The present prices of Liberty Bonds have also been a factor in contribut ing to pessimistic stories as to the dif ficulty which the nation will have in floating a Fifth Loan. The situation Is well set forth In The Annalist, New York financial weekly, as follows: Every loan floated, whether it be corporate or governmental, re quires a certain amount of time to become seasoned. This will be particularly true of our national loans, which have all been sold during periods of tremendous pressure where every appeal was made to the buyer to take the maximum, whether or no the se curity was suited to his needs or within his ability to pay. within his ability to pay. Healthy Gravitation. Gradual liquidation from small holders is as Inevitable, therefore, as the law of survival. He shall take who hath the power, and he small keep who can, and It is In keeping that more strength of character is required than in the resolution necessary to bring one to the point of signing the appli cation. The gravitation that Is going on. therefore, is a healthy function, except, of course, where selling is Induced by unscrupulous swindlers. The liquidation from this source represents so many footprints of the bonds in passage from the hands of the weak to the strong, and every sale that takes place on the board emanating from this source Is one step nearer to a solid market for Liberty Loans, since it is a well-known character istic of those who buy in a de clining market to hold either for permanent investment or for so substantial a rise that they are amply compensated for their carry. Will Steady Market. Much of the money realized from bonds sold writeoffs In the Income tax will either He in banks or go Into short-time securities for Invest ment and the switching by sav ings banks may be safely counted upon to do nearly as much good to the market price of the Liberty Loans as it can harm to rails and municipals. As a matter of fact the taking of tax exempts from institution unaffected by taxes and the resale of the same to private individuals is only the nat ural result of gravitation of securi ties Into the final niche In which they are most efficient. It Is confidently believed, there fore, that a turn In the tangent of bond prices Is at hand with •specially cheerful prospect for to produce an ft u our national loans. BOLSHEVISM—ITS CURE President Wilson has asked for food to stop the wave of Bolshevism roll Ing westward out of Russia. No In telllgent person doubts the value of food as a first aid, but at bottom the security of our institutions rests upon the working Interest the people take In those institutions. Citizens having no Interest in a government, no economic interest in the success of that government, apt to be the first victims of vicious propaganda or unbalanced political theorists. On the other hand men and women who have invested in their government either by way of conduct ing private enterprise under its tectlon or through direct purchase of government securities have something at stake and desire to maintain stable institutions. necessarily reactionists, be quite progressive and anxious for reform where reform is needed. Consequently the effective barrier to Bolshevism in America today Is thrift and investment. The philosophy must reach into the workshops of the are pro* Such persons are not They may nation.
