DISCUSS BUYING BONDS

Commissioner Hobsora. of Adnz1nfstras

A million dollars worth OF liberty

turn paid for by school children and
city employees in five years. Is a plan
discussed yesterday by Commissioner
Graham 3. Hobson. OF the adminis-
trative board. Mr.. Hobson stated That
II Richmond could carry out SONS
plan of this kind Immediately. she
would be the first city in the country
to do so. and would acquire a con-
siderable feather in her cap,
As he pointed 1T out. the plan would
consist in the city borrowing a million
dollars from the federal reserve bank.
on which three and half per cent
interest would be paid The liberty
bonds. pay this same rate of interest,
and the school children would be en-
abled to contribute, in small amounts
and in small pools. thereby purchas-
ing shares IN the bonds The same Of
fer could be held out 10 city employees,
and WOULD be good investment as
we'll as a patriotic move on the part
of those who might not be able to do
anything more.
Certain charter and constitutional
provisions. how ever. would be a draw
DaCk 10 lne plan. II Is UNDERSTOOD.
Whether or not the city has a legal
right to borrow money under sUch con-
ditions, is question. And whether
this much money could be borrowed.
with the city as security. without a
vote OF e majority of the citizens Of
Richmond, is still greater question.
But 1t Is agreed that the soiI!t of the
Ian is an excellent one whatever its
legal status may be.
1t is further argued that the liberty
loan proposition is one of immediate
necessity and resorted to for imme-
date action. In this case. IL would
hardly be made to apply to an action
by the city such as Mr.. Hobson refers
to. because 1t would require consider

to be passed by the city council No
definite steps have been taken to worl,
