Banks Rush to Sell Treasury Certificates in Eight District
Banks across the Eighth Federal Reserve District back the Treasury plan to issue 750 million dollars in Treasury Certificates of Indebtedness. The St Louis District quota is 30 million dollars with offerings every two weeks until the Fourth Liberty Loan Campaign. Short term certificates mature October 24 and may be exchanged for long term Liberty Bonds. The scheme speeds government funds into commerce while easing the burden of a single large levy and aids the Liberty Loan's success.
