Secretary Glass Appeals to People 70
Pay if Cheerfully.

Secretary Glass appeals to the
to the American people to pay cheer
fully the higher war taxes which went
into effect Tuesday with the signature
by President Wilson Of the new
revenue bill. He refers to it as a
ssvictory tax" to bear the cost OF a
war which has brought "the ineffable
boon Of peace. !"
Taxes which become operative at
once include those on liquor, tobacco,
soft drinks, so-called luxuries such
as automobiles, pianos, candy, chew
ing gum, sporting good sand slot ma
chimes; capital stock Of corporations,
brokers, amusement places, taxlcabs
and other special businesses,

war must be paid for," !" Secretary
Glass said:
tsIt IS a shallow kind Of patriotism

feminine sweetness and highly cul-

prising shopgirl, who has worked her
self up to the position of head sales
man in the suit department Of an
old-fashioned drygoods store, she
fills the role nicely, balancing be

from it in vernacular. The love story

VIcToRY LIBERTY BONDS.
Another Popular War Loan-cam.
paign to Bea lpril q.

Recent news dispatches from
Washington seem to have created the
impression in some quarters that the
Treasury Department has decided not
to float another Liberty Loan.
These reports were based upon the
proceedings Of the House Ways and
Means committees when treasury
representatives appeared to lay be-
fore that body plans for future war
finances. The secretary Of the treas
ury asked for authority to issue short
time securities instead of bonds
which would mature IN ten, twenty or
thirty years.
The fact that a new form of Sc
curity may be offered does not
change the plans for the Victory.
Loan. There will be another popu-
lar war loan, beginning not later than
April 21 A nationwide campaign,
similar to those conducted for the
sale of previous bond issues will be
put on in every state,t county and
city in the United States. The re-
auirements Of the Treasury Depart
rnent are imperative and cannot be
net without such a campaign.
The forms and terms ohsecurities
Ito be offered remain to be determin-
led. Whether they will be timed to
mature in five years or to run for a
longer period, it is absolutely essen
ftial that the widest possible measures
lof distribution be realized.
The Liberty Loan organizations
have pledged their uhfed support in
order that the Victory Liberty Loan
may be sold to the people. The
Treasury Department is depending
| zpon these workers to float the loan.
This his .is the last campaign the existing
yoluntaef army will be called upon TO
wage. There should be no relaxation
of effort now. Every American
should get behind the Victory Liber-
Ity Loan and make it the greatest Of
all war loans.
