LABOR AND i i SUPPLY BUREAU I SERVICE i Somo reasons why wo should sub-.1 sub-.1 scribo for Iho Liberty bond: 1 ' 1, Becauso wo are forced to du- I , fend ourselves iigalnst tho attacks on American honor and American rights II ' by the German gr jrnment, and H ' theroforo must havo i.ioney to equip ' and maintain our army and navy. We I ' need money also In order to lend to I thoso nations with whom wo are B making common cause In this war. I 2. Because the bonds are always lj easily marketable In caso wo wish to K sell them, nnd they form the best sell se-ll curlty which can bo offered In caso (I wo wish to borrow money. M 3. Becauso the bonds bear Inter-ffl Inter-ffl est at tho rato of 1 per cent a year, I payablo every six months. 1 4. Becauso tho promlso to pay a h government bond Is backed by tho faith and honor of tho United States, W nnd by tho taxing power of this whole H country, which Is tho richest nation Bj In tho world. This government has I Issued bonds before, and has never flj failed to pay every bond when It H "becamo due with all tho Interest on H the same. lj C. Because Liberty bonds aro cx- jl ompt from taxation, both as to prln- clpal and Interest, from nil taxes lm- posed by tho United States, any state, H or by any local taxing authority, cx- ccpt estate or Inheritance taxes nnd I graduated additional taxes (sur-E (sur-E taxes), and these apply only to I amount nbovo $5000, tho ordinary 1 purchaser Is cntlroly free from taxa-I taxa-I tlon 6. Becauso theso bonds can I tie exchanged tor any later bonds the I government may Issuo bearing a hlgh-I hlgh-I er rato of Interest, dollar for dollar, , JL-v without cost to tho holder, v 'JbNI ' Becauso theso bonds can bo I purchased on tho Installment plan, H only 2 per cent down, thus allowing I the buyer to meet tho later pay- jTionts from his futuro Income. I 8. Because wo aro sending thous- fl ands of our young men Into tho I 9 trendhes In a country that cannot feed ' I them. Shall we bo more tender with I our dollars than with tho lives of our sons? Is It right to transport j I thorn thousands of miles from this I bounteous land Into n country whore i I they may dlo from neglect and hung-B hung-B cr and then refuso to mako our own sacrifices? 1 9. Because, without our earnest fl assistance, It Is possible, yes, prob- B able, that Germany will becomo vlc- tor In Europe, and with tho British I fleet In her romorsolcss and brutal I hands this fair land would bo made to pay tho enormous costs of tho -wholo wr and tho principles of freo- flam tr which tho human raco has struggled, fought and bled for for I two thousand years, bo again lost to both ourselves and our unborn gener- atlons of tho futuro. Our taxes then I would bo n thousand fold and our lands worth only half of what they now aro. Is It wiser to mako our I small sacrifices now and unlto with I the bravo enemies of tho Monster of I Darkness, or to lull ourselves Into a I feeling that it docs not concern us, I and later fight tho monster slnglo I handed? 8 I 10. Becauso tho Gorman govorn-5 govorn-5 I mont has boon shown by recent do-1 do-1 H volopments to bo our enemy, not 1 only now, but for years past. Tho 1 I brutal assassin that took tho llfo of 1 I President McKlnloy npproached that I I iioblo, unsuspoctlng horo with a hand 1 1 wrapped In a looso bandago. When I I tho hand of friendship was extended H ' fj to him, ho revealed from that bandit band-it lj m;o tho revolver that Blow ono of our H Croat prosldentfl.
