Investment Results

We sold to investors during 1920
$4I ,oo7 900 of Guaranteed Mortgages and
Mortgage Certificates netting not over 512%
in a financial market where as high as 8 or 0
per cent. was being offered on what looked
like good loans
Why was this possible One reason was
that we paid in 1920 10 holders Of Guaran-
teed Mortgages. whose mortgages matured
and who wished TO realize, $3o,7oI 900. They
received at par just what they had invested.
The fact that holder OF a Guaranteed
Mortgage is assured that he can do this,
that he can readjust the rate Of interest to
the market every three or FIVE years, and
that he has not made 80 or so year contract
which he cannot get out Of for the period, ex-
cepting. perhaps, at heavy loss, keeps the
Guaranteed Mortgage in a class by itself as
the premier investment.

New York Herald Bureau,
Albany. April :.
Amendments to the new State prohi-
bition enforcement laws, carrying out
suggestions of the New York district
attorneys, are contained in bill in
troduced to-day by Senator Mullan and
Assemblyman Gage.
The proposed changes will permit pre-
senting prohibition cases to the Court
of Special Sessions as well as to a Grand
Jury. In the Special Sessions neither
Grand Jury indictment nor a trial by
jury is required
The purpose of the measure is to re-
lleve the pressure OF business in the
Court of General Sessions as we'll as to
make convictions more contain. At the
hearing on the enforcement laws the
District Attorneys told Governor Miller
that 1t was almost impossible to secure
convictions from jury because of the
unpopularity of prohibition in New York
They said that If the law were not
amended it would require six new Cen

want them to look to America as an in

causes which led to the United States
entering the war-''the onslaught OF ar
rogant militarism supported by a certain
dlsloya element here at home and
continued:

citizens. whom he said he had seen fight
under the American flag in the Phillip

Pershing said that often their enthusi-

any native born "wlao have not always
lived up to the obligations OF their
birth"
MANY of us often consider too light
~ our obligations toward those who
come to cast their lot with u.s. he said.
Many native Americans. into whom the
inheritance of liberty has sunk through
generations. are too often Indifferent TO
the enlightenment of those whom we
have invited to our shores. Communities
too often neglect to show a kindly in

them for the duties of citizenship. We
must make our democracy self protect
