FIFTH LOAN BOON
FOR PRIVATE INVESTOR

Washington. April 15.-Advantages
fro private investment of the short
term notes to be issued in the Victory
Liberty Loan are believed by the Fed
eral Reserve Board to be greater than
those of any preceding Liberty Loan
issue. In it's forthcoming bulletin for
April. an abstract of which was made
public today, the board expresses the
opinion that the short term notes
will have a greater market stability
because of their short maturity and
also because they will not be encum-
bered by uncertainty as to redemp-
ton after specified period, as il
the case with long term notes.
