Tr Briarcliff Manor, N. Y., May 7. Ten billion dollars will be the amount this ! nation will have to raise if the war; continues for one more year. This nut the prediction made here to-night j by William P. G. Harding, governor of ! the Federal Reserve Board, at a ban? quet at Briarcliff Lodge which brought ; rs1 day's session of the conven-i i.f the American Bankers' Associa-' tion to a close. "This war will be fought by the i American banker." said Mr. Harding. "The banks will make the Liberty Loan a most tremendous success. If the war should continue one more year the bankers of the country will have to | 110,000,000,000. We don't know how they will do it, but ere know that they can do it. "The banks should not subscribe for large ?mounts of the loan themselves. bat should get their clients to do it. I he problem to-dav is one of credit, not of ca^h." Practically every dollar of the na? tion's financial resources is represented by the hanker* who are gathered here. From the moment that the executive of the bankers' organization opened its convention until the close of ?he banquet little e!?e was discussed rays and means of mobilising the nation's resources for war.

"Save a cent a meal." is a slogan ted by Joseph Hirsch, of Corpus Christi, Tex., and applauded by mem l"rv of the agricultural body. "Two years of good crops would fill out the ribs of a hungry Kurope," he "While those crops are being raised, let us cut down just a little on each meal. If every one of the na 1 f'J,000,000 inhabitant? will ?ave a penny's worth of food from each meal we will bring about beneficial results the extent of which can hardly be cal? culated.

With Burroughs Direct-to-Ledger Posting both the customers' and sales ledgers are kept posted up to the minute, they are in daily balance, and neat, accurate, machine-made statements are always mailed promptly. Miss Wright, the operator who with no previous experience in mechanical bookkeeping accomplishes all this by means of the Burroughs, never has to work a second overtime. Thanks to Burroughs Direct-to-Ledger Posting The Neptune Meter Company's bookkeeping department has these advantages: Ledgers in perpetual balance. Extended balance on each account. Trial balance a mere formality. Prompt and accurate statements. Neatness, legibility and time-saving. Card or loose leaf ledgers may be used. The Neptune Meter Co. is among the hundreds of Burroughs Direct-to-Ledger Posting boosters in and around New York. We can give you some very interesting information about any of these installations. A 'phone call will bring a Burroughs man to your office at any time you state. NEW YORK OFFICE: Astor House Building, 217 Broadway Cortlandt 6120 e.r 9 7.0 : e,~ r ; ?::? 8;318.C 7,15 9/: U.Ol ?
