" MILWAUKEE. Mar. Q (AP).
Ron Delany of Ireland is
running again tonight only 48
hours after breaking his own
world indoor mile record.
He and Istvan Rozsayolgyi of
Hungary. the man who pushed
him to a 4:01.4 clocking at
Madison Square Garden Satur-
day night are on hand and
resting for the Milwaukee
journal Games. Whether they
both can come up with another
such terrific time is question:
able, but the Hungarian has
remarkable recuperative pow
ers, and Delany is not one to
be left behind.
The record Delany broke was
his own two-week-old mark Of
4:02.5, and Rozsavolgyi forced
him to do it. The Hungarian
sprinted past Delany with a lap
and a half to go. and the Irish
star was forced all out to over
take him in the final strides and
win by about four feet.

Is there any advantage in
redeeming old United States
Savings Bonds to buy the new
higher-interest ones?
This question directly affects
40 million Americans who own
$42 billion worth of savings
bonds.
Under a presidential order
issued last month, all savings
bonds sold since June / will
yield 3A per cent interest If
held to maturity. The old rate
was ga per cent.
Just as important, yields on
all bonds sold before June
were increased one-half Of l
per cent.
If you own bonds bought be-
fore June /, you may be won-
dering If it would pay to re-
deem them and use the pro-
ceeds to buy new ones yielding
3A per cent. Actually. there
are relatively few cases in
which this would be profitable
Interest High in Late Years
This is true because interest
rates increase the longer you
hold a bond. The average rate
of 334 per cent is possible only
because rates exceed that level
in the later years, offsetting
low yields in the early years.
Thus any Series E bonds
bought since December, l949.
will between now and maturity
earn interest at rates ranging
from 3.78 to 4.86 per cent, de-
pending on when they were
bought.
Obviously these bonds will
yield more than a brand-new
one, so it would be pointless to
switch. This is even more true
of bonds bought before May,
1912. From now until they next
mature they'll earn between
ATT and 4.86 per cent.
That leaves bonds bought be-
tween May, 1912. and May,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-10-09

to year, however, you'll find
more leeway for profit.
Continuing the process Of
elimination, the most eligible
candidates for switching are
bonds bought between June,
1916, and May, l949. If you're
in the lowest tax bracket, it
might pay you to switch these,
depending on how long you'd
plan to keep the new bond.
In any event, the pros and
cons can be weighed only on
an individual basis, taking into
account taxes and the length
of time a new bond would be
held.
If you find an opportunity for
switching, don't be surprised
If the potential profit is small.
The Treasury planned it that
way so it wouldn't be burdened
with the costly paperwork that
would result from wholesale
switching.
