YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
Now-Buy Savings Bonds?
DY SYLVIA PORTER

Should you buy and continue
to hold United States Savings
Bonds now that Congress A.
nally has permitted the Treas
ury to raise the interest rate
to 3A instead Of 3A per cent
q year If they are held to
maturity
The key change that has
been made in the savings bond
program Is: the time you must
hold q bond for which you pay
SIS to get back 500 has been
shortened.
II you buy . bond for SIS
today and keep 1t. to Its ma
turity in seven years. nine
months, you get $100-which
works out to an annual rate Of
interest Of 3st per cent. II you
hold it only three years, you
get back S82.64. which works
out to an annual return Of 3.26
per cent. II you hold It six
years. you get back sos %,
which works out to an annual
payment Of 3.67 per cent.
Bonds which you bought in
the past anticipating a return
OF 3A per cent q year, also
win earn n per cent more II
you hold on to them.
Practical Answers
Now to practical answers.
First. let's look at the new
3A per cent rate. Against to-
days interest rate structure
and economic background, this
appears a reasonable annual
return. Over the next eight
years. surely the cost Of living
will not rise at anything like
this annual rate. Barring a
world cataclysm Wen not toll.
crate q runaway imitation.
Moreover. while you must pay
a tax on the interest you earn,
in most instances. the income
tax won't bite much.
In short. q 33z per cent an
nual rate should more than
protect the value Of the dollars
you save via these bonds. You
won't come out spectacularly
ahead. but you should come out
nicely ahead.
Second. the great advantage
OF buying savings bonds under
a payroll savings plan is that
the deductions from your pay
check discipline you into saw
ing small amounts regularly.
The payroll deduction has the
virtue Of protecting you against
yourself.
Third, every family should
have q basic nestegg, consisting
Of cash or its equivalent, and
life insurance. No matter how
intrigued you are by other
forms Of investment, you should
create this nestegg first for your
financial peace Of mind and

Bonds Are Riskless
Fourth. Savings Bonds are
absolutely riskless, q mighty

mittedly, you can earn more
than 3a4 per cent Q year on
other Government securities
today, but these securities

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE

The rise in the Federal Re-

after the market close on
Thursday but the fear Of It
had overhung the market since
September /. On that day COM
mercial banks raised the prime

AZ per cent.
Wall Street dislikes high In

steel strike seemed no nearer

settlement from President Ell

Of the strike were still not pro-

there was growing concern over
the future.
The impending Khrushchev-
