cent OF the fourth Liberty loan sub.
scriptions will be required on spplica-
tion, instead OF 5 percent, as for the
past loans, the treasury announced to-
day. Twenty percent will be due No.
yember Il: 20 percent December lo; q
percent January 10 and ~ percent Jan
uary 70.
This is the first time more than three
instalments have been arranged in add
ton to the payment on application for
any Liberty loan Initial paymen, wa,
increased as I means OF discouragine
the practice Of some persons in the past
subscriptions.
The setting OF the last instalment oi
70 percent as late as January 20 wa,
interpreted as assurance that the fifth
Liberty loan would not be floated before
late in February or possibly March.
The amount OF the fourth loan and
the redemption terms probably will be
announced tonight by the treasury.
The initial payment, although due al
the time Of pledging. need not be paid
until October l9. the end Of the sub
seription period.
The instalment dates will not inter
fere with the practice by which many
subscribers have bought bonds through
banks or other agencies and paid II
percent a month for approximately ter
months.
