LIVE UPDATES: Pro-Palestine Protesters Begin Encampment in Harvard Yard
The last chance for subscribing to the second issue of the Liberty Loan comes today. We are not ashamed of the part Harvard has taken in this work; indeed, the total student subscription compares favorably with those of any other university in the country. We do feel, however, that the number of individual subscriptions, being under 400, is not as high, as it should be. Those who have invested their money in government business have been liberal. And it is an investment; giving is not the word. The CRIMSON feels sure that a large number of undergraduates will not see this day pass without loaning the United States at east $50. Not only the sound business of it all will appeal to these men, but the fact that there is patriotism involved in this thing will influence everyone. We are wont to feel in times of peace that we are above patriotism. The coming of war only proves how sacred it is, especially when it is directed toward the good of the entire world. They who feel that the boundaries of the United States are too confined for their sympathies may reflect that these same Unites States are battling for principles exceeding boundaries. The country calls for money in the execution of this labor, and it is fierce, dangerous, killing, as well as costly labor. Today will see this government's demands more than fulfilled.
