Eab Eaibs>sss ten Gays ago, ard Was senr to
Camp Lee, where he received his dis
charge. and is now with his parents,

Unfortunately. there exists, appar-
emily, at this time, in Cambridge,
marked apathy in connection with
the Victory Loan; subscriptions are
not coming in as rapidly as they
should. Perhaps the end of the war
is responsible for this condition, but
if people will just stop for a moment
and reflect they will realize that the
money must be raised; in fact, the
necessity for raising the loan is
greater now than ever before, for it
this loan is a failure, the prestige of
the United States will surely suffer,
which may mean a very serious re-
action in business. The way to
avoid panics and business depres-
sions is to keep business going, fail
ure in this country to raise this loan
will mean that the people Of all the
world, Russia, Germany, France,
Italy, England, Japan. Austria, Hun
gary, and all other countries, will
understand that the people of the
United States have repudiated their
war debt, and the loss in business in
those countries that will follow such
a disaster will mean such a loss OF
business to American enterprises as
to bring about a fearful situation.
Other counties or the Shore are go
