Amendment No. IA.

Bonds issued by municipalities for public improvements, under Municipal Bond Amendment No. IA, can never be sold for less than par, and the maximum rate of interest for cities of the first-class is 5 per cent, and 6 per cent for cities of the second class. It is seldom that bonds issued by small improvement dis tricts bring par, which is a loss to the property owner. The city of Fayetteville discounted a bond issue of $11O,0O0 by $11, 900, which is money paid out for work not done, and a re-cur- renee will be prevented by the adoption of the proposed amend ment. It is difficult to sell a small issue of bonds, but those backed by municipality, and by a vote of the people, are easily disposed of at par.
