REAL OPEN MARKET FOR CERTIFICATES
 PLAN OF BANKERS

NEW YORK, March 19.-Pros- poets for the establishment of a real open market for treasury cer- tificates of indebtedness and tax certificates are bright, according to New York bankers recently in a conference with Treasury and Fed eral Reserve officials. If this is done it is admitted it will cost the Treasury Department larger sum in interest charges, but it will broad en the demand for certificates and probably will suffice to get a good part of the government paper out of lie banks and into the hands of private investors and corporations It is contended that if the Treas ury would withdraw its opposition 10 allowing certificates to fluctu- ate with the general market there would always be an abundant de- mand for them. Bankers say the pale: is prime" in the highest sense so far as security goes, but the rates of interest are far below the market.

MERCHANT MARINE SUCCESS DEPENDS ON
 PRIVATE OWNERSHIP

NEW YORK-"Both the government and the Shipping Board realize our merchant marine must be privately owned to be successful. To get the advice of American bankers as to how best private absorption of the fleet is to be brought about, the Shipping Board and the president said Henry M. Robinson, former com missioner of the Shipping Board and now chairman of the Coal Com mission, in addressing the bankers that the President has asked to help in getting our merchant fleet private ly owned. The Shipping Board wishes advice from you bankers as to what are the most practical ways of offering this immense tonnage for sale so as to expedite as much as it can be the financing of companies and individuals who desire to buy the ships"
 MT. Robinson, in outlining the problem, remarked that while the fleet of 1900 steel ships of 1l000, 900 tons would when completed cost the government $2,500, ,000, 900, the Shipping Board realizes that to sell the fleet a world price must be put upon it instead of the $200 to $225 deadweight ton at which the ships have been sold in the past How ever" said MT Robinson, "even that uyilI ,,1t it,,ot ta1 hn or $1,S00 100000 in ships"
 Private absorption of the merchant fleet will result in wide interest in shipping securities, said MT. Robin son, and investors will look to bank CTS for guidance in the correct ap- praisal of these securities Reliable data, he added, is not now available upon shipping investments. To aid the bankers committee in grasping the problem in it's many ramifica- tions, the Shipping Board will, said MT. Robinson, place at it's command all the data the board has upon fin. ancial matters connected with shipp ing in the hope that the bankers committee will after sitting out the good from the bad, make it available to those interested in ship financing MT. Robinson said that while the Shipping Board did not expect the bankers to outline it's method of dis position of cargo ships it did hope that they will sift all suggestions and then as bankers advise upon the cnunraI o1 rNla of la that seem most practical, for it is realized that without aid and coopera- ton from the bankers the fleet can not quickly pass into private owner ship.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH WILL PUBLISH REPORT
 OF YEARS ACTIVITIES

The official board of the Presby-
 to make such arrangements as are
 necessary to complete the plan for
 every member canvass to take place
 on March 2S This completed plan
 will have in view the visiting of such
 members and adherents of the Pres
 byterian church who desire to give,
 to receive their pledges for the com
 ing year to carry on the work of the
 church in Juneau and elsewhere.
 The experience of the past year has
 warranted a large expectation on the
 part of the officers of the church. and fine response is in store for the
 work of the coming year. Quite a
 number have expressed their appre- citation of the businesslike manner in
 which the work of the church has
 been handled and are asking for an
 opportunity to contribute to the work for the coming year.
 The policy has been to receive the church support on the basis of will ing offering and happy service. No
 one is compelled to contribute, but all are urged to give as they are able and to the extent that they believe the church is meeting the demand of a church of active Christian peo pie, banded together for the sal vation of souls and the betterment of the community in which it is situated.
 The hours of 2 to 4 in the after noon of March 28 has been set aside as the time the canvass will be made. and it is hoped that all interested will either see some officer of the church or be in their homes at that time to receive those who will be chosen to make the canvass. After the congregational meeting is held the latter part of the month, full report will be published of the act ivities of the church for the past year.

LONDON SAYS N. Y. TELEPHONE SERVICE
 WORST IN WORLD

BOSTON, March 19.-The return of the London telephonic service to private ownership has been suggest ed in the House of oCmmons, ac- cording to dispatch. The advo- cates ot the step declared that the efficiency of the American telephone service had been increased after Federal control ended, Assistant General Pease replied that the American government control had been purely financial and had not effected efficiency. He said many American telephone services were almost perfect, but that New York E was worse than Londons.
