During this period of stress our Government needs our help and counts upon our patriotism. But a chance is given investors of placing their money in securities of the highest grade, upon terms the liberality of which will, perhaps, not be fatty realized until the return of normal times. If this Loan were issued to yield 4l,%, instead of about 5.35 %, the price would be 105.41, instead of 97.50. A 4% yield (the basis on which Dominion Government bonds sold so recently as 1914) would mean a price of 111 for the present issue.
