WHISPERS ABOUT
4 BANKER S LOAN
SHOULD Be HAL TED
EVERYBODY MUST PARTICIPATE
OR CREDIT or COUNTRY
WILL SUFFER.
MEET URGENT WAR BILLS
Money in Financial institutions Re-
CURED For Transacting ordI-
nary Business.

Doubtless the banks Of the United
States could swing the Victory Liberty
Loan over without exhausting them
selves. But such astrain put upon the
banking and credit machinery of the
country would be felt for years.
The money in the bank is in con-
slant use. 1t is needed in financing
the everyday transactions Of trade,
In starting new businesses, in extend
ing lines of credit to established con-
Germs, in keeping trade and industry
on the move.
The money for the Victory Liberty
Loan should come out of the everyday
savings, the SURPRISES of the workers,
the salaried and professional people of
the country.
The man with his own business, the
iarmer the average man, 1t is up TO
him to subscribe every dollar he can
to the loan.
The whisperings that this is to be
a bankers Loan continue. No one
knows this to be as false as do the
bankers. A Liberty Loan such as the
United States has been raising re-
quires the cooperation OF everybody
in the country.
The wealthy classes and the banks
cannot raise it by themselves without
straining the usual credit resources
beyond the limit and causing financial
conditions that will react in every
part of the nation.
We don't want anything like that
in this country. We want the war I'm
ished and the bills met and we want
to get back to normal production and
distribution. That is the why of the
Victory Loan.

GOOD ROADS
Townsend Bill Provides Business-Iilss
Management For Construction
OF Highways.

'AThe Townsend bill creating Fed
eral Highway Commission, consisting
of five members, provides businesslike
management for the construction Of
our national highways and is wor-
thy example of craftsmanship applied
to our highway problem said R. E.
Fulton, Vice President of the Inter-
national Motor company, manufac-
turers of Mack Trucks. Senator
Townsend has shown a practical
grasp of the situation and should be
supported by every citizen who be-
lieves that our highways should be
improved in a scientific manner I'M
der business like management. In
the next few years billions of dollars
will be spent in the Improvement of
our state and national highways. The
people should insist that this money
be spent in way that will insure
permanent returns, and not repre-
sent a big loss few years hence.
another feature of the Townsend
bill is that it co-ordinates our high
way construction and makes the high
ways of various states part of an in
tegral system, instead of separate or
isolated units which are not Efficient
ly connected up to serve the country
either in time of peace or in the event
of war.
"With commission such as that
proposed by the Townsend bill, roads
would be built on the basis of their
present requirements, plus what
might be reasonably expected of them
in the future. There is no other way
to build highways and not waste the
peoples money. Our national high
ways must be of such durable type
of construction and such width of sur
face as to effectively meet both pres
emit and future needs. This is one of
the basic principles of the Townsend
bill.
''Not only the construction of the
loads under the Townsend plan, but
he financing as well, will be on
sound business basis, similar to that
If public utilities corporation. Tax
payers and others who are interested
n the economical spending of the
peoples money for better highways,
md genuine guarantee of better
transportation conditions and lower
.ost of living, should make their SEN
iment known, as the bill comes up
n the next session Of congress. A
ligest of the Townsend bill and con-
rast of its plan will be mailed free
lpon request by the Highways Com
nittee of the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce, Washington,
