is the second largest debt balance that the
subtreasury has had since the bond pur
chases released some of tho treasury cash
in this city. Today's payments bring the
subtressury bond disbursements to about
50 300. 600.
1t was pointed out In banking circles
today that the financing Of the city loan,
requiring s5.o50,900 caused sitter rates
for money today. Tho city bonds have
thirty years TO run, paying i-2 per cen'
interest and cost but 106. -Four per cent
government bonds. redeemable under the
treasury circular. have only eight years
to run and bring 113, the per cents ma
ture in Ave years and sell for Ill.
For this reason It VIII be seen that saw
ings banks could easily afford to turn
over their aud s per cent bonds TO the
government, Investing the proceeds in long
term municipal securities at a profitable
basis. A local savings institution is said
10 have secured most OF the city bonds.
The proceeds of the sale viii so into the
regular municipal repositories.
