Treasury VIII Not Issue Any for
- Victory Loan After April q.

announcement was made yesterday by
the Federal Reserve Bank Of New York
that there will be no issue of Treasury
certificates in anticipation OF the Victory
Loan after April 3. The news was re-
ceived from the Secretary of the Treas
ury. Regularly and biweekly since De-
eember B. 1918. and UP to March 10, tho
Treasury has offered eight issues of
United States certificates Of indebted
ness, known az Series 8. In anticipation
OF the Victory Loan. g..
The minimum total for the country
thus offered for subscription amounts to
more than, -. 90. 0o0. 200. and the amount
subscribed equals nearly $4,000, 00o, 900.
the quota for this district amounting to
sl.b7b.e0o. 900. The eight Issues ranged
In amount from $50, 100000 to $3.50, 0oo.-
600, depending In every case on imme-
diate needs of the Government at the
time Of issue. Because OF receipts by
the Government from the payment of
Income and proflts tax. as of March is,
and because OF the lessening strain on
the Treasury compared with the stress
during the period after hostilities ceased
the Secretary OF tho Treasury has de-
cided to postpone beyond April 3 the
Offering Of certificates Of Indebtedness
which normally would have been an
nounced in pursuance of the original
financial programme.
