FURTHER TAXATION
WITH MORE BONDS
McAdoo Says We Do Not Know
Where We Stand AS Yet
Expenses Great.

Washingto:,, Nov. 13.-The cha
otic conditicr5 e. world finance
makes it necessary for the American
people to prepare for further heavy
taxation and bond issues, Secretary
McAdoo warned Tuesday.
"We do not know exactly where
we stand" McAdoo said. eve know
there are hundreds of millions yet
which the War Department must
spend but we do not know how long
the heavy burden will last. Of this
much we are sure. There must be
more liberty bonds and there must
be a long season for heavy taxes.
Further. credits are expected to be
made to the Allies. But he said even
this is an unknown quantity. Their
financial situation is not unlike Am
erca's he said. For that reason the
demands they will make upon its
Government for the moment cannot
be determined.
McAdoo would not say definitely
what must be done with the loans
already made to the Allies. At pres
ent this obligation, now nearly 49,
600, 100000 is in the form of de-
mand paper: Treasury officials have
planned to convert it into bonds of
the various governments with a ma
turity date the same as our first Lib
erty Bonds. McAdoo said this nec-
essarily must be held in abeyance
however pending determination Of
the other nations financial prob
lens.
Establishment of credit with GER
tain South American nations were
limited at as likely. Resumption of
trade regulations however gradual,
will make necessary the placing of
loans in the hands of some of the
Latin-American countries it was ex-
planned.
McAdoo said treasury officials
have begun consideration of amorti-
cation plans to meet the payments
of Liberty loans. The first big dis
bursement which the treasury must
make back to the American people,
is the redemption of war savings
stamps which will fall due in 1928.
