/ would like to call your attention
to a very unjust affair that is being
done in Government Departments
re buying bonds.
The department sends some one
around to take the name of those
who are going to buy bonds. All
will give their names when they have
no idea of buying, and get the same
credit as those that have bought
bonds since the first issue; they viii
even have the nerve to get a button
somewhere and wear it. l think there
should be some way to know through
the banks who pay in full for their
bonds. 1t seems to me all the de-
partments are thinking of is to get
the names to make the biggest show,
whether they buy or not. / know
men and women that earn big sal
aries and have never bought a bond.
There should be come way to show

have learned the necessity of saw

brought us the victory.-the will

money, to save coal, to save food.
The man, woman or child who has
learned to spend wisely and look
forward to the future, and to lay
by something which vii | help him
in an unforeseen emergency is not
only helping himself but is becom-

portunity afforded by our Govern

In the closing hours of congress
the different branches of the gov

became stubborn and unreason-
