VETS HAVE FUNDS
 TO FACE FUTURE
Adjusted Compensation Certii- cateS Valued at SS,037,26i
BY CHOICE B. MANNING

pl bI-ofNIEA D. h.hNaNl-Nb
 Washington Bureau of the N. B. Herald
 Washington, D. C., Dec. 21-World War veterans of Connecticut will be able to call on the banks and trust companies for total of S3.037.26 to help pay their Christmas bills. if they so desire.-and if the banks are willing-after New Years Day.
 This amount represents the aggre- gate loan value of adjusted service compensation certificates, or so-call- ed soldiers bonuses" held by resi- dents of Connecticut who served in the armed forces of the United States during the late European un- pleasantness.
 The banks of the country, how ever, are looking little askance at this proposition. Indications are that they will be unwilling to handle any more of the loans on certificates than is absolutely compulsory. Banked by the Treasury of the United States, the bonus certificates represent as good security as Gov ornment bonds. but the security is indefinite, and if the veteran per sists in remaining alive and healthy. may run for maximum term of 20 years from January 1, 1925. They may be sold. transferred or reds- counted under regulations just is sued by the |. s. Veterans Bureau, but in one form or another they will represent just so much frozen credit. The cost of the routine necessary in making the loans is high. Detailed reports and transfers must be made, and the money will be a long time outstanding in most cases. This will be particularly hard on the smaller banks.
 The bankers also complain that the regulations issued for the mak ing of these loans are hay. Bankers organizations took up the matter three months ago with the Treasury Department, which passed them on to the War Department. and the lat ter in turn referred them to the Vet erans Bureau. Now, just a few days before the loan provisions go into effect, the bankers still claim that they lack adequate information on the procedure involved in making the loans.
 The Bankers also see in the loan provisions too many opportunities to be done" It is possible that a cer- tificate may be brought in as securi- ty for a loan when it already has been assigned, or pledged up to it's full value. With such assignments on record in the Veterans Bureau, the assignee will be paid the in surance in the event of the death of the veteran, and the banks will have hard time in collecting. The banks got in the case of the Liberty Loan bonds. Loaning money on the par value of the bonds, they were able to collect only on the market value, and many losses were sustained when the market price of the bonds was, down shortly after the war.
 It is probable that the banks will cndeavor to discourage borrowing on adjusted compensation certificates by making loans only to customers or recommended by customers, and by communicating with the Veterans Bureau in each case to ascertain the status of the compensation certifi- cate.
New Britain herald., 1926-12-21

The loan value Of these adjusted compensation certificates has been fixed by law as of January l, 1927, and it is provided that they should be accepted by any bank or trust company as security for loans made in the usual form. While not all of the veterans who hold adjusted compensation certificates will be seeking financial aid after the first of the year, still the banks are an- ticipating a heavy demand.
 Under the law, the banks will not be permitted to charge more for these loans than two per cent above the prevailing rediscount rate main- tained by the Federal Reserve Banks. This means that in the present instance, the loans will prob ably be made at around six per cent
 The 3.04S,932 service men of the United States who were issued ad justed compensation certificates fol- lowing the disposition by Congress Of the Soldier bonus" question by the provision for granting of Gov ernment insurance to veterans, hold certificates with an aggregate matur- ity value of $3,137, 65S, 062. The loan value of these certificates on the first of next year will total S216,66S.- GIG, and thousands of World War veterans undoubtedly will endeavor to take advantage of the provisions of the law which allow them after January 1 to gather in little im- mediate cash to help meet the heavy expenses of the holiday season.
 The law provides that two years after the date of issuance of the cer- value of 1-2 cents on the dollar, maturity value. Most of the certifi- cates were issued as of January l., 1925, and therefore may be used as security for loans at the banks on January 1, 1927. During the year the loan value will increase to to- tai of S262, 900, or we'll over a quarter of billion dollars for the certificates of all the veterans of the country. The loan value is stepped up each year. and in 1929 it will be $370,910,606; and 1880, S4S2, ,048.650.
 Thousands of ex-service men do not understand the loan provisions of the adjusted compensation certifi- cates, says the Veterans Bureau. Many believe they can plank them down for whatever cash value Is in dicated on the face. AS a matter of fact, the leash value" represents the value as security" and regular form of note must be negotiated at the bank.
