Federal Reserve Board
Plans Method For
Floating War Bonds
Washington. April 30.—The Federal
Reserve Board has recommended to
Secretary McAdoo that funds to be!
raised under the $7,000,000,000 war
finance law he obtained gradually by i
offering to the banks of the country j
blocks of treasury certificates to be
retired later with bonds every two)
weeks. |
Under this plan a bank whose de
positors subscribe to the bonds would
not have to forward cash but could
forward certificates thus strengthen
ing: its financial position and avoid
ing the risk of disturbance in the
money market by large withdrawal
of moneys in payment for bonds.
