EVERYONE MUST HELP.
Wars cannot be fought without money, and upon the Treasury centers
every financial demand upon the Nation.
The rich of this country cannot alone meet the need# of the Nation;
the men of the country cannot do It alona; the women of the country
cannot do It alone; but all of ua, the people of the United States, disre-
garding partisanship, forgetting selfish interests, thinking only of the
supremacy of right and determining to vindicate the majesty of American
Ideala and secure the safety of America and civilisation, can do the great
and splendid work which God has csMed upon us to do.
W. G. McADGO.
Secretary of the Treasury.
