triotism this great financial achievement
would have been impossible. II
1.-THE 100000 investors that the bank.
ers knew were business investors.
They bought bonds as they bought
goods, for what they could make out
Of them. Treated as business the bonds
But treated as an act of patriotism each
succeeding Issue of bonds found wider
response.
The second Liberty bonds were taken
10y 100000 persons. who oversubscribed
the issue by "a per cent.
The third Liberty loan found 1885, $40
subscribers, and the fourth Liberty loan
was taken by 22,777,6s0 subscribers.
EXPLoDEs ANOTHER
COMMON MISTAKE.
Some people have made the mistake
OF believing the Liberty bonds could
have been kept at par IL the rate Of In
terest had been higher than Az per cent !;
II, for instance, 1t had been per cent
or per cent; but they failed to take
account OF the fact that no matter what
the rate of interest on Liberty bonds had
been, the price would not have remained
at par so long as the Government was
continuing to issue great quantities Of
bonds, and the amounts so issued were
in excess of the demand, or, in other
words, greater than, the market could alb
sorb.
Again, If the Government had issued
Liberty bonds at 8 per cent or per cent,
the rate OF interest on every other line
Of securities and on all credit transac-
tions would have been increased enor-

eve are financing the war out of the
personal incomes of people who never be-
fore had contributed directly to such an
end
1--WE were selling bonds to people who
had never before seen bond of the
United States Government, much less
owned one.
Instead of bonds issued in large units,
$500 and upward, as had been the GUS
tom IN dealing with bankers, we put
out bonds of 500 and $50.
1--WE made 1t possible for practically
every self supporting person to buy a
bond. And be it said to the everlasting
glory Of the American people that they
did buy the bonds, each according to
his or her means. SO enthusiastic, indeed,
did the people become over this great
patriotic enterprise that bankers and en-
ployers entered into engagements with
their patrons and employees to carry the
bonds for them until they were paid
for in weekly installments.
"As successive issues were put out the
Government was urged to raise, the rate
Of interest.
But we refused to be frightened by
an alleged scarcity of credits
1.-THE second Liberty loan, with only
partial tax exemption, was put out at
Az per cent to equalize the complete
exemption of the 31a per cent.
But / announced that the rate would
not be raised during the war, and It was
not.
THE Victory loan put out after the
armistice when the peoples minds were
turning to business again draws 4A per
cent. but the Liberty loans from the first
to the fourth remained at Az per cent.
But IL was necessary to do something
more than to offer bonds for the people

THE first loan was absorbed easily by
the money on hand.
But each succeeding load had to be

other organizations opposed to war from
the draft and Watson opposed the con-
ference report on the trading with-the-
enemy act
Watson failed to vote on a measure
giving all soldiers, sailors and marines
who are permanently helpless 500 a
month, nor did he vote on an arpropria-
ton for the salaries of the vocationai

He opposed an amendment providing
that no civil service examination be re-
quired OF wives OF soldiers or sailors APP

ment during the war while Harding
failed to vote.

was clearly our duty to appeal to the
whole citizenship.
''The people had answered the call for
soldiers. Could there be any doubt that
they would respond with equal alacrity
to call for their dollars?'
And so the loan was launched. Not
for one billion, as the cautious bankers
counseled, but for two billions; and not
at Az per cent, but at 315 per cent.
The result was a striking vindicati0n
of Mr.. McAdoo's judgment.
Instead of 100000 Investors, there were
over four million.
Instead of two billions, the amount
subscribed was s3035, 226 $50.
But that is not the whole story.
The people responded to the appeal
Of the Government as Mr.. McAdoo said
they would, but that appeal had to be
made in a way that would reach the peo-
pie, and it had to be made in language
the people could Understand.
1t was for this purpose that the great
bond selling organization was launched.
I'VE had two million volunteers" said
Mr.. McAdoo; two million men and
women and children. for the children
were no less interested and earnest in
their work than their elders

