YOUR

Smort-Money Spectators
~ SYLVIA PORTER

in 1868 TO raise SIS billion OF
cash.
on Monday, April. 7. the
one day the treasury was ac-
cepting orders 10 the new issue,
Joe placed 10 subscriptions.
each for $4,000 OF notes,
through 10 different banks or
brokers, For each subscription,
Joe paid the required down
payment Of 10 per cent or ST.
900, His total investment,
therefore, was $4,000.
on Friday, April II, the
treasury announced II had
been swamped with orders for
the new notes and II could MI
only a fraction OF each order
but II also announced that II
would allot all subscriptions
of up 10 $25,000 In full. Thus,
because he had spread his
orders, Joe received 500, 900
Of new as in 10 blocks for
his down payment of $4,000.
Speedy Profit
Al this writing, the new notes
are quoted AZ above i0094. In
two weeks. Joe has made a
profit OF over $3.50 or 7a4 per
cent on his money.
And this deal is only a fair
one. Last fall. the Treasury
sold an issue of 4 per cent bonds
at 100; the bonds now are
quoted at over ITO. Assuming
Joe followed the same pro-
cedure I've just outlined and
he still owns the 100000 OF As
against his Deposit of $4,000
he has more than doubled his
money in about six months! All
other United States issues sold

You'll not find a lot Of smart
oney spectators in their
usual hauntS these days-sueh
as the markets for stocks, COM
modities, land, real estate.
You'll also find them IN an
area least likely TO attract the
in-and-outers looking for a fast
buck, You'll find them in
The market for new United
States Government securities.
Nimble operators have made
fortunes In this market since
last fall. They are now back
specializing In Cfree ridingD
Government securities on a
scale not seen since the great
war loan drives OF World War
II.
Here's the background:
Savings bonds don't trade in
any market--but savings bonds
are only a small part Of the
massive United States debt.
BY far, the biggest portion
Of the national debt is in mar
ketable securities carrying
various coupons and due at
various dates, These are traded
in the open market just as
other securities are traded.
They go up in price when the
trend of interest rates is down
and vice versa.
Fortunes Made
Since last November, when
the Federal Reserve System
abandoned its tight money
policy and interest rates began
TO slide. Treasury securities
have been in the fastest. most
spectacular price upsurge of all
history. Major financial insti-
buttons. big investors and Sc
curities dealers in this market
literally have made fortunes on
the senatorial rise.
Also since last November,
the treasury has had TO sell
billions OF dollars of new issues
to raise cash. AS is customary
it has offered each new issue
at a price OF par-l00, it has
asked a modest down payment
on subscriptions from other
than banks: it has filled all
small orderS-very small being
Sl0.000-in full. AS each new
issue has been sold, it has
risen sharply.
Now let's trace the opera
