CANAL BONDS TO
BE ISSUED SOON
100000 0 Worth Of Paper win
Be Offered for Sale by
SccsstaFy MacVsagh
June or July
'sea .ho Arkansas G .zette.


Washington, April 2.-One of the
most important financial innovations
ever inaugurated by the federal GOV
eminent will soon be made by Secre-
tary Franklin MacVeagh of the
Treasury department.
About June Or July he win offer
for sale $53.001.0O1 worth OF Panama
Canal bonds, bearing 3 per ceat inter-
es,. The announcement of this issue
six months ago did not create any ex-
element, nor did il affect Wall street
in the least. The financiers, however.
were som swhat perturbed when it was
found that Congress had decided to
issue the bonds without giving them
the circulation privileges. That is.
national banks cannot buy the bonds
and issue bank notes or their security.
The only hope of profit in this con-
nection for fnanciers will be a small
commission for buying the bonds for
customers, who will hold the bonds
for investments.
When these bonds are offered for
sale it will be the first time in the
history of the Treasury Department
since the enactment of the national
banking law nearly half century ago
that similar bond issue was contem
plated, an issue without the circula-
ton privilege. BY circulation privilege
is meant the use of government bonds
by national banks as security for bank
notes which they issue as money.
Already About $4,000, 900.
There are already outstanding about
$S5,000,0 900 worth of Panama canal
bonds. but they only bear about 2 l-2
per cent interest. These have the cir
culation privilege. The contemplated
issue. however, will only be held by
the investing public. Should the
banks buy them, about the only use
they could make of them will be to re-
sell them to private parties who are
looking for gilt-edge investments.
Should the money market be flooded,
money easy, and at the same time
hard to loan. it may be that some
banks will hold the bonds as invest
ments, but it is expected that only
few Of them would tie up their surplus
In this way.
What the secretary OF the treasury
does expect, and what is most likely
10 happen. is that the people of the
United States, the ordinary folks with
mail amounts OF money laid away in
rational banks or in private banks,
rawing very little or no interest, will
0uy these bonds and hold them as Sc
cnrity. They afford the best security
ID the world. They will be easily con-
Vertible into cash, and are as good as
old any day in the year. Should
Secretary McVeagh wish to float a
nan of ten times the amount of the
sue it is assured that these bonds
Xould sell readily for the issue and
build not cause ripple on the finan-
sci market.

thing. Let's wake up. Let's do away
with the dust nuisance on Main street.
THE RENT HOUSE SITUATION.

Bryan Is in position right now to
expand and develop in business way,
and also to increase in population
faster than at any time in the towns
history IL it only had chance. To
grow means more houses and more
people. Every house in Bryan is full
There is not a residence OF any KIND
to be had. Then, in heavens name,
how is our population going to grow
True, a few people are coming here
and building homes, but 1t would take
long time for the population to very
materially increase in this way. II
there we're plenty of houses, Bryan
would have five hundred more people
within the next six months.
Then what is to be done? There is
but one thing that can be done, and
that is to build more houses. But who
will build them? Men with money say
rent houses are poor property. That
they can not be rented for enough to
make the investment pay as much as
eight per cent. This no doubt is true.
But while it is true, still the situation
must be met Bryan has got to have
more houses. If none of Bryan's
monied men will build them and be
satisfied with little less revenue on
their investment, then the next thing
to do is to try to interest outside capt.
tai in the form of building and loan
association. There is plenty of capital
that would be we'll satisfied with a
return of five or six per cent. 1t can
be brought to Bryan. How will we
go after it?
Let the Commercial Club get right
down to business on the "rent house"
proposition and solve it. 1t is serl-
Gus proposition and upon 1t hinges
largely the future growth Of Bryan.

THE PROBLEM OF MAIN STREET.

Something should be done with
Main street. 1t is awful. 1t is VERT
able Sahara desert The sand is a
foot deep. 1t is full of chug holes that
make it well nigh impossible. 1t is
one continual, long-drawn-out, never
ending funnel Of dust, binding and
sitting both man and beast. sitting into
buildings day and night and covering
floors, furniture, merchandise and ev
finest jewelry in our jewelry stores
the most delicate Dresden china in
our china shops, milady's hats, dainty
dress fabrics, shoes, hats, clothing
everything is covered with dust. Moth
ing escapes. 1t is fight from day to
day, week to week, year to year
against the dust. 1t is never ended,
but must be taken up afresh every
morning and waged with relentless
vigor to keep from being engulfed and
swallowed up in dust.
The damage to goods every year is
more than enough to pave Main street
from one end to the other, but still the
fight goes on. 1t is continual nui-
sance that can scarcely be endured,
yet the fight goes on. 1t is fruitful
source of sickness, carrying disease
germs on every breath. yet the fight
goes merrily on. Great God is there
to be no end to it? How long, oh
Lord, how long? Can it be possible
that a city of Bryans wealth, of Bry-
ans polish and refinement, of Bryan's
Intelligence, can not meet situation
like this and solve it?
