basis, the federal reserve bank of New York, in conjunction with the liberty loan committee, is perfecting a plan for the issuance of participation cer- tificates, it was announced tonight.
 The certificates will probably be in denominations of s10 will bear the same interest as bonds and may be ex- changed for bonds when the holders accumulate $50 worth.
 Although it is not proposed to have the certificates negotiable in the sense of s10 bank notes, the committee points out that they may become so in course of time, this depending entirely upon merchants and others to whom they may be rendered. The committee expresses hope stores will buy the certificates and sell them over the counters to persons who would like to buy bonds, but whose means will not permit them to invest as much as $50 or $100 at one time.
 Another plan was announced by the League for Cooperative Sayings and Loan Associations. Any individual with ST. the lea que has decided, nav purchase a bond on installments, with the understanding that the balance may be paid a the option of the buyers
 
 Under this plan, in the event tho subscriber fails to pay for the bond within year. he may get back at any time the amount he has subscribed | with the accumulated interest at the rate of 3h per cent based on monthly balances" saws the annourcamer+ "The organization makes no charge for | the service"
 The league states it's offer is open to all and thatN"purcha sers are not TO- | nuirnd to furnish references of any | sort"
 The federal reserve bank of New York issued a statement tonight that 1 it had established a special rate of re-discount of 3k per cent for paper given for the purpose of purchasing liberty loan bonds of the government about to be issued, such paper having ! a maturity of not exceeding 9n days '' 1 This special rate, it was said will apply only to the re-discount of paper which has been secured by a pledge from the , customer to the member bank of United States bonds or interim receipts therefor or United States certificates Of indebtedness.
 | In 2 letter today to Guv Eme~son, 1 secretary of publicity of the liberty l toan committee, tOlOnef IheOQOre 1 Roosevelt asserted it is "the duty of every man and woman in this country who can possibly afford to do so to buy liberty bonds in order that glne ammunition. food and clothes may be promptly and freely furnished to ou1 soldiers who go to the front" Colonel Roosevelt said he had invested in the

WILSON INSISTS CENSORSHIP MUST
 BE ESTABLISHED
TRepubIicar A. p. Leased Wlre1

WASHINGTON, May 22.-Decision of house republicans in caucus today to oppose any newspaper censorship provision in the pending espionage bill was followed by letter from President Wilson to Chairman Webb of the judi ciary committee reiterating that it was
 imperative congress grant censorship powers to deal with the few persons who cannot be relied upon to observe patriotic reticence about everything
 whose publication could be of injury"
 T have been very much surprised,
 wrote the president, to find several
 of the public prints stating that the
 administration had abandoned the po-
 sition which it so distinctly took and
 still holds, that authority to exercise censorship over the press to the ex- tent that the censorship is embodied in the recent action of the house is ab- solutely necessary to the public safety. It, of course has not been abanuoned
 because the reasons still exist why such authority is necessary for the pro- lection of the nation.
 T have every confidence that the great majority of the newspapers of the country will observe patriotic reticence about everything whose pub licatiOn could be of injury, but in every
 country there are some persons in a position to do mischief in this field who cannot be relied upon and whose in terests or desires will lead to actions
 on their part highly dangerous to the
 nation in the midst of a war. 1 want to say again that it seems to me inn perative that powers of this sort should | be granted"
 The house espionage bill carried a censorship provision but the one pass | ed by the senate did not and this was one of the differences which sent the measure to conference where it has 1 been discussed for more than a week l without an agreement.
 The presidents letter caused some
 surprise because many members of | congress and Some administration i leaders had understood that no flIrthe, attempt was to be made at present to put through any sucn provls.on. nep-
 resentatlve Webb announced upon re- celpt Of the presidents letter that he would wage a determined fight in be-
 haf Of the censorship amendment.

 ing to enslave the world" MT. McAdoo referred to the new democracy of Rus sia. ito whose people we have just ex- tended recognition and to whom 1 have just, in the exercise of powers con- ferred upon me by congress, extended a credit of one hundred million dollars to let them understand that America s profession of friendship and support are not lip service"
 This is the only kind of war, MT. Me N90o Snid 'r which the Tnited States could afford to engage. "We would not go into any war for material ends. We would not lift a finger to take a square inch of the soil O. any other nation. We do not want any indemnities or any compensation for what we do in this war. We are fighting for an ideal, which is the only thing that makes any nation great. We do not irtord to rn drawn on the chariot wheels of any mill itary autocrat, as poor. bleeding bel- gium has been for the past three years and as Serbia has been for the same period of time.
 And when Amerioa sits at that coun- cil table of peace she must bear upon her brow the crown of justice and in her eyes must shine the light of liberty and love of humanity.
 That is the problem" he continued. What must we do to meet it? Wars cannot be fought without money. The first step in this war the most effective step that. we could take, was to pro- vide the money for its conduct" MT. McAdoo then related the momen- tarv steps already taker-the authnri- zation by congress of a five billion dol lar credit and the extension by the gov ernment of credits totaling $625 5.000,00C to the entente allies.
 But it makes DO difference" he added, "how much credit we extend; we are extending it for a service which is i essential for our own protection. ] This money is not going out of the country he said. "All of this financing i is largely a matter of shifting credits | it is not going to involve any loss oi i gold; it is not going to involve any loss of values. These moneys are going tt

 It was a determined effort to pass the s, 500, 000, 900 war revenue bill with out further delay the house remained in session tonight under an agreement to continue debate until after midnight and to bring the measure to a final vote before adjournment if possible
 Attention centered throughout the evening upon the proposed advance in second class mail rates, against which Republican Leader Mann and others waged a vigorous fight. As substi- ute for the original section in the bill, the ways and means committee Tn the afternoon had brought in a new plan of progressive increases based upon the present parcel post zones, under which the highest rate ultimately would be six cents a pound.
 Nearly all of the contested sections had been completed when the second class mail proposal was taken up under an agreement that it should be debated three hours.
 The tariff section, adding ten per cent to all duties now imposed and taxing nearly all articles now on the free list ten per cent, was retained after Representative Lenroot of Wis c0nsin had strived unsuccessfully to eliminate the increase on sugar.
 An amendment was written into the clause in the postal section adding one cent to all first class mail charges to provide that the rate on letters for local delivery remain at two cents.
 Following is the ways and means committees schedule of second class mail matter charges:
 Effective July First zone, one and one-sixth cents per pound; second and third zones, one and one-third cents; fourth and fifth zones, one and two thirds cents; sixth zone. two cents; seventh zone, two and one-third cents and eighth zone two and two-third cents.
