I Washington, Aug. 1.-The campaign
for the fourth liberty loan will open
Saturday, Sept. 2s, and continue three
weeks, ending Oct. 10, it was an
nounced last night by Secretary Nc
Adoo.
e In fixing three weeks as the length
Of the campaign for the fourth liberty
loan, instead Of four weeks as n pre-
yious loans, treasury officials plan for
q more intensive campaign. A shorter
campaign it was said will also enable
more business men to enlist as work
ers.
The date of the campaign was an
nounced at this time in order to allow
campaign organizations to prepare for
the sale Of bonds and to prevent the
planning Of other campaigns which
might interfere with the flotation Of
the loan.
Altho official announcement has not
been made, the amount of the loan
probably will be sS.000 000, 900, and the
rate Of interest which the bonds will
bear willebe ~ per cent, Should the
treasury decide soon to place in mar
ket certificates of Indebtedness re-
deemable next June when taxes. arc
paid, the amount of the loan may he
reduced.
