W. TUFTY . Central Press Correspondent WASHINGTON—Many a goo yarn has been written about what happens in the life of a doliar bill Only a few treasury officials know it, but soon a new chapter will be added to the life story of all Uncle Sam’s bills that grow “old and tired.” No longer will five tons of hon- est-to-goodness money be burned up every day. On Jan. 1, the treasury will adopt’ the revolutic ary policy of converting old money into new paper. This is g0od news to manufacturers of ultra fine sta- tionery, newspaper matrices, and those needing a fiber base in plas- tic making. What a field éey for stationery advertisers who can promise the bride that her wedding invitations will be engraved on paper “worth a million dollars”! This is how it all happened. A certain newspaper mat manufac- turer was wringing his hands in lesperation over the shortage of high grade paper pulp in the mid- lle of a war paper shortage. He would have liked nothing better than to put his hands on the supply that flowed into the treas- ury every day and came out in crisp new currency. Suddenly it dawned on him that 1€ might get some after the treas- iry was through with it. Not the ishes, but if mashed up into a ulp or powder. Search for Machinery Treasury officials were agree- tble. But they needed special nachinery. Their search for ma- hines to destroy tons of money nded in a plant making pulv ng machines used by the mineral, lide and grain industries. Into one of these se pacity grinders will go not only money, but imperfect sheets of stamps and bonds and later, some of that ion curren The residue is a greenish pow casily made into the finest of en-ton ca- | | Only one obstacle was seen, Th.\!} r must not fall into the hands of counterfeiters eager for just thi imd of material.

They travel a long road from the cal bank. Eventually your tattered and torn bills reach one of the 12 federal reserve banks where they are withdrawn from circulatian. How Bills Are Withdrawn This is a careful process with a record made of every individual Lill. Then they are eut jn two, lengthwise.
