GOOD TALK
The Four Minute Men speaker at
the ropular Picture Palace Sunday
night wjis V. 1. Balm .and th« sub
ject was the Third Liberty Loan
•'onds. lu yart, Mr. Btthn said:
"Uncle Sam says: "I want to Bee a
Liberty Bond in every American's
home.' "
"Skagway's allotment of the Thii<|
liberty loan is $18,0UU or at>outj
?35 per capita. Kngland has rais
ed on loans sinco the war began an
average of about $600 per capita.
Think of it. nix hundred dollars
each tor every man. woman and
child >11 the country, and France lias
done even. more.
"Surely our i>atriotisni is not
less than that of the British or
French and we are not, being1 put
to anything like the supreme test
to which they are. We are not
yet asked to give oar all. We are
only asked to do our part, and
if we do it promptly, and cheerfully,
a!l of us joining in the effort to
helo raise the fuuds for conducting
the war, we may end the bloody
tragedy without beiug forced to give|
our all.
"COtnpareil Willi me r num, »i
do not know what sacrifice means.
We are asked to forego only use
less luxuries, to save as a matter
of good busiues. but the French
have been forced to stint, to wear
old clothe®, to wear poor footwear,
to tat poor food and to do double
work.
"We have a hard road to travel
before we may expect peace because
we do not want a peace such as
Russian received, with tho German
advancing long after the peace
agreement has been signed and the
Russian army demobilized.
"None of us in. America will have
to sl=ei> tonight in mud or lying in
a eave with murderous thunder
and lightening over head, and
death lurking on all sides, like
tho soldiers in the trenches, who
are offering their ALL, TKKIK
LIVEo, far us and for democracy.
"These are troublesome times.
Just now everybody is busy, labor
is in great demand, wages are go
ing up, but gigantic destruction of
the world's uroperty is going on
and we do not know the end. Soon
er or later the man with a few dol
•ars saved up may be thankful, su
premely thankful, that he gave up
a co id deal during the years of
plenty that he may have some
'hin<5 for the lean years tlitet are to
come.
"Our country only asks >19 lo
LOAN' our money at good rate of
iutcrest, not to give it outright,
•bus benefitting us by saving as
well as helping our country.
"Many of us cannot buy all the
bonds w<e would like to, as we all
have many obligations to meet, but
we should make this ONE of our
obligations, because it is a debt the
nation owes, and we should all do
our best and not wait until we see
what the other person is going to
do.
"Furthermore, if the government
cannot sell the bonds, it will have
to Increase the taxation, and we
all know that money paid out In
taxes is never returned.
"The present issue consists of
ten year bonds bearing 4 V4 perecent
interest, and the drive closes 011
Alav 4th. If you cannot pay out
right for bonds you may make a
small deposit, and nay the balance
in installments, the final one being
due Aug. loth.
"In closing I will add that if
you own bonds of previous issues,
I hope you will try to buy more,
bearing in mind that this is a clioic
between BONDS and BONDAGE."
Mr. Hahn's talk met with great
applause, and was attentively lis
tened to by the large audience
present.
