The United States government has begun a determined fight against LlD- erty Bond swindlers to protect the people who periodically responded to the call for funds to support the war
 All persons who are sent literature or are approached by dealers per suading them to part with their bond holdings for what are considered spec ulative or doubtful securities have been asked by the government to send the names and addresses of the com panies to the Federal Trade Commis' sion, Washington, D. c.
 The Fedora. Trade Commission will call for reports in proper cases ana the Federal Trade Act provides that any company or person making a false report to the commission will be heavily fined and imprisoned. The commission points out that the small est holder can obtain the same price as the shark and that all the expenses of running the fraudulent business o the illicit dealers must be borne D! Me holder of the bonds.
 The government by a successfu campaign at this time hopes to con vince prospective buyers of the Vic tory Loan that it is ready to mak' livery effort to stand behind holders 0 government bonds.
