Daily Must Be Subscribed
in Nation to Go Over Top

Victory Loan workers throughout
the nation yesterday began in deadly
earnest efforts to raise in the final
six days of the campaign the major
part Of the funds sought by the Sec
retary of the Treasury.
Statistics announced last night at
national loan headquarters showed
that in the first twelve business days
of the eignteen-day drive only $780,
100000, or 40 per cent of the coun-
try's quota of $4,000, 100000, had been
subscribed. In the New York district
the figures indicated even moro strik-
ingly that the peak of the load would
have to be carried in the closing days.
Only $410,919,900, or 30.4 per cent Of
the districts quota of $3.50 900, 900
was subscribed, and in New York City

New York ranks tenth among the
twelve Federal Reserve districts. The
St. Louis district, which leads the way,
is the only one which is not travelling
behind schedule. In the first two

WASHINGTON, May 5.-Charges that
discharged soldiers and sailors are
compelled to sell banners and buttons
to make living in New York were de-
MED to-day by the Department of La
Dor.
"Men engaged in this practice are
frequently civilian beggars masquerade
ing in uniforms. or else discharged SOL
diers who do it from choice and not
from necessity" said a report made to
Secretary of Labor Wilson from his in
vestigaton and inspection service.
This report" said a Department of
Labor statement, "shows that button
selling is a lucrative business. Many
men arrested by the military au-
thorities admit having made from $40
to $25 day selling badges and ban
ners. One man, who was asked by an
investigator if he would like Job,
laughed at the investigator and said:

men was immeasurably raised by the
knowledge that the soldiers depend
ents were amply provided for by gov
ernment insurance and family allot-
ments. The Victory Loan must sue
ceed in order ia make that trust good"
Business men will find it wise in
vestment to help get the loan finished
so liquidation of the government war
debts may be speedily accomplished,
declared Mr. McAdoo.
Loan to Insure Prosperity
"a year ago, when the Germans all
but won an rretricvable victory" he
said, "no man but was willing to pay
any price for the peace which we now
have. 1t only remains to clear the
financial atmosphere and put business
on a firm basis, free from artiiciali-
ties, and this country will see the
greatest era Of prosperity ever known.
But the tradition of financial integrity
and unblemished credit started by
Alexander Hamilton must be upheld by
putting this loan over in the shortest
possible time"
In this connection, Mr.. McAdoo
pleaded for as wide distribution Of
bond holding az possible, so as not to
tie up the funds Of the banks, which
would then be in a position to finance
legitimate business and sound enter
prise.
"People do not yet realize how easily
this country got off," said Mr.. McAdoo.
at has been estimated that if the war
had continued six months longer at
least 100000 more American boys
would have lost their lives and 100000
more been wounded. In money, six
months more of war would have added
approximately 100000, 100000 to the
present debt of this country"
Speaking in the open air at Borough
Hall at noon yesterday Mr.. McAdoo
praised the work of the women bond
sellers of the country, declaring they
had set pace that even the men have
had difficulty in matching.

The American Federation OF Labor,
seeking to aid the Treasury Depart

workingmen of the nation to assure
the future stability and success" Of
the country by investing in the new

eve are not asked to give, but to
loan, our savings to the nation" said
the appeal. owe are not asked to forego
profit or lose such interest as the pr-
vate banks might pay for the loan Of
our savings. On the contrary, the ma
ton win pay a higher interest and give
Us far better security than any private
institution. In addition, the govern
ment will use the wage earners' savings
in behalf Of the interests of all our
people and to promote their general
welfare, instead Of enriching merely a
few who are already well-to- do.
Let us, therefore, express our feel
ings Of rejoicing and manifest our
gladness for the triumph Of our cause

standing solidly behind our govern
ment in peace as in war and assure It's