mougIy, with a corresponding injury to
the general economic and financial situa-
ton.
'The higher the rate of interest on
Government bonds, the greater would
have been the decline in value Of a.. IN
vestment securities held by individuals
savings banks and fiduciary companies.
Moreover the higher the rate of in
terest on Liberty bonds, the greater the
annual amount of taxation that the peo-
pie Of the United States would have been
obliged to pay.
Il am sure that, for every reason, the
financing Of the Governments necessities
upon low interest basis was a high
tribute to the intelligence and patriotism
OF the American people, as well as an
economic achievement of the greatest
value and Importance"
Mr. McAdoo. in parting with the
writer, refused TO admit that he was
entitled TO any credit for this remark

able achievement; the credit. he said, be-
longed to the Liberty loan workers, and
to the millions of people who subscribed
for the bonds.
But unless the American voter has the
mind of Josh Billings hen we will feel
that both the ex Secretary Of the Treas
ury and the Administration, Of which he
was a part, should receive credit for
what was done during that great crisis.
1t would have been q simple matter
to have kept taxes down. as most Eu-
ropean countries did, instead Of paying
one-third Of the cost Of the war as it was
fought.
1t also would have beeen easy to issue
bonds at a much higher rate of interest.
AS It Is, third of the cost has al
ready been paid; and the cost Of carry
ingA~the remainder is very much less
than would have been the case had the
financing Of the war been In less skillful
hands.

lutely that he was going to withdraw

DISTRICT U

In the Friday session of the Dis
trict Court a case came before
Judge c. c. Hommann in which the
difference in price of a second hand
automobile was raised. 1t was re-
vealed at the trial that some cars of
a 1914 make were not worth over
500, according to market value.
However, it was said hat a car is
good for as much as you can get for
it: but hat the price it is sold for is
not it's worth, if sold above the mar
ket value.
The case evolved a car. which
was o to A. Read of Port Read
ing by A. Strycker, of 233 Grant
street. Perth Amboy. for the sum of
$3.50. Senator Thomas Brown, who
represented by the defendant. Stry-
%contended that his client had
bought a car which had been mis-
represented by the defendent, Stry-
cker. who was represented by Will
liam A. Spencer.
A. Read testified that Strycker
had sold him the car and said that
it was a 1917 model, but that when
he came to get license plates for the
car he was informed that it was a
1914 type. The bill of sales showed
that the car was a 1917 model, but it
was shown in the trial that no Such
make of car was made in that year.
The bill ofesales was in the same
condition as Strycker had received
it fiom the party he had bought the
automobile arom, therefore the car
had been misrepresented to him
alyo.
William Spencer, the defendants
attorney, contended that Read was
perfectly satisfied with the a until
he found that it was not a 1917
model, and that if he had not known
the difference he would not have
brought suit to the differ
ence in price. An automobile sales
man was called into the trial to
testify as to the value of the car,
and it was shown that the car was
not worth owe SIS today.
In summing up the case, Judge
Hommann said hat it was his opin-
ion hat Read should be given the
difference in the price of the car be-
tween the years of 1914 and 1915,
which was the last yea in which the
type of ca. evolved was made. The
difference was $125, and the
Judge said that this was the decis-
ion, put he gave Attorney Spencer
another opportunity to show that
the car was worth as much as was
paid for it.

FORDS PAVING WORK
.EEETS SLOW PROGRESS

by Special Correspondent.
FORDS, oct. 1S:-Work on the
road between Rogan's corner and
Fords is not progressing as rapidly
as was planned for the reason thai
the contractors find that it is i'm
possible to purchase the material
needed to start the construction of
the roadbed.
They find that curbing cannot be
had at this time, and they have only
succeeded in getting a carload of
this material which they can use
10 proceed with the repaving of this
road. They have made efforts to
hurry the work but find hat the
material for such work is not on the
market in large quantities.
1t was intended to get this piece
of road completed as soon as posi-
bic and before the winter set in. Ii
is in a bad condition at the present
time, and is getting worse by the
heavy traffic that passes over Il
daily. But as only material enough
can be secured to start a small por-
;ion of the Road, it is believed that
only such work for which there is
enough material should be done at
this time. If the road is torn up be-
fore winter it will be made useless
for some time. This will put the
road in a worse state than it is. and
it was decided to start the construc-
ton work only at such time thai
sufficient material can be secured.
