LEGION PRAISES
6. v. j. HEAD

DR.. Cloyd H. Marvin, president
of George Washington University,
has been congratulated by the
American Legion on the attitude
of the university and its students
toward the so-called strike"
against war, scheduled for last
Friday.
The legion is continually striv.
ing for peace with honor, but
believed the students backing the
strike" had been misled, James
O'Conner Roberts, department
commander of the District, said in
a letter to President Marvin. The
letter, in part, said:
"The unfortunate thing about
activities such as the proposed
students strike is that many
of our young people in the
schools and colleges, who par
ticipate in such movements, in
nOcently lend themselves as
pawns in the hands Of sinister
agencies who are not interested
in preserving the peace of the
world or of this country, but
who, on the contrary, are anx-
iouS to foment disorder and
eventual civil war"

ALL WAR BONDS
WIPED OUT BY
TREASURY


Seventeen years after the
armistice all World War financ-
ing today was RELOCATING to the
"pages of history"
Secretary Morgenthau, in a ra-
do speech, issued call for the
remaining outstanding Az per
cent Fourth Liberty bonds for
redemption october Is.
According to the Secretary the
financial "log-jam" has been
broken and money released
through the great reduction in
interest rates will be permitted
to flow into the channels Of COM
merce and industry.
He said:
"There is no longer any rea-
son why capital should not
flow normally into the arteries
Of business"
REFUNDING DUE
About 1850 million dollars Of
the Az Fourth Liberties will be
retired on or before next Octo-
Der. It was regarded as probable
that holders of the Fourth Lib
erty bonds would be offered the
privilege Of exchanging them for
other securities of the govern
ment within the next few
months.
About 1880 millions in the First
Liberty loan has been called for
June Is. It was expected that a
refunding issue would be offered
for the redemption of these secur-
tiles shortly after April 81. First
Liberties not refunded into the
new issue will be paid off in cash
June IS.
Secretary Morgenthau pointed
out that while the bonds called
today bear Az per cent interest
the average rate of interest on out
standing Government securities is
only 2.86 per cent,
