MUNICIPAL BONDS
RUSHING TO FRONT

With the Victory loan out OF the
way municipal and public utility
bonds arc coming to the front, &C
cordinE TO officials OF local invest
ment houses.
These two forms Of investment are
the most attractive on the market.
municipal bonds because Of their
tax free features and public utilities
on account of their high yield. Both
have the added feature of furnish
ing employment to returned soldiers
and others as they are issued for
the purpose OF making improve
ments
During the war all construction
work which was not absolutely neces-
sary was discontinued and many
municipalities are issuing bonds now
to take care of their long delayed
CONSTRUCTION. The same holds true
of public service corporations. The
Michigan Railroad Company has just
placed an issue of first mortgage 8
per cent five-year gold bonds through
the National City Company. These
are selling now at %, to yield I.21 per
cent.
Those speculatively inclined are, as
usual, trading in the stocks which are
most active, the oils at the present
time absorbing their interest. The
speculative. market according to many
financial writer's and brokers is at
the present time inflated, and they
are preaching caution and investment
in stocks which are at present rela-
lively below their proper level.

Whisky Seeks
A Market i'm Germany

Much of the whisky now in the
hands Of distillers in the United States
will be sent to Germany, it was learned
yesterday. The market in England is
overlooked with thc American prod
uct in France and other countries a
different sort of liquor is preferred
by most drinkers, it was said
The Transatlantic Commercial Cor
poraton, which is acting as exporting
agent for much of the whisky now on
the way to the scaboard, especially
from Kentucky. said to-day it was ad-
vising all it's clients to send the liuuor
to Germany, explaining that warehouse
space in Hamburg is plentiful and
cheap and that the opportunity to sell
the liquor appears good because OF
the interruption Of home production
during the war.
Arrangements already have been
made by one Kentucky distillcry to
ship to Germany 5,40O barrels.
Since last June one exporting agent
has sent $4,000 barrels of Kentucky
whisky to England. Much of this has
been put on the market, but it has
been found difficult to wean consum-
crs from Scotch.
