CONSIDERED MICHIGAN'S DUTY
TO CONTRIBUTE GENEROUSLY
Personnel of Teams To Canvass Stu-
dents Will Be Announced
Later
The drive for the third Liberty Loan
campaign among the students will be
.naugurated on Tuesday morning,
April 16. This was the statement
made yesterday by Prof. Clyde E. Wil-
son of the engineering college, who
has been appointed chairman of the
campus committee.
"The drive is to be the most inten-
sive yet experienced," said Professor
Wilson. "As a war measure it will be
the biggest we have undertaken, and
will greatly affect the interest of the
allies in this country."
Emphasizes Michigan's Duty'
Professor Wilson said that the cam-
,pus committee will be announced
shortly, and that it will govern the
teams that are to be organized to con-
duct the canvassing among the stu-
dents. He emphasized the duty of
Michigan in the drive, and continued:
"It is the duty of every man or wo-
man called upon to respond freely and
enthusiastically to the call to this
work. All called upon will be sworn
in as officials and will- be expected to
promise to carry on whatever work
they may be assigned. The committee
hopes that those called will not hesi-
tate or argue, but will respond, as
every patriotic citizen. should, with
'Aye, aye sir.' . There is plenty of
work for all of us, and work we
must."
Makes Appeal to Duty
"ve owe it to ourselves, our homes,
and our country in this great crisis to
come out and do our bit," he contin-
ued. 'Each one of us must do some-
thing individually for the cause we
are struggling for. We must begin to
prepare now, not only to work for the
success of the third drive, but also
for the actual sale of bonds.' Having
been warned as to the time which is
to mark the opening of the sale of
bonds, we should be ready at the ap-
pointed period to lend everything in
our power toward the successful con-
clusion of our undertaking. Let us
get together and put it 'Over the Top,'
for liberty, democracy, and the United
States of America."
