interest has ceased. are yet outstand-

Department. These notes were called

but holders have been slow in pre-
senting them for payment it was said.
There are also outstanding about
slOO.0o0,000 of 1918 series of war saw
ingS certificates, on which interest
ceased the first of the year.
Treasury officials are doubtful If
all these obligations will ever be
presented for payment. There is
still unpaid a small amount Of bonds
issued during the revolutionary war,
and a larger amount issued during
the civil war, which have not been
presented for payment

BUSINESS REVIVAL
NOT NEAR BREAK
Treasury Officials Assert
Conditions May Improve
for Next Two Years.

Dangers Of an early break in the
business revival were secuted by high
Treasury officials today, who, pre-
dicted that the strength and conf
dence of the situation would con-
tinue throughout the present year at
least, and, unless thwarted by ex-
cesses, might last throughout the fol-
lowing year.
Much of the activity at present was
: said to be due to the necessity of
making UP for depletions of the war
period, such as car shortage and the
undersupply of homes. but it was ex-
planned that in addition to these de-
. mands on account OF depleted stocks
there was a natural growth of the
country which might continue the
strength of the revival on a fairly
high level for some time TO come.
Plenty OF Credit Available.
,, Plenty Of available credit exists to
take care of the demands in the
financial situation. 1t was said, al
though there had been an upward
movement in the federal reserve dis
count rate. warranted by the increas-
, ing demand, and higher rates in com
mercial circles.
! The interest rate on offerings OF
the Treasury for March refunding
was pointed to as 4 to u per cent
higher than II was last year at this
period, but officials predicted that
under the present prospects there
was little Likelihood there would be a
further advance any time soon.
Business Nearer Normal.
In fact, the progress Of the general
business condition of the country was
described by officials as more nearly
normal than they had been for
many months. Activity was declared
to be particularly pronounced In the
steel industry and in the railroad
equipment companies. No serious
shortage of labor existed. 1t was ex
planned. although there was said to
be need Of it In some few spots
Very little evidence of speculation
" 8 apparent. which was considered
wholesome aspect.
Demand May Improve.
Should there be a normal growth
in demand throughout the country.
II was explained that there might be
sufficient change in domestic CON
sumption somewhat TO offset the cur
tailed foreign markets. which have
been seriously affected by the serious
economic postwar situation in Eu-
rope.
Some little Hypothetical danger ex-
lsted in the future. II was admitted.
fate prices to the breaking point
which might in pinch precipitate "A
buyers strike. This danger, in view
OF the wholesome conditions ar pres
ent prevailing. II was thought. was,
in fact. remote.
Saturation Possible.
Some branches OF production within
a short time stood the possibility. il
was said, of reaching the saturation
point as to volume. particularly the
steel companies. Provided demand
continued, there was also some chance
in this connection that buyers would
place duplicate orders with more than
one company. thereby creating an ap
parently false conception of the ac-
tual mark ct demands.
Developments, in the progress of
the revival, would be impossible to
predict accurately for more than the
reasonable period Of the remainder of
the year. and IL was hoped by that
time there might be an easing off"
Of the situation which would enable
the revival to continue at wholesome

Weller ON Bank INQUIRY.

Senator Weller Of Maryland has
been appointed member Of the Joint
congressional committee which will
try to find out why 5000 eligible
state banks in the country have not
joined the federal reserve system.
AS Senator Weller Is a director OF
the Equitable Trust Company of the
Monumental city. which is not a
member of the system. he will have
some first-hand information as to its
reasons for remaining out.
In the federal reserve district in
which the Equitable Trust Company
Is located there are 622 banks which
are members Of the system and 1900
state chartered banks which are non
members. All of these state banks,
to be sure. are not eligible, but many
Of them are.

Cleveland Discount Compsuy.

borrowers from the Cleveland Dis
count Company on mortgages trus-
teed with the Hartman National
Bank of New York for series and
II collateral trust bonds issued by
the company have been requested to
make interest payments directly to
the Hartman National Bank and not
to the company. The Hartman Ma
tional Bank holds collateral securing
mortgage bonds as trustee and is
acting in the interest of the bond
holders.
A Cleveland dispatch says fifteen
branches. in addition to those closed
before the company went into re-
ceivership, have been closed.
Plans are under way to organize a
corporation to take over the business
of the company, which has an office
in the Munsey building in this city.

More Financing in May.

The close margin on which the
Treasury Will operate after March Is,
as indicated by comparison of the
anticipated income and known ma
turtles, makes certain that further
financing will take place in May upon
the maturity Of the remainder OF the
victory notes. But Treasury officials
are optimistic and assert that, while
further financing in the nature of
certificate issues will have to take
place in May. the recent steady re-
ductions made in outstanding paper
Of short maturity dates have placed
the government in a position salts
factory to those charged with the
administration of its finances. The
maturing victory notes will have to
be largely refunded, but the amounts
it is believed, will be small as COM
pared with Treasury certificate oper-
ationS in the past.
A formal statement by the Treasury
declared that when the March finan-
cling Is completed there will still be
outstanding approximately $1,000
100000 in certificates of indebtedness IS.
But this amount, the statement said,
is remarkably low for this stage of
the governments postwar financing

New Treasury Financing.

The Treasury moved another step
Yesterday toward concluding its re-
funding operations in connection
with the victory notes and war saw
ings stamps Of the 1918 issue. Two
new issues of Treasury certificates,
aggregating approximately $500, ,00o,-
900. were announced to cover the
March financing and at the same time
to aid In carrying the Treasury over
to the middle of May, when the last
Of the victory notes mature.
One issue will bear four and one
fourth per cent interest and will ma
ture September 15, and the other.
bearing an interest rate of four and
one-half per cent. will mature March
l5, 1924. Outstanding certificates
maturing March Is or any Of the
victory notes will be accepted in ex-
change for the new issues

$7OO,OOO,OOO in Maturities

About 1856, 100000 of Treasury GER
tifcates fall due March Is, coincident
with the tax payment which the
Treasury estimates will bring in
around s400,o00.000. On the same
date, liberty bond interest aggregat-
ing about 35.000.000 is due, while
there are outstanding something like
$50. 100000 in victory notes, which
were called for redemption last De-
cember. and more than $4,000. 900 in
war savings stamps which matured
January l remain unredeemed. The
Treasury, therefore, must make ar
rangementS to meet nearly $780,
100000 in maturities or have cash on
hand to take care of them and, at
the same time, be prepared to carry
on the usual government expendi-
lures.
