JUST FACTS.

The government Of the United
States is your government.
The government has given it's sac
red word to do certain things.
These things require the expendi-
ture Of great sums of money.
Your government must keep it's
word, must spend these sums Of
money.
This money can only be secured
now in two ways; either by taxation
or by borrowing.
Taxes are high enough, are they
not? Nevertheless. they will not
produce enough to meet the present
need.
Then. the only way the United
States can pay for peace is by Dor
rowing the balance needed. $4,5eO,-
600.
All right then, your government
must borrow $4.50O,0GO,0OO and
since other countries have no money
TO lend, it must borrow this money
in the United States and firm one or
two sources
Your government must borrow
from the banks and other financial
institutions or it must borrow from
:nillions of patriotic citizens.
If this mney could be borrowed
from the banks, would it be wise?
With all Of. their capital tied up in
Government securities, how could the
banks perform their normal fdnc-
lions of financing regular business
enterprises and development pro-
jects: Without being financed, how
could factories and business operate,
how could the country be developed,
how could labor. be emplyed. how
Guild people live? Think it over:
Very we'll then. there is one
course left open Your government
must borrow from you and from
every other individual up to each
ones limit Of lending.
Hence the Victory Liberty Loan
on April 21, 1919.--the loan of vic
tory, peace and thanksgiving.
These are just facts. Can you
see ally other way GU tot it? We cant

PINCHOT GIVES NOTICE TO OLD GUARD

OXFORD Plnchot, progressive Re-
publican. has given out 10 The coun-
try public letter which will Cause
the old guard Republicans 20 rise IN
and tale notice. His letter shows
that all Isl not harmony in the Re-
publican party.
Hungry as the old organization is
for victory and pining as it does
for patronage, there is still insur-
gency to be dealt with. The old
progressive lines are still being
drawn and old sores are being re-
opened. The issue between the for
ward-looker and the reactionary in
the Republican party is still adive.
1t will have to be faced when the
campaign opens next year. 1t will
have to be fought out when the
States begin the selection of dele
gates to the next Republican con-
Venticn. And unless the signs ara
all wrong, another battle royal be-
tween the two elements in the party
will take place when the ime comes
to nominate the next candidate for
president.
All Of which is clearly indicated
in Mr.. Pinchot's statement which
gives warning to the old liners that
they will not be allowed to dominate
the party. to name the next ticket
and to construct the next platform.
The Progressives, he says, will fight
such proc ram to the last ditch and
If they lose their fight he predicts
that the party Will he inviting 2, third

Pinchot insists that the country
needs Republican President. Hr
Gays that only Republican policies can
meet the demand Of the nation dur

A STORY WITH A POINT.

Senator Hitchcock in newspaper
article on the proposed league of
nations, deplores the effort to bring
the question into politics. He hon.
OTIS Mr.. Taft for the broad-lninded
stand he has taken in sustaining the
President and thinks he is much
wiser man then those small-minded
men Of his party who are trying to
make political capital out Of this
great matter, the most serious the
world has ever been called to con-
slider. Referring to this shortsight-
ed effort Of some Of the Republicans,
reactioEary leaders, Senator Hitch
cock says:
] am reminded a little of a story of
the man who went out to buy a
horse, found IN animal that seemed
10 satisfy him and agreed with the
owner on the price, but asked, Has
this horse any faults?" Well said
the owner, Yes, it has two faults. "
We'll, what are they?' well, the
first-let us be fair" the seller said,
i will tell you one Of the faults be-
fore you pay me the money and I
will tell you the other fault after
you pay me-" well the purchaser
said, that Is fair. Now what is the
first fault?" Well he says, the
first fault is that it takes me 50 l1ng
to catch him. 60 out into the pac-
ture to catch him and IT takes me
sometimes half hour or three-quar-
ters or a whole hour to catch and
bride him. 1t wastes a lot OF my
time "Oh, WE'LL the purchaser
said, is that alp Here is your mon
ey. Now. what is the other fauli?''
"Well,' he says, 1.-The other fault is
that after you do catch him he isn't
worth q damn"
Now. want 10 say. in all warning
10 Ties gentlemen who think hey
have a political issue in this great
World question Tor The beneht Of III
manity, they are likely 10 find that
that is tho kind oi horse they have
caught.

MAKE The VICTORY LOAN A LOAN
OF The PEOPLE

iaoH. L. D. FRANKLIN. Director, war
Loan Organization. Treasury Depart
ment. telegraphs:
In reaching determination as
TO the various characteristics of the
Victory Liberty Lon. particularly as
to the rates of nteres on he notes.
the limitation of the amount. and the
rejection Of oversubscriptions. the
Secretary of the Treasury had in
mnd particularly the great impor-
lance of insuring wide distribu-
ton Of these notes to real investors
SO that they could be paid for out Of
present or future savings and conse-
quently without creating any strain
on the banking reserves of the coun-
try.
THE terms as announced have met
with universal approval; but It should
be impressed upon every Liberty
Loan Committee in the country that
the real task before us is not to &C
complish simply by raising the speci-
fed amount Of money. If that had
been the sole object, it is probable
that the amount Of the loan would
have been fixed ut a larger figure and
the oVer-subscriptions accepted.
1T is most important at this time
with the dissolution OF the great vol
unteer Liberty Loan Organization af-
ter the close of this campaign, that
everything possible should be done
TO prepare the way for an absorption
or the overflow of government bonds,
which has been the CHIEF reason for
The decline in the price of the old is
sues, and the plan Of the Secrets ~
was adopted with particular refer
rnce to this situation.
1T is now the task of the Liberty
Loan Committees to conduct the
campaign in such way that this
resul: will be realized. We must nur-
sue the same intensive methods of
distribution as have been so success
FULLY used in the past. In the Fourth
Loan the Committees distributed to
over 22,000.0OO subscribers who
purchased. in amoun,s OF from $50
10 $4,000, inclusive, the sum of ap-
proximately 1000. 100000 of bonds.
If equally good distribution can be
realized a. this time, very large
1versubscription is assured The
Secretary has tried to devise a note
which shall be a choice investment
at the time OF its issue and which
will maintain its market. Having
done this, it is now up to the Lib
erty Loan Committees to complete
the work.
1T should again be emphasized
that it is of the utmost importance
that subscriptions for these notes
should be obtained from the public
and not from the banking institu-
ti0ns where reserves should be left
free to take care of the commercial
needs Of the country, particularly
during this period Of readjustment
from wartime production to peace
time production. and also to care for
any short-term borrowing which the
Treasury Department may need to
make in the future.
"Attention should be called to the
fact that this is the last Liberty Loan
and hat those people. who had here
tOfore limited their subscriptions to
the amount which they could pay for
in six months time because of the
probability OF another Loan within
that period, can now more readily af-
ford to obligate themselves for a
longer period Of time.
Let this be truly loan of the
people, A loan of Victory, loan Of
gratitude.'

Continu-

the party organization Continu-
ing Mr.. Pincnot says:
The Old Guard calls for harmony.
I am for harmony. but with the Re-
publican voters rather than with the
Republican bosses. Harmony headed
toward defeat has little charm for
me. Unless progressive Republicans
are willing to see harmony made I'M
possible and defeat made inevitable
by the nomination Of a reactionary
candidate out of touch with 1.-The
masses OF the voters they must take
action, and take it soon.
