A, FLEMING. The position of the Treasury was|' 8o satisfactory, entering the last halt of May, that no further government pubdlic loans are likely until the 1st or the 15th of June. Intérest was payable yel!erdly on. 'second liberty bonds. Thé Secretary has called for $41,- 000,000. to be paid in today and then ‘for $20,500,000 to be paid in Thursday from the" proceeds’ arising from :the -March 15 financing. s ‘The April “financing, 3% per cent certifieates, $150,000,009, has not ‘bee; called, even in- part, trom the bank making the les and buying the certificates; also there still remains $20,500,000 to the credit of the March proceeds, It is likely that the next call for funds from' the proceeds of. sales will take out the 00,000 and nearly & iike amount of the April proceeds. Money ‘is 80 - easily and plentiful that this financing is not likely to cause any flurry. With June 15 all 3% per cent vie- tory: ‘notes matire, interest is pay- able on first 3% s or 4% per cent lib- erties. Then two issues of Treasury certificates are payable June 15, with the part of the issues payable for the second instaliment of taxes, which becomes due on that date. For this reason it is likely that moaderately. large financing may be undertaken on that date. General opinion geems to’favor the 3% per cent rate of the last issue as likely to be maintained. | May Get Some Reltef. ‘While the members of the commit- tee of local bankers who called at the White House yesterday in order to solicit the President's influence for the enactment of a daylight savings law in the District were not success- ful, it is probable that they will be. successful in making some arrange- ment whereby the Treasury Depart- ment will accept. funds for transfer to Richmond at a later hour than 1 p.m. to meet the: exigencles of the. situation. The President. questioned the dele- gation until he uncovered the “sore point,”” and immediately suggested that he “guessed he could get Sec- retary Mellon to fix that.” $2,000,000 in Two Years.
