citizens, subscribed for more than
3,O00,000,000 of the bonds. Only
$4,000, 100000 was allotted.
The outstanding features of the
First Liberty Loan were the prompt
ness with which it was arranged and
conducted, the patriotism of the news
papers, banks, corporations, ,organiza-
tons, and people generally in working
for its success, and the heavy over
subscription of more than 80 per cent.
Another notable feature was that
there was no interruption to the bust
ness Of the country occasioned by the
unprecedented demand upon its money
resources.
The Second Liberty Loan compaign
opened on October 1, 1917, and closed
on October %. The bonds of this
issue bear 4 per cent interest and run
1925 years. They carry the CONVEX
sion privilege. It was announced that
so per cent of the oversubscription
would be taken. nine million subscri-
bers subscribed for $4,617, So, 900 of
the bonds, an oversubscription Of "a
per cent. Only $S,sOS, 766, 15O Of the

same enthusiastic support of the pub
lie as its predecessor. The labor and
fraternal organizations were especial
ly active in this campaign, and the wo-
men of the country did efficient or
ganized work which greatly contribu-
ted to the success of the loan. The men
in the army and navy worked for and
subscribed largely to the loan.
The Third Liberty Loan campaign
opened on April 6, 1918, one year ex-
actly from our entrance into the war,
and closed on May 4. The bonds Of
this issue bear As per cent interest
and run for ten years, are not subject
to redemption prior to maturity, and
carry no conversion privilege. The
loan was announced for $4,000, 900, 600,
but the right was reserved to accepr
all additional subscriptions. Seven
teen million subscribers subscribed for
$,17O,019,650 of the bonds, all of
which was allotted.
A great feature of this loan was its
very wide distribution among the
people and throughout the Union ana
the fact that the country districts
promptly and heavily subscribed to the
The states-graphic. (Brownsville, Tenn.) 1???-1984, 1918-08-16

lean, in a great measure making up
their quota earlier than the cities.
Secretary McAdoo pronounced this
loan the soundest of national financing.
A little over a year ago there was
some 100000 United States bondhold-
crs; there are now somewhere between
100000 and 25,O00,OO0. Awakened
patriotism has made the American
people a saving people, bondbuying
people. The effect of the Liberty
Loans on the national character, on
our national life, on the individual cit
izen and our home life is immeasur-
able-of incalculable benefit. Not less
incalculable is their effect on the des-
tiny of the world as our ships plow the
seas and our men and material in
Europe beat back the Hun.
The Fourth Liberty Loan campaign
will begin Saturday, September %,
and close October 49,. No American
doubts its success; no good American
will fail to contribute to its success.
The blood of our men fallen in Europe
calls to us; our answer must be and
will be worthy Of them and our coun-
try.

FIRST U. S. FIELD
ARMY OVERSEAS
Consists of Five Corps With Gen. Per.
shing in Direct Command; Thirty
Thousand Each; Others to be organ
lied.

With the American Army in France
Aug. 12.-The United States finally
has her own army in the field. The
troops are operating under strictly
American command.
This most important development
was announced today.
Gen. Pershing, in addition to his du-
ties as American commonder-in-chief,
has taken over the direct command of
the first field army organized in
France.
1t consists of five arm corps and
while it was not stated where the force
will operate, it is presumably in the
Marine sector.
All of the divisions comprising the
field army have had preliminary train
ing and active service at the front, a
number participating in the most re-
cent battles.
The army corps are commanded
by Maj.-Gens. Liggett, Bullard, Bund-
ay, Reed and Wright.
Each corps contains several divisions
of approximately 10000 men with
such auxiliaries as tanks, airmen and
heavy artillery.
1t was not stated whether Gen. Per-
shing intends to remain long as field
commander or if he will turn over the
command to junior general officer.
Although not announced at head
quarters, it is understood that other
armies will be organized shortly.

THE LIBERTY LOANS

The United States entered the war
or April 6, 1917. Eighteen days later
by a practically unanimous vote con-
gress passed the Liberty Loan Bond
bill.
On May 2 the First Liberty Loan
was announced, on May ID the details
were made public, and on the 18th
the campaign began and closed one
month later. The bond issue was for
$4,000 100000, the bonds bearing 35
per cent interest and running for
1870 years. The bonds carried the
conversion privilege, emitting the
holder, Of he chose, to convert them
into bonds of a later issue bearing A
