THURSDAY, OCT. 17th, 1946 Federation President Urges Fanners te Buy Canada Savlngs Bonds Advance inquiries at branches of chartered banks, investment dealers and brokerage houses about purchases of Canada Sav- ings Bonds first offered for sale on October 15 indicate a solid de- * sje by Canadians to continue wartime Victory Loan and War Savings Stamps saving habits, Ca- nada Savings Bonds national headquarters reported today. Sales of war savings stamps and certificates have 'been termi- inated and final instalments on Ninth Victory Loan purchases will have been completed by the end of the month. The Canada. Savings Bonds, which bear 2.75 per cent interest and can be cash- ed at any time at face value, of- fer a means of continuing the sav- ings habit. Just returned froni the Food and Agriculture Organization conference in Copenhagen, H. H. Hannam, president and manag- ing director of the Canadian Fed- eration of Agriculture, has writ- ten in a letter on Canada Savings Bonds addressed to Graham F Towers, Governor of the Bank of Canada: "During the war the Canadian people came to have great confi- dence in this type of investment, because of its bedrock security. Generally speaking, they will wel- come the government's decision to continue to offer this form of security, one in which the ordin- ary citizen can readily partici- pate.pp "A feature of the new offering," said Mr. Hannam, "which will commend itself to farmers is the fact that the savings bond will be readily convertible into cash at 100 per cent of its value plus in- terest. Farmers who are in a pos- ition to put by a portion of their earnings each year should find the new bonds a very satisfac- tory form of investment for these savings." It was pointed out that, since there are fewer salesmen than in Victory Loan campaigns the in- itiative for the purchase of Can- ada Savings Bonds rests with in- dividual Canadians. Facilities of chartered banks, investment and brokerage houses have been made available for bond purcilases. It may only take a minute to change a lifetime.
