full $4,000 war fund is needed by
Van Buren, county to meet its war
pledges and war activity allotments,
and steps should be taken at once to
collect the full amount from each sub
scriber unless there is some mighty
good reason why the same cannot be
paid. 1t is unfair, unjust and unpatri-
otto to allow some to shirk finan-
cial obligation of this kind, while his
neighbors who are less able to pay
then he, come across to the limit of
their subscription.

WITT & co. TO SELL STOCK TO EMPLOYEES AT PAR, Sl00 SHARE

Every 'employee of Swift & Com |any is to be given an opportunity E become partner in the business, ecording to an announcement made y officials of the company today. fistribution of a portion of the stock |ow held in the company's treasury to be made at par ($1O0) to every fnployee who has been on the pay 'll for six months.
 The 1919 Employees Stock Savings Ian, as the scheme is known, pro- des that any employe, from office or essenger boy in the plant to the ghest executive, may purchase these ares at a price far below that at hich the stock is quoted on the stock changes in the country.
 Under the plan provided, the stock ay be paid for by the employe on basis of $10.00 per share down and dollar week per share to be de- Icted from his salary. If the em- oye is paving for Liberty Bonds, he ,y have shares reserved for him and begin payment until after he has mpleted his Liberty Bond payments. The amount of stock to be allotted each employee will be fixed accord to wages or salary, ranging from e CD share to five (5) shares each,
 follows:
 eekly Salary Entitled or Wage to Shares D to $20 I to S30 2 b to $40 8 0 to $50 4 yer $50 5
 'We believe that Swift X Company Il greatly benefit by this plan of ;tlibution", said MT. L. F. Swift, esident of the company. "We want employees to have an active in- est in the business and to feel that ey are really part of it rather an mere wage earners. There is
 reason why every person on the y roll of Swift & Company should
 be partner in the business, and
 believe that by this method we be giving them good opportun-
 to become identified with it in closer way than that of being on payroll.
 We now have, under our Elm |yes' Stock Investment plan, more m 5000, employees who are share ders, This plan has been in opera n for number of years and pro- les that stock is to be sold to em- yees on the basis of 10 per cent vn and the balance over a period two years. The employe purchasing this way pays the market price for
 shares. Under the 1919 Elm yes Stock Savings plan he will se- e shares at par. There is not an office boy in the 1pany who will not be given an op- tunity to become a partner, pro- led he has been in our employ for eriod of six months. There is only thing which we ask of those who chase stock on this plan, and that hat they do not purchase it merely | a speculation but as permanent estment."
