American Sugar Company are coupon

at the National City Bank, New York,
Your own bank would probably accept
them as cash deposit to your account.
They are secured by the deposits of

the American Telegraph and Telephone
Company common stock good invest
ment, but here again you are confuse
ing stock and bonds Stock does not
have security of principal in the sense
that bonds do. There is no promise to
pay back the principal at any future
time. If You desire to get back your
principal you will have to sell at the

The Tincher Bill

W. B. Pollock, president of the New
York Produce Exchange, declined yes
terday to discuss the Tincher bill
passed by the House of Representa-
tives, but other members of this ex-
change said they expected strong OPP
position to the measure in it's present
form when it reaches the Senate. The
bill as now written proposes TO regu-
late transactions on boards of trade
and grain exchanges, restrict opera
tions in future, and provides for the
establishment of central contract
market under the supervision Of the
Secretary of Agriculture. A member
of one firm which has a seat on the
Produce Exchange said that restriction
of operations in futures might prove a
serious factor in declining market,
as, for example, the holder of a large
amount of cash wheat protects his
holdings against loss by going short of
future contracts. He thought the
whole bill was contrary to the declara-
ton of the new Administrative for less
government in business.
