ToBe Only One More
Big War Loan Drive
The Amount VIII Not Exceed
$4,000, 900, ,OOO-Probably
the Last Three Weeks in
August-More Bonds Are
to Be Marketed.

Washington, Jan. 1s.-Only one
more big war loan drive is planned by
the treasury department, Secretary
Glass said today. This will be the
Victory Liberty loan, to be floated
probably the last three weeks in April.
The amount will not be more than S.
000,000,O00 and may be $4,000 100000.
Il expect the Victory liberty loan to
be the last intensive campaign for the
sale of government bonds" said Mr..
Glass. Reports that there would be
two more bond issues this year aggre-
eating 12,000,000,000 are entirely with
but also as regards the number of
campaigns"
More bonds probably will be issued
by the government even after the next
campaign, but it is planned to market
these quietly through banks and other
financial institutions.
One result of Secretary Glass an
nouncement that the next intensive
loan campaign would be the last is
that Liberty loan organizations
throughout the country will make this
a big selling point in the campaign.
The misapprehension regarding the
number and amount of remaining
loans may arise, treasury officials eX-
planned today, over the fact that the
treasury had planned to float two loan
issues aggregating about $4,000, 900, OOC
this fiscal year. The fiscal year be-
gan last July l. however, and ends neXt
June 80, and the fourth Liberty loar
of nearly $1,000, ,OO0,0 900 already has
been Dated in that period.
Most treasury officials believe thai
the terms of the fifth, or Victory loan
will have to be made more attractive
| than those of the past, either by rails.

Mr.. and Mrs Wilson have received
so many gifts in the course of their
stay in Paris and visit to England and
Italy that a large quantity of them
probably will have to be taken to
Washington en- an army transport.
Gifts of all kinds ana OF al values
began pouring in the day President
Wilson arrived and they still are com
ing in in an ever-ending stream. They
come from all classes of people.
Many of the presidents are price
less but the president values most those
having a sentimental appeal These
nave come principally from children,
not only in France but {, ON all over
Europe and also from fareiiies in en-
tente countries which have suffered
by the war.
President Wilson has directed that
everyone should be formally acltnowl-
edged. Sometimes in response to a
particularly touching message accom-
panyirg the gifts, he writes Il personal
acknowledgement but the pressure on
his time is SO great that Is cannot do
so for all. Nevertheless, every gift
no matter how insignificant is care
fullp preserved. Many of them I'M
doubtedly will find places in the
White House because the president
does not feel they were given to him
wholly personally.
