The treasury savings certificates,
ssued on the same basis as war saw
lnss stamps, whereby the purchaser
receives his interest in advance thru
an equivalent reduction in price, are
a short term security, maturing five
years from the first of January Of the
year in which they are purchased,
They bear four per cent intereGt, com
pounded quarterly, giving a yield Of
AZ per cent TO the man who holds
hem during the entire period of their
life
Perfectly secured by the entire re,
sources and the fun taxing power OF
he United States government the
certificates are 100 per cen safe. In
addition to this, the terms of issue are
such that the price increases monthly
snd with IL the value Of certificates
previously sold. On January lst of
