It is believed by the Treasury Department that no hank or trust company which is a depositary uf the pro ceeds of Liberty I'oiids or Treasury certificates of indebt edness will make a charge for collecting the coupons, pay ing cash to the holder. The service rendered by banking institutions in cashing these inteorst coupons is a sub stantial one, but it. is hoped that those depositaries will perform the service without charge as ;i patriotic duty. 1 1 TI1H i:OXIS OX STOCK KXt'llANOL The daily (plot it ions of Liberty Loan Homls on the N'ew York Stock Kxch.-inge below p,-n- do not repr.-se iiiy real loss for tl:o:-.e holders of Liberty Loan Iionds wli do not need to sell them.
