WHOSE WAR WAS IT?

Was II Smith. the bankers war OF
Jones, the truckman's war? Was :
Labor's war or was It Capitals wa1S
Was II Autocracy's waT or was II Lii
erty's war? Whose war was Il?
Figure II out. Then sacrifice every
thing and subscribe to the Victory Lib
erty Loan. For II was The Peoples
War.
Il isn't paid for. II must be paid
for. The Victory Liberty Loan viii
pa for II. The people must buy
because II was their war. The people
are Smith and Jones, Labor and Capt..
tai.
II II wasn't the Peoples war, II
wasn't anybody's war. So don't say
''let the banks do IT," II was not the
banks war. You might as we'll say lt
was Jones war--let Jones buy the Vic
tory Loan. He would have as much
chance TO subscribe five or six billion
as Smith would.
The man who says "let the banks
do It," Is yellow. There arc about
100000 American lads over In Europe
who are sticking II through. They are
not saying let somebody else do IT,
It's the last loan. Play square.

POOR FINANCE

BY M. 8. WIIdmsn, Head Of the

Just about two years ago we began
to make war and stopped making q

other things only in limited supply
Railway construction came to a dead
stop. Equipment was worn out faster
than 1t was replaced All over the
country building operations we're sus
pended. In the North Atlantic states
alone the deficiency In building Is
estimated by the Department of Labor
to exceed $500, 100000. II the situation
all over the country is comparable to
this, the accumulated need for con.
struction now exceeds two billion dol
lars. Through a wide range of manu-,
features from automobiles to chewing

The emergency which led to curtail.

Of all classes OF people requires the

activity. Consumers want the goods,

ment. The heavy vur taxes call
for correspondingly large production.
while European reconstruction will
open the way for exports.
This resumption of enterprise, II we
embark upon II as we should, will
require bank loans on tremendous
scale. The high wages and high cost
OF materials will necessitate advances
proportionately greater than In the
past. To be available for this purpose.
the funds Of the banks must not be

SHAW DECLARES
LEAGUE MUST Be
MUCH MODIFIED
Says u. S. Must be Allowed
to Withdraw on Own
Initiative.

That the peace treaty and the
League Of Nations VIII never oe
ratified unless express reservations
are made that the United States can
withdraw without the consent OF any
other nation, is the opinion of Hon.
Leslie NJ. Shaw, ex-governor of the
state of Iowa
In an interview with a News Times
reporter, Mr.. Shaw, who debated the
government ownership of railroads
with DR.. Charles Zueblin at the
chautauqua Friday night, made the
following statement relative 10 rati-
fication Of the League of Nations:
Antiquities are the prime causes
Of war as well as of litigation. If
the constitution of the United States
had expressly provided that the sew
eral states might withdraw or had
made it clear that they could not
withdraw the Civil war would have
been avoided. 1t seems to me the
man is worse than an idiot who in
sists that the admitted uncertainty
in withdrawal from the League of
Nations shall be perpetuated.
This much is certain, the treaty
will never be ratified unless express
reservations are made that we can
withdraw without asking the consent
or approval of any other nation;
second that we can exclude from
citizenship or domicile any race as
well as any individual; third, that
we can impose for revenue or 70,
protection any tariff We please, and
fourth, that the Monroe doctrine
with all that it is understood to i'm
ply is expressly reserved from the
Jurisdiction of the League OF Ma
lions.
"'f these, as some insist, are al
ready safeguarded, the nations will
acquiesce and it will not be neces-
sary TO recommit the treaty. If OBJ
lections are 10 be raised to these
reservations by any nation the time
to have them raised is before the
treaty is ratified.
That each of these questions is
now shrouded IN ambiguity and un-
certainty is conceded by everyone.
Why insist that they shall be left
fruitful causes Of war If il be the
purpose 10 prevent war why not pre-
vent the causes Of war;"
