WAR FUND Opening of Campaign in City Shows Patriotic Re sponse in Subscriptions WILL NOT HURT BANKS This Shows How Easy It Is to Buy a Bond YOU need not bo a rich man; or a rich woman, to help Uncle Sam win the war. You can buy a $50 Liberty Bond, or a $100 one. If you want a $50 share your first payment will bo only ?1 with more than a month to make the sec ond payment of ?9. The last pay ment will not be due until the end of August. Many business houses, large em ployers of labor and some of the banks have devised plans whereby small investors may buy Liberty J3onds and pay for them in smaller installments than provided for by the Government's direct offer. Some of these plans extend the payments over a year. Pay for a $50 Liberty Bond this way: $1 down. $0 on Juno 28. $10 on July 30. $15 on August 15. $15 on August 30. These bonds are as good as gold. They pay 3' per cent interest and are not subject to Government or State tax. When the war revenue bill passes Congress it is probable that a tax on bonds will bo included, thus making Liberty Bonds the best possible investment. Philadelphia today Is responding nobly to the call of Undo Sam. and cut of the lank vaults, pay envelopes of workers and the strongboxes of housewives a stream ot money Is being converted Into Liberty Bonds. Today, or twenty-four hours after the financial men of the city mobilized to float Philadelphia's share of the bond Issue, It Is certain that the effort will be succcsssful. In every section of the city and from mry .element of Its population the bond salesmen who are donating their time to tha Goernment are winning the co-operation of the people. Bankers, business man and Industrial managers have entered tha "buy-a-bond campaign" with genuine enthusiasm, and through their co-operation the commit tee In charge feels certain that every homo in the city will be canvassed. Figures deal. Ing with tho volume ot business being Uono are not available, but an Idea concerning the spirit of Philadelphia Is contained in the meager reports filed with tho com mittee at Us headquarters, 108 South Fourth stieet. ' (The Philadelphia Saving Fund Society, Seventh and Walnut streets, has subscribed for Jl.000,000, and tho First National Bank ft Bethlehem has taken a similar amount. INDUSTRIALS AID iMs morning the Pennsylvania Railroad Announced, that through the Mutual Bene ficial Association of Its employes It plans to nut a bond Into the hands of every one la. tti army ot 150,000 workers. If each employe buys a. $50 bond it will meu a subscription of ?7,600,000. Cir culars describing the loan are to be sent to the railroad workers, and, to make It possible for the workers to buy bonds, the railroad ha3 arranged to sell them on an Installment basis. Subscriptions may be made, without expense, through tho Mutual Beneficial Association for one or mora bonds that range in denomination fiom $50 to $1000. Kmployes can purchase a bond on the basis of $10 down and $10 a month or arrange payment on a monthly basis. The payments will be deducted from pay envelopes when workers choose that plan. At the Baldwin Locomotive Works, Cramps' Shipbuilding plant, Mldale Steel Works and scores of other business and In Juttrlal organizations similar plans are being worked out. "A Liberty Bond Is a mortgage on the United States," according to the committee, and with this fact impressed upon their minds the bond salesmen nre trying to Jnake It possible for every man In the city to hold a mortgage.
