THE APPEAL.
ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, APRIL 19, 1919 Blooded business Propos
Proposition
"A Cold Blooded Business Proposition"
Thirty million other Americans here at home got in on that "investment"—saved and went without things for a year and a half to do it.
THAT was a "cold-blooded business proposition."
Well—we've still got a job to finish. And we're still Americans. Do you believe we're not going to do it in the old American way?
The only "business proposition" we're interested in just now is the proposition to see the job through right—to a finish—with whatever American dollars and whatever American energy it may take.
That may be a "cold-blooded business proposition."
Some people call it patriotism.

A Cold Blood Business
"The American public are tired of patriotism now that the war is over. The only thing that will appeal to them is a cold-blooded business proposition." All right! Let's see what kind of a cold-blooded proposition this is.
Sixty-five thousand Americans went to France and "invested" all they had in Liberty—and were killed before their "dividends" came due.
THAT was a "cold-blooded business proposition."
Two million other Americans went to France, too, and willingly offered to get in on the same "investment." And they knew they'd never "clip a coupon."
THAT was a "cold-blooded business proposition."

WHY?
When delegates elected by colored Americans in convention assembled to go to France and appeal to the Peace Conference for the abolition of the color line, applied to the State Department for passports, they were refused.
BUT, when Irish-Americans asked for passports for four of their representatives to go to France and work among the delegates to the Peace Conference for FREE IRELAND, which really means interfering with the internal affairs of Great Britain, the passports were granted without a quibble.
If it is right for Irish-Americans to go to the Peace Conference, why were Colored-Americans denied the right?
WHY?
Out of eight column headlines in one of the leading metropolitan dailies of a recent issue an issue printed when we are supposed to be either at peace or close to it, the following story is told: "Allied Missions Seized-Interned Budapest at Request of Lenine." Guns Rule Budapest." "All Egypt in Revolt." "Poland, Romania and Jugoslavs Fear Bolshevik Invasions." "Council Needs Chief—Leader Wanted at Peace Table to Bring End to Discord." And now take a look at the following one which represents what is going right on just as though the other headlines never existed. A representative of blind egotism and stubborn will; a representative of the limit to which a man will go who believes in theories above practical things." "Wilson Draws Clause to Guard Monroe

TERMS, STRICTLY IN ADVANCE:
"Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature." —John Stuart Mill.
HEADLINE HARBINGERS.
Code-League Powers Limited—Can Recommend but Not Force, Reduction in Armament." Such a comparison needs no explanation. In its subtle way it speaks for itself.
SOUTH OUT OF SADDLE.
An analysis of the state of committee chairmanships of the next house, as framed by the Republican committee on committees, shows the transfer of power from the south to the north, with the middle west exercising the dominant influence. Whereas nearly all of the important chairmanships, during the Democratic regime, were held by the south, only two states south of the Ohio river, Kentucky and Tennessee, will figure in the list this time. These two states will have one minor chairmanship each.
The chairmanships of seven of the ten principal committees will be held by representatives from the four middle western states of Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. Two of the remaining three go to Pennsylvania and one to California. Pennsylvania leads the list of states in the number of chairmanships with eight. Illinois is second with seven, but none of it is a major chairmanship.
NOT EVEN GOOD OLEO.
MINISTER MILITANT.
"I don't propose to have it (the league of nations) crammed down my throat until I know what it is, what it looks like, tastes like and what it is to cost this country." This is the way one minister expresses his views concerning the league. He is the Rev. Charles A. Eaton, pastor of the Madison Avenue Baptist Church, of New York, and head of the National Service Section of the U. S. Shipping Board. He expressed his views while speaking at Wilmington, Del., and praised the critics of the league plan, even though he is for a league of nations, by saying: "God bless the thirty-seven Senators who criticized the league of nations plan. Americans have to make the greatest decision since the signing of the declaration of independence."
HAD A FINE TIME.
The Department of Labor's industrial junketeers, who sailed in January to study labor conditions abroad, and possibly to catch a few crumbs from royal tables, have returned. Like Mr. Hurley, who meandered abroad to enforce a world-wide marine wagescale, they return with open minds and ears to the ground after an enjoyable trip at public expense which netted them no concrete information. It is now Secretary Redfield's turn to provide for a junket. European tours de luxe at public expense for government officials looking forward to retirement in 1920 are the order of the day. "On account of the war."
NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN.
William J. Bryan positively asserts that the idea in the League of Nations of "deliberation before war" is taken from the 30 treaties negotiated by the United States with three quarters of the world. These treaties were written while Mr. Bryan was Secretary of State. So the idea is not, as some would have us understand, original with Mr. Wilson. However, if this nation should ever again undertake the deliberation which characterized our "watchfully waiting" Administration from 1914 to 1917 it might be we would be overwhelmed before the plan of defense had been mapped out.
SAME OLD STUFF.
Remembering the language in which President Wilson induced his democratic congress to reverse itself on the subject of Panama canal tolls, against the interests of the United States, it will not be surprising if he tells the country that the proposed constitution of the League of Nations must be indorsed "in ungrudging measure" or he will not know how to deal with other vital international problems.
WE'LL HANDLE OUR BUSINESS. We shall very likely make many changes in our laws and a few changes in our Constitution, in the future as in the past, but we shall make them on our own judgment and not at the behest of people of other lands who have come here to share in American prosperity without helping to support American institutions.
"Midst all his luxurious voyages across the Atlantic, his parades before the cheering throngs, his festivities with royalty and his dictation of peace treaties, President Wilson should reflect that "No bird ever flew so high but that he had to light."

