Allied Conference Invites Them to
Send Delegates to Meeting
. at Paris.
DATE IS MARCH 20
Gathering viii Be Unofficial and Pro
sent an Opportunity for Neutrals
to Give Their Opinions on
League.

Paris, March 14.-With the object
of giving neutrals an opportunity to
express their views on the league OF
nations, an invitation has been sent
to all the neutral nations in Europe,
Asia and South America asking them
to attend private and unofficial con-
ference here Thursday, March 20.
The invitation was sent by the con-
ference authorities to the ministers of
the neutral powers in Paris and they
have forwarded it to their govern
ments.
Switzerland has already replied ia
vorably to the suggestion. No South
American republics have yet answered.
A strong sentiment is developing In
high quarters of the conference toward
making Geneva the official seat OF the
league Of nations. Several of the
heads OF delegations who have been
consulted have given their approval.
Turk Boundaries Held Out.
The council of the five great nations
has decided the question of the Turk
ish boundaries shall not be passed up
on by the boundaries commission but
shall be acted upon by the supreme
council.
The boundary between Albania and
Jugo-Slovakia also has been reserved
for action by the Supreme Council and
will be considered together with the
entire Adriatic question and the de.
and Jugo-Slovakia. The West German
boundary also has been reserved for
action by the Supreme council.
Not to Cause Delay.
The decision to withhold the Turk
ish, =, West German and Adriatic
boundaries differences from the bound
aries commission will not result in de-
lay, as the council probably will dis
pose of them as soon as the boundaries
commissions report is completed and
the entire territorial question will be
passed on at once, as much confusion
would result from attempts to do
piece.meal work.
Countries having several boundaries
under question would endeavor to
make up on one frontier what is denied
them on another. All boundaries will
be passed upon and become part of
the peace treaty. At least they will
be generally outlined, but it may be
necessary to leave minor details to the
technical commission which will make
surveys and investigations.
The Supreme council discussed the
aerial terms to be imposed on Ger
many in the peace preliminaries, &C.
cQrding to official announcement. The
articles drafted by the military ex-
perts were examined and adopted.

Secretary of the Treasury Glass
Announces Drive Will Run
Until May 10.
MATURE IN FIVE YEARS
Short Term Notes Will Be Issued and
Interest Rate and Amounts Ex-
empt From Taxation Are Not
Yet Determined.

Washington, March 14.-The cam
paign for the Victory Liberty Loan
will open Monday, April Fl, and close
Saturday, May 10, three weeks later.
Secretary Glass announced the dates
together with the fact that short term
notes maturing in not over five years
would be issued instead Of longer term
bonds. The amount of notes to be
offered was not disclosed, but it has
been generally understood that the
loan would be for minimum of S. ,O0O,-
100000 with the Treasury reserving
the right to accept all over-subscrip-
lions.
Mr.. Glass said that interest lkA on
the notes and the amounts to be ex'
empted from taxation would not be de-
termined until a week or two before
the campaign, as they would DO based
upon financial conditions at that time.
1t was intimated, however, that the
notes might bear interest in excess OF
~ per cent, the interest rate on the
third and fourth loans.
Short Term Notes Planned.
after studying conditions in all
parts of the country" said Mr.. Glass,
II have determined the, interests OF
the United States will best be served
at this time by the issuance of short
term notes rather than Of longer term
bonds which would have to bear the
limited rate of interest of Az per cent.
THE Victory Liberty loan will
therefore take the form of notes of
the United States maturing in not over
five years from the date Of issue.
These notes will be, as were the Lib
erty Loan Bonds, the direct promise
to pay of the United States, will be is
sued both in registered and coupon
form, and the coupon notes will be in
final form and will have attached the
interest coupons governing the entire
life of the notes. l am hopeful that
the notes in final engraved form will
be ready for delivery by the opening
Of the campaign on April 81.
II am led to adopt the plan Of issu.
ing short-term notes rather than long.
term bonds largely because of the fact
that I believe that short-term issue
will maintain a price at about par
after the campaign is concluded far
more readily than would a longer term
issue.
