Bonds as Best Buy"

QusTlon-wni appreciate your opinion
on the following questions. What ak
listed" hrst nrrigsge bonds ere the best
buy" a. present. Whit money rates low
.fing. do you consider high coupon bonds
or low the better From the following
lisi will you rank In numerical order the

um OIL 7s7 Thanks. G. X.
Answer-Our Interpretation Of best
buy leads us 20 consider safety and
marketaDility ss qualifications and does
not include possible appreciation in
price. We would select the following
bonds, not necessarily as the best six
first mortgage bonds 70 buy, but as six
OF the best to buy; Atchison general

1868; Union Pacific 4s. zoos; New York
e. Putnam Is, 1893; Chicago. Buring-
ton q Quincy Is, 1858. and Southern
Pacific Is, 1855. The rate for money
would make no difference as 20 selec-
tion Of bonds bearing a high or low
, interest rate we're IL not for the psy-
Geological consideration. II 1854 is
paid for 6 per cent bond maturing
IN ten years and 90 is paid for n per

return 70 maturity is practically the
same. but in the first mentioned in
stance an amount must be deducted
from each interest payment sufficient
10 amortize the premium paid. so that
principal will be intact at maturity.
/ II simplifes the situation IL a bond
bearing a smaller coupon rate and SELL
! ing at a discount is selected and there
is the probability that only income re-
eeiyed will be expended and at matur-
ity the appreciation Of capital obtained
by repayment OF the bond at par will
! remain intact. Il is for this reason
I that We favor a bond bearing the lower
interest rate. We would not class the
bonds you list as investments without
modieum Of risk to varying business
conditions that might result TO the
detriment Of some and 20 the benefit
Of others. They are about in the same
elsss-suitable for an active business

Answer-We think you would be
justified in exchanging the Victory
notes for good bonds OF more distant
maturity. Strnus real estate mortgage
bonds are good investments, in our
opinion. and IL Is our belief that you
might we'll enlarge your investment in
them since you hold number OF
readily marketable bonds and stocks
that deserve a permanent place in a
conservative investment. Keep all
your bonds except the American Su-
matra rs and Invincible oil s.. You
might also retain the Standard Oil

ferred, Union Pacific and New York
Central. but the other four stocks.
namely, Midvale Steel, American Su-
matra. Pure oil and Cities Service pre-
ferred are hardly suitable for per-
son who will soon become dependent
on tho income from investments. In
asmuch as you are not now dependent,
however. we think you might retain
these stocks until they have ap-
preached more closely to the orig-
nal purchase price, IL you feel so in
clined. That Is 20 say. We see no
cause for hurrying a sale until you
are actually dependent on the income

y. II. r.
Answer-we approve Of the sale OF
the Treasury certificates and tho Union
Pacific convertible Is only on account
Of their relatively short term. Other
wise they are highly desirable for in
vostment. In view OF the fact that you
propose 10 sell also two speculative
stocks and one second grade debenture
stock, and the additional fact that the
securities which you would purchase
are Of good grade, we think your plan
is logical and sound.
