The Boston Traveller is grieved be-
cause of a report that the war bonds
are rapidly falling into the hands of the
national banks, and it greatly fears
that they will be used as a basis of ad-
ditional issues of notes. The alarm is
probably groundIess. The accumula-
ton of money in the treasury can hard
~ fail to result In the calling in
of old bonds and in that case the banks
viii want something with which to re-
place them. If it be true that they are
acquiring the new threes it is likely they
are doing so with the above contingent
cy in view. They have no call to ex-
pand their circulation at present, when
there Is so much idle money in the