Are you a wise spender? Wise spending is regarded as a highly important preliminary to thrift by the U. S. Treasury. As part of its campaign for promoting popular savings through Thrift and War Savings Stamps during 1919, it has issued through its Savings Division the following definition of wise spending, which merits the thoughtful attention of every family and every individual who would get ahead in life:
Wise spending implies the balancing of all needs and of all means of meeting these needs and, after balancing needs against means, spending in such a way as to meet the most urgent needs, even if lesser ones have to be left unsatisfied; in essence it means a sort of budget-making. When a family, city or state makes a budget, what it does essentially is to take a comprehensive view of both needs and income. It is important that not all the income be spent on the first needs that may occur lest other more urgent needs appear and no funds be left to meet them; that is, thought must be taken so that available income can be applied intelligently and wisely to cover most important needs and to satisfy them somewhat in proportion to their relative importance.
"Perhaps the most important and difficult problem in connection with wise spending (or saving) is to realize the relative importance of future as compared with present needs. The temptation of all of us is to satisfy present needs at the neglect of future needs. It is very foolish to neglect the urgent necessities of today for the petty wants of the morrow, but few need very much persuasion to induce them to take care of the present. Where most of us are foolish or unwise is in satisfying petty wants of the present rather than saving in order that urgent needs of the future can be met."

JOINT THANKSGIVING-MEMORIAL
The joint Thanksgiving-Memorial service of Gopher and Ames lodges, Elks, at Pilgrim Baptist church last Sunday evening was quite largely attended and was quite impressive in every way. Ames lodge of Minneapolis was well represented. There was an augmented choir that sang splendidly, Mr. Frank B. Simpson, Exalted Ruler of Gopher presided and conducted the ritualistic services. The invocation was made by Rev. Benjamin H. Hodge the new pastor. Mr. Charles Summer Smith, State Deputy, spoke on "The Grand Lodge." A soprano solo was rendered by Mrs. Eleanor Smith, a contralto solo by Mrs. Harriet Hall, an extra number, a quartette was sung by the Minneapolis Elks' Quartet, Messrs McCullough, Stewart, Irwin and Ames, eulogized "Our Departed Brothers," John A. Sutton and C. W. Gerson, Atty. J. Louis Ervin, Gopher son in a Eldom." Mr. Chas. H. Miller Gopher eulogized "Our Departed Brothers in a Eldom." and especially Willis Jackson, Atty. W. R. Morris, Ames, rendered, "Thanatopsia." The Thanksgiving-Memorial sermon was delivered by Rev. Benjamin H. Hodge and made a very favorable impression with his masterful effort. The eulogy of Mr. Miller was especially pleasing, Messrs Halbert and Ervin sustained their reputations as usual. The offering was quite liberal and $35.00 was presented to Rev. Hodge and $11.00 to the church.
"SOME TIME!" SOME TIME IN THE FUTURE.
A few weeks ago, Mr. Hugo V. Koch, Federal Director of Labor received a friendly letter from Reg. Sergt. Maj. James K. Hilyard, 809 Pioneer Infantry in France, that pleased him so much that he sent it to Mr. Martin J. O'Malley, County Treasurer and President of the Draft Board of this district, with the request that a fitting reunion be gotten up for the boys on their return. Mr. O'Malley informed Mr. R. M. Johnson that he had made some financial arrangements to give the returning heroes a welcome with the proper eclat. So with the co-operation of these two gentlemen and the public big names may be confidentially looked forward to when all things are over over there. Walt and watch for it.

