Payments Are Provided
For, Last on Jan. 80

WASHINGTON, Sept. 33.-All terms
IF the fourth Liberty Loan, except the
size and the maturity, we're announced
to-day by the Treasury. The amount,
probably near $6,O00,OOO 600, was dc
cidcd Oh, but announcement was with
held.
The interest rate will be A per
cent, the same as that of tho third
loan. Bonds will be dated October %,
five days after the close of the sub
scription period and the first interest
payment p'ill be made next April Is,
and will be for the 173 days inter
vcning. Thereafter, semi-annual pay
mcnts will be made on October Is and

tcrest coupon will be worth S1.O1; on
800, 500, and higher multiples ac-
cordingly.

$1oo. 5000, $1,000, $4,000 and $4,000.
The $4,000 and 100000 bonds will be
registered only.
Since the latest maturity periods of
the first, second and third loans were
thirty, twenty-five and ten years, re-
spcctivcly, it was considered probable
that the maturity of tho fourth Loan
would be either fifteen or twenty years.
Ten per cent of the subscription will
be required as the initial payment on
the fourth Loan. Twenty per cent will
be due as instruments on November 2
December 10 and January 16, and 80
per cent on January 80

Wilson's Signature TO
Agriculture Appropriation
Means Liquorless Land

! WASHINGTON, Sept. 23-National
prohibition effective next July /. for
the period of the war, was approved
tonight by the House. which adopted,
III to 81, the Senate prohibition rider
to the S12,OOo,000 emergency agricult-
ural appropriation bill.
The measure now will be sent to con.
ference for adjustment Of differences
between the two houses on appropria-
tion items. ..~s..-s..3.
All other efforts to amend the legls-
lation were defeated. A proposal by
Representative Kahn (Republican), Of
California, TO extend the effective date
for prohibiting the sale of wine and
beer to December 81, 1919, was de-
tcated, 1l2 to 81, as was one by Kcprc-
sentative Beshlin (Democrat), of Penn
sylvania, to change the date for stop
ping the manufacturing Of beer and
WING from next May to December /,
1919.
House Reverses Decision
After voting in the Committee Of
the Whole to accept an amendpent
permitting the importation of wine un-
til next May /, the House later re.
121 to SO, retained the original Senate
provision that importation of wine
i must cease when the measure becomes
! effective upon its signature by the
! President. The amendment was ap-
proved by the House Agriculture Com
mitteo to meet an objection by the gov
ernments of France, Italy, Spain and
Portugal.
-Four other amendments, two Of which
sought to have the government pay for
the liquor unsold when prohibition tc-
comes effective, also were rejected.
Representative Gofdon, of Ohio, pro
posed that the Internal Revenue Bu-
reau be auth orized to make the pay
mcnt, but was ruled out of order as
was subsequent proposal by Repre-
sentative SABBATH, of Illinois, to provide
d fund Of $3.50, 900 for the same pur-
! pose.
Other Amendments Beaten
The other amendments voted down
were BY Representative lgoo, Of Mis-
souri,, who sought to limit prohibition
to the declaration of peace instead Of
the dcmoblization of the army, and by
Representative Cannon, Of Illinois, who
tried to have stricken out the provi-
i.-in tor ;,,bo
izing the President to establish "dry"
, zones about mines, munition plants and
other factories.
Discussion began under an agree

Pleads for Grape Growers

duce 90 per cent of the domestic wine,

Mr.. Kahn said sales of habit form
