THIRD LIBERTY
 OPENS IL
There Will Be Campaign of Three
 or Four Weeks.


 Washington, Mar Ion April G.. the first anniversary of the United States entry into the war, the third Liberty Loan will open. There will be a campaign of three or four weeks.
 In announcing the date tonight, Secretary McAdoo said the amount of the loan, the interest rate and other features such as convertibility of bonds of previous issues. maturity and terms of payment, are yet to be de- termined, and that new legislation will be necessary before plans can be com pleted. s
 More Than $3,6oo, ,coo, GOO.
 The fact that the amount of the loan is dependent on further legisla- tion indicates that it will be for more than 8. 00,000 900 the remainder of authorized but unissued bonds. and the fact that certificates of indebted : ness now being sold in anticipation of the loan beai 1-2 per cent af- fords some indication of the interest rate
 How large the loan shall be depends largely, however, on the fact of the pending war finance bill carrying an appropriation of a half billion dollars, and action on the railroad bill, with its appropriation of similar amount
 Although MT. McAdoo made no specific announcement it is now taken for granted in official circles that there WI be but one more loan be- fore June 50. the end of the fiscal year.
 The statensat announcing the dats of the campaign was made at this time Secretary McAdoo explained, te give every community time to prepare for the big bond sale. and he strongly advocated popular demonstrations or the day of the opening of the loan and the second year of the war.
