who wish to have their investment in

books Of stamps have the privilege OF
exchanging War Savings Stamps of
the 1919 issue for treasury savings
certificates. Cards filled with 20 war
sa wings stamps, total maturity value

ten such cards, with a total maturity
value of 81, 0GO, can exchange them for
a 81 200 certificate
The treasury department, in issuing
the savings certificates, was convinced
that their unusual attractiveness as an
investment would assure large sales,
quite apart from appeals for support
of the government by loans or argu-
ments as to the personal advantages Of
saving and investment. But these
arguments apply and add overwhelm.

any individual or corporation. This

LIBERTY BONDS

Present Market Quotations.
Financial Experts Believe Every
Issue viii Be Above Par Within
Few Years.

Paralleling the treasury depart
ment's effort to bring about wider
realization OF the value OF investment
in war savings stamps and treasury
savings certificates, a call has been
sounded urging the public 10 make the
most of the markets investment op
poruunities by purchasing Liberty
bonds at their present quotations. 1t
is pointed out that it is just as patri'
otto today to buy Liberty bonds at
"a. 50 or SO as ii was to buy them at
100, while on the other hand, it makes
the investment just that much better
for the man who buys. For instance,
a Az per cent Liberty Bond, IL bought
at 90 for example, yields 4.52 per cen
1t is pointed out also that the fall in
value which has taken place in some
Liberty bond issues is an excellent
reason why those who own the bonds
should hold them now, rather than sur
render them at a loss. In purchasing
the bond, the buyer tacitly agreed to
Les the government have the money for
10 or 90 years, or whatever the term
was. He gets less for the bond, ii
sold now, because he does not abide
by the implied terms of the agreement.
He wants his money back now instead
of waiting the period of years stated
on the bond he bought.
EYcry bend will be worth par at,
maturity and long before that time
in the opinion of leading bankers,
Financial experts are of the belief
that every issue of Liberty bonds will
go above par within a few years. As
capital piles up again and interest
rates drop. the rates borpe by the Lib.
erty issues will seem correspondingly
large and the value of the principal as
invested. the bond itself, will be cor
respondingly greater.

But we cant continue increasing our
our railroad facilities.
The farms, mines and factories cannot
increase their output beyond the capacity
of the railroads to haul their products.
Railroads are now near the peak of their
carrying capacity. !
Without, railroad expansion-more en-
gines, more cars, more tracks, more ter
minalS-there can be little increase in
production.
But this country of ours is going to
keep right on growing-and the railroads
must grow with it.
To command in the investment markets
the flow of new capital to expand railroad
facilities and SO increase production
there must be public confidence in the
future earning power of railroads.
The nations business can grow only as
fast as the railroads grow.

Utterly impossible.

1t was at the Grand Canyon Of the
Colorado last fall. I stood: On the

converse with, Albert, the king OF the
BelgiEns.
"What fine place this would have
been to drive the German army into,"
I remarked, with that disregard for
precise diotion that comes in casual
talk.
The king looked appraisingly out
over the vast cleft, and down into Its
dizzy depths, and with that regal dig

impressive pauses between his words
that marks his speech in English, re-

of the presence Of many American
children in Coblenz, and the fact that
there was no suitable school for them
