Second Section Jfmttran GENERAL NEWS SPORTS CLASSIFIED ADS CITY OF KINGSTON, N. THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 20, 1966 SEVENTEEN Business Mirror Bv SAM DAWSON AP Business News Writer NEW YORK (AP) Boasting: the interest rate on U.S. saving's bonds is in part a necessity and in part a drive to raise the federal debt in the form least likely to feed inflation. The U.S. necessity arises from the drop in sales of 1 Kinds in recent weeks and the in redemptions of lionds already held bv the pub-, lie.

In 1965 sales slipped by 2.7 per cent from 1964. But in December sales were 11 per cent below those of a year ago. Competition Tough At an interest rate of per cent. since 1959. the bends compete with returns that the small investor could get from several other forms of savings.

And in recent weeks institutions offering these other forms commercial banks, mutual savings banks, savings faster when you look for needed numbers in the telephone book. To avoid dialing numbers twice, or dialing wrong numbers, please check your phone book first. And if you underline numbers in the phone book or write them on a list, you'll find them faster next time. LOOK IN THE PHONE BOOK-TO BE SURE! New York Telephone and loan associations have been spiritedly competing to lure savings their way by raising still higher the interest or dividend they wall pay. The need to raise the federal debt and to make such an increase as uninflat ion ary as possible is clear.

Even the mast optimistic view of the forthcoming administrative budget is that there will be yet another Treasury deficit. And the more comprehensive cash budget, including income and outgo for such agencies as Social Security and highways, is too iffy this far in advance of the 1967 fiscal year to insure the Treasury against the need to sell more securities to keep its cash till from being empty. Least Inflationary Tinge The security that has the least inflationary t.ingc probably is the savings bond. That is because the Ijuyer uses money he might otherwise be sending for still more goods and services. And he usually puts the bond away, thus keeping the money out of circulation.

He seil the bond to his banker or loan company. but redeem it only through the Treasury. Some other Treasury securities, if sold to banks, are considered inflationary. They are marketable, and often dubbed the next thing to money itself. And the bank pays for them by setting up Treasury deposit accounts.

While these are being drawn down, the bank has a lot of monev on hand it can lend thus swelling the supply of credit. Or it can sell the Treasury securi'tv and use the proceeds to make loans. So the Treasury would like to see as many of its securities as possible in the hands of the individual savers and preferably tucked away for a long stay in strong boxes. Right now' the administration seems particularly anxious to have such money out of circulation. If savings bond redemptions rose too much, the onetime savers might be using the Automated PO Bugs Removed, Others on Way ENLIST IN Marine Corps Recruiting Station here has announced the enlistment of two Kingston youths on Jan.
