NOTES MAY TAKE
PLACE OF BONDS
Short Term Issue Is Urged; Cam
paign Opens in
April.
REACH TENTATIVE DECISION
House Committee Would Put $1,000.
100000 Limit, on Which Treasury
Now Plans to Issue Only
About $4,000, 100000.

Washington, Feb. 20.-Short-ter1
notes, maturing in from one to five
years, would be offered in the forth
coming Victory Liberty loan campaign,
instead of long-term notes, under
tentative agreement reached by the
house ways and means committee to
fix the terms of the loan by legislation
rather than to give Secretary Glass
wide discretionary powers to deter
mine them, as he Lad asked.
At the same time Secretary Glass in
a statement explained that the inten-
sive popular campaign would be con-
Quoted as planned, regardless of the
terms arranged by congress, and that
1t would start not later than April Il.
Fear Effect on Market.
The secretary had asked congress to
issue either bonds or notes, as market
conditions at the time might warrant,
but members Of the committee con-
cluded that a new loan issue would
necessarily carry with 1t such high
rate of interest that financial markets
might be adversely affected for some
time.
Under the tentative agreement OF
the committee Secretary Glass would
be given discretion Of issuing any one
or several of four kinds of notes, to be
prescribed by the legislation. The
quantity of these nonnegotiable securi-
ties would be limited to probably ST.
900 100000, of which the treasury now
plans to issue only about $4,000, OOO,-
| 600.
The principal features Of each OF the
four kinds Of notes proposed would be
| as follows ~ = y g
7, One class would be at low rate Of
! interest, possibly per cent, and ex-
empt from all federal taxation; one
would be at comparatively high rate,
possibly per cent and subject to all
federal taxes; a third would bear a
moderate rate of interest-4A per
| cent was suggested-and be exempt
from normal income tax levies; the
fourth would be exempt from taxation
up to certain amount.
| These terms have not yet been de-
| fined, but treasury officials said the
proposed alternatives would satisfy
the treasury department
In denomination the notes probably
would correspond with the past Lib
erty loans, ranging from $50 up.
| Not to Increase Bond Total.
The ways and means committee also
decided tentatively not to increase the
authorization for issuance Of bonds
from about $5,O0O,0 100000 to $4,000
| 100000. This means that the treas
ury still would have power to issue ur
to five billions in Liberty bonds al
the Az per cent rate of the last two
J loans, and with the same terms. 1t Is
possible that some of the notes to be
issued would be convertible in the next
three or four years into Liberty bonds
of longer maturity.
The draft Of the proposed Legislation
| for the short term notes was ordered
by the committee, and its experts be
gan Immediately to consider the plans
| for the new measure.

THE JEANERETTE RALLY.

Last Sunday the Woodman of the
World Fair at Jeanerette proved to be
a veritable political rally Of vintage
similar TO that of anti-lottery cam
paign in the early nineties
All of the announced candidates for
Governor made addresses and the i'm
preston made by these addresses was
that Col. Stubs would prove to be the
candidate supported by the New Or
leans machine and MIR. Breazeale prob
ably that of the reform forces. The
most notable and outstanding feature
of the meeting was the address of Mr.,
Breazeale. He was eloquent, mag
netic and forceful and his arraignment
of Martin Behrman and the New Or
leans ring evoked great and merited
applause. The amusing incident of
the meeting was the inimitable way in
which Mr.. Breazeale ridiculed the
Lietenant Governors eulogy of Mar
tin Behrman, declaring him to be one
of the greatest men produced by Louis
lana in the South and his defense of
the New Orleans ring. In this con-
nection, he kept the large crowd pres
snt in an uproar of laughter.
And to US it does seem as the height
of absurdity, If not a real affront to
the citizenship of Louisiana for a can
didate for Governor to indulge in the
extravagant praises of the leader of
the New Orleans bosses, whose politi-
cal methods and political standards, if
tolerated sny longer will destroy the
Democratic party Of Louisiana. It is
most probable, however; that Mr..
Breazeale's reply to that Behrman
eulogy will cause Mr.. Mouton to he
less ardent hereafter, in his express
ions of admiration for the head of the
New Orleans ring.
Mr.. Breazeale won many ardent sup
porters in this Parish Oh his visit here,
and there is no doubt he is unquestion-
ably equipped in experience, education,
personality and character to lead a
crusade against the system of political
serfdom fostered upon Louisiana by
the New Orleans ring.
It was by mighty effort that the
Louisiana lottery. supported and de-
tended by this same ring was ov. r
thrown and it requires similar efforts
to rid Louisiana of the domination CT
this ring.
The management Of the meeting VIZ |
admirable and DR.. Paul N. Cyr is to
congratulated on the graceful manr er
in which he presided and for his fair
ness and consideration towards all the
speakers.
Likewise the w. o. w. Camp of |
Jeanerette is to be congratulated in
affording the occasion for the-pecrle
Of this section Of the State to hear the
announced candidates for Governor de-
clare their effective attitude.

Tribute

1t is almost impossible to con-

than the testimonial that appears
elsewhere in this issue, in the form
OF a petition to DR.. Dana Terry,
from the citizens of Natchitoches,
asking him to reconsider his res
signation rs chairman Of the Home
service Department of the Red
Cross.
During the past few years that
he has lived here, he has proven
himself to be a public spirited citi-
zel, taking an active part in all
matters that tended to the uplift
and betterment ofthe community; !;
broad in his views. with q sympa-
thetic understanding of men and
matters 50 that he has rendered
invaluable services, particularly
as the head of the Home Service.
So thorough and efficient has his
work been that the head officials
state that Natchitoches leads in

accomplishments and it would be
