Committees Being Formed for
Campaign to Open Not Later
Than October 1
r,
WASHINGTON", Sept. 1.
Liberty Loan committees, some of them
new, soma of them tho old groups, began
forming today to Inaugurate the second
Liberty Loan campaign of 1917 calling for
probably $3,000,000,000 at a date not later
than October 1,
The actual time for starting this second
tremendous sale of bonds wherewith to
flnanco the war depends upon congressional
action, but Secretary McAdoo believes that
body will act directly upon the big bond
and certificate bill.
Meantime, he Is debating the question of
buying space to advertise the loan. He
believes advertising Is n sound proposition,
but points out that under publishers' plans,
the Government would have to take space
In some papers which a private commercial
venture would probably not adopt. A state
ment he Issued praised tho press for ItH
loyal co-operation in printing news stories
of tho first bond Issue and denied he had
asked free advertising In the first cam
paign. ' I
