The rate of interest is four and three
quarters per cent The unexpected
small amount of the loan and the high
rate Of interest have brought great JOY
to the Liberty Loan workers Of the
Ninth Federal Reserve District who
will begin their campaign on Monday,
April twenty-frst. AS announced by
the Treasury department the Victory
Liberty Loan will take the form of
Gold notes maturing in four years.
These notes will be exempt from state
and local taxes except estate and in
heritance taxes and from normal fed
eral income taxes. The notes will be
convertible at the option of the holder
throughout their life into three and
three-quarters per cent four year notes
of like maturity and exempt from all
federal, state and local taxes, except
estate and Inheritance taxes The notes
Of both series will be dated and bear
interest from May Goth, 1919, and will
mature on May Goth, 1923.
The terms of this issue have been
based upon the desire to devise a Sc
,curity which will not only prove attrac-
tive to the people but the terms of
nh mo rCyn n
the notes and not affect adversely the
credit market for the existing govern
ment securities. Theo Void, Governor
of the Federal Reserve Bank, comment
ed as follows: "The terms Of the Vic
tory Liberty Loan are so extremely IA
yorable, the amount to be raised in this
district is so comparatively small, that
to my mind there is absolutely no doubt
but that the loan will be promptly over
subscribed in the ninth federal reserve
district
"A. R. Rogers, Chairman of the Cen
Yral Liberty Loan Committee, expresses
satisfaction over the terms of the loan
.'The Victory notes are the finest securl-
~ ever issued by the United States,
said Mr.. Rogers, people in this district
and all over the United States will take
them because they appreciate their
value as an investment and because
they believe in their government. The
Treasury departments announcement OF
terms should dispel the last trace OF
Dessimism and this has been the cause
of our only fear about the overWhelm'
ing success Of the loan. :
