At a meeting of the undergraduate committee for the sale of Liberty Bonds last night, it was decided to appoint a sub-committee to assist in canvassing the University. The personnel of the sub-committee will be announced in Thursday morning's CRIMSON and a meeting will be held that evening at 7 o'clock.
It is obvious that the people of the country, collectively and individually, must reduce unnecessary expenditures as much as possible immediately. In buying a Liberty Bond, the undergraduate will not only do his share in economizing and saving, but will also help the Government in successfully carrying on the war.
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo is coming to Boston a week from today to address a mass meeting on the Liberty Loan. He has been touring the country in order to arouse interest among individuals in the loan. The response of the West has been very satisfactory, but what he is anxious to impress on the people is the importance of subscriptions from individuals as well as from corporations. Not only will the people's money be securely invested, but a large popular subscription will indicate that the country is solidly in the war.
A suggestion has been made to the Boston committee that on June 5, registration day, all theatres, baseball parks, and other places of amusement will be asked to give their receipts for the purchase of bonds which shall be presented as gifts to various charities. This would be but one more way of giving everyone a share in the loan.
