
went across the water that we might
be victorious.
In addition to the patriotic view
every person should take when ap-
preached during the campaign, to buy
a Victory Note. 1t should be borne in
mind that the purchase is the best in
vestment possible. Financiers con-
cede it to be the safest security, and
the rate OF interest will be attractive.

AID FROM FARM WOMEN

The women Of one of the rural dis
tricts of Tennessee organized during
the Fourth Loan and pledged the state
chairman of the Woman's Liberty
Loan Committee the profits from the
sale of one days butter and eggs each
week to buy Liberty Bonds. The state
publicity chairman passed on this plan
to each county in the state and asked
each Sunday school in the rural dis
tricts to adopt this method. In this
way thousands of dollars we're invest
ed In bonds.
