THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
OCTOBER 12,
The Enemy Is Watching
By NEWTON D. BAKER, Secretary of War
The supreme moments of our struggle
with Germany have now come.
We have carried our first armies across
three thousand miles of ocean and joined
the issue of battle with the military power
of a nation that has been for forty years
preparing its plans and its' weapons for its
present attempt to dominate the world. We
have had to put forth an immense effort
and spend a fabulous sum in order to make,
in so short a time, an adequate beginning
for our gigantic task.
But it is only our beginning. We must
follow it with greater energy and support
it with increasing power. Men, munitions,
ships and supplies must go to Europe in a
larger and larger stream. We must re-
double our blows and add constantly to the
strength of those blows, if our initial effort
is not to be wasted.
This Means That Our Fourth Liberty Loan Must Be Larger
Than Its Predecessors, More Enthusiastically Sup-
ported and More Quickly Than Ever Subscribed
The enemy is watching anxiously for
the first sign that we are faltering.
Our Government Loans should go "over
the top" as eagerly as our soldiers do, in
order to carry with them the terror of furi-
ous attack. Our dollars must rain upon
the enemy as overwhelmingly as our hail
of bullets or our storm of shells.
We are fighting for the liberty of the
world, for the triumph of our ideals of
democracy and self-government over the
last great advocate of force upholding in-
justice. We are buying with our Liberty
Loans the security and joy of our people
for generations to come. No price could
be too high to pay for such a victory — no
cost too great for such a purchase.
Lend the Way Our Boys Fight
To Your Very Utmost!
