There still are questioning eyes across the Rhine. Our Boys over there with the Army of Occu pation even on the west bank of that river write home and tell us that already there's a sneer on Teutonic lips and an incredulity in their breasts as to the firmness of our pur pose, as to the solidity of our convictions of last year and the year before. They trunk the American people forget quickly. Let us show the World in this Victory Loan thdt we remember the menace of ruthless mili tarism, the inhumanity of mustard gas and worse things, the vandalism and ruin that mark the tracks of arrogant barbarism.
