JM Both of these charges will operate to the benefit of Atlanta and the South in general. Government depositories* here have put in application for a share of the S 10.000,000 The money ran be used to advantage in the South. Eastern hanks, on the other hand, are not ho anxious for additional Government funds since they will have to pay 2 per cent interest in future. Many Southern Applications. There are about 900 Government, depositories in the United States. Of these. 800 have made application for th< $10,000,000, and it is surmised, from the facts stated, that ninny of these applicants are In the South. As Atlanta hanks understand the municipal bond restrictions, 30 per cent of the bonds they are required to deposit with the Treasurer may be municipals, at 75 per cent of their value. In other words, a hank hold ing $100,000 Government funds may put up $70,000 In Government 2s, and $40,000 In municipal bonds, yielding 4 1-2 or 5 per cent. By doing this, notwithstanding the payment of 2 per cent interest on de posits, the transaction will yield a small profit in Interest, besides possi ble profits from purchasing munici pal bonds chiefly, during periods of depression like the present, and real ising a profit on their rise in value. Government bonds cost a small pre mium. and never fluctuate in value. Opens Municipal Bond Market, The new ruling opens up a market loi municipal bonds, too, In a quarter which was closed to smeh issues be fore. This does not amount to so much in Atlanta, with $500,000 Government deposits now. and a possible $600,000 when the additional $10,000,000 Is al lotted. but for the nation, it amounts to considerable. Government deposits all over the nation will amount to $53,000,000, which will make a market for $16,480,. O00 in municipal bonds, if the deposi tories care to take advantage of it.
