Internal vs.. External Loans.

A large number OF investors find for
eign bonds confusing, judging from the
letters on the subject received by THE
NEW YORK HERALD. The confusion
arises, apparently. from q lack of a
proper understanding Of the difference
between internal and external bond
issues. A large percentage Of the trans
actions in foreign government securi-
ties that have been made in the United
States during the last two years has
been Ia what is known as Internal
Bonds. There are securities issued by
Governments for sale within q territory
of the Government Issuing them. and
they are payable, generally speaking, in
the currency OF the particular Govern
rnent issuing them. For instance, the
United States Liberty Loan Issues are
internal bonds payable in United StateB
currency and only in the United States
An external bond is one issued by a
Government and sold to investors in an
other country. London has always been
the great market for external loans
Issued by Governments in all parts Of
the world. The distinction between an
internal and external loan Is clearly
seen In the difference between the
French Republic Tvs, brought out re-
Gently In the United States, which are
payable In dollars, and the French Re-
public 8s. brought out in France, pay
able solely in francs Purchases OF
French, Belgian. Italian, British and
German Intervals have been large in this
country. Recently South American in
ternals have commenced to attract the
attention of investors. The principal
feature OF Intervals Is the speculative
possibility through an advance In ex-
change. With the currencies Of almost
every nation of the world at q discount
as compared with the dollar. the oppor-
tunities for appreciation of principal arc
numerous and attractive.

To Close Liberty Loan Books.

To prepare for the payment Of interest
the transfer books OF registered AZ per
cent. bonds OF the Third Liberty Loan
will close at the Treasury Department.
Washington, at the close OF business on
August Is. one month before the interest
payment date. and will reopen on Sep
tember 10. Accordingly. applications for
transfers or interchanges Of coupon or
registered bonds OF that loan through
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York
should be made by noon next Saturday.
During the month when the transfer
books for the Third Liberty Loan will
be closed no transfers of registered
bonds or interchanges of coupon and
registered bonds OF that loan will be
made, but II requests for such transfers
or interchanges are received during that
period the requests will receive atten-
ton upon the reopening Of the books.
The New York herald., 1921-08-10
Bonds Called by Lot.

The effect on investment return Of
periodical call of bonds by lot at a
premium Is to increase the actual yield
OF q bond over its apparent yield. and
therefore the terms of the sinking fund
provisions should be carefully examined
by investors. In this connection one
bond house says: There Is an important
distinction In issues OF this type between
those which have a provision for COM
pulsory call by lot and those where the
call by lot Is an alternative to the pur-
chase of bonds In the market UP to the
premium price. In GLASS / are those
bonds which have a provision for COM
plete retirement through periodical calls
by lot at premium. In these cases a
fixed amount must be called each year
at premium, and all bonds are thereby
retired at the premium price. Since the
annual retirements are equal, the aver
age maturity OF these issues can reason
ably be figured to be a date approx
mately midway between the first and
final call dates. The investment return,
therefore, may fairly be computed to
such date at the premium price. Thus
the approximate yield Of French Ss to
the average call date is $50 per cent,
Belgium TVS, $50 per cent; City Of
Bergen SIS, $50 per cent. Sac Paulo SIS.
8.63 per cent, &c In class are those
which are periodically callable by lot
at premium unless they are purchase
able in the market up to the premium
price In these cases. since there Is no
definite assurance that bonds will be re-
tired by lot In advance Of the maturity
date, the yield may properly be com
puted only to the date Of maturity at
the final payment price. Tho feature Of
call by lot at a premium Is embodied In
but few domestic issues, conspicuous
among these being the United States
Steel Corporation ten to sixty year per
cent. sinking fund gold bonds and tho
new Issue of Goodyear first mortgage
