SIX MONTHS TO PAY
The Victory Liberty loan closes
next Saturday. It is the best bargain
of all of America’s stupendous war
security issues. That financiers and
econmists agree upon. It is also the
last of the Liberty loans.
The loan is for $4,500,000,000 sup
ported by notes carrying 4% per cent
interst and liberal tax exemption fea
tures. These are convertable into
notes bearing 3% per cent inteerst
virtually free of taxation. The first
will be more valuable to the poor
man. The richman will buy the sec
ond. Both series mature in 1923 but
the government has the privilege of
calling them in, in 1922. The early
maturity of these notes makes them
a prized investment.
In order to get wide distribution of
the Victory loan among the rank and
file of Americans—in order to get
these notes into the humblest homes
cl' America, the government will sell
them on time. The man who buys a
Victory note will have six months to
pay for it. In other words the gov
ernment does not want the banks to
take the loan even if the banks could.
Six months to pay! Think of the
years these boys of ours who have
come back without legs or eyes, are
going to pay. Is there a man among
us who calls himself an American
who cannot take his share of this loan
under these terms? Gan that man
face these armless and legless fellows
and tell them why he is not taking
his share?
If the war has done one thing for
this community it has made it
American, heart and soul. It is going
to stay American.
The test of that Americanism is its
record in the Victory loan.
Men and women! This is the last
Liberty loan. Let’s stand shoulder to
shoulder—Americans all—and finish
this war job that those who died shall
have died not in vain.
THE LABOR COVENANT.
The labor covenant which is ad
vanced as a part of the proposed
league of nations contains among its
provisions the following interesting
and important points:
That eight hours be the maximum
working day for labor.
That human labor must not be con
sidered or treated as a commodity.
That all countries compel the pay
ment of wages adequate for the pro
per support of human life.
That the principle of equal pay for
men and women for equal work per
formed be recognized and established.
That child labor everywhere be pro
hibited.
These simple proposals are emin
ently fair and will appeal to the sense
of justice of every thinking individual.
Incorporated in an international
agreement they should go far toward
equalizing labor conditions in the in
dustrial nations of the world. In the
keen international competition that
will follow the settlement of peace,
it is obvious that, unless tho game is
played in accordance with fixed prin
ciples of a code which is commonly
accepted by competing nations, injus
tice will be done to the wage earners
of the weaker nations. There will also
be the temptation to exploit labor.The
proposals cannot be expected to cover
the entire situation, but they are in
themselves an excellent start.

HUNGARIAN COUNT IS
OUT AFTER POPULARITY
LONDON, May 6 (by Associated
Press).—The prominence given to
Count Karolyi, the Hungarian pre
mier who is credited here with turn
ing the government of that country
over to the Bolsheviki, has recalled to
one of his London acquaintances that
he is a “millionaire racing man, never
wqasjf-of remindingEurope that one of
his ancestors was executed by Fran
cis Joseph as a rebel in 1849 for hav
ing taken up arms against Austria in
the name of Magyar liberty.”
“The present Count Karolyi,” con
tinues the correspondent writing to a
newspaper, "is always careful to con
ceal the fact that he has always been
at one with the other Magyar mag
nates on one point, jamely the keep
ing under of the subject peoples by
the Magyars. He has often paraded
his friendship for the entente, but as
a hussar officer he fought eagerly
against the Russian, Serbian, Ruman
ian and Italian.
“With the duplicity of a Tisza,
Karolyi has not even the excuse of
fanatical conviction, whether politcal
or religious. He is a time-server, al
ways playing to the gallery for his
own end, which may be summed up
in the phrase ‘popularity at any cost.’
To secure the plaudits of the mob for
his racing colors,in his prime political
consideration. So now he comes out
as the super-patriot and Socialist.”
