Where Liberty bonds were not actually
sold to provide for payment of these

would have been put Into Liberty
bonds had the new Issue not appeared.
This has tremendously reduced the
buying power In the market. Applica-

on cash basis would seem to point to
an unsatistied demand that might by
this time have been brought to bear
on the government bond group. Part
of the large total was explained by
the padding" of subscriptions, espe-
cially by the large investor. A good
deal of the remainder Is waiting q

what will happen.

that two courses were open to the
