NEW PLAN TO MEET
WAR TAX ON NOTES
Virtual "Blanket Mortgage" on
Securities Escapes Big
Charge.
COSTS ONLY 81 CENTS

Tho stamp tax Of . cents per 500 on
promssory notes which goes into effect
on u December ! has brought change In
the usual collateral not; given by SOCK
Exchange broker for loan from bank.
In place OF the promissory note COZ
lateral agreement will be used by the
banks in doing this business beginning
Monday. THIS. IN popular phraseolo is
blanket mortgaE on all the securities
and assets OF the broker on deposit with
the banker o cover any and all indebted
ness. present or to b incurred. The bank
has lien no; only upon all securities de-
posted as collateral and upon any d 5posit
balance, hut also upon all property of
every description left with thu bank for
safek eping or otherwise, or coming into
the hands OF he bank In any way, as
security for any liability
This collateral agreement costs a rs
cent tax rather than the prohihitive tax OF
cents per 500 ~ the face amount Of
he note. Th, chief differences in the
collateral agreement from the cola ,erai
not are that IN the agreement there is
no promise to pay. nor is there any state
ment OF the amour; of any specific loan.
The banker. however is even more fully
protected than IN the note. because OF the
sweeping claims given him. and as he
can make sure before any loan Is made
that the amount Of collateral security de-
posted by the stock Exchange borrower is
sufficient to cover all loan needs over a
period OF time.
The collateral agreement. though an old
form of contract ussd during the Spanish
war tax on prymissory notes and con-
tnucd since by number II banks. has
not been in as general use In recent years
as the promssory collateral note
The presen, war tax law makes special
provision chat II is no, intended by THIS
act 10 impose a tax chat OF cents y r

Notwithstanding unparalleled in his
tory--the doors of the New York Stock
Exchange were reopened yesterday for
business in bonds. There were no formal
ceremonies. but the event would scarcely
have been more impressive II there had
been.
Long before the official hour for re-
opening the approaches to the exchange
presented busy appearance. The lobbies
soon became crowded and on the floor
OF the exchange three or four hundred
brokers assembled to show their enthusi-
assn. AS 10 o'clock drew near hush
fell over the floor Then came the clang
of the gong that announced the official
reopening OF the exchange for business
Instantly the brokers burst INTO cnecrs
and further vented their enthusiasm ny
throwing scraps of paper into the air
The hfty or sixty brokers who make up
the bond crowd then settled down To-
business and the onlookers driftsd to
other parts OF the floor.
Numerous visitors were attracted by
the event. but except where the proper
credentials were presented entrance TO the
gallery was not permitted.
