Stamps, and expectations are, accord
ing to figures announced at the head
quarters of the War Loan Organiza-

that particularly in this section of

prosperity are production and thrift.
Industrial records show that within
the last few years the first factor has
reached phenomenal figures, while
the thrift idea, induced by the war,
has taken a firm hold upon the peo-
pie of the nation.
Despite the problems of readjust-

'''Y" Entertainers
NEEDED IN FRANCE

While certain branches Of the work
the National War Work Council OF
the Y. M. C. A. has been doing for some
time are being curtailed, one type o1
service is being called upon for more
cooperation than ever before, AL
though for some time there hav&been
approximately 400 to- 500 entertainers
in France, many difficulties have sur
rounded this type Of service and the
thousands of shows which have been
given in France have only been put
over in spite of almost superhuman
difficulties. Now, however, with the
period of rehabilitation forcing upon
the Army new problems has a real
spirit Of cooperation been shown by
the Army authorities. Therefore, Cen
eral Pershing has detailed Colonel
Kelly, from his own STAFF, to act as
entertainment officer for the A. E. F.
which position places him as the liai.
son officer between the Army and the
"Y" Entertainment Bureau in Paris.
Theatres and large buildings are be-
ing taken over, mechanics supplied by
the Army are putting them into opera
tion and the t'Y" is producing shows,
given by soldier talent alone, and also
dramatic and vaudeville performances
and miscellaneous musical programs,
the personnel Of all of which mast be
recruited from this country.
Owing to the large number of men
in the Army with entertainment abil-
ity, no effort is being made to send
men from this side. Women, however,
are wanted for these positions in large
numbers. 125 must be sent out from
this country every month, which will
require the cooperation Of every re-
cruiting agency throughout the coun-
try. All entertainers are supplied with
uniforms, Life, Accident and Health
Insurance, transportation, and allow
$4,000 per month fer living expenses
in France.
The women should be preferably be.
tween the ages of % and 80, neat and
attractive and possessed Of a pro-
nounced ability in their particular line,
The field for entertainment now
reaches from the coast towns in

erything possible to aid individuals
associations, county agents, and dis
trict agents in making this notable
year in hog raising.
The projects" as outlined and the
objects aimed at are as follows:

on more definite constructive basis.
2. Pastures and forage crop: tc
work for most economical production

3. Curing meat for home use: to
encourage production and eliminate
waste by improved methods of cur.
ing and packing for home and local
supply.
4. Hog breeders associations: to
concentrate on particular breeds in
given communities.
5. Preparation for sale and ex-
hibition; to increase interest in bet
ter selling of hogs.
6. Cooperative marketing of
swine; to establish means of advan-
tageous selling Of hogs.

improve native stock and to produce

country is not suffering from a scare
ity of money. Last December the
per capita circulation in the United
States reached s56.23, smashing all
former records. Within the year the
stock of money in the United States,
the records reveal, increased 1884,

greatest investing strength ever en-
joyed. AS evidence of the thrift ha-
bit the national banks haye reported
an increase in deposits for 1918 or
more than $37O,0O0,OOO over the
highest figure previously attained.
War Savings Stamps mature at
full face value in five years. They
may be converted into cash, how
ever, at the will lof the holder, and
81 ce they pay per cent. interest,
Compounded quarterly, they make an
investment of rare value, so much so,
in fact, that the government limits
the amount which one purchaser
can hold to $1,000. The stamps are
to help pay for the war. The armis-
tice ended hostilities but did not
settle the bills. The Treasury De-
partment has appealed, and is ap-
pealing-to the people to show their
continued loyalty by buying War
Savings Stamps and by holding them.
The Treasury Department, when
stamps are sold, expects the use of
the money for five years and has is
sued a special request to the people
of the nation not to redeem their
stamps until maturity except in cas-
es of the most urgent necessity.

NO FIFTH LIBERTY LOAN
FOR UNITED STATES
sbort-Term Notes Will Be Issued in
Place of Bonds, and Upon These
Congress Will Set the Rate of
Interest.

Washington, Feb. 19.-There Will
be no Fifth Liberty Loan-or Vic
tory Loan, as it was to have been
termed-under an agreement tenta-
lively reached Tuesday afternoon by
the House ways and means commit
tee, in conference with Secretary OF
the Treasury Glass. Instead, a series
of short-term notes will be issued,
and upon these Congress will set the
rate of interest.
Under the existing Liberty Loan
legislation the Secretary OF the
Treasury could authorize a $5,OOO,-
100000 loan, but the interest rate
would have to be the same as that
carried by the fourth loan, it was
stated. The rate "A IA per cent?
under the conditions that would pre-
vail at the time that the loan was to
have been hoated would be insuffici
ent, in the opinion of members Of
the committee and representatives Of
the Treasury Department.
1t was stated this afternoon tina
if there is to be any popular bono
issue, it will have to be provided TO
by the next Congress, but even tha
was thought unlikely. 1t was de
cided that it would be "suicidal" TO
Congress to fix rate of interest o.

est was placed so high as to set a

The short-term notes will be is
sued to the total Of about s7,000,-
100000 and will be divided into four
classes, as follows:
/. Those exempt from all but
State taxation, which will pay the
lowest rate of interest.
2. Those exempt from oil but
State taxation, which will pay a
slightly higher rate.
8. Those exempt from the income
normal tax, but not from the surtax,
which will pay a slightly higher rate
and
4. Those subject to all taxes
which will pay the highest rate of all
The notes will be available to the
public as well as to the financial in
stitutions of the country, but wheth
er a campaign will be waged for the
purpose of stimulating public sub
scriptions has not yeet been decided
Although the tentative agreemen
reached today provided that the in
terest rates were to be set by Con
gress, it was indicated that this fea
ture might be abandoned, and tina
