CONGRESS TO DECIDE
Size OF LIBERTY LOAN
McAdoo Sets Anniversary of
U. S. Entry Into War
as Date
WASHINGTON. March ..

Congress will determine the number
of billions the Government Is to borrow
In the third Liberty Loan.
The date had been formally set by
Secretary McAdoo as April G, anniver-
sary of Americas debut into the world
conflict.
The standing authorization for Gov
ernment bonds stood today at S3600.-
10000 AS the big loan Is to go much
past this figure, nIcAdoo said last night
he will ask Congress for new autoriza-
tion.
Besides the added sums to be bor-
rowed under the coming loan, this au-
thorization. Il appeared likely. will make
provision for the other big loans which
must be hoated before many more
months pass to pay the nations ever
mounting war bills
That Congress will do McAdoo's bid
ding was not seriously questioned. That
divers proposals will be offered, designed
principally to restore the stability Of tire
Liberty Loan market was, however. re-
garded certain from recent congressional
talk.
The third loan will step before the
national footllghts on April 6, with a
packed audience OF eager Americans.
Never In history will national loan
have entered with such elaborate prep
arations to give II a whirlwind send off
and keep it moving.
Millions Of graphic posters; thousands
of speakers and the personal efforts of
millions OF workers already at work
will carry the liberty gospel into the
country's every corner.
THE campaign" said Secretary Nc
Adoo, should begin with great demon
strations of patriotism in every city.
town and hamlet in the country. ON
this date, April 6. every American should
pledge anew to his Government the full
measure OF his resources and resolve
to make every required sacrifice in the
same fervent spirit that impels our
gallant sons in the trenches of France
and on the waters of the Atlantic to
shed their blood in Americas sacred
cnuep"

WASHINGTON, March ..


While conferees today got down to
work on the railroad control bill, the
Senate prepared to pass the war finance

Both these vital war bills are ex-
pected to be made law by President
Wilson'S signature before March Is.
Though the House Ways and Means
Committee has not yet concluded hear
ings on the finance corporation bill,
it Is expected that its passage will take
but short time when it Is reported out.
An insurgent movement having pre-
vented the passage of the bill by the

This insurgent movement resulted in a

concern with which he is either directly
or indirectly connected.
This provision, sponsored by Senator
Pittman, Nevada, will force directors
of the corporation to sever all connection

measure the Judiciary Committee tried

the war agencies to obtain greater eff

in the committee would be broken.
