The war h. costing the lnited Status $1,000, COO an hour.
To offset this steady and tremendous drain upon the nation's
carh rowurcp. there must he a corresponding stream of, dollars
floving i tit y tlit' national treasury.
Thrift stamps and war savings stamps offer the people an op
portunity to ueposit their daily, weekly or monthly savings with
the ov eminent .
Iti return the govei r.r.ient will repay the principal with 4 per
cent interest . compounded quarterly. As an example of how the
i;ive?:c; o money will grow, sixteen war savings stamps, costing 25
e r.tE-. each, or 4.00 in ril. with 12 cents added, will entitle the
dpo-itor to $?.f'0 on January 1, 1923.
A? an investment, safety considered, there is nothing better

In the big cities, Berlin, Cologne,
Hamburg, Leipzig, Essen and many
others, the murmur grew into tumult.
There were mass meetings at which
thunderous shouts for per.ee vent up.
Owing to the hermetical i;e.l:ng of

The unrest which has b-.-guu to

brated the anniversary of th dr rul

For the first time, not only i:: t lie
war, but in T0 years, doubt of the
army's finality and capability as the
arbter of the nation's fate has been
publicly raised by a. recognized lead
er of millions, and more than this,
the doubt has been published far
and wide in the empire, because the
censorship shackles had err eked und
er previous socialist onslaughts.
Political observers here have long
since agreed that any real up. ising
in either one of the Teutonic em
pires must, begin in their armies
mainly because every ahl"bod;ed man
is under arms. The root of such a
rising, however, they agree, is lack
of confidence, the feeling that new
offensives will share the fate of for
mer ones, will be undecisive and only
ntail new terrific losses.
