Dttrtag the campaign; f the first Liberty Loan, there waa. ia some Quar ters a fear that by subscribing to the loan, deposits in , banks - would be greatly reduced, subscribers drawing upon - this source for thev money to buy bonds. But -this fear was groundless, as is shown by the report on the conditions of the National banks of the country this year in com parison with a yeir ago.. March 5, J917, the total deposit? was $12,957, 60r,000, and oa March 4, this year, de posits had grown to 114,43T.589,000 Now some may say that the increase was only in spots, du to the fact that munitions factories and other war ac tivities were paying higher wage? and employing more men, and that there has beea no lacrease for the whole country -But this is not true as. is shown by the figures tor North Carolina, which has had little direct profit from war industries. During last year the resources of the . Na tional banks of this State increased by $36,434,006, and the deposits grew $31,000,000. ; COTTAGE CHEESE The Department of Agriculture has; named Miss Annie Rankin, of Charlotte, as agent in NortJ Caro lina to encourage the production of cottage cheese. This is in line with the policy of the government to en courage wherever possible the pro duction of new ,or heretofore undevel oped foodstuffs, Miss Rankin being one of 47 women named in as many States for this puprpose. Experi- meats In cottage cheese have shown that it is equal in food value to "meat, and if the people, especially on the farms, would devote more attention to it there would be a great saving of meat. The cheese is made from summed:- mils or Duttermujc, now largely wasted, and its extended use would ave money for purchasing other foods and at the same time re lease much meat for the use of our armies and our allies . Tht campaign is worthy of most careful considera tion by housewives who are desirous of aiding their country. TO MELT SILVER DOLLARS In order to provide a large quantity of bullion for meeting the demands of our foreign trade, especially Oriental, Congress is working on a measure to permit the Secretary of Treasury to melt, break up and sell 350,000,000 standard silver dollars gaoU reflfe "an. equal amount of outstanding silver certificates. The price at whieh the bullion pro vided by the act is to be sold is $1 per ounce of pure -silver, and the terms of sale are left to be determin ed by the Secretary of the Treasury. Estimated at the average price at which this silver w.as ' originally bought, the cost of the bullion to the government was about 51.01 per ounce, so that the amount received rom the sales will-be about the same as what was originally paid. It shoald be remembered, however, that at the present weight of the silver dollar the worth of the pure silver in it is below 78 cents, so that the sale of the bullion in a dollar shows a loss of over 22 cents when silver brinfirp dollar per fine ounce. If 350.000,- 000 dollars were sold there would be a book loss of $77,000,000 if the whole amount were disposed of and not cov ered by new purchases of silver to take the place of what is sold. How ever, under the terms of the bill, if new silver can be acquired at not to exceed $1 per ounce, the amount tak en from the sums now held would be replaced and no loss would be shown except for thte actual cost of recoia ing the dollars In case of the non- purchase of the buillion to replace what was sold there would be a loss at the rate already indicated . Ia that event, according to section i of the .bill, the Secretary of the- Treas ury is authorised: "From any monvs n the Treasury not otherwise appro priated, to reimburse the Treasurer of the United States for the differ ence between the noaainal face value of all standard silver dollars so'meK- ed or broken tip and the value of the sijver . bullion, at $1 per ounce of. -silver bullion, at $1 pper ouace of silver one thousand fine, resulting from the melting or breaking up of such stan rdard silver dollars." -The real question as to Immediate cost of the operation Is thus seen t be the possibility of buyine new all. yer at the figure of $1 per ounce It Is clear that the retirement of the silver certificates In the uinnnr desired would reduce the circulation by an equal amount and to provide a substitute medium the bill acconftk- y undertakes to supply.

The operation; if It did not involve tha re purchase of silver by the Treasury, Would result in disposing of the gov ernment's holdings of silver at atrifie ess than original cost; while if silver is ultimately purchased in equal quantity would restore existing condi tions . If it should not prove possible to get that amount of silver it would result in Substituting currency like the National bank notes for silver cer- tificates.tp the extent to' which the old Silver was 1 sold and not replpaced. The proposition is one of the most mporptant so far as it affects silver that has been advanced in a quarter of a century, but it is not likely to create-the political storm that was aroused when legislation relating to this kind of coin was last agitated. ' WITH THE EDITORS. Asheville Times: The Greensboro News of Friday carried aa interestiag Story Showing the intense earnestness and determination of Durham workers ano: subscribers for Liberty Bonds. It seems that certain business men there and others who are able to subscribe or Liberty Bonds have not done so and, at a meeting held by the work ers, a resolution was passed calling upon all loyal people to inquire of those with whom they trade whether or not such tradesmen had pur chased a Third Liberty Loan bond. The women are asked to make such nquiries of the butcher, the grocer, the clerks in shoe stores, dry goods stores, etc., with whom they do busi ness, and if a negative reply is giv en, the would-be purchaser is asked to go elsewhere to buy his goods. In other words, according to the plan, those who do not invest in Liberty Bonds are to be boycotted, ; and Tt is stated- that those Durham 'people who fail to do their part are going to fare badly, Durham County's apportionment of the Third Liberty Loan is about $750, 000. Up to date it has suscntel $1010,000. It is striving for $1,250, 000 and with such determination on the part of its loyal citizens it will undoubtedly succeed in its purpose. -News and Observer: When dlemen- ceau became Premier or ranee, a new era in the war was started. Doubts, fears, misgivings of all sorts were cast to the winds and France went in to win the war or perish in the attempt. Clemenceau gave the word that talk of an inconclusive peace had to stop and that secret ma- chinations for the cultivation of a sen-' timent for a negotiated peace must cease on peril of death. A net was spread for the spies who accepted pay from Germany for the carrying out of German peace propa- tnrougnout nis lectures, lie is aa en ganda in France. Bolo Pasha was tertainer of the first rank as well as a' one of the fir6t caught. He was pros-" lecturer. I ecuted relentlessly and his guilt es- Mr. Bennchjimn has ha A a remark-' tablished beyond all doubt. The French government, upheld by the indomitable will of Clemenceau, re fused to yield to any sort of appeal for clemency and yesterday Bolo Pasha faced the firing squad. Traitors and spies' in all countries may well take note or the f ate er Bolo Pasha. Loyal men everywhere may wellejoice that France has done h3r duty by herself and by her Allies by putting an end to the life and activities of Bolo Pasha. Sampson Democrat.
