C, Nov. 9, 1944. 86c MASTER’S SALE w itice is hereby given that in ac- ZDce with the terms and provls- of the decree of the Court of Babeou Park, Mass., Nov. 24.—How can the huge postwar U. a Govern ment debt be senricedT When the total annual expensea of the Oovem. ment under Preeident Coolldge (in cluding Army, Navy. Pensions, Debt piterest^ etc.) were only three bll- liohs, how can we now provide the money to pay Interest alone of six billions? Prewar national income was about sixty biUions. Otv bankers state that Washingion will provide the necessary money to pay Interest on the |300,- 090,000,000 debt by doubling this na- tional income. By increasing prices, uid values, etc., this can perhaps be done, but 1 am not too sure. (Cer tainly, inflation would be a dangerous way out Statisticians believe that ail nations must make 'some readjustments in ,their huge debts after the war. They see no reason why the United Stales— if we want our share of foreign trade —should not do. the same thing. If BO, bow may our debt be readjusted? Some day the banks, together with the railroads, public utilities and cer tain large corporations, may be Uken over by the government. This, how ever, will not happen until the next busiitess depression. One step, how ever, we may expect any time. 'HiIb will be to nationalise the 12 Federal Reserve Banks and thus save the government the interest on bonds held )j theee Reserve banks. The Federal government could also institute a 100 per cent reserve policy and thus* save the government the in terest on all government bonds held by the banks. This is now being ad vocated by the “London Economist.” In fact, Geoffrey Crowther recently urged such a program before the Mandzeeter (England) Statistical So ciety. This could be done, be claims, in a way not to hurt the banks, al though I am not too sure of this. My own present guess is that as the E, F and G’s become due an entire new system of refunding will be in stituted which will both save the goV' emment money and not necessarily mon _Pleag fot-K^Btow County- bnrt anyone.

Larger holders can be given the option: 1. <x wecept- Ing 2 1-2 per cent Registered Fifty Yeer Bonds—two per cent being re- tired by lot at par each year, Jt being understood that the government idzall not buy any in the open market under par; oc. (^ of accepting I'per cent Ck>upon Ten Year Bonds which would have a tree market and have some tax advantage. u- Along wkh aoch refunding, legUla- tlon will be passed by Congress whereby insurance companlee (and this win now be possible under the recent Supreme Court decision) will be allowed to value such 2 1-2 per cent bonds at par, and banks plU be al lowed to value the 1 pm* cent bonds at par, whatever either issue may be selling for in the open market. This program could result in cutting the Federal interest costs about in half and ultimately in retiring the bonds. All of the above means t6at the Federal debt could be divided into two parts—like the departments of every bank—vit: a Sayings Depart ment and a Commercial Department. Those who want income will get 2 1-2 per cent, but they must be willing are called by lot at par. Those who want liquidity must be content with 1 per cent intereri, but they will al ways be able to sell their bonds. This should be no different from the way the banks are now treating us de positors in their two ^bove-mentioned departments. We all should buy our share of War Bonds Sdries E, F and G. During the years ahead they may or may not be our best Investment Only the future can tell, but this one thing is certain: If we will also buy a carefully-selected list of good stocks, then we will have two barrels to our gun. If the bonds go down in price, the stocks should go up, while if the stocks go down, we will have a safe back-log in the bonds. CLYDE CLARK IS VICE PRES.
