Buffington returned to Pittsburgh last night from a tour of Pennsylvania in the Interest of Liberty bonds. Judge Buffington has spoken much during the last 10 lays that his voice has become exhausted and ho was compelled to re turn nome ror rest.

Juage tsurcinsrion said: "For 5 years I have had the privelege of close association with the forelsn born people of our country Naturally because of this association and because of the more vital problems it entailed, I have always taken a deep interest in our aliens and naturalized citizens. During the last weeks my participation in the Liberty loan campaign has made It plain to me that thousands of our foreigners while they are loyal to their new country, are woefully ignorant of banking customs. Many of them have had unfortunate experience with unscrupulous persons of their own race in the conduct of what is generally known as one man banks. For this reason and because of their lack of knowledge of our banking Institutions. I find that In the bond campaign it is necessary to educate our foreign speaking people to get them Into the campaign as actual owners of bonds.

I regard this Liberty loan offer as a wonderful opportunity of the Gov ernmetit to get Into close touch with our foreign born people. It gives these people their first chance to render some service to their adopted country. ITALIANS PROMISE TO BUY. Judge Buffington said he had learned durine his speaking tour that of the 160.000 employes of the Pennsylvania railroad. 25,000 of them are foreigners In the first bond campaign 33 per cent of the Italians bought bonds.

43 per cent of the Irish and 33 per cent of the Germans. At a great mass meeting In Philadelphia last Sunday. Judge Bur- fington said that nearly 3.000 Italians stood up In the meeting and promised to buv second Liberty loan bonds. In Philadelphia Judge Buffington said organizations have been formed to buy SAVINGS 1 CAMPAIGN in a Is CHICAGO. Oct.

17. E. Hulbert. presi dent of the Merchants Loan and Trust Company, finds the attitude of farmers the present situation one calling for change. He said today: "The one weak spot in the situation the attitude of farmers.

They. will neither buy Liberty bonds, pay taxes, sell their products or fight. I hava asked many out of town bankers who have called here about farmers paying taxes, and I have learned of but one instance In which a farmer has paid an Income tax. They have profited through out the entire period of the war. but are unwUling to help the Government in any of the four ways mentioned.

"The controller of the currency has estimated the gross income of tha United, States to be about bonds for Germans. This expedient was necessary because many of these Germans are still property owners in Germany. If the German government should find that these people bought United Stated Government bonds, their property In Germany would be confiscated and their relatives subjected to great annoyance. The speakers who are covering the entire county and the adjoining counties have been asked by the central committee to urge everyone to wear their Liberty loan button. "Wear your will be the opening words and the closing words In all speeches.

The central committee through its members personally is asking that Liberty loan buttons be worn conspicuously. From today until the end of the campaign the bankers and business men In any way related to the campaign will wear their buttons on their coat lapels. This Is Intended to have a good moral effect upon thousands of other persons. To stimulate the sale of Liberty loan bonds, manufacturers of the Manchester and Woods Run districts held a meeting in the Manchester Savings Bank Tuesday night to arrange for a big drive in the Manchester district. It was decided to hold a mass meeting Friday night at 7:30 o'clock In the Manchester school.

Chateau street. The mass meeting will be preceded by a parade of employes of the various Industries of the district.
