The bonds do not draw interest. Instead, they re sold at a discount of 25 percent in order to avoid he cxpense of paying out interest money in small ums, the interest being provided for by the rise in value of the bonds toward par as they approach women have This is a significant maturity., Thus, although the maturity value of the bonds sold to date was reported at more than $2,000,- )00,000, the actual money that has been invested in them and received by the Government is closer to $1,500,000,000. Even this is a sizable sum. It represents more i $1,000 on an average saved in less than four vears by each of the 1,400,000 investors. Such a volume of saving by such a number of our citizens is evidence that large numbers of our people still hold to the ancient, virtue of thrift While the Government has been selling these bonds, the PFederal debt has risen by about $10,000,.- 000,000. The $1.500,000,000 contributed by the “baby bonds” has thus been of considerable importance in the financing of the Government deficit. Although this may seem an casy source of funds to tap, the eventual consequences may be different. One of the outstanding arguments for broadening the income tax is to give a larger part of the people a direct to serve as a check bas financial stake in the Government on unwise or excessive expenditures. Much the same result may be accomplished ‘in the end by the sale of tk bonds. All who buy them have an interest in »ing that they receive back full value at maturity, and to that extent will be unsympathetic to measures |that might jeopardize the Government’s solvency. Baby bonds” may thus turn out to be not only a ready source of revenue but an important force for sound Government practices and policies. Bureaucracy in Business (Philadelphia Record) ngressman Bruce Barton made an address the day before the Insurance Advertising Confer- in which he voiced a familiar complaint against New Deal “The trouble with the present Administration,” he said, “is that it is trying to save the profit system without having in its ranks any men who ever made \ profit or know how and why profits are, made.” The complaint does not happen to be true. There ty of successful business men in the Adminis- ration, from the President himself down. Even those nfants terrible, Messrs. Corcoran and Cohen, were c >ther nee the successful not only in making but in keeping profits in businessmen did.. the 1929 bull market.

To those the Lima meeting may seem to be ending in failure But to our way of thinking it is something to be thankful for that, in the course of three weeks of debate, disag ment and compromise, the delegates managed to adopt 110 resolutions by unanimous vote. We don't believe any other twenty-cne nations on the globe could do as well True, mest of the resolutions were not of the spectacular stuff that makes front page news. They dealth with such ideals and principles as freedom of expression and women’s rights and such common- place matters of cooperation as promotion of inter- national trade, preservation of wildlife and inter- | American copyrights But as Serator Borah has said, the solidarity declaration was Secretary Hull acceptance of t p in that direction. And surely patient negotiations and his final Argentihe position cannot fail to have good effect proving that the United States is willing to “travel with” her sister republics. At least the del s leaving Lima are not carry- ing back to the sective homes animosities that threaten future disturbance of peace on our continent. That fact alone. in our opinion, makes the concord of Lima something far erior to the pact of Munich.
