"The people of the Ninth Federal
Reserve District will buy the amount.
of Fourth Liberty Loan Bonds allotted
to them, whatever that amount may
be. They would buy these bonds even
if they did not bear any interest."
This strong statement was made by
WA. R. Rogera, chairman of the Liberty
Loan Executive Committee of this dis
trict, after careful consideration. In
explaining his confidence in the loy
alty of the people of the fIorthwest,
be said:
"I am thoroughly convinced that the
AMERICA'S TASK IN FRANCE.
The above pieture of a Premeh town is typical of what the Americans are
ading as they drive back the destructive hordes of Kaiserism. It is to prevent
more of this cruel waste and help these who have suffered by it to regsin their
freedom that America's men are Eghtiag in France and Americans at home are
asked to provide the money. These objects cannot be obtained umless everyone
does his duty during the Fourth Liberty Loan, September 29th to October mad.
people of this great part of the coun
try will do whatever their Govern
ment asks them to do in this crisis.
I[ believe this after working with these
men through two Liberty Loan cam
paigns and having pretty well learned
their processes of reasoning and their
inclinations.
"I do not have this faith in the
people of the Northwest because I
think all of them are patriots, or are
anywhere near perfect.
"I do know, however, that a large
majority of the men in these North
west states understand what this war
means, what part the United States
Government must take in this war if
it is to be brought to a successful
conclusion.
"They know that the people of the
united States, individually and collec
tively, must stand by their Govern
nent if it is to accomplish its great
ambition and bring harmonious peace
to the world.
"They know that America must
finance her Allies and that if America
furnishes the money it means victory.
Every American must do his full
Share. I know that the men and
women of the Northwest appreciate
their duty to their Government and
will perform it at whatever cost to
themselves. They have learned that
everyone in America must get under
the load which America is catrying
for the dqmocracy of the world.
"Realizing all this and feeling
strongly the righteousness of the
cause, we are soldiers, and whatever
the Government in which we are stock
holders asks us to do, we will do.
"The actual work of selling bonds
in the Fourth Liberty Loan drive in
the Ninth District will begin Sept.
28 and will be completed just five days
later. The work of organization
throughout the district is being done
now. The county chairmen in all
counties are perfecting local organlma
tions, maring the allotments and ar
ranging all the details that will make

tively impk n1a .greet many a
ties, probabl in the marity of them,
ladividuar will be aotifed where sad
at what time to buy the bonds allotted
to them and their subscriptions will
be promptly made without solicitation.
"How ever a county committee de
cides to carry out the details of its
campaign will not be material so long
as the results are obtained.. All any
county has to do is to subscribe the
amount allotted to it and to secure
it properly and without resor to any
methods that cannot be justified.
"We have a great big task in front
of us, but the people of these states
are equal to it. They are not going
to fail to loan the money necessary
to their Government when millions of
our young men are gladly giving the
'service which may mean their lives."
WHERE THE MONEY GOES.
Billions ere big. The average lay
man finds a million hard to compre
hend. As an aid to understanding why
your Government must have so many
billions of its people's dollars, Pay
master General McGowan, of the
Unitqd States Navy, gives the follow

supplies and equipment in the Navy.
