Show BOLSHEVISM ITS CURE i President Wilson has aBked for food to stop tho wavo of Holshovlsm loll-,ln loll-,ln wostwnrd out of llusala. No Intelligent In-telligent person doubts tho value of food as a first aid, but at bottom the security or our Institutions rests upon tho working Interest tho peoplo tnko In those Institutions. Citizens having no Interest In a govornment, no economic Interest In tho success of that government, aro apt to bo tho first victims of vicious propaganda or unbalanced polltlcul theorists. On tho other hand men nnd women who havo invested In their go vornmont, either by way of conducting conduct-ing private enterprise under Its pro toctlon or through dlroct purchase of govornment securities havo something at stake and desire to maintain stablo Institutions. Such persons nro not nocossarlly reactionists. Thoy may be quite progressive and anxious for reform where roform Is needed. Consequently the effective barrier to Holshovlsm In America today Is thrift nnd Investment. The philosophy must reach Into tho workshops of tho nation. It Is reaching Into thoso workshops work-shops and Into tho echoolhouses of tho nation In the form of tho Thrift Stamp nnd tho War Savings Stamp, Interest paying engagements of tho Unltod States government which can bo bought for as low as 25 cents. When everybody In America Is buy-'Ing buy-'Ing Thrift and War Savings Stamps as a habit, one won't hear much about the I. W. W. In Amorlca. It la the financial and patriotic duty of every American who loves real llborty to get tho Thrift Stamp habit NOW. . |
