THIRD LIBERTY LOAN

> ' : NtNE MILLION MORE I 'j LAST Wi-EIvS APPEAL * This week's responsibility for tlia people ol' New Zealand is to complete tlie Third. Liberty Loan Jiy* subscribing £9,213,000. We have confidence, states, the National War Loan Committee, that the people will not let down their* lighting men. For over three years the Dominion has maintained a wonderful war effort, overseas and fTt home tlie task naturally becomes Jiarder. We have readied the point wher& we have to do without no. food or reasonable, comforts or amusement but some- of our cash. It must go into the. Third Liberty Loan even if that means going short of ready monej'. This; is a plain duty to our sons and brothers in uniform. It woulct be hard for them if they saw that at last we were flagging; that wo were less keen to make .sacrifices when it becomes more dill'leu it* They could; understand a shortage of goods at home but they woukl be discouraged if the results of theLiberty Loan appeal showed that we were losing'our capacity to make a money sacrifice. They know quite well that there is no shortage of money here. Withi out loyal support behind the fighting front the actual fighting effort which preserves us and our assets wouldd fail and the assets pass out of our control. Four week's campaigning has produced such a splendid numerical response from all sections of the comi munity without exception that, subscribers now total 198,000 but Iff everyone in New Zealand who lias an obligation to answer the patriotic call of the Third Liberty Loan, does tlie right, thing the finals should. hc\ over three hundred thou-* sand and everyone who reads thist article would be included.
