September 10- Secretary McAdoo of the treasury de partment, has issued a statement that the campaign to sell the second issue of Liberty bonds will close on the first of November, 1917, and the active campaign will begin October 1st. The secretary explains that details ot the second loan cannot be given out until final action has been taekn by congress upon the war bond bill now pending, but announces that as soon as e new law has been passed the de tails will be given out. The secretary txpresses the hope that all existing Liberty loan commit tees will perfect their organizations and new organizations be effected in readiness for the next campaign. As in the first campaign the cam-* paign in each federal reserve district will be under the supervision of the federal reserve board, which will act a3 the fiscal agent of the government. The question of whether the United States government should engage in a policy of paying for advertisement in the newspapers has been much agitat ed of late, especially in regard to the selling of Liberty Loan bonds.* This cia „ throughout me being a strictly money matter, the “ all importations ot question comes up more squarely In r, reaching the Unit- connection with it than with registra- tion, food conservation or other gov ernmental publicity.

While acknowledging the tremendous value of advertising tho secretary points out that the relation of tho gov. eminent to the press and to tho pub lic generally is such that the question of paid advertising by it presents problem very much more complex than k would he to a private enterprise. The government cannot use the same thorough discrimination as to the med lums It should use, but would be oblig ed to he thoroughly democratic and im partial, and tho cost of sneh an un dertaking would be very great and would exceed the appropriation avail able under the existing law.

Crisp, of this city. However, he has practically abandoned that Idea, and, for that matter, is contemplat ing a retirement from politics alto gether. For a number of years he lias ably represented Terrell county or ills senatorial district in the legisla ture, ranking as one of the ablest mem bers of that body. Mr. Pickett states that on account ot business reasons ho iinds it impractica ble for him to give much of his time to politics, and for that reason he does not consider it at all likely that he will announce for congress.
