WE FREQUENTLY hear farm
w ers raise the question as to
whether or not they should buy
War Bonds as long as they are in
debt. The answer to this question
should depend in large measure
upon the nature Of the debt and
whether or not it is current. If part
of it is past due, and the borrower
expects to experience difficulty in
meeting past due payments, he
probably should bring his debt into
current position before investing
in Bonds. If, however, his pay
ments are current, there seems to
be no reason why farmers should
not buy as many Bonds as they
are able. Most individual invest
ors in government Bonds are car
rying debt in one form or an
other, at rates higher than the
Bonds will yield. This is as it
should be if the purchaser is in an
earning position which permits the
accumulation of some surplus, for
we all owe it to our government
to do our utmost in the financing
of the war, even though the trans
action may result in our paying
some extra interest on outstand-
ing debts.
When a farmer owes money, he
is always concerned as to whether
his crops will sell at prices which
will enable him to repay his debt.
When prices are high it is good
business and conservative finance
to reduce the debt as rapidly as
possible because when prices are
low, it takes more crops and more
efforts to make the payments.
We should not forget, how
ever, that a government Bond
will pay off an equal amount
of dollars of debt, no matter
whether prices are high or
whether prices are low. 1t is,
therefore, a sound and con-
sentative practice to buy gov
eminent Bonds and lay them
Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1944-10-26
The Farmer and

Master of the National Grange

aside to make payments on
existing debts when they fall
due. In fact, quite aside from
the patriotic appeal, it is good
business to buy Bonds rather
than make pre-payments on
debt, because the time may
come when the ready cash is
needed and the money tied up
in pre-payments cannot be re-
turned. If this money is in
vested in Bonds, it can be con-
verted into cash to meet any
needs which may arise.
If everyone followed the policy
of buying no War Bonds until their
debts were paid, few Bonds would
be sold to the public We have an
obligation to help finance this war
which is vastly more important
than the income we may receive
on the investment of money in
War Bonds.
Farmers are finding it impossi-
BILE to maintain their machinery
and buildings in satisfactory
state of repair. They are finding
that they cannot replace. WORKOUT
equipment except at excessively
high cost.
1t would seem to be sound
and conservative business
practice to lay aside money
to make the repairs and re-
place worn-out equipment
when material and machines
are again available. No safer
place can be found to lay aside
money for such purposes than
in government Bonds.
Every time we buy a Bond we
are not only assisting in financing
the war, but we are also doing our
bit to prevent that most dreaded
economic disaster called imitation.
If!each one of us would invest as
much as we could in government
Bonds, the danger of imitation
would be greatly reduced.
