VICTORY LOAN IS TRULY A THANKSGIVING LOAN
(By Carter Glass, Secretary Of the Treasury

With our man power practically in
tact. with our towns and factories and
farms pndamaged should we be cowed
by monetary obligation lighter far
than the one France faces unafraid2
II is incomprehensible TO me that any
of the men who gave their sons so
gladly and so proudly 10 their country
in its hour OF peril should turn 50
quickly to cold and calculating con
temptation OF the dollar
do not believe that the plain people
OF America either are fearful OF the
future or distrusttul of their govern
ment. When the next loan is offered
have every confidence they will un-
derstanl its necessity and viii gladly
meet It's requirements
Plain fathers and mothers through
out the land have not so soon ceased
to be thankful tha. the ending OF the
war has restored their sons to them.
Sight never should be lost OF the fact
that Americas war debt is substan
TALLY all owed 10 the American people
Money TO meet the interest charges on
it and eventually 10 pay off the princi-
pal will fiow back TO the sources
whence IL came. i national debt OF
this character is NOT burden TO Grip
pie future business.

The coming issue OF government,

Liberty Loan. Ii seems 10 me il might
we'll BE- termed the Thanksgiving
Loan, for il ever people had cause
for thanksgiving we are hat people
Consider II the war had lasted an
ether year what would have been our
state. Instead of $4,000 dead we likely
would have had hundreds OF thou
sands. In time we might have eaualed
the record OF France, with her two
million slain And yet SOM of us
grumble because the government must
spend further money to maintain the
comfort and bring home in safety
those boys whose lives were spared
Congress is writing of the books
SIS .OO0000,0O0. expenditure OF which
had been authorized and which would
have had to be expended. with bill
lions of other dollars, had the war gone
on another year. We all are glad. of
course. that 1t is not necessary to
spend these additional billions but
had il been necessary the spending OF
them siill would not have brought the
nation down to rlin.
We still would have been far behind
France in the amount Of our debt,
compared to wealth and population.
