SAN FRANCISCO, Aug After
attending a national Liberty loan con
ference of publicity directors in
Washington, as well as seven state
conferences on the coming loan,
(leorge A. Van Smith, manager of
publicity for the Twelfth Federal Re
serve district, has returned convinced
that every man, woman and child
must “loan to the utmost" if the coun
try is properly to back the govern
ment's "wln-the-war-quickly” pro
gram.
"Rich and poor must save, save now
and keep on doing it if we are to
support our army that is over there
and the army that must go in the j
next few months to make certain that j
the balance of man power is on our I
side,” says Van Smith. "Approxi
mately one-half of the net income of
the nation for the next eleven months
must be loaned to the government.
That Is, income after the payment of
taxes, and this means that the heav
ier burden must fall on those with
the most money.
"The shipbuilding program must be
continued to enable the United States 1
to retain the foreign trade foothold
the war has given us. The national
war program und the post-war ex
penditures require twenty-four bil- '
lions of dollars for the fiscal year <
ending next June. About fifteen bil- '
lions must he borrowed, and gener
ally the country is ready.
"The fourth loan will be a greater
thing than the world ever attempted,
and it must be subscribed. As to
states outside of California in this
district, the managers of the Oregon
campaign purpose to put over the Ore
gon campaign in three days, and they
believe It can be done without solici
tation. The state of Washington
committee believes the campaign will
. cquire not to exceed a week.
"The educational period for the
loans has passed. It has resolved
Itself into meeting duty on the exact
terms of that duty, and this can be
done without any form of the real sac
rifice that the people of England,
France and Belgium have had to
make. Such sacrifice as the Ameri !
'an people have to make w ill be made
in profits."
