NJ c A 90 Issues
Warning toLiberty
B o n d h o | d ers

WASHINGTON. Jan. 21.-Lb-
erty bonds investors were warned
by Sec'y McAdoo tonight to beware
of irresponsible persons offering
other securities in exchange. In a
statement appealing to bondhold-
ers 10 hold fast 10 the best invest
ment in the world" Mr. McAdoo
said:
cit has been brought to my at
tention that a large number of pa
triotic citizens who subscribed TO
Liberty loan bonds Of both the first
and second issue are being ap-
preached from time 10 time by
agents who have with too frequent
success, induced them to sell their
Liberty loan bonds and take in eX-
change securities which in a num-
Der Of cases have been Of very ques-
tionable value.
Through the intensive work
carried on during the two Liberty
loan campaigns, a patriodc army
Of over 100000 bond buyers in
this country has been created. It
is OF the utmost Importance that
the investments Of this army of pa
triots should be safeguarded in ev-
cry possible way, and that their ac-
ton in lending their money TO their
government should not be taken ad-
vantage of my irresponsible people
seeking solely profit for them
selves.
'I therefore warn investors in
Liberty loan bonds against exchange
of these evidences Of their patriot
ism for any securities or so-calIed
securities. While some OF the Sc
curities, or so-called securities, of
fered in exchange for government
bonds are of sound value, there il
no doubt that a large percentage of
them are worthless.
cit is my earnest hope that every
purchaser of a Liberty bond will
realize that the only genuine help
he gives his government is y keep
ing his bond as an investment as
long as il is possible for him to do
so. Where, because OF misfortune
or imperative necessity the holder
Of a Liberty bond is forced to sell,
there can. Of course, be no objec-
ton"
