WELL, WHY NOT?

The sale of municipal bonds on the
bargain counter of a St. Paul depart
ment store is being talked about ev-
erywhere and there will doubtless be
some following of this lead, especial
ly when merchants discover what a
fine advertising scheme it is.
The wonder is that this thing
hasn't been extensively engaged in
long ago. Under present ways of
proceeding, the banks buy municipal
bonds drawing 4 or per cent with
the peoples money, for which the
bankers pay or per cent. 1t
would look pretty foolish in the peo-
pie to take their money to a bank
and get or per cent for it, when
they could take it to a department
store and get or 5 per cent for it.
Certainly it is better for a city to
have its bonds held by a thousand or
five thousand of it's own taxpayers
than by bond companies, often for
eign concerns, and the people who
vote issue of the bonds ought to be
unwilling to see them held very long
as unsold, as is often the case.
The trouble at present lies in the
fact that bonds are issued of large
denomination. Why not have mu-
nicipal bonds of SIS, SO and $40 de-
nomination? If such were the pol
icy, we would soon have 1000 bond
holders where we now have 10. And
why could not such bonds be used as
''the medium of exchange" in times
of financial stress? They surely
would be just as good money as
clearing house certificates.
Between the people as taxpayers
and the same people as a municipal
ity there is wide gap. Why not in
timacy? Why, when it is a rattle of
money for city Improvements, de-
pend upon outsiders to come forward
and take the certain profit?
-O-O
