LIBERTY LOAN
INTEREST RATES

Secretary McAdoo officially cor
reefs statement appearing in va
rious newspapers that the Fourth
Liberty Loan will bear interest at the
rate of A liz per cent. He states that
no thought has been entertained of
issuing the bonds of the fourth loan
at higher rate than A IL per cent.
1t is interesting to recall here the
Secretary appeal to his Third Liberty
Loan speeches that the rate of inter-
est for Government loans be stabil-
lied at LIZ per cent. He said then
chat as an intelligent people we should
make stand for the financing Of our
Government during the period of the
war at stabilized rate of interest,
naming A IL per cent as the proper
figure, so that all business and in
yestments might be adjusted on that
basis. In his letter to Majority Lea
der Kitchin he strongly urges stabii-
izing the rate at 1-2 per cent.
The Secretary of the Treasury has
also asserted he did not think that
the patriotism of the American peo-
pie was measured by the rate of in
terest on government bond, and the
support of the people gave the Third
Liberty Loan seems to have justified
his belief.

REVENUE LEGISLATION

Only fair, equitably distributed
taxation of the widest incidence and
drawing chiefly from the sources
which would be likely to demoralize
credit by their very abundance can
prevent initiation and keep our indus
trial system free of speculation and
waste. We shall naturally turn,
therefore, l suppose, to war profits
and incomes and Injuries for the adj
ditional taxes
But the war profits and incomes
upon which the increased taxes will
be levied will be the profits and in
comes of the calendar year 1918. 1t
would be manifestly unfair to wait
until the early months of 1919 to say
what they are to be. 1t might be diff
ficult, | should imagine, to run the
mill with water that had already gone
over the wheel.
Moreover, taxes of that sort will
not be paid until the June of next
year, and the Treasury must antici-
pate them.
