Rediscount Rate
On Treasury Bills
Advanced to p. C..
Action of Federal Reserve
Bank Removes Differen-
tial in Favor of Certifi-
Gates of Indebtedness

The Federal Reserve Bank Of New
York announced late yesterday after
noon an increase in the rates on adj
vances and rediscounts secured by GER
tificates Of Indebtedness from Az per
cent to 5 per cent. This change, which
is the first increase since the general
revision upward on January 90 last,
removes the differential in favor Of
certificates of Indebtedness as against
bankers acceptances.
All other rates of discount remain
unchanged. This announcement, made
after the board of directors of the
Reserve Bank had been in session, was
IN accordance with the general expecta-
ton in the financial district. 1t was
explained that the latest raise was
part OF the general campaign initiated
by the Federal Reserve Board to relieve
the credit strain and discourage over
expansion. Since the January %
chedule was announced there had
against certificates of indebtedness as
result of the favorable rate.
The commercial paper rate remains
at 3 per cent; that on advances and re.
discounts secured by Liberty bonds and
victory notes u per cent and that on
bankers acceptances 5 per cent
Sponsors Of the acceptance market
nave urged the necessity of putting
bankers acceptances on as favorable
basis as certificates of indie BITE dness
Tor some time, pointing out that the
differential in favor of certificates was
hating the necessary development of
discount market in this country.
The increase in the rate announced
yesterday revived reports that the
Treasury Department would put out
new certificates at 5 per cent. Many
bankers are of the opinion that the
Treasury ought in the future to bor-
row at the prevailing market rate. and
not under the market, as in the past,
by means of utilizing the machinery Of
the Federal Reserve system.
Call money yesterday opened at Z per
cent and closed at 10 per cent. Bor-
rowers bid between 81 and per cent
for time money, and extremely little
was lent.
The Philadelphia Federal Reserve
Bank also Increased the rate on ad-
vances and rediscounts secured by GER

By sending 10 a mail order house.
The mail order habit is a forced,
unnatural habit IL can be developed
only with mere asing difficulty, and
it is TO loo doubted whether the mail
order concerns can maintain even in
the near future anything like the
rapid rate OF growth that they have
thus FAR had. Even among the most
confirmed mail order addicts there

which are rcquircd quickly will be

to believe that he should have the
entire trade of his community, unless
that community was so isolated that
there was absolutely no way for the
people TO got merchandise except
through him.
No retailer could expect to get all
the trade because the matter of indi-
vidual preference enters so largely
into the act OF buying that. if any
retailer had every single article oil
merchandise in me world but one,
some customer would come along who
wouldn't want anything but that one
missing article, and that customer
would send to the Fiji Islands, if nee
esSary to get that article.
Tho very personality which must be
expressed intentionally or in spite of
intention, through every business, will
attract some and repel others. These
facts are generally recognized, but
they are worth repeating with the
assertion that in any country there
viii always be certain parts OF the
population which fan within the nat
ural field of each institution, and this
is true OF the mail order trade.
The people who may he claSsed as
natural mail order patrons might as
well be left to trade with these con

his efforts to serving the wants OF
the rest Of the community. And in
serving the wants of the community
