Urges Drafting
Bond Statesmen
For Next Loan
Head of National City Company
Cites War Value Of Finan-
cial Experts

In the opinion Of Charles E. Mitchell,
president of the National City Company
and member of the Liberty Loan bond
distribution committee. the government
should draft into its service an army
of bond statesmen to aid in the distri-
button of future war loans. Mr.. Mitch
ell, in offering this suggestion yester-
day, said it is probable that by the
time the next Liberty Loan is ready for
fotation many statesmen who worked
hard for the success Of the s2,000.000,-
600 offering will be either in the mill
tsry or naval service of the United
States.
Men," he continued, "who are
trained financial experts should be
placed in department where their ex-
perience will be most valuable to the
government. By making them official
representatives. of the government,
their experience could better be util-
ICED as bond statesmen than in either
the army or navy, and they would still
be performing an act of patriotism
just as the soldier is doing his Bit"
Commenting on the great popular
success of the first Liberty Loan, Mr..
Mitchell said that before the offering
was made there were probably not more
than 100000 bondholders in the United
States. Now there are more than
100000.
Subscriptions TO the loan from the
New York Federal Reserve District
were unofficially estimated yesterday
at approximately Sl,l50,000,000. The
Liberty Loan committee stated that the
list would not be made public until all
subscriptions had been tabulated. This
may be done to-day, according to Ar
thur NJ. Anderson, executive manager
of the committee. The announcement
by the committee showed subscriptions
up TO noon last Saturday of Sl050,-
100000.
The committee on business conduct
of the Stock Exchange announced yes
terday that after an investigation OF
the sales of Liberty bonds last Friday
below par it had found no trace of
German influence" TO depress the
price of the bonds. Nor was evidence
uncovered that led the committee to
believe sales had been made for the
purpose of affecting market sentiment
unfavorably.
In most instances, it was said, the
selling was done by individuals who,
seeing the large oversubscription to
the loan, thought there would be no
harm in disposing of their participa-
ton. The man who sold the first block
of the bonds below par, a representa-
tive of the business conduct committee
stated, was so repentent over the effect
of the transaction that he Immediately
repurchased them at par and then CON
tributed 100000 to the Red Cross
fund. His name was not revealed.

sities-a thing as impossible as dawn
to express in words or TO miss in the
air-and one begins to understand what
sort OF future is opening for this Oldest
and youngest among the nations. With
thrift, valor, temperance and an idea
one goes far.
They are fighting now. as all civiliza-
ton fights, against the essential devil
dom of the Boche, which they know
better than we do in England, because
they were once his ally. To that end
they give, not wasting or sparing, the
whole Of their endeavor. But they are
under no illusions as to guarantees Of
safety necessary after the war, without
which their own existence cannot be
secured. They fight for these also, be-
cause, like the French, they are logical
and face facts TO the end.
Their difficulties, general and par
ticular, are many. But Italy accepts
these burdens and others in just the
same spirit as she accepts the cave
riddled plateaus, the mountains, the
unstable SHOWS and rocks and the in
conceivable toll that they impose upon
her arms. They are hard, but she is
harder.
Yet, what man can set out TO judge
anything? In a hotel, waiting for a
midnight train, an officer was speaking
of some of d'Annunzio's poetry, that
has literally helped to move mountains
in this war. He explained an allusion
in it by a quotation from Dante. An
old porter, waiting for our luggage,
dozed crumpled up in chair by the
veranda. AS ne caught the long swing
of the verse his eyes opened. his chin
came out Of his shirt front, till he sat
ike a little hawk on q perch, attentive
to each line, his foot softly following
its cadence.

nished All these models have the
sWagger lines of the moment, a full
flare over the skirt of the frock which
reveals itself for few inches between
coat-edge and buttoned walking boot,
exaggerated collars and cuffs, and
belts that give the loose yet trim coat
some original and unexpected differ
ence of line. The coat manufacturers
must have spent weeks and weeks
thinking up the new belts, so many
and varied are the belt notions.
Two types of frock are pictured;
one a dainty afternoon model of pussy
willow silk and the other a dashing
sport frock all in orange, black and
white. The afternoon frock of pussy
willow is in soft blue color printed
with a red rectangular figure. The
belt cuff, collar and apron front are
of white soiree silk, and an old de-
sign in red on the apron front gives
the frock much individuality. This
design is done in the new running
stitch. with ordinary sewing silk, the
hand stitches placed in close rows
until a solid effect is obtained. Paris
is using a great deal Of this sewing
silk embroidery and the red and blue
frock comes from Lanvin. The sport
frock has pleated skirt of white
tussah stitched above the hem with
rows of black and orange silk. This
stitching is done by machine, but the
apron front of the tunic shows the
running stitch embroidery just re-
ferred to. The crossing lines and en-
broidered figures are done with orange

The small black straw hat has crown

effect of this costume.
Visiting Day Costumes For The Bride
Whether she attends entertainments

The Easter trousseau includes some
fetching house gowns in the new Rus
sian straight, soft lines drawn
in under knotted sash. These house
gowns are of tussah, of soiree silk, of
chiffon and of Georgette and their
colors range from the richly dark to
the gorgeously Oriental. Gold thread
embroidery is favorite trimming.
House gowns of this luxurious type are
taking the place, just now, of the
conventional teagown of chiffon and
lace. More formal in type, for re-
ceiving at home, is the afternoon frock
Of pale blue French organdy with
notable sleeves that puff out amazingly
between cuff and armhole. The skirt
is gathered to the belt and the flounce
is gathered to the skirt, making the
gown as bouffant and airy as the big
sleeves. Soiree silk in self-tone is
used under the organdy, and silver
lace and a cluster of lavender flowers
make dainty trimming.
