BUYING LOAN IS LIRE INSURING ONE'S PAY Purchases Aid National Credit Which, in Turn, Helps Busi . ncss, Says Folwell By NATHAN T. FOLWELL I'ormer Prldent Manufacturers' Club. Composing one of the greatest Indus trial communities In the United States, Phlladelphians hold a relation toward the Victory Liberty Loan of peculiar reeponslblllty to tho nation and to themselves. , As truly nnd as directly as we Phlla delphians are earning our living by our own exertions, so do wo depend for the opportunity to earn It on the na tional credit. Far too many of us find tho meaning of these words, "the na tional credit," as nebulous as the nebu lar hypothesis. All we know Is the pay envelope. But the national credit rests largely on business prosperity, and that ln turn rests on business credit, which, on the whole, ls founded on the money avail able f,or banking accommodation, Without If ln ample measure foY loanf to business of all kinds retail, whop salo and Industrial business In. nana strung. It can no moro go on than horse whose leg muscle has been severed. All enterprise now, confronts condi tions demanding every support that can bo legitimately brought to bear. That which ls Imperatively required Is ac commodation funds to tho, full extent of the banks' resources. If the workers of this great Industrial community will employ the Intelligence Inspired by their own self-interest; If they will Invest ln tho sato and very profitable Victory Liberty Loan the sav ings from their pay envelopes, they will make It needless for the bank! to U up In securities the money so urgently needed for accommodating the very en terprises that make the pay envelope possible. Buying tho loan Is not mere ly Investment. It ls not only patriotism. It Is insurance for tho pay envelope, and endowment Insurance at that. Tho banks cannot take the loan with out tying up their funda They cannot tie up their funda without denying to business the credits on which, business operates. And business cannot earn profits or produce pay envelopes unless It has credit on which to operate. Tho Victory Liberty Loan Is' tho pay envelope's Indispensable Insurance. The pay envelope cannot afford to rely on others to protect It now. It must pro tect Itself by buying the loan. dean rpeu- JL9 !

So wrote a starving preacher to a medical school. For more than fifty years lie had labored day and night 'to make men better citizens; and this was his reward from ypu, you who are supposed to have the ideals that saved the world at war. Do you think this exaggeration? It is but a fraction of the truth'. There are thousands of preachers in this, your country, too old and ill to work, who are penniless. Christianity founded this country; its preachers pioneered the plains; it is the basis of this greatest republic; it is your insurance of progressive peace. The churches are an economic investment because: They keep men fit for their work; edu cate them to the responsibilities of tljeir . , , . work; give them a love of law and order. You pension tlie faithful worker; will you pension the preacher who has made the worker faithful? Invest in the church and be paid in industrial progress.
