WHY ONE MORE
LOAN IS NEEDED
It Will Settle Nation's War
Debts and Will Care for
Sick and Wounded. (
Once in a while aom* one aiks: J
"What's the need of another Liberty !
Loan now that the war li oyer?"
Revenue from taxes will not be suf- 1
ficient to pay all the bills, so the 1
people will be called upon to provide I
the money by subscribing to govern- i
ment bonds. This money is going to |
pay off the army of producers at home
—the fanners, merchants, manufac
turers and others. 1
America had Just begun to light .
when the Hun decided it was time to
quit. Allied leaders expected the war ,
to last another year and the United !
States government was turning out
■hips, arms, ammunition and food to '
' overwhelm Germany in one big •
drive.
Treasury officials have revealed ]
that In 1(19 America would have had ;
a tank at the front for every seventy- ,
Ave feet of line. We would have had ■
ten tons of mustard gas ready for (
shipment for every ton Germany
could produce. Thousands of batter-
I ies of guns would have been in act- •
lon for every one America had In 1918.
Everything els* was being produced
in proportion.
This gigantic preparation brought
an early end to the war and saved
thousands of lives. Victory Liberty i
Bonds will pay for this work which |.
had been contracted for and was be
ing delivered when the armistice was I
signed. 11
There are other purposes for which ,
money Is need. Part of our army of
2,000,000 men must be kept in Europe I
until the peace treaty is signed, j
These soldiers must be fed, clothed
and otherwise maintained. Then they
must be brought home.
The sick and wounded must be car
ed for In hospitals. The army must
be demobilized. There are thousands
of maimed soldiers, heroes of the
great war, who must be taught self
supporting trades and given an oppor
tunity to earn their living.
This reconstruction work at home
must be carried on. The Job must be
finished. The American people who
furnished the money to win the war
must supply It also to bring the na
tion back to a peace basis. ,
