WIFE,s CLEVER RUsE.
BY Means of. it She Turned Husband
Into a Stay at-Home

He had been married about a year
and had taken to spending his evenings
downtown with the boys. One night
his conscience worried him and he
thought he would phone his wife and
get her to come down and meet him and
have dinner with him. So he called
her up.
Hello, kid he began. ssSay, slip
on some old clothes and run down and
meet me on the quiet. Well have a
good dinner and then Wen get ma

Treasury Expects to Need
Sixteen Billions from
Bonds Within Year
TWO OF CAMPAIGNS
MAY BE COMBINED
Money Needs Between Loan Periods
Will Be Financed by the Sale of Short
Term Certificates of Indebtedness as

in the Past.
WASHINGTON, Aug 19-Tentative
plans of the treasury provide for three big
Liberty loan campaigns within the next
year, each to raise $5,O00,0 100000 or more,
it has been learned The first will be from
Sept. 2S to Oct. 49,, as has been an
nounced, the following is planned for Jan
uary or February and the third in May
or June
This program will be necessary, it is
explained to provide the $4,000, 100000
which officials estimate will be required
to finance war operations during the
year, in addition to the SS,000,000,000
which may be provided by the new rev.
enue bill now being drafted.
Ii government expenses and loans to
allies fall much below the s24, 000,0 100000
estimate, the government is expected to
try to combine two loans into one big
campaign for the largest credit ever
sought by any nation. Such a campaign
would be set for some time in the late
winter.
Money needs between loan periods will

In addition, the treasury looks for a
steady inflow of money from tax certif-
Gates which banks and corporations prob
ably will buy in billion-dollar quantities
as means of virtually paying their tax
| es in advance.
Every effort will be made by the treas
ury to make the number of loans as
| few and the time of financial rest be-
tween the campaigns as long as possible.
| Officials would much rather have only
one more big solicitation, in addition to
the fourth campaign to start late next
month, than two before the end of the
| fiscal year next June 10.

loans is the Christmas holidays, and the

Of curtailed industrial activity on account
of bad weather. Another bad time for
loans is the spring planting season when

less time than usual to devote TO cam
paigning The third period to be avoided

to be paid.
No plans for future Liberty loan:
can be formulated definitely many weeks
in advance owing to the uncertainty Of
the volume of government expenditures
Consequently, the program now in the
minds of treasury officials is highly tenta

expenditures is the fact that with August
