EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
Belgian Dollar Bonds.

Continuing the discussion of the
bonds of the Kingdom of Belgium. the
redemption provisions of the three
issues most recently offered are of no
present importance-that is To SAY.
he market price is 50 far below the
redeema BILE price that the latter may
he diSreSa rded for the present AT least .
The investor then is al liberty then
10 select the one that gives the lar
geSt current return and matter
Of fact they all sell 10 yield approx
matelv the same amount. All three
have the benefit of substantial sink
ing funds which. however. are used
to buy bonds in the open market.
Until the market price has advanced
to parity with redemption figures
there are no drawings. The IS. which
are due January |. 1888, have a sink
ing fund amounting to Sl,lG1.0 900 an
nually payable in equal monthly in
stallments to buy bonds up to par
The SIS. which are due September |.
1929. have an annual sinking fund of
81 200 900. TO be used to buy bonds at
not over par. The Is, which are due
June /. 1888, have sinking fund
amounting to S26S,750 Semi-annually
TO buy bonds up to 1922.
Belgium has funded its war debt to
the United States Government subject
to the approval of the terms by Con
gress. The investment risk, which at
taches to its bonds. does not involve
the character of the Belgian people or
their Willingness to meet their en-
gagements. 1t is concerned solely
with the financial condition of the
country and with political develop
mentS in Europe. As to the first con-
sderation there is no present reason
TO doubt the security of any of these
Belgian issues. The investor will have
to make up his own mind about the
political outlook. but all the recent
developments along that line have
been enCOura ging.

IN equal that of 1924, falling selow
$500 900 900, in contrast with almost
$4,000 600. 900 the preceding year. This

that there was less incentive for the
