No Hitch Marks Opening OF
Drire-Wireless Oratory
From Middir

Washington. April 21.-(By A. P)
Not ripple of excitement was ap-
parent today at the Treasury on the
opening of the Victory Liberty Loan
selling campaign. The big nation wide
machine for the marketing of $4,000, :
OO0,0OO of notes as the last big war
loan had been so completely adjusted
and oiled in advance that it went into
operation. almost automatically.
The offices in the Treasury, which
for weeks past have been busy with
preparations for the loan campaign,
were quieter than usual, for the task
of putting the loan across had been
passed on to the local committees of
workers in thousands of communities.
These apparently were so busy today
gathering the first harvest Of subscrip-
tions that they had no time to report
their progress to national headquarters.
Washington had its opening celebra-
ton on the south steps Of the Treasury,
where arrangements had been made for
trial of a wireless telephone apparatus
by which an orator flying in an airplane
1000 feet above the city could deliver
a speech TO the crowd on the steps. Air
planes and dirigible balloons were sent
up. Admiral Sims was the principal
speaker on the program.
