C., May 9.-Score tary Mellon has called for payment Ion November 15, 1927, all outstanding second liberty loan bonds. Interest on these bonds will cease on November 15, 1927. Approximately $ 1,700,000,0(K! of these lx>ndt> are now outstanding. While the bonds will l>e paid on November 15, 1927, it is quite probable that during the next six months the treasury will extend to the holders of the Second Liberty lx?an bonds an opportunity to exchange them for other government securities. No announcement has as yet been made aa to the type of security to be offered in exchange, or the date on which the exchange offer may be expected. The treasury explains that the terms of the bonds require that a notice be given to the public six months in advapce of the redemption date. The secretary's announcement, therefore, does not mean that the bonds will be paid at the presgut time, but merely places the holders on notice that their bonds will be redeemed on November 15, and will cease to bear interest on that date. If holders of second liberties desire to have their bonds redeemed, they should present them for payI ment on November 15, 1927, but if they desire other government obligations in place of their Seconds, they should watch for further announcement and notify their bank to keep them informed of any exchange offering that may later be made by the treasury. In 1917 and 1918, it will be recalled,' when the government was selling bonds of the several liberty loans, a nation-wide campaign was conducted, every available facility being used to reach the public and sell the bonds. The situation is now practically reversed, and the government is pre- j paring to redeem or exchange some of these bonds. While no such elaborate canvass is contemplated for the redemption notice as was undertaken in U? 17, the treasury nevertheless ia making a special effort to iiiform the holders of second liberty loan bonds thai their bonds will cease to bear in Ureal on .November 16. Hanks and trust c ompanies throughout the coun- j try will be asked to co-operate with the government in spreading the news of this call for redemption, and in advising the holders of bonds that the treasury will probably offer new securities in exchange. For the first time the radio will be used by the government us a means of reaching millions of bondholders. An announcement will shdrtly be broadcast from the larger radio stations of the country. The importance of acquainting bondholders with the fact that their bonds have been called for payment is emphasized by the treasury's records of previous call* for redemption or exchange. These records show that./there are still outstanding at the present time, in the hands of the public, about 130,000,000 in government Securities upon which interest has ceased. Included in this amount are $3,600,000 In victory notes which ceased to bear interest in 1922 and 1023. There are also outstanding $14,500,000 in temporary bonds of the J several liberty loans, to which were attached only a limited number of interest coupons. The last coupons matured some seven years ago. The holders of these temporary bonds have neglected to exchange them for permanent bonds having the full number of interest coupons attached, and until suth exchange is made they have no means of collecting the interest. In the face of these facts, the treasury is Especially anxious that the present announcement reach as many ( second ttberty loan bondholders as it is possible to reach through the press, the radio, and the bankB of the coun try. 'J'he second liberty loan, which was issued in November, 1917, was the second large loan floated by the government during the. World war, and while thia loan does not mature until 1942, the condition of the money market and of the government's finances makes it possible and advisable to call the bonds for redemption in November. Firebug Not Found Hock Hill, May 7.?'Investigators were baffled today in their efforts to discover a firebug who attempted to j set fife to a large warehouse in the city's business district last night and who is believed by authorities to have beep responsibly for a series of major fl^es during the last several months. Chief of Police Merritt last night prevented the burning of the cottonfilled warehouse when he pulled from under the building a blazing bundle of oil-soaked cotton waste, taken from the wheels of a freight car. On two i other occasions similar materials obtained from the same source have been found in burning buildings. With one exception the major fires of the last several months which hava caused |200,000 loss, occurred on Fridays. Widow Asks Large Verdict | Damages totalling $76,000 are sought by Mrs. Verna Cato, admin-' istrator of the estate of O. C.
