Tho National Credit Men's Associa tion ndvlses strongly against .tho ac ceptance of Liberty Loan bonds for tho payment of obligations and offer ing them on the open market. Every man, woman and child, who can purchase Liberty Loan bonds from savings should do so in order that the banks will not have to tlo up too large a portion of their loan- j able funds which would cnuso busi ness stagnation. Let business men ponder seriously nnd prevent the embarrassment which will follow If tho coming Liberty Loan Is not placed with all tho people. United States 4 per cent bonds In 3001 brought 180 on tho stock market. Liberty Loan bonds will sell abovo par us booh as tho war Is -oyer. No United States bondholder has over lost a cent of principal or lntor ost except those who voluntarily have taken losses by selling their bonds In it period of . temporary prlco depres sion. Ono hundred cents on tho . dollar, principal and Interest, has the United States always paid Its bondholders. 1 nnd always will. The coming Liberty Loan plans arc being delayed by Congress, which Is proceeding In n very leisurely way in n tlmo of stress. If Congress would only do quickly whatever It la going to do, then tho Treasury could also get on with Its task, Tho banks of tlio United States could float tho coming Liberty Loan In n minute, but tho result would wreck our financial system and provo u nutlonnl calamity. The pooplo must help In tho task. HALTth eHUN! 3 Miss Anna KowalskI Mrs. Annlo Shea , S. L. Hollenbeck Mrs. Elsie P. Gorrard .., Alvin W. Hughes J. H. Ross Frank Gessol - Airs. Maudo M. Hendv ..
