DON'T CASH WAR STAMPS
BEFORE THEY ARE DUE
Means Throwing Away Persons Saw.
ing and Running an Excellent
investment.

Every holder of a War Savings
Stamp certificate should examine
carefully the table of interest payment
on the back of the card. John HI.
Meyering, director of organization for
the central committee, called atten-
tion to the table today and pointed
out that while the stamp bought for
$4.13 this month increases in value
one cent a month until Dec. 81, 1928,
that brings it to a value of only SAT-
on that day. But the next day, JAN
uary 1, 1924, when the stamp is pay
able, the owner gets SIS for it. The
stamp thus increases in value 20 cents
over night from December 81, 1923,
to January l. 1924. This amounts
practically to one-third of the entire
interest payment, but this final third
is never received by persons who cash
in their stamps at the postoffice be-
fore they fall due.
"Cashing in War Savings Stamps
now is not only throwing away a per-
sons savings, is running an excellent
investment by seriously damaging the
rate of interest payment" said Mr..
Meyering. "It is that final 20 cents
added to the value of the stamp that
makes it good investment
Even more dangerous than losing
the interest is the scattering Of care
full saving. The man who could save
$4.12 to $423 in any month last year
is seldom forced to have the money
back today Unless he must have the
money back it Is a mistake for him
to change the stamp where his saving
is safeguarded, into the form of cash
It's too easy to spend loose change.
The whole history of savings shows
that the less accessible saved money
is, the more likely it is to stay saved
Money in War Savings Stamps or in
the bank is much safer than in the
pocket. 1t is great mistake to cash
in stamps which represent careful saw
ings of days that are past"
