UNION MEETING
—
i A meeting of the Nenana Labor
] Union will be held at seven o’clock
| Friday night at the Labor Union
Hall. All members of the union are
urged to be in attendance.
__ _»
So long as the boys are at the
j front, difficulties are to be subdued,
1 impossibilities to be trampled down.
ON TOMORROW
Fourth Liberty Loan Campaign Will '
Start Tomorrow and Will Close
On October 19th.
The big Fourth Liberty Loan cam
paign will commence tomorrow •
morning and will be continued with
out interruption until October ISth,
and it is to be hoped that the pat
riotic citizens of Nenana will sub- j
scribe to the loan as liberally as they |
can and make it the success it de- j
serves to be.
In all of the Liberty Loans floated I
by the government of the United |
States, Nenanaites have come for
ward nobly and have exceeded the
allotted quota for Nenana to a very J
considerably extent. It is the pat
riotic duty of all true Americans to
support to the limit of their means
the Liberty Loans and enable the
government to prosecute the war
against tyranny and oppression to
a successful termination.
Buying Liberty Loan bonds is a
splendid investment from a business
point of view also, and it is hoped
that when the campaign opens for
the sale of these bonds tomorrow,
Nenanites will respond as readily
as they have always done hitherto.
Applications for bonds of the
Fourth Liberty Loan will be re
ceived by Mr. C. H. Hall and Frank
Doner in the disbursing office of
the Alaskan Engineering commission,
E. R. Brown of the N. C. Co., and
the woman’s committee headed by
Mrs. Carl Schmidt. Mrs. Schmidt
will appoint a committee to assist
her in the sale of the bonds, and
the names of the members of this
committee will be announced later.
The bonds bear four and one
quarter per cent interest from
October 24 th, which is the last date
on which payments can be made by
wire to the Federal Reserve Bank
at San Francisco. Payments can fie
made in full with application with
out rebate of interest, or ten per
cent of the amount of the bond de
sired may be deposited with the ap
plication and the balance due paid
in installments as follows: 20 per
cent on November 21st; 20 per cent
on December 19th; 20 per cent on
January 16th; and 30 per cent on
January 30th. The bonds will be in
the same denominations as in the
Third Liberty Loan; interest being
payable on April 15th and October
15th of each year.

GOLD SITUATION
IS GRAVE SAYS
FRISCO BANKER
_
PORTLAND, Ore.—General adop
tion of the gold standard by all
nations throughout the world after ^
the war, and a consequent increased
demand fo rgold was predicted by
John Clausen, vice president of the
Crocker National Bank, San Fran
cisco, in an address before a con
ference of Pacific coast bankers
and clearing house association repre
sentatives here recently.
With the falling off in produc- i
tion of gold and a material rise in
prices a very serious state of af
fairs confronts the world which is
likely to affect the aco.oomic posi
tion of all peoples ” said Clausen
in commenting on reports of gold
mines closing down because cf in
creased costs of operation.
“If prices and wages are increased, '
so far as they are paid in gold,” ho j
continued, “it will require a pro-1
portionate amount of money to meet
the higher costs- It follows as a
matter of course that a larger cir
culation of money is required to
meet the demand. While the quan
tity of gold available as money is
seen to exert an influence in the i
direction of raising or lowering |
prices, it would seem equally cer- j
tain that as international commerce
progresses and the system of credits
expands, an increased world’s supply
of gold is a matter of great im
portance.”
The tendency to a further rise in
prices is likely to continue for many j
years, according to Clausen, who
offered no remedy for the situation
but urged a careful consideration
of the problem by the bankers.
