...have talked with several French and English attaches since we declared war. In the beginning they were skeptical as to our ability to produce a suitable motor; our Liberty Motor answered their doubts.

Finally we convinced them that we could make the requisite number and quality of propellors,--a difficult problem. One can not help but express considerable satisfaction at the task we have accomplished under the skilled guidance of our allies...

Residents rallied to the war service cause with an enthusiasm and generosity that can never be forgotten.

It means in many cases painful business readjustments, and it will not take place in a day, but the interests of the whole are certainly above those of the few. Leave your savings in the bank, where they will find investment, or buy Liberty Bonds. Pity the well-meaning though selfish business man, who shouts from the housetops "business as usual," but learn that wars are won through economy in non-essentials, rather...
