Irpnton, I.ehlgh ami New Ihigland, Bangor and Portland. Financing Methods of financing do not effect value, they effect price. Here Is one method fre quently adopted, Funds are needed. An issue of bonds or stock is .au thorized of a par value in excess of requirements. This issue is offered to a chosen few at a price less than par, but high enough to produce the sum required. They in turn offer parts of the issue to others at further profit which the public ulti mately pays. At last the public gets its chance to pay the interven. ing profits for a security on which a higher rate of in terest or dividend is paid at the source than the ulti mate owner receives.
