FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN PROGRAM STARTS JUNE 25 Certificates Wfll Bear 4/j Per Cent. Interest, With Vary ing Periods Washington, June 17.—The govern ment's financial program for the next four months, was disclosed yesterday by Secretary McAdoo's announce ment that in preparation for the Fourth Liberty Loan to be floated probably in October, about $6,000,- 000,000 certificates of indebtedness will be issued. They will be offered in blocks of $750,000,000 each, every two weeks beginning June 25. Every national bank and trust company is asked to assist the gov ernment by subscribing five per cent, of its gross resources monthly. The certificates will bear 4 1-2 per cent, interest like those preceding the Third Liberty Loan, and will have varying periods, none exceeding four months. In addition an undetermined quantity—perhaps $2.000,000.000 of tax certificates will be issued dur ing the summer for use in paying taxes for a year from now. The announcement of this program indicates that the Fourth Liberty I.oan will be for at least $6,000,000,- 000, the exact amount depending on government expenditures in the next few months. The treasury already has estimated these roughly at about $12,000,000,000 between July 1 and next January 1. The sale of certificates u:.aer the plan in effect during the past year amounts virtually to borrowing in advance from banks on projected popular war loans on tax collections, and periodically refunding these short term obligations in long term Liberty Bonds. Depositary banks make 2 1-2 per cent, net, the dif ference between the 4 1-2 per cent, interest paid by the government and the 2 per cent, collected for de posits. The future financial program was announced at this time to enable bunks to prepare for the government demands. Crowder Urges Senate to Broaden Age Limit; 3,000,000 Men by Aug. 1 \Va.sliinjrton, June 17. Provost Marshal General Crowder ha.s urged upon the Senate military affairs com mittee the necessity for amending the draft law to broaden the age limit on the ground that at the pres ent rate of drafting men Class 1 would be exhausted early next year. General Crowder told the commit tee on Saturday that the American Army would number 3,000.000 on August 1 this year. Of these 2,000,- 000 will have been furnished by the draft and the others through enlist ments. He said that wastage, due to the larger part American force.* would play on the western front, all Wk probably would require heavy drafts in the first six months of 1919. He gave the committee figures of the number of men the War Department intended to call into service between August 1 and December 31. The ordnance program has been based on an Army of 3.000,000, Gen eral r'rowder said. Hence any in over that figure will require a corresponding adjustment of the artillery program, he said. In General Crowder's opinion, it will be necessary to broaden the age limit of the draft law unless the War Department wishes to take the conse quences incident to going into Class es 2, 3 and 4. This. General Crowd ed pointed out, would injure industry and agriculture, and would cause dis content through the drafting of mar ried men with families.

Germans Here Are Not Huns, Senator Sproul Says; Pest Began With Bismarck Pottsville, Pa., June 17.—"The hundreds of thousands of simple, in dustrious, peaceful Pennsylvania citizens who trace their ancestry to Germany, are not of Hun origin,'' declared Senator W. C. Sproul, Re publican gubernatorial nominee, in this place. "The Hun of to-day began his ex istence in Bismarck's time. I was in Budapest, Hungary, when this war broke out. and, returning home byway of Germany, I had every reason to observe that country had made preparations for war far be yond what anybody outside of Ger many ever dreamed of. I saw in struments of war so large and for midable that I never before thought such large machines could be moved except on ships. "My mother always told me I wouid never appreciate our flag until I lived through a great war, and I appreciated this when, with out money and in the midst of strangers, we pushed through a fog bank off the Hook or Holland and suddenly there burst before us the largest American flag I ever saw, streaming from the masthead of the Tennessee, a ship sent to Europe to relieve stranded Americans whose credit was temporarily gone. The flaif must be seen under such circum stances to appreciate just what it really stands (or." Senator Sproul related here how he was arrested in Germany because a policeman thought he looked like an Englishman. "I have no doubt that would have been an amusing sight to 'Charlie' Snyder to see me escorted down a street in company with a soldier and a bayonet," de clared the Senator, turning toward rhe Auditor General. Senator Sproul said soldiers in Germany showed a Hun offensive ness toward their own people. "I heard a soldier say at Frankfort to persons, who were peaceably sitting on park benches, 'Get out of there, you swine'." Bulgarian Cabinet Goes Down; Premier Presents Resignations to Ruler Sofia, Sunday June 16.—Via Am sterdam —Premier Hadoslavoff has tendered the of the cabi net and King Ferdinand has accepted it. The ministers were requested by the king to retain their portfolios until a new cabinet is formed.

Many Bulgarians have felt, it has been reported, that the Dobrudja should have been ceded dutright to Bulgaria.

FOUR ADDITIONAL NURSES ENLIST Harrisburg District Now Has Thirty-Four Hospital Grad uates For War Service Four more graduate nurses have enlisted for Red Cross nursing serv ice, Mrs. James I. Chamberlain, chairman of the local campaign cam mittee. announced this morning, as a result of the intensive campaign for recruiting graduate nurses for service in the Army and Navy. With the new recruits, the Harrisburg dis trict's total is thirty-four nurses, which officials say is an unusually large contribution from any one dis trict. The four enlisted nurses are: Miss Cecilia Erb, 17 North Fifth street. Miss Constance Egan, Lock Haven. Miss X. Whitman, Lock Haven. Miss Frances Lloyd. Northumber land. An official statement from the National Headquarters of the Red Cross says that reports from all sec tions of the country tell of marked interest in the drive for 20,000 nurses by January 1 for service with the Army and Navy Nursing Corps. "The intensive start of the campaign gives promise that the needs of the nursing situation will be fully met. This means that the military re quirements not only will be fuifilled but that the needs regarding the nurses in civil life will be well looked after. "The first and foremost considera tion, of course," the statement con tinues, "is the recruiting of an army of trained nurses to care for soldiers and sailors. Naturally this will cue deeply into the ranks of professional nurses who have been ministering to the wants of the civilian population* Therefore the Red Cross, aside from its activity in supplying the military requirements, is giving attention to the enrollment of student nurses, from whose ranks vacancies in all branches of nursing service subse quently may be filled. "In this connection it is gratifying to note the very keen interest that has been aroused in the new Army School of Nursing, of which Mrs. Annie W. Goodrich is the dean. The great opportunities which this school affords to prepare women for pa triotic service by training under mil itary auspices for whatever kind of ntir.ung duty they may be called upon to pfcrform, evidently will be taken advantage of to the full. "The drive for military nurses is being carried on with parades and other demonstrations in different parts of the country. Sample reports taken at random show that great in terest has been manifested in the drive throughout the entire nation. "The situation may be summed up jin the statement that the woman i hood of America can be depended j upon as fully as the manhood of America to meet every call of the country."

A., on the religious aspect of America s part in the war and the relation of the individual to God in the present su preme crisis in the world's affairs.

He likened the position of the people of the Cnited States to-day to that of the children of Israel under Moses and Joshua. Dr. Mudge devoted himself largely to the efficacy of prayer and to the necessity of man bringing himself under divine guidance and in harmony with divine purpose. Preston Crowell presided and the speakers were introduced by John S. Musser and J. William Bowman, di rectors.
