TREASURY IS USINGBIG PUBLIC CREDIT

*

Certificates OutstandingAgainst Loans and Taxes,

$2,381,159,500.BY I. A. FLEMING.

The United States government ha*outstanding $2.381,159,500 Treasurycertificates.To this extent has the government

used its credit with the banks and thepublic. With the exception of the currentmonth and the month of Julythere are Treasury certificates maturingevery month for the balance ofthe year. Of the total amount about$506,000,000 were Issued In anticipationof income tax payments and matureMarch 15.

April 15 $118,660,000 mature. May16, $232,124,000 will become due; June15 the second installment of taxes willbe due and $430,600,000 tax certificatesmature; September 15, anothertax issue of $341,994,500 will be payableand $401,557,000 tax certificatesmature December 15. In additionthere are two loan Issues of $349,000,-uuu mat win be due August 16 andOctober 15.On the face of the situation it looks

very much as if financing of the needsof the government through themedium of the Treasury certificateissues would be continued for a longtime to come; furthermore the refundingof maturing victory notes appearsto be more or less of a necessity.Bankers do not believe that thegovernment will be called upon tomeet the high rate on certificatesagain; indeed; some believe that the6 per cent rate may top the recordsfor government borrowing for yearsto come. These certificates are nowselling at a slight premium.

Loral .Securities.Trading was more diversified on

today's session of the local stock exchange,while the sale of $100,000Washington Railway 4s at 58%, inlots, helped out the volume of business.The price of the 4s is oft alittle from the last previous sale.Continental Trust shares sold sparinglyat 107, 106 and 105 and closed

with 106 asked.Small sales of Lanston were made

at 74% and 74% and of Mergenthalerat 121.Potomac Consolidated 5s brought80%, Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone5s, 90, and Metropolitan Kailroad5s, 92. ,

No Wage Cuts Considered.From Judge Gary, chairman of theboard of the Cnited States Steel Corporation,comes the assurance that no

wage cuts have even been considered,nor has there been any plan madelooking to a reduction in the pricesof products of the big corporation.Judge Gary declared that he consideredthe sales of German fabricatedsteel in this market unimportant, althoughadmitting that Germany wasmaking great industrial progress.

Assists Washington Chapter.At the last annual convention ofthe District Bankers' Association tho

question of giving generous supportto Washington Chapter, A. L B., wasadvocated and very generally agreedupon by the majority of the delegates.

It is admitted that the graduatesof the chapter are especially qualifiedfor banking positions, and thelarge number of junior ofilcials oflocal banks who are graduates of thechapter is further evidence of thefact.The Washington Clearing House

Association, composed of the nationalbanks of the city, has agreed to meetany contribution to the chapter madeby the Bankers' Association, up to$500.

Gas Oil Advances.Gasoline and crude oil are reportedcheaper by the edict of the Standard

Oil Company, but gas oil has recentlyadvanced from 7 to 12 1-4 cents a gallon.An increase of 5 1-4 cents on agallon of gas oil will, according to authorities,add about 23 cents to thecost of 1,000 cubic feet of gas, as approximately4 1-4 gallcns of oil are requiredin the production. Gas companiesmay be expected to seek higherrates before long, unless there is adecline In oil.

Rush to Finanre Corporation.The War Finance Corporation is beingurged to make loans to finance exportsto practically every country on

the globe, save Russia. Germany is inthe market for flour, grain, cottonand cotton waste, and, althoughtechnically still at war with her, weare shipping millions of dollars' worthof goods there. Bulgaria wants automobiles;Rumania, farm tractors, foodstuffsand cotton; China, locomotivesand tobacco, and so it runs through thegamut of production.

A Safeguard.The Treasury Department has grantedBaltimore bankers the right to

stamp owner's name or the AmericanBankers' Association nnmber of thecashing banks on all coupons fromliberty bonds. In this way it will beeasier to trace lost and stolen couponaThe Baltimore Clearing House pressedthe matter to a favorable conclusion.Washington might follow in the

laudable proposition.

RESIGNATIONS FROM ARMY.The President has accepted the resignationsof Capt. Bradford Massey,

Medical Corps, of Philadelphia; Capt.Harry b7 Forbes. Medical Corps, ofOgden, Utah; First Lieut. FrederickDamrau, Medical Corps, of Brooklyn,N. Y.; Second Lieut. Shelby N. Griffith.Chemical Warfare Service, and SecondLieut. Cecil E. Inman, Infantry, ofJackson, Miss.

AMENDS RETIREMENT ACT.An amendment to the civil service

retirement act to extend its provisionsto cover all persons who werein the government' service on September30, 1919. was introduced bySenator McKellar of Tennessee, yesterday.Employes in the classifiedcivil service who resigned or otherwiseleft the government pay rollsBince September 30, 1919, would receivethe benefits of the retirementlaw if the amendment is adopted.Many of these former employes, it issaid, have been in the governmentservice for years.
