COLLAR CURES i
ARMY FLYERS
BROKEN NECK
Surgeons Mend Lieutenant
After $500 Foot Fall and
He Flies Again

Tfere is a man in San Francisco
walking around with broken neck.
He is Lieutenant Charles M. Cummins,
of Richmond, Va.
Cummins was an army aviator.
While making flight at Gerstner
Field, La, in February, 1918, he Cell
2500 feet, fracturing the fourth, fifth
and sixth cervical vertebrae and dis
locating several other vertebrae par
TALLY.
After the fall he was sent to Letter
man General Hospital at the Preside
in San Francisco for treatment. Army
surgeons who are almost working mir
acles there in the reconstruction of
the war wounded finally fitted a metal
collar on the aviator to carry the
weight of his head. 1t worked-and
now Lieutenant Cummins Is walking
about apparently normal.
Only One of Many.
Lieutenant Cummins' case is only
one Of many, but it stands out because
of the popular superstition that man
can't live if his neck is broken. The
reconstruction surgeons at Letterman
are working on hundreds of cases
much more difficult than the flyers.
They are receiving men there daily
from the battlefields of France, whose
legs and arms hang withered and help
less and they are turning those men
olt, after months of special treatment
and patient mechanical manipulation,
able to use their arms and legs and
capable of making a living.
The cost, of course, is tremendous
when one takes into consideration the
fact that the same work Is being car
ried on in many military hospitals
Already Congress has appropriated mil.
lions of dollars to carry on the work
and millions more will have to be
made available for the cause. For it is
cause, this regeneration of the men
who gave their bodies to their coun
try.
cummins Flies Again.
Part of the money to be realized
from the Victory Liberty Loan will
be used for this job of reconstruction
or regeneration. Think of this when
you are making up your mind as to
how much of the loan you, personally
are going to subscribe.
Lieutenant Cummins made a flight
with his collar on just to convince him
self that he hadn't lost his nerve
We can't afford to lose our nerve on
dollar and cents proposition in the
face of the deeds of such men.

AMERICAN IDEALS
CASH and CREDIT
SUNK In new ERA
BY United States Senator Reed Smoos
of Utah.

Americas task is not over: her
woodwork still remains to be done.
great national in fact a great inter-
national duty, still confronts the Ameri-
can people. The cash and the credit
of the American people must be used
to finish paying for this war and to
pay for financing the peace that is here
in part and which is now in process OF
completion and confirmation in Paris,
where under the leadership of our
great President our country is imbed-
ding American ideals and American
principles into the very foundation of
new and better world.
mo American who loves his coun-
try and who loves humanity and JUS
tice and right can regard his sacrifices
at an end or his duty done. We must
pay for those things we bought or con-
tracted for to make our army powerful
and to give our soldier boys the best
care possible. We must bring these
boys home and restore them to useful
occupations In civil life. We must re-
habilitate the wounded, and train them
and fit them for useful occupations
not for making of nicknacks, but for
mems work, which men can do in
spite of loss of limbs or other perma-
nent injury. We must stand by our
associates in the war against Germany
and do our complete duty by them and
by the stricken. peoples of those coun-
tries who suffered rHaN German
hands.
Must Finish Work.
ITO do our national duty every man,
woman and child in America must
make every reasonable sacrifice. The
great work we have done and are doing
is worthy of every sacrifice. Our sol
diers have not died merely that we
might be safe from German DONNA
ton; they died for much more than
that They died for American prin-
ciples. world Justice and world liberty,
and that a better world should result
from their sacrifice We American
| 3eople must finish their work.
s'Money h giant essential for the
proper performance OF Americas duty
and this money must be furnished by
the American people. They simply
lend it to their government which gives
them In exchange securities Of unim.
peachable value bearing fair rate or
interest. Through the Liberty Loan
and through the War Savings Stamps
the United States offers every citizen,
however small his or her means and
however small his or her earning ca
pacity, the opportunity to have a part
In the nations great task TITS a
mighty poor American, in my opinion,
who let's this opportunity pass, who
leaves to others the sacrifice, and the
glory of Americas mission"

WAR STAMP SALE
WILL NOT CHANGE
NEW LOAN QUOTAS
Treasury Department Alters
Plan Announced Last
January

Victory Liberty Loan quotas will not
be affected by Thrift Stamp sales as
planned by the Treasury Department
the first of the year. 1t was announced
last January by Lewis B. Franklin,
director of war savings, that wherever
Thrift Stamp quotas were exceeded
the amount of oversubscription would
be taken from the coming loan quota
and that If the Thrift Stamp quotas
we're not reached the deficiency would
DE added to the loan quota.
Governor James X. Lynch of the
Federal Reserve Bank has Just
received a telegram from Washington
advising that the plan to adjust Vic
tory Loan quotas in accordance with
the sale of War Savings Stamps has
been abandoned. The reason given
was that some of the Federal Reserve
Districts were not reappo dionins
Thrift Stamp quotas.
Thi.it began long before meuey was
