Practically as a unit the trust companies com-panies of New York have come forth In strenuous advocacy of tho partial payment plan as tho logical vehicle to convey second Liberty loan to the popular distribution so essential to Its real success. It Is natural that New York Bhould lead In enthusiastic recognition of the possibilities of this method of Investing whllo saving. Now York City Is Its stronghold, It Is tho home-of home-of tho live wire bundle of energy who has done moro perhaps than any j other Individual to make Iho plan a vital, powerful force which may well I bo tho deciding factor of tho present war. Nevertheless, New York, big and energetic as It Is, realizes that It Is too small a field In which to house tho partial payment plan. Already, there aro indlsputablo Indications of the manner In which the wholo country coun-try Is awakening to tho fundamental soundness of the Ideas on which the plan Is butldcd. There Is no doubt In our mind but that, before the campaign cam-paign Is under way much longer, Instead In-stead of being accepted within limited j confines, tho partial payment plan ,wlll tako tho entire nation by storm. I Wo believe that throughout tho , length and breadth of tho U. S. there .will be an Institution able to bear tho 'prefix "progressive" which will not , accept subscriptions to the present loan on the "dollar down, dollar a week" basts or somo other such plan of gradual acquisition bringing tha subscription possibility within tho sphere of all. And this Is as It should be. That tho loan will bo oversubscribed seems n fact concerning which there Is no real necessity for conjecture. The main object will not be achieved, however, unless tho masses vote their confldcnco In tho government by re sponding In no uncertain mcasuro to .tho need for funds to prosecuto tho war with undiminished activity. Tho j Kaiser and his cohorts continue to i buoy up tho hopes of tholr soldiers with etatoments that tho American ipeople aro not in accord with the government, that their heart Is not In tho conflict. Now la tho timo to throw tho Ho back into tho Kaiser's face. Now Is tho tlmo to acquaint Germany onco and for nil with tho unified purposo i with which tho U. S. meets tho Issuo. And tho partial payment plan nf fords tho practical, logical, economical way by which our cnomlcs may become bettor Informed on the spirit of America. Thero Is no reason why every U. S citizen rhould not contrlbuto something. some-thing. All together! A unanimous verdict to Gormany "An Undivided America." |
