Facts Concerning the. Second
 Liberty Load.

From the Liberty Loan State Central Committee, Phoenix, Arizona.
 There is now offered to the American people a new issue of $3, ,OOO, GOO, 900 of bonds, known as the Second Liberty Loan, for purpose of providing the sinews of war.
 The Second Liberty Loan bonds bear 4% interest. You are asked to lend your money, upon the soundest security in the world for a period of ten to twenty-five years.
 Your interest will be pad twice a year, November 18th and May 18th.
 No tax ss long as yon live on any purchase not above $5,00O.
 Buyers of the first Liberty Bonds began to draw interest on June 18th.
 Your bonds have not been de livered because the Government felt that you would wish a AZ bond, for unless your income is over $1OO, 900 per year, the new fours are a more desirable invest ment than the 3a% bonds of the first issue.
 In order to save money the Government stopped printing the 33% bonds.
 If you are absolutely sure you want S3% bond and not 4%. your hank will get 1t for you. The 4E for which you exchange the old 33% will be delivered November 18th at no expense for exchange, and without loss of in- terest.
 The new 40 bonds in amounts from $50 to 5000 will be delivered October 18th. Your bank will allow you to buy bonds of small denominations up- on the installment basis; 1O% down and 10% per month until paid for.
 The banks will buy and hold these bonds for you until paid for at 4% interest on unpaid balance. This is the amount of interest you are getting paid.
 We fight for peace--for just and lasting peace.
 To secure these ends we appeal to every man and woman who re- sides upon the free soil of Ameri- ca to buy Liberty Bond.
