Adverti.iUK rate resaoDalita aod fur aished oa application. I pledge allegiance 10 MY r'LAG and to the Kepuhlic fur which ii siands, one nation in divisible wnh Liberty and Justice for all. YOU DARE NOT SHIKK. Work, work, work, and keep on working, be you day laborer, mechanic, clerk, banker, manu facturer, merchant, capitalist, law yer, preacher or teacher, or what ever may be your occupation. All that you have, all that you prue in lite, the honor of woman your women, be it remembered the safety of the prattling baby, the child yet unborn, the religion of Christ, civilization, your own America. THE NATION'S SUPREME TASK The nation's one job is to make war with every ounce of material moral, physical and financial strength. Nothing else counts now. War, war, vigorous, aggressive, all-powerful war, is our one su preme work. To that end the full est measure of the nation's life must be given and upon it the ut most potentialities of our resources be concentrated. Banish every thing else but the things which arm us with the power to strike for life and liberty. COMPARATIV E SUUAR PRICES During the first year of the war, the United States consumed more than four million tons of sugar. The wholesale price of refined sugar in this country at the present, lime is $7..H) per hundred pounds as compared with $9.15 last Au gust. The regulated wholesale price of sugar in various countries makes an interesting comparison; Per hundred pounds. United Kingdom, $12.59 France, $ 1 2.28 Italy, 26.30 Canada, 8.07 United States, 7. JO An increase of one cent per pound in the price ul sugar in the United States would take at least $82, 185,820 out of the pockets of American consumers in one year. PRODUCE EVERYTHING. This means crowd every coal mine to the utmost of its capacity, run every furnace and steel plant as though the nauun's life depend ed on it, which it does; build every ship, big and small, steel and wood, for which men and materials can be found, and count not the cost; run every cotton mill to its limit. Produce every bale of cotton, every bushel of grain that can be grown, raise livestock and poultry, and keep on raising them, for our allies are hungry, and soon will starve if we cannot supply them bread and meat. Make guns, the biggest and the best; produce explosives without limit; crowd all the potentialities of chemistry to the last notch of hu man energy; expand railroads; build permanent highways; make money with all possible energy, and turn it into Liberty Bonds and Red Cross or kindred intersts. MAY THERE BE NONE. President Wilson, in his state ment calling upon every man, wo man, and child to pledge them selves to sav constantly and to buy regularly the securities of the Government, says, "May there be none unenlisted." As the President points out, I his war is one of nations not of armies and all of our 100, 000,000 people must be economi cally and industrially adjusted to war conditions if this nation is to play its full part in the conflict." Our Nation, not our Army and Navy only, is ai war. And that means thai all of us not aUuaiiy fighting must do our part. That part consists in giving the Army and the Navy all the support of which we are capable. To do that each one of us must first of all be a producer to our maximum ability and a consumer of necessi ties only, For every bit of man power and every particle of mate rial is necessary for the use of the Army and Navy and for the ma king of the things essential to our citizens. As a maximum producer and as t consumer oF necessities only, each one of us will be an accumu lator of savings. And these savings can be invested in War Savings Stamps with benefit both to the Government and ourselves. REVENUE LEGISLATION. Holy fair, equitably distributed t.ixjiiun of the widest incidence and drawing chiefly from the sources which would be likely to demoralize credit by their very almikl.mcc can prevent inflation and keep our industrial system free of speculation and waste. We shall n.iiiii illy turn, therefore, I suppose, in war profits and in comes and luxuries for if"! addi tional axes. But the w ar profits and incomes upon which the increased taxes will be levied will be the profits and incomes of the calendar year 1918. It would be manifestly unfair to wan until the early months of 1919 to say what they are to be. It might be difficult, 1 should imag ine, to run the mill with water that had already gone over the wheel. Moreover, taxes of that sort will not be paid until June of next year, and the Treasury must anticipate them. From President Wilson's Address to Congress. WELDON 33 YEARS AGO.
