New York Bankers Not As One on
 New Loan Rate

New York, June 21-Bankers man ifest keen interest in the announce ment from Washington that the Trea- sury had "indicated'' that it's ten tative" plans for the next Liberty Loan called for an issue of $6,OO0, ,O00,- 900 of IA per cent. bonds, the cam paign to open early in October.
 Bankers were disinc1ined to com ment upon this program for quotation, but inquiries showed that a differ ence of opinion exists in respect to the feasibility and desirability of trying to float a loan at IA per cent. It was generally agreed, however, that it was too early definitely to determine the rate, especially in view of the uncer- tainties of the Iew revenue legis1a- tion and of developments in the fn- vestment situation.
 A number of the leading bankers believe that the next Liberty Loan will have to bear interest at least at 1-2 per cent, and it is their opinion that Secretary McAdoo will be obliged to alter his decision not to float govern ment loans at a rate in excess of IA per cent, especially in view of the fact that the current market price of the 1-4 per cent. bonds of the Third Liberty loan is about 9s. Although bankers believe that allowance should be made for the element of patriotism in fixing the rate of interest on gov ernment bonds, at the same time they feel that government bonds should be somewhat in line with existing money rates and prevailing investment secur- | ity levels.
 It was pointed out that much would depend upon the tax-exemption fea- lures of the new loan. It was said that the extension of the exemption accorded the first $5,o00 of bonds to S50,00O of bonds, as has been suggest ed in Congress, would materially help the distribution of the next loan.

Foe Crosses Railroad Near Nervesce Station
 And Is Safely Held

(Continued from Page One.) this position would be more important than the withdrawal from a few kilo- metres of ground along the Piave. Thee coalitions there are also bad, owing to the wooded hills, which are crossed by 72 ravines, each of which constitutes a separate line of defense. Many of them are still strewn with dead, an indication of the intensity of the Austrian resistance as the enemy was slowly pressed back from points he had won in the first rush.
 The Austrians, early in the ofens- i've, had almost half the plateau, but now they have only about one-third, including many of their best posi- tons, such as the town of Nervesa, which has been set on fire by the Italian artillery.
 No fear is felt in Venice that the Austrians will get there. The cor respondent, on visiting the city, found an absence of excitement, and there was no intention to leave on the part of the inhabitants.
 Large stocks of bandages which the American Red Cross has had on hand | in Venice for the last few months have been most useful to the Italian wounded. A number of cases have been turned over to the British Red Cross at the request of Lord Monson, British Red Cross commissioner. | Italian Army Headquarters, Thurs day, June 20.---The first American av- iators to fly on the Italian front went today on a bombing expedidtion, and succeeded in blowing two holes in a new Austrian bridge across the Piave river.
 The commander of the Italian avia- ton camp expressed satisfaction with the work of the Americans.

H|NDENBURGKEPT
At SAFE DISTANCE
"Superman" Had Under
ground Refuge Days Trip
From Sound of Big Guns.
KAISER ALSO VERY TtMID

SPA, Belgium, December Is (Corre-
spondence of the Associated Press).-
The former headquarters of the kaiser
and his general staff is disclosing
some extraordinarily queer facts these
days about the men who engineered
the world war. Take, for one, Hin
denburg, Germany's superman, around
whom reams of poetry have been
written disclosing him as a feaT-
less Napoleon leading his troops
to victory. AS a matter of fact, he
spent a great deal of time in won
dcrfully constructed funk hole,' or
dugout. underneath the. grounds of
his villa here.
Spa, IT may be noted. is almost on
the German border and so far from
where battle lines used to be that II
was almost a days journey In last
motor car to get within sound of the
big guns The kaiser, too, had
similar hiding place at Neubo1S, near
a comic opera trench system, about
which he is said to have paraded for
the benefit of motion pictures.
Quick to Seek Shelter.
At each of their villas there were
delicate electrical instruments which
would set up furious buzzing when
ever an airplane approached anywhere
near. At the first sound from this
continuance Hindenburg and the kali
ser used to run to shelter, it is re-
ported. People who worked about
iHindenburgs establishment said that
he was continually running Tor cover.
Americas representatives on the in
ternational armistice commission are
now occupying Hindenburg's headquar-
tiers, and they were amazed when they
discovered this underground refuge OF
the great warrior. The entrance was
flight of steps led down to tiled ante
room which, by the way, now serves as
a very good pantry for the Americans.
From the tiled room there was
another flight of steps that led down to
the real dugout. This was blocked by
a huge iron door about one inch in
thickness, which could be locked from
the inside only. Within it was fastened
Nv a double bolt, which would do credit
to an American banking establishment.
Is Luxuriously Equipped.
The dugout itself was luxuriously
equipped. On the floor was a heavy
Powered carpet and a Louis XIV table
and chairs added to the artistic ar
rangement The walls, which were of
corrugated iron. were painted solid
white, and the. whole place brilliantly
Illuminated by electricity. On q little
table was an electric fan to keep the
marshal cool in summer. while an cleo
trio stove provided for heat in winter.
The room was about fourteen by twelve
feet. and was protected by four to six
feet Of earth above it
The emperor's dugout was similar, ex-
cept that it was much deeper UNDER
ground, and there were two entrances.
one through the villa and the other
from the grounds. The main entrance
was from the house and led down a long
fight of steps.
Another touch to the picture was
added today, when German resident
of Atx-la-Chapelle told the oorre-
spondent Of the Associated Press that
tho crown prince spent virtually an OF
his time in amusement.
