WHAT YOUR LIBERTY BOND BUYS

What is to be done with all the money that is being asked for on the Fighting Fourth Liberty Loan? Pay for battleships, submarines, and a thousand other things to be used by our boys on the land, on the Sea, in the air and under the sea. To complete a single battleship now under construction requires $23,075,000, and a battle cruiser takes $24,900,000. A scout cruiser takes $7,1220,000, and a deStroyer $1,590,000. A coast submarine costs $850,000 and a seagoing submarine $1,430,000. For artillery, automatic rifles, and small arms, and for ammunition for them, we have spent $3,700,000,000. Every Liberty Loan subscriber helps to arm our soldiers. More than 120,000,000 has been spent just for staple supplies for our army, such as flour, bacon, rice, etc. Every subscriber to the Liberty Loan help* feed our soldiers.
