The opening of the campaign tindj the Victory Liberty Loan organizi tion in every state, district, county and tity in splendid nhape and oauer to perforin the great task of obtain ing Fiihsci Iptlons to the full amount fl' 11k- quota allotted to the Tenth Federal Reserve district. According to the official announce ment made by Secretary Glass of the United Sates Treasury, -the Victory Liberty Loan will take the form of four and three-quarters per cent, thi i -f.).!r voir convertible . gold notes of the United States, exempt from state and local "taxes, except e:,tato and inheritance taxes. The notes will be convertible, at the option of the holder, throughout their li'e. into three and throe-quarters per cent three-four year conver tible gold notes of the United States, exempt from federal, rfate and local taxes, except e state and iHh riianee taxes. In a like manner, the three and three quarters per cent notes will be onvertitil' into the four and three-quarter per cent notes. In his announcement of the Cic tory Liberty Loan, Secretary Glass says: In his announcement of t' e Vic tim Treasury 'as been enidod largely by -the desire to advi?e a security which williot only prove attractive to the people of the country in the first instance, but the. terms of which ihould insure a good market for the notes aflrr the campaign Is over and Identical prices for the two series, and should not affect Injuriously the market for the existing bonds of the Liberty Ixmns. "This will be the last Liberty Loan Although as the remaining war bills are presented, further borrowing must be done, I anticipate that the requirf nients of the (Jovernnient, in excess of the amount of taxes and other Income can, in view of the de creHsinii scale of expenditure, be readily linanced by the issue of Trea sury ret illicit ten from time to time as heretofore, which may be ultima tely refunded by the issue of notes or bonds without the aid of another great popular campaign such a.i has Characterized the Libert Loans. "I am r.re that the people gf Am erica will mberibe -lo this Victory Ioan in the same spirit of patriotism which they have shown In the past, to V.e end that the notes may be widely distributed r.a possible, anl that our bankinc imdulions may be left free to supply the credit neces sary fo.r the purpose of industry and commerce an.
