M, Illinois and Kingsbury St., Chicago THE PRINCETON UNION: THURSDAY, APRIL 17,1919 NINTH DISTRICT WILL NOT FAIL People Must Oo Their Full Share Putting Victory Loan "Over the Top." PATRIOTISM WILL DO IT Officials of War Loan Organization Prepare for Campaign and Are Con fident of Successful Outcome To Uphold Past Record. "The people of the Ninth Federal Reserve District will do their full share in finishing the job." A. R. Rogers, Chairman of the War Loan Organization, unhesitatingly made this ^promise to Carter Glass, Secretary of the Treasury, when he visited District Headquarters recently. "We know the temper, the patrio tism and the record of the people of the Northwest too well to have any fear of their response to the loan of thanksgiving," was the secretary's re sponse. "Therefore, it is up to us to con tinue to lead the United States 'over the top,'" said Theodore Wold, Gov ernor of the Ninth District Federal Reserye Bank. "Because of past per formances the whole country is ex pecting great things of us in the test of peace time patriotism and, judg ing from the ambition, enthusiasm and optimism already in evidence among our workers, we will not fall." Speakers Get Busy.' "We're off to a flying start," said Joseph Chapman, district director of speakers. "Our campaign of platform education and instruction opened March 24. Every county is or will shortly be organized with a speakers' chairman. From now until the big' buying day, April 21, there shouldn't be a meeting, large or small, in the whole district" without a Victory Loan speaker on the program. Anyone who finds his county unorganized should take it up at once with his county chairman or with us. It is up to every man, woman and child to get busy and keep busy until the job is finished." The Opening Gun. America's duty to her soldiers who suffered and bled and died for liberty on the fields of France was empha sized in a stirring speech by Carter Glass, Secretary of the Treasury, in the Minneapolis Auditorium the night of March 20. In his talk he pointed out the need of raising money the government must have "to finish the job" that the wear ers of the khaki started so well on the other side of the Atlantic. The speech was the opening gun in the Victory Loan camjJaign that opens April 21 and was followed closely by a capacity house, made up of county chairmen from the Ninth District and delegates to the Better Business con vention. He spoke in part as follows: "When I am told of the difficulties, which will beset the Victory Loan I refuse to lose faith in the enduring patriotism of the American people I decline to believe that this fathers and mothers who gave four million sons to die, if need be, that liberty might survive, will now haggle over the ma terial cost of saving the very soul of civilization from the perdition of Prus sian tyranny. "But I am told that we must ap proach the problem of future loans in a distinctly cold-blooded mood. Some men tell me it will be impossible again to appeal to the patriotism of the American people. Frankly, gentlemen, I should despair of my country if these things were exactly true. I should doubt our ability "to cope with the problems of peace if so quickly we should forget the obligations of war. I wonder if those who talk in this fashion speak considerately? They tell about the "sacrifices" the Ameri can people have made, and in their voices there is a metallic tone and in their mien unconscious austerity. "What is meant by the sacrifices of war for America? Where are our devastated fields and ruined cities? Where our cathedrals destroyed and homes profaned? Where our defiled women and starved children and wrecked men? Where on this wide' continent does hunger stalk abroad or pestilential disease claim its thousands of victims? Is it, then,, a serious sac rifice to invest one's money in the interest-bearing obligations of one's government in order to make, ever lastingly secure the nation's freedom as well as the nation's property? "Our allies fought for us nearly three yea*s before we began to* fight with them. F6r nearly that period of time the United States profited tre mendously, in a commercial and in dustrial sense, by the, European war. Immense fortunes were made pros perity pervaded our land. France and Britain lost millions of men killed and millions of others wounded. Less than sixty thousand American heroes sleep beneath the sod of France. Those men, made the supreme sacrifice. Should we dishonor their memories or dimin ish the glory of their service by paus ing in the cheerful performance of an imperative duty? "When men undertake to compute the sacrifices of a war for freedom In terms of commerce I would like them to get a vision of some .things I saw not long ago on the far-flung battle fronts of Ypres, which will lire In song andstory, through ttlme and eter nity, as the most memorable of which hiatory will ever give account. 