.. LIBERTY b LOAN
Announced By Secretary Me-
Adoo;; Provide for Raising
Three Billions,

WASHINGTON, April 4.-secre-
tary McAdoo- has issued this state-
ment on the Liberty Loan legisla-
ton:
1.-THE secretary Of the treasury. in
a conferef ceswith- Kitchin, chair
man OF the ways and means commit
tee, outlined his plan for the third
Liberty Loan. Actual expenditures of
the United States government and of
the allied governments having been
much less than had been indicated
by; the estimatess the a1nount OF the
next loan will be only $3,000,0OO,0 900,
the right being reserved to allot over
subscriptions.
sThe secretary will ask authority
from congress to issue bonds bearing
interest at the rate of AZ per cent
per annum, acceptable at par and
accrued interest in payment of United
States inheritance taxes, and having
the benefit of a sinking fund of 5 per
cent per annu1h during the period Of
the war and for year thereafter.
1T is the belief of the secretary
that the rate now proposed is suff-
.cient and that, by restricting unneces-
.sary capital issues and . by inducing
the people who subscribe for Liberty
bonds to save and keep them for in
vestment, and by purchases with the
sinking fund from those who find
themselves compelled to sell, future
increases in the interest rate may be
avoided.
1.-The converting privilege is elm
mated from the new bond ISSUE"

pie OF Ireland, both men and women

by the president of the United States

ton Tactics Of Companies
on April %.

CHICAGO, April 4.-The CONNER
cial Photographers union has set April
% next as the date when every
worker in this calling will openly de-
ware his right to join labor union.
These workers will challenge the
spy system maintained by the West
ern Union and Postal, and every or
ganized worker and trade union
should assist them by demanding that
the companies treat their employees
as free men and women
OF great aid to the telegraphers'
movement is public opinion. and cit
liens generally should be informed Of
the methods employed by these COM
panies to keep their workers in SUBJ
lection.
In Jacksonville, Fla, Western Union
has discharged 20 of it's employees
who are suspected Of being friendly
to unionism, and the telegraphers
point to this incident as one more
application Of the company's intimi-
dating policy.
Unionists are urged to make it
clear that there will be no strike on
April %, but there may be a lockout.
If lockout does occur, it will be
because the companies deny their
employees a right that is recognized
by the government and all real
Americans.

working conditions are maintained
through terrorism, and instant dis