This company was appointed the first of last November.
Sick and accident policies are written for men and women and children from 30 days old, with weekly premiums from 5 to 50 cents and is very liberal with policy holders. Straight life and endowment policies are written. Also Fire Insurance.
All diseases of women including
complex cases are among the

MINNESOTA HAS BEEN ALLOTED
NINETY-TWO MILLION DOL-
LARS OF THE VICTORY
LIBERTY LOAN.
The Ninth District's quota is one
hundred and fifty-seven million
hundred thousand dollars, out of a
total for the nation our billion
hundred million dollars.
The rate of interest is four and
three-quarters per cent.
The unexpected small amount of the loan and the high rate of interest have brought great joy to the Liberty Loan Workers of the Ninth Federal Reserve District who will begin their campaign on Monday, April 21st. As announced by the Treasury Department the Victory Liberty Loan will take the form of gold notes maturing in four years. These notes will be exempt from State and Local taxes, except estate and inheritance taxes, and from normal federal income taxes. The notes will be convertible at the option of the holder throughout their life into three and three-quarter per cent four years note of like maturity and are exempt from all federal, state and local taxes except estate and inheritance taxes. The notes of both series will be dated and bear interest from May 20, 1919 and will mature on May 20, 1923. If the loan is over subscribed as is probable, only subscriptions of two thousand dollars and less will be allotted in full.
The terms of this issue have been based upon the desire to devise security which will not only prove attractive to the people but the terms of which will insure a good market for the notes and not affect adversely the market for the existing government securities Theo. Wold, Governor of the Federal Reserve Bank commented as follows: "The terms of the Victory Liberty Loan are so extremely favorable, the amount to be raised in this District is so comparatively small, that to my mind there is absolutely no doubt but that the loan will be promptly over subscribed in the Ninth Federal Reserve District." A. R. Rogers, chairman of the Central Liberty Loan Committee expressed eager satisfaction over the terms of the loan. "The Victory notes are the finest security ever issued by the United States," said Mr. Rogers, "people in this District and all over the United States will take them because they appreciate their value as an investment and because they believe in their government.
"The Treasury Department's announcement of terms should dispel the last trace of pessimism and this has been the cause of our only fear about the overwhelming success of the loan."
VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN
The following poems are from the prolific pen of Mr. E. G. Hinebough, and publisher of The Minneapolis Citizen, they speak for themselves.
"VICTORY."
"Victory"—The Magic Word, of the World,
Has crowned our efforts, with banners unfurled,
America's share, in Freedom's great work,
Is proof Uncle Sam, will never Duty shirk.
Pay Day, has come, for obligations, all square,
Contracted when "Our Boys" were, "Over There"
They did their duty, without fear, or fright,
And many were in, the greatest fight.
As Americans, for America, while earning homes here,
Let us pay up obligations, with a might cheer.
The "East Call" has come, in a patriotic tone.
Now subscribe all-together, for the "Victory" Loan.
"FINISH THE JOB."
The Master Minds, of the days old, Live in history, because they were bold,
While fighting in battles, or facing a mob,
Their only object, was, "Finish the Job."
The World's greatest War, just now past,
Where Crowns, and Empires fell, thick and fast,
Until suffering Nations, with many a sob,
Called on America, to "Finish the Job."
The Land of the Free, and the Home of the Brave,
Fought for Freedom, and the World to save.
Now let, every Citizen, Soldier, and Sailor "Gob"
Urge, the "Victory" Loan, and "Finish the Job."