'There they might perceive the real meaning of sacrifice. There they could see what human heroism endured for the liberty of the race here and the wide world over. Here by night and day, in fair weather and foul, fighting their way step by step, waist deep in mud and mire, chilled to the bone, these incomparable heroes, these crusaders in the cause of liberty, fought their way through inconceivable obstacles and drove the enemy off the heights from* which the Hun had literally viewed the Promised Land. Great God! what a moment was that for civilization. And how beyond the imagination of man to picture human endurance and courage so everlast ingly sublime. "Is there no obligation upon us to recompense vicarious suffering like that?', Do we quite fully appreciate the sacrifices made by these boys for us when we talk about discharging our debt on a commercial basis, in a cold blooded way? I want to be sensible In dealing with the Victory Loan my own life has been too hard and too real to even suggest an excess of emo tion. But, as the question looks to me, we should not approach it in cold blood. We have a right to in voke the patriotism of the people, and today it takes a higher type of pa triotism to serve the nation'than was required in the delirium of war. U.pon this I shall confidently rely and I here predict that the response will in no measure disappoint the expecta tion of those who set a high estimate upon the spirit of the American na tion. "We call this last the Victory Loan. It is that and more It is a Thanks giving Loan. "There are yet. 1,600,000 American boys in France and Germany who must be maintained' in comfort and brought home in. safety and provided with em ployment on their return. While Con gress is writing off the books $15,000,- 000,000 of authorizations, for which public funds would have been ex pended, had not the war suddenly ter minated, the Government is still ex pending two billion dollars per month to meet the honorable commitments of the country. The honor of the Government is Involved. Being your government, it is your honor that American people will make a response of which the nation will be proud." Buy for Victory and Peace U. S. WAS FAR BEHIND IN WAR EXPENDITURES Enlightening Information From ures Computed by War Department. Fig- Those who believe that the United States has contributed far more to the prosecution of the war than any of the other allies, may glean some en lightening information from figures re cently compiled by the Treasury De partment. These, figures show that in coumari son with Great Britain, for example, this country was far behind in total expended. The latest available statistics show that Great Britain's war bill totalled $37,100,000,000, in comparison with $18,481,000,000 for the United States. Criticism has been -heard that this country loaned. Great Britain, France and others of the allies all the money they sjsent. The Treasury figures also disprove this statement. Our total loans to the Allies were $7,875,000,000 and Great Britain lent $8,500,000,000. Even France, generally considered a poor war spender, devoted more to winning the war than did America with a total of $27,000,000,000. Russia was right behind us with $18,000,000,- 000. Germany was second only to Great Britain in paying for the four years of war for the Berlin government poured out $36,500,000,000 in a vain at tempt to get her place in the sun. The other Teutonic allies added $23,000,- 000,000, giving the Central Empires a total war bill of $59,500,000,000. Buy lor Victory and Peace IF HE WERE YOURS. The great heart of Uncle Sam is softened when dealing with the rela tives of his soldiers who have made the great, sacrifice. It is often said that a big govern ment has no time for sentiment, but Uncle Sam has spent millions for sen timent alone. He has established an Effects Bu reau that does nothing but see that the property of the dead boys gets to their people. He will spend a thou sand dollars to get to a bereaved moth er a watch or a knife or a trinket that belonged to that dead boy. In one week in February, twenty tons of effects arrived in -New York. It is the little details like this in "fin ishing the job" that cost money. Think of getting the dead boy's effects back to the bereaved mother when you are asked to subscribe to the Victory Lib erty Loan on April 21. Buy for Victory and Peace HELP THE BLIND. Soldiers themselves are almost unan imous in voting the blinded men the greatest tragedy of war. Poor France has 3,200 men whose eyes were blasted out of their heads while meeting mankind's enemy in the Great War. The United States has not compiled figures on the number of her blinded sons. While the number is far lower than in France, this country is doing everything that money and kindness can do to make the blind hp.ppy.
