Further discussion is unnecessary. This matter has been under consideration for six months, and there is not an intelligent man in Richmond who does not understand just what is involved. When the committee meets tonight it should recommend the ordinance for adoption by the Council, and Council should pass the ordinance just as promptly as its rules will permit.

The People and the War Loan
It is the part of patriotism for every citizen who is in position to do so to assist in financing the government war loan of $7,000,000,000 by becoming an investor in the bonds; which will be issued in small denominations to encourage their absorption by the people generally. Moreover, it is good business sense for them to invest a part of their savings in this way, as the bonds will be exempt from taxation, and the whole nation needs the quickening influences of a complete understanding of the spirit and meaning of the investment. With one or more, of these bonds in his possession, every investor will realize as never before that he is a stockholder in the financial operations of the greatest government on earth, and this knowledge will stimulate his interest in the sound conduct of his affairs.
