president of the National Bank of Commerce and regional chairman of the War inance Committee "If the Treasury Department conceived the opinion that making it to cash war bonds would deter certain holders from doing so the Treasury psy chology was all wrong" said Mr Alfriend has not only all wrong but it has resulted in an outrage for it is outrageous for those holders of war bonds to cash them in when money is needed to carry on the war and the best of our young men Norfolk young men are giv ing tneir Jives for such is outrageous to bond holders forming a to cash their war bonds forming another line at est ABC store say it is wrong to cash a war bond if a person actually is in need of money if an emer gency exists but I say it is wrong to cash a war bond merely for spending money while Norfolk boys are being killed In Europe the South Seas or dying of wounds in far off places a su Department should know that to many it is a case of easy money easy come easy go and that when easy money is put into a war bond no time will be lost in cashing it is the use of holding war loan campaigns and selling indivi dual bonds if they are to be turn ed into cash at the first opportu nity? is neither sound judgment nor good sense for it is nothing more than the government selling checks made out to bearer to sell war bonds that can be rendered into cash at the nearest bank turn over was bad enough when such holders of war bonds had to wait for the ederal Re serve Bank to act Now that war bonds can be cashed readily the rush to do so is not only a reflec tion on the intelligence that laid down the rule but a sad commen tary on the patriotisim of those that prefer the cash here and now instead of waiting until the war is won have been forbidden by those in authority in Washington to give out any information in re gard to the number of bonds that have been cashed and are being cashed say it should bo given ihe widest publicity It should known near and
