...already been materially reduced since the peak of such borrowings, reached at the end of 1920." The loan was issued in the form of 25-year sinking fund gold bonds. The price of issue was 94; interest at the rate of 7% on the par value, making a net return of 7.53%. The operation of the sinking fund, however, makes the interest much larger.
