Five or six hundred men formed a procession to the war ministry and pint a deputation to see the ministec, Who refused, however, to receive them.

Washington, April 15.--Terms of the Victory loan; the .last of the Liberty Issues, are announced in Any' form by Secretary of the Treasury Glfcss. The issuance, starting April 21, will tnke the form of gold notes which mature in four years and may be redeemed at the option of the - government at par and accrued interest after three years. The secretary calls upon the nation to subscribe a total of $4,500,000,000 which, with the heavy federal tax collections for 1918, has been found ample to meet the treasury's needs to its fiscal, year ending June 30. Two classes of notes wlil be issued. One, subjcct to all taxation with the exception of the normal income tax, state or local taxes, will bear 4% per cent Interest. This is an Increase of one-half of 1 per cent per annum over the rate borne by the third and fourth loans. The second note will bear lntet-est at the rate of 3% per cent and will be exempt from all taxation, with the exception of estate and inheri^ tance taxes. Both issues are convertible, one Intp the other, «t any time prior to maturity. The size of the loan is a surprising feature, as It has been generally conceded the government would ask for not less than $6,000,000,000. Also, the maturity is shorter than expected. It was thought the Issuance would be in the form of five-year notes. There will be no heavy oversubscription to the Victory loan, as Secretary Glass announces no oversubscription will be accepted by the government. However, all subscriptions up to $10,000 will be allotted in full. On the Liberty Isslffes, with the exception of the first, the treasury has accepted all oversubscrlpt'ons. The pro rata allotment of the Chicago federal reserve district Is $625,- 500,000. This compares with a quota of $870,000,000 on the fourth loan, to which the district returned total subscriptions of $969,000,000.

The statement follows: • ; "In view of the fact that the ques* tlons which must be settled In •tlM* peace with Germany have been brought so near to complete solution that they can now quickly be put; through the final process of drafting,! those who have b£en most constantly; in conference about them have decided' to advise that the German plenl-j potentiaries be Invited to trieet the! representatives of the associated bel-^ ligerent nations at .Versailles ohiS April 25. "This does not mean that the many' other questions connected with the general peace settlement will be interrupted or that their consideration which has long been underway, will be retarded. "On the contrary It. is expected that rapid progress will now be made with those questions, so that they may also presently be expected to be ready for final settlement. "It is hoped that the questions most directly affecting Italy, especially the Adriatic questions, can now be brought to a speedy agreement. "The Adriatic question will be given for the time precedence over other questions and pressed by continual study to Its final stage. "Thje settlements that belong especially to the treaty with Germany will in this way be got out of the way at the same time that ail other settle* ments 'are being brought to a complete formation. "It Is realized that though the process must be followed, all the questions of the present great settlement are parts of a single whole." One hundred billion gold .marks ($25,000,000,000) itf the amount Germany must pay the allied and associated governments for losses and damage caused In the war, plus other billions to be determined by a special commission on which Germany is to be represented. This final conclusion has Mfen reduced to writing after weeKPof negotiation which took a wide range and involved frequent changes and modifications. The payment of the 100,000,000,000 gold marks Is to be divided into three amounts, as follows: First, twenty billions ($5,000,000,- 000) within two years. Second, forty billions ($10,000,000,- 000) during 30 years beginning in 1921. Third, forty billions ($10,000,000,- 000) when a commission shrill determine how it shall be done. Germany must pay the $5,000,000,- 000 before May 1, 1921. She must also issjie immediately to the allied and associated governments $20,000,- 000,000 of interest-bearing bonds. The interest on the bonds until 1926 will be either 2 or 3 per cent and after that date will be 5 per cent. The bonds will be payable in installments during 15 years. They probubly will be kept In control of a central commission of the allied and associated governments, so they shall not be marketed in quantities sufficient to break the price. The exact amount of the Issue will be determined later according to the kind of money in which it must be paid. If the money is marks, the sum will be larger than $20,000,000,000 at the rate of exchange before the war, but that Is the general nominal sum. The mixed commission of representatives of the allied and associated governments and of Germany, which shall report before May 1, 1921, will determine what additional damages must be paid.
