Deceiving the People.


Victory Loan drive, which has
gone we'll over the top as all knew
1T would, the same as all previ-
Gus war loans, perhaps criti-
clsm of the conduct of these
drives can he made without fear
of being indicted by the grand
jury for disloyaIty, or being
charged with being a pro- Ger
man sympathizer. The same tao
tics were pursued in the Victory
Loan as in all previous drives for
the Liberty Bonds. During the
closing days of the drive the
metropolitan press was filled
with press dispatches showing
the loan was dragging, and great
er efforts had to be made to meet
the sum demanded, which had
for its purpose the putting of en-
thusiasm into the work of the
strong arm squads who practical
ly intimidated people into making
purchases of bonds they could
ill afford to buy. Many country
newspapers took up the same
cry, and demanded the people
should purchase to the full limit
of the quotas assigned to the
city or county, without thought
of the hardships they were work
ing on people of limited means.
The Winslow Mail urged people
to buy bonds if they were able,
because they were the best Sc
curities for an investment, but
at no time did it join in the cry
to force citizens to buy without
regard to their financial ability.
Even in this little city scores of
people invested in bonds who had
to deprive themselves of even
the common necessities to make
their payments, and since have
sold their bonds at a discount to
realize funds to meet their every
day obligations.
In proportion to their wealth
the little wage earners of the
country manifested a better spir-
it of loyalty to their country than
the man of means. Without ex-
ception the wage Garner bought
to the limit of his financial abili-
ty, and while in amount it was
not large for each individual, he
came forward cheerfully, and
made sacrifices in his daily life to
meet his payments. The men of
wealth took larger amounts, but
not one burdened himself to the
point that it required any sacri-
flee to his comfort or pleasure.
When a corporation or some mil.
llonaire took block of bonds
the news was considered import
ant enough to be sent out by the
associated press as an example of
patriotism, but nothing was said
about the struggling mechanic
with his pittance of a daily wage,
whose family agreed to do with
out meat and coffee, in order to
buy a bond for $50 to do their
mite to carry on the war. 1t was
the lowly Nazarene who sensed
the true value of giving when He
said to his disciples that the wild
ow who cast in her two mites
had given more than all they
which have cast into the treas
ury, for they cast in of their
abundance, but she of her want
did cast in all that she had. even
all her living. However much
we try to conceal it. the fact re-
mains our people as nation are
worshippers of the golden calf,
and we measure men by their
rating in Wall street instead of
their true worth to society.

ENGLAND AWAITING
AUTOMOBILE DECISION
Fears Injury to Industry i
American Cars Are Imported
Without Restriction.

Automobile manufacturers in Great
Britain are awaiting with just as
much anxiety as the motor car max
ment regarding the importation of
motor vehicles. The industry in
this country has been endeavoring to
obtain a removal of the present re-
strictions, while the majority of the
British makers desire that if the re-
strictions are removed, heavy duties
be imposed as a protection to home
industries.
In commenting on what it terms the
decline of the British motor car in
dustry, the Field London says
that it is probable that the two fol-
lowing things will happen If there
is return to unrestricted imports;
1.-The American manufacturer Will
invade this market in such force and
completeness that a considerable sec
ton of it will have to be abandoned
to him, simply because, as matters
stand industrially. the British motor
car manufacturer cannot compete
of car the American industry pro-
duces in such huge quantities. The
established British motor car manu-
facturer has no intention to be
knocked out. no matter what the flSCal
policy of the government may be;
so. while some would confine them
selves to cars of a type not in com
petition with the American, others
would take their capital and ener-
gies to America, and either wholly
or partly produce there in order to
compete with the native American in
his own market as well as in the
British and colonial markets.
TT is said that some firms have
their plans ready for such an opera
ton. But no British manufacturer
wants to alter his present program il
that can be avoided, and so, pending
the fateful decision. they are simply
marking time. content to lose
modicum of business and be on the
safe side. rather than proceed with
manufacturing program which might
should political considerations induce
the abandonment or the serious re-
duction of the existing customs duties
on foreign cars.
I'VE do not believe that the Gus
toms duty will. or indeed can, be
abandoned. but the government gives
no sign, and doubtless will consult
the political eXigencies rather than
the wishes, desires. or interests of
the British manufacturer, both in ar
irving at a decision on the subject
and in selecting time to announce
it. Could it be given now we be-
lieve that it would at once start the
British motor industry on its de-
termined plans"
