NEW YORK. October 13-The pres

United States. Treasury notes are worth
more than cash, or even gold.
The issues referred to are 3hs, 3As
and 334s which mature at various dates
between now and March l, next. And
the reason, of course. is that banks and
other large users of these highly liquid
Investments are anxious to have the
notes-even if a loss is involved-so as
to have a prior claim to new emissions
as they come out.
On one issue Of notes. the 3ss
maturing this week, the present market
price represents a minus yield of 1905
per cent per annum-a situation that Is
without precedent in the memory of
the oldest traders in Wall Street.
Recently subscriptions to new Treas
ury iSsues-both long and short term
have so vastly exceeded the sums to be
borrowed that banks applying for por-
tions have had to bid for 20 to 25
times what they really wanted-which,
of course made some of the applications
look ridiculous. A bank, for instance,
wishing to entrust the Government
with about $5,0O0.0 900, could not bid for
S100, ,000,000 to s125,00O,0 900 of a note or
bill issue Not only would that bid
probably exceed the size of the issue. but
it would represent sum that the bank
could not raise if it were called upon
to do So
Allotments in new Treasury issues are
par for par, however, when tie bidders
hold maturing Treasury notes or bills.
Hence the practice of taking in matur-
ing issues at a loss in order to get new
ones in exchange. In other words. a
brisk trade is being done in rights" to
buy Government bonds.
