HASTINGS, Neb.. April 2a-(special)-
In view of the gradual and general lower
ing of the interest rate on first-class Sc
~curities the Board of Education of the
Hastings school district hopes to be able
to sell the proposed building bonds on a
basis OF l per cent less than the interest
rate Of those sold five years ago.
The building committee of the board,
composed of Messrs. Van Patten. c.. O..
Lane and Ray Damerall. met with the
bankers Of the city Monday TO consider
various forms for the proposed bonds. One
proposition TO be considered was for the
issuance of the bonds in the denomination
of 800. so that citizens OF Hastings wish
ing to invest mall sums might be at
tracted by them. All in the conference
agreed, however, that to make the bonds
800 each might hazard their sale TO the
larger dealers In securities and for this
reason the committee. accepting the ad-
vice of the bankers, as we'll as following
their own best judgment, will report in
favor of making the bonds 1900 each.
The committee will also recommend that
the interest rate be SA or SN per cent,
preferably the former.
