Perfectly secured by the entire re-
sources and the full taxing power oi

certificates are 100 per cenefs. In
addition to this. the terms of4ssue are
such that the price, increases monthly

the maturity year. the government
will redeem them at full face values.
1T Is to the investors benefit to
recognize some of the unique and at
tractive features OF the new treasury
savings certificates" said Mr.. Harri
son. Nowhere else in the world Is
there perfectly safe investment
from which one may withdraw ones
money on 10 days notice, that pays

These certificates may be redeemed
.one month after the month In which
they were bought. Ten days written
notice Is all that Is required for get
ting ones money back and repayment
is made at the certificates value IN
the month OF redemption. a higher
value than that at which 1t was
bought.
Protected Against Loss.
"An additional security attaching to
these certificates Is the requirement
that they be registered. The name of
the purchaser is written on the certif-
cate when 1t is sold and at the same
time is recorded by the treasury de-
partment. The loss of them does not
mean loss of the investment.
