HA SKIN
THE HASKIN LETTER
COUPONS OF THE LIBERTIES.

The bonds are filed away and win rest
secure for twenty or thirty years.
The government has certain exper-
fences back of it upon which to base
judgment as to what is happening.
There was certain issue of bonds grow
ing out of the Spanish American war,
for instance. There were about one
garded as a stupendous issue in their
time. They matured in twenty years.
There are, however, 100000 of the m
still outstanding. Some of these have
been lost, some burned. some merely
filed away. Small amounts Of them
are still coming in.
A hundred dollar bond Of this issue,
if the coupons have not been detached
will have $50 worth of them payable
as interest. These bonds keep coming
into the treasury with all the coupons
$1OO demo mination is received, for in
stance, q check is sent to the owner for
it's face value, and an additional check
for SEQ on account of the coupons. A
formal slip is sent stating the purpose
for which the two checks are enclosed.
1t often happens, however, that the
holder of these bonds did not realize
that the interest was coming to him.
1t has even happened that the check
ury with a statement that a mistake had
been made.
Many Arr Cheated.
The most unfortunate phase of this
failure to appreciate the value of the
coupons is evidenced when the ununi-
formed holders of bonds offer them for
sale. If such holder takes his bond
to the bank he is given correct infor-
nation as to its value. There are a
great many individuals who are buying
bonds, however, who are less honest
II holder takes q bond to one of these
and offers it for sale it is likely to be
bought at the market price, and the
buyer profits illegitimately to the val
ue of the coupons. They are just so
much cash in his pocket. This is a
scheme through which dishonest dealers
in many localities are today defraud.
Ing the bondholder to the amount of
the coupons, which are like so much
gold In his pocket.
The government is attempting to edu-
cate the holders of its bonds to their
value and to an appreciation of the
fact that matured coupons are so much
cash. 1t is doing all that it can toward
advising a bondholder that a bank is
the proper agency TO tell him the value
of his bond and to cash his coupons. III
is also advising it's bondholders against
selling their government securities. A
multitude of bondholders, indifferent to
the virtues Of a sound investment. have
thrown their securities on the market
at the first feeling of money need
and have thus run the market down.
When these bonds have been absorbed,
the relation between supply and demand
In the market will be different and the
price will steadily advance Judging by
the experiences of the past, Liberty and
Victory bonds will, within a few years,
be above par and greatly in demand.
Wise is the man who holds his bonds
and wiser is he who digs up his savings
and puts them in those government
securities while they may be bought at
SO low figure as at present.

At this resting place of coupons you
see how the mill works through which
the government pays interest on the war
debt. One whole floor is given over to
the receipt of these coupons. They
come in from the banks by registered

force can distribute and cancel them.

Each Coupon Has a Home.
These coupons are first classified Each
of them is then run through a cancel
ling machine. Each is examined to see
that it is genuine. Each has a place
>in the files just back of the cards which
carries the number of the bond from
which it was detached From the time
it leaves the scissors of the bond own
er it is circling about like a boomerang
in its flight, but its planes are so set
that it will find its resting place behind
this particular card. Each coupon for
each bond, when the years have passed
that bring it to maturity will eventually
rest here.
In round numbers the government has
S21 600, 100000 worth of these bonds
out among the people. This means that
1t is paying interest on that money
which it has borrowed from them. 1t
pays about nine hundred million dol
lars year, two and half million a
day, as interest on this debt. That is
more money than it cost to run the gov
ernment decade ago. 1t is SS for every
citizen.
These bonds have exerted great
educational influence on the whole peo-
pie. Before the war there were COM
paratively few who had had the expert
ense of clipping coupons. Now nearly
everybody does it. Most people cash
their coupons through their banks and
in this way the operation almost auto
maticaiiy takes care of itself.
There is evidence, however, that many
holders of these bonds do not appreciate
the value of the coupons. Nearly every
day at the treasury letters are received
enclosing these coupons with checks for
their face value. These writers say that
they have bought bonds and now want
to pay the interest on them. They do
not appreciate the fact that they are
to get the interest. They have bought
the bonds as patriotic service and be-
lieve they must pay additional periodic
installments to the government.
