% ? GOV. SELLS SECURITIES Equipment Trust Certificates Disposed of With President's Approval "Washington, I). C.?Sales at par and accrued interest of ?7,500,000 par value of railroad equipment trust certificates held by the government, with the approval of President Harding, was announced by Director Cicneral of Railroads Davis. The certificates were bought nv Kuhn, Loeb and Co., of New York, xl 1_ -1 tti n- ' mrougn me war finance -ttion, which handler the sale for the railroad administration. The equipment trust certificates, the corporation said, benv su,eie>'. a., 4> per cent per annum and mature serially from 1928 to 192:"), inclusive. The securities sold were in equal amounts of $1,500,000 of the following railroads: Atchison, Topeka and Santa Pe; Chicago, Burlington and Quincy; Norfolk and Western; Central Railroad Company of New Jersey and Southern Pacific Company. Plans to Sell More. Sale of these certificates, it was explained at the treasury, was the first of a series, as the administration is planning to market blocks of as many of the $380,000,000 wortn of car trust securities held by tho government as cai. b?- .Ilsnosed of at par. Funds realized from these transactions, it was said, would be turned over to the railroad administration for the benefit of the railr >ads. This m?thod of raising the money for railroad reJief, high treasurv offi cials declared, would lesson the amount the War Financc Corporation ,would bo called upon to supply. IT congress passes the railroad funding bill. by a sum eouival?nt to th.it received from sales of car trust certificates. and at the same time would permit the settlement of railroad claims to continue pending congressional action. All sales, it was emphasized, "would be without any form of government guarantee of liability, the government regarding itself ns no* a party to the transactions beyond making the actual transfers. Early settlement of railroad claims in tbo oninion of" treasury officials, should be expected to react favorably on the unemployment and business situation throughout the country, it being asserted that the roads could do more business and employ more men. I)T ULiiAlUl-VU JL JL IT ASHIP AGENTS Parents Admitted'and Children1 Sent Back in Some In stances, Says Report New York.?Hardships worked by i the new restrictive immigration laws apparently are the fault of dishonest steamship agents, declared President Harding in a letter to Representative Siegel of New York, made public here. Mr. Siegel who is a- member of th< House committee on immigration, and naturalization recently wrote the President seeking executive int vvv.tion in enforcemnt of immigration laws?an enforcement which the representative declared was resulting in parents being admitted and their children sent back because they happened to arrive after the count'. '' . admittance quota had been filled. In his reply Mr. Harding said: "I haven't any doubt in the world hut the enforcement of the inr- ' " tion laws is working many a hardship. My own distress has been very great over some of the specifie instances which have been reported to me. "1 ] 1 have the situation correctly presented, the difficulty must be charged to the dishonest steamship agents who have brought to this rmintrv innocent immigrants in spite of our continued warnings during a period of very great leniency. I know how vory persistent have been the impositions which have been made on the government agents who havo been disposed to he sympathetic and more than generous in carrying out the law." o MORTGAGEE SALE.

For the benefit of the people of the United States the Treasury Department makes all Government Savings Securities, ranging in denomination from 25 cents to $1000, available to the public at or through any post ollice.

I nil?III I II 1111 II !! ! j FRENCH THRIFT France is making a wonderful recovery. Out of 1,400 miles of railway destroyed in the war, more than 90 per cent have already been replaced. Of the 550.000 houses destroyed, some 160.000 have been renlaned or repaired. More than one-half of the 1,986 fac tories destroyed are now re-established and producing. In every line of activity the French nave demonstrated wonderful recuperative powers. What is the reason? There is no question as to the answer: it is thrift?not only thrift itsel but the 'HABIT of thrift which is an immeasurably bigger thing. France belongs to its people. In a population of 40.000.000 some 12,000,000 are householders of whom 9,000,000 own their own homes. Nearly one-hall the area of France is under cultivation and there are few landhogft.
