Ten thousand Ford “baby” tanks equipped ,witb two Ford engines, would have been on the front line by the t ime the Victory Liberty loan is to be floated. They, would have been supported by thousands of the French , “whippet” type tanks and the big 35ton American, tanks driven by Liberty' I motors. We had u France and in use at the army at home, 57,<’>07 trucks of two, three and five toys capacity, 11,476 ambulances. 18,375 motorcars and 29,421 motorcycles. - Our merchant marine was growing at tlie rate of 400.000 tons dead weight per month when the war ended, and we were turning'out about 10.000 airplane engines a week, with planes to carry them. German spies found tills out. German spies knew that the li-bont had failed because of the barrage of mines that the British and American navies had strung across the North sea. German spies sent word to the general staff that in spite-of'their best efforts to check the Americans m> the home base, they were'outgeti niled. -S.. tile German staff learned that the Americans had thrown their unlimited resources inter the scales with tin- allies, and the German stuff turned "yeiluw” and quit. That mighty preparation of which the above is but a fragmentary tale, is the reason why the Victory Liberty loan Is ttie last of the war loans. Had ; the war gone on there would have : been a fifth, a sixth, a seventh, an eighth loan —loans until the German hordes bad been crushed and sent back t into the heart of the fatherland. The need for these waa eliminated by the mailed fist of. our great preparation, which supplemented the gigantic efforts pilt forth by our allies. “Let us,- then.” as secretary of the treasury has said, “with thanksglv- j Ing to God that we were spared any greater price, meet the Inmnrahle com- • mituienls of our government commit* 1 ed In behalf of the freedom of the i world.” '

DR: JOHNSON WRITES FRIEND; RUSSIA BOUND

Dr Johm.-on has w-ritten Fred Hamilton nr,- of-the keen disappointment that his ns a result of his " he:npr sent to Russia instead of being pi -mitted to board a liner for the dear old U.S.A. ~ Vallet. Franc". March 29, 191,9. T presume you* are home by this time and musing over the past, with little in the way of sorrow. Until a few days ago I thought I -was on the way home, but tonight I am packing to start in the other direction, i Though some strange stroke of for- I tune my name has been pulled from the bag and added to the Hoover Food Commission for duty. In a very few days I start for Warsaw and on to St. Petersburg on some sort o|jp mission having to do with feeding of the Russians. Just what I will gain in the way of professional j knowledge I am not prepared to say, -but there will undoubtedly be something in the way of experience mixing up with a gang of Bolsheviks. Have been promised to return to the U. E. either in June or July. You can imagine the fit of rage and ultimate depression following such disappointment.* However, I can stand it over here two or three months longer. It is my last appearance on this side, but something seems to stretch it over a longer stay than I would like..
