HERE I5 GLORIOUS
 THOUGHT FOR THIS
 EASTER MORHIHG
IN AMERICAN HOMES IT IS No LONGER NECESSARY TO READ
 CASUALTY LISTS.
WE ARE CALLED TO ARMS
We Must Furnish Our Dollar As a Measure of Gratitude For
 Victory.

"Why seek ye the living among the dead?" was asked of the disciples on a memorable Easter morn some nine teen hundred years ago and the sound of the questioner's voice brought joy to the hearts of the disciples.
 In thousands of American homes to- day there is no longer need of seek ing news of the living in the daily casualty lists. The strain and worry of uncertainty has been removed from the hearts of thousands of American parents and in it's place has welled a spring of gratitude which must seek expression.
 Gratitude not only for the sons re. turn in good health aud with broad ened outlook, but for the return of the millions of other sons who shared the glorious work of making the world better place in which to live.
 Hostilities have ceased over there, but the call to arGjs is sounding ever here. The Victory Liberty Loan, the thanksgiving loan. the loan that is to pay for the great victory and wipe the slate clean is to be offered the people of the United States on April 21.
 Uncle Sam needs this money to pay for the vast military preparations nee- essary to defeat the Hun Our war preparations were at the high maTig of production when the Germans Gaye up To pay for tho war supplies con- tracted for, to bring the boys homo and to finance the period of readjust quiTe billions of dollars. We must furnish them as a measure of our gratitude that the war is to be paid for in American dollars instead of in valued American lives

WHICH APPEAL5-- ID GET INTEREST
 OR PAY TAXES?
TEE NATION OWES BILLIONS 20?
 WINNING THIS WAR AND :. MUST PAY TT.
IT IS A DEBT OF HONOR
The Victory Liberty Loan, the Last of Historic Series, Should Eniist
 Your individual Aid.

This country is thinking harder about taxes right now than it has in many years. It is pretty generally un- dersto0d that when the Government wants money that it has but two i'm portant ways of getting the needed funds. It can raise the tax rates, or it can issue bonds. Of the two meth taxpayers of the present to issue bonds. Also when the taxes are about as high as can be levied 1t is almost necessary to float a bond issue rather than to pile taxes upon taxes.
 The income taxes are not raising the money that was expected in some quarters. For instance it is the gen. eral belief in the cities that the farm CTS are wonderfully prosperous and vet but 14,000 filed income tax returns And there are more than 6,0o0,0o0 farmers in America!
 Others who are not swelling the in- come tax lists to any great extent are the men in the mechanical trades, an industry that has been receiving the highest wages ever paid.
 The failure of the. income tax scheme to raise the aAaunts expected has forced the Government to look further for the necessary money The extraordinary demands that will be made on the nations resources for the reconstruction period have made it necessary to float a Fifth or Victory Liberty Loan. The ordinary ways of money raising will not give the sums required even should their results greatly increase.
 =. -l4aalse' failure. of money raising by means of popular loans will mean the placing of consumption taxes on tea, coffee, hides, wool and other house. hold necessities. Raising this money by means of subscriptions to Liberty Loan is by far the easier way both for the Government and for the tax payer. He lets the country have his money, he gets the bond and the in- terest that accrues. As the years pass the strain of the war will lessen and a reserve of funds will be built up to take care of the Liberty Notes (short term bonds) as they fall due
 We have all been profiting by the funds raised in the earlier Liberty Loans. Paid out in wages in war plants, for foodstuffs from the farms or for materials used in war industry, most of the money has remained in the United States. What is true of these loans will be true of the Fifth It will aid every man and every busi- ness in America during the difficult after the war days.
