To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

From newspaper reports that the Liberty Loan is not succeeding as we all wish it were, it behooves everyone to look about for means of changing the situation. I wish to propose a means whereby the government will be aided, the college will be benefited, and the spirit of the Class of 1921 placed where no one can doubt its sincerity.

From the HARVARD ALUMNI BULLETIN we find that there are 547 students in the Freshman class. We may allow 47 for the number of men who are in a position unable to push the plan. If, through teams of four or six men, each Freshman Hall could be canvassed and two dollars secured from each man, a Liberty Bond of $1,000 could be bought. This security would be held by the University for a definite period, to be decided by the class. This money at 4 per cent. compound interest, would, if compounded semi-annually, amount to $3,185 in twenty-nine years, or at our twenty-fifth anniversary; in fifty years to $7,460; in one hundred years to $54,200 and in 2021 to $63,500.

Such a sum of money--$63,500--could be utilized for a work designated by the class. This money would benefit the college at some future date, would be a monument to the class for all time, and would bring the Second Liberty Loan of 1917 nearer--truly only a little, but nevertheless nearer--a successful completion NOW.
