Plan No. 1 is for payment in full with subscription. Plan No. 2, or Government plan, provides for an initial payment of 10% with sub- scription, the balance being payable in five additional monthly payments. Plan No. 3, the Bank plan, calls for 10% initial payment, with nine subsequent monthly payments. The interest rate specified is 434%, payable semi-annually, the bonds maturing in four years, and may be converted to any other issue. With these liberal features, Victory Bonds—absolutely gilt edged—are destined to become the most <2 investment proposition that has ever offered to the American people. In addition to the special investment features embodied in the Victory Liberty Logn, the State Victory Loan Committee is off a number of valuable prizes to stimulate rivalry between ous activities, to be a to those obtaining the best results. The Commercial and Industrial institutions of the State are divided into five classes: Class “A” being those having 2,500 or more employes, to which will be awarded an appro- priately engraved silver cup for the institution securing the amount of subscriptions per capita; also six gold medals which will be awarded to six solicitors in the plant securing the largest aggregate subscriptions. Class “B” (1,000 to 2,500 employes) ~~ a silver cup and four medals. Class “C” (500 to 1,000 employes), one silver cup and three medals. Class “D” (100 to 500 employes), one cup and two medals. Class “E” (10 to 100 employes), one silver cup and one medal. af Pg Ps nage in the last named four classes to be awarded on the same basis as outlined for “ el a In addition to the prizes mentioned above, the committee will award to each solicitor secur- ing $5,000 or more in subscriptions a handsome watch fob. The cup, medals and fobs are now on display in the “Victory Liberty Loan” show window of Friedlander & Son, corner Second Avenue and University Street, where they were made.
