LOAN DETAILS
ARE GIVEN OUT
BY TREASURY
The First Bank of Cordova has re
ceived the following wire giving de
tails of the Victory loan drive, which
begins next Monday:
San Francisco, April 14, 1919.
First National Bank of Cordova:
The following constitute the balance
of the main particulars of the Victory
loan, just received from the secretary
of the treasury:
“The Victory Liberty loan which
will be offered for popular subscrip
tions on April 21 will take the form
of 4% per cent three and four-year
convertible gold notes of the United
States, exempt from state anad local
taxes, except estate and inheritance
taxes, and from normal federal income
taxes. The notes will be convertible
at the option of the holder throughout
their life into 3% per cent three-four
year convertible gold notes of the
United States,exempt from all federal,
state and local taxes except estate and
inheritance. In like manner the 3%
per cent notes will be convertible into
the 4% per cent notes.
“The amount of the issue will be
$4,500,000,000, which, with the deferred,
installments of income and profits
taxes payable in respect to last year’s
income and profits during the period
covered by the maturity dates of treas
ury certificates of indebtedness now
outstanding, will fully provide for the
retirement of such certificates. The
issue will be limited to $4,500,000,000,
except as it may be necessary to in
crease or decrease the amount to fa
cilitate the allotment. Over-subscrip
tions will be rejected, and allotments
made on a graduated scale similar in
its general plan to that adopted on
subscriptions, up to and including
IMA AAA
“The notes of both series will be
dated and bear interest from May 20,
1919, and thereafter, semi-annually, on
June 15 and December 15, and at ma
turity, all or any of the notes may be
redeemed for maturity, at the option
of the United States, on Jufie 15 or
December 15, 1923, at par and accrued
interest.
“In fixing the terms of the issue the
treasury has been guided largely by
the desire to devise a security which
will not only prove attractive to the
people of the country in the first in
stance, but the terms of which should
insure a good market for the notes
after the campaign is over, and iden
tical prices for the two series, and
should not affect injuriously the mar
ket for the existing bonds of the Lib
erty loans. This will be the last Lib
erty loan.
"Although, as the remaining war
bills are presented, further borrowing
must be done, I anticipate that the re
quirements of the government in ex
cess of the amount of taxes and other
income can, in view of the decreasing
scale of expenditure, be readily
financed by the issue of treasury cer
tificates from time to time, as here
tofore, which may be ultimately re
funded by the issue of notes or bonds
without the aid of another great popu
lar campaign such as has character
ized the Liberty loans.
“I am sute that the people of Amer
ica will subscribe to this Victory loan
in the same spirit of patriotism which
they have shown in the past, to the
end that the notes may be as widely
distributed as possible, and that our
banking institutions may be left free j
to supply the credit necessary^for the 1
purpose of industry and commerce
and the full employment of labor. Let
the world see that the patriots of
America, out of their boundless re
sources, and with the same enthusiasm
and devotion to country with which
they prosecuted the war to a victori
ous conclusion, are determined to fin
ish the job.
“With the particulars with which
you were previously advised, you can
now print and distribute your applica
tions, which should contain the fol
lowing notice:
“ ‘Notes of the 4% per cent series
will be delivered upon this application
unless otherwise indicated over the
signature of the subscriber below.'
“Then a new line follows immedi
ately, reading:
“ ‘Please deliver 3% per cent notes
upon this application.'
“Directly underneath this should be
a line for the signature of subscriber.
"Each bank in Alaska is required
to get its report of the total subscrip
tion received by it to the Federal Re
serve Bank here by wire not later
than May 17, or earlier if possible.
“Treasury department circular No.
138, fully describing the Victory loan,
will be printed here just as soon as
the text Is received by wire from
Washington, and the supply requested
by you will be promptly forwarded for
distribution by you to all committees,
banking institutions, bond houses and
other selling agencies in your city.
“We are confident that with the de
creased quotas and attractive terms of
this loan your community will oversub
scribe, as heretofore.
“LYNCH, Governor.”
