to provide funds for railroads and to
meet any other demands on the cor

templated is 4 "a per cent.

possibly year and a half, according
to tentative plans. They would be
sold privately to banks and big busi-
ness interests to minimize interfer-
ence with the popular Victory Liberty

taxes and interest on $4,000 owned by
any single interest would be entirely
tax exempt. The corporation has au-
thority to sell its bonds below par.
