Pinched mortagors delay by a few days their payment to the bank.

Borrowers on installment loans sometimes overlook a monthly The slowdown doesn't involve individuals only. Businessmen will tell you that when their customers are slow to pay there is a tendency on their part to be slow payers also. Even Uncle Sam has been known to play the To varying degrees this beEa game. havior is tolerated before a reminder is dispatched, which may then escalate into the demand, the threat and eventually to action should the not be forthcoming. The process might be drawn out for months as each side tests the other.

But, says the Management Letter, of Prentice-Hall, the tedious process of collection might be mwittingly drawn out by the dinner himself. "It's enough When pay? ments are slow coming in," the' letter comments, "but it's even worse when your own efforts actually slow them down further." After surveying collection letter procedures the editors proved tnat nobody is perfect. Said they: "Long, dull and wordy collections letters have the effert of slowing down payments." These are some. of the commonest redundancies found in the survey: According to our records," instead of "We find." an early date," when "Right away" would do. the amount of" rather the event that" instead of "If." is our opinion that" for "We believe." a balance i instead of the attention of the writer" rather than "'To me." date instead of the -On." our decision" when "Decided" would suffice.

Since a downturn in the economores a very real possibility, you will be receiving collection letters in coming months, taxing your ability to come up with new and effective techniques for delaying further. Here, therefore, is an effective new technique. You can edit the collection letter and return it with your comments, asking that the writer be less wordy and blaming him for the delay in payment.

What are the minimums on purchases? In what form are the securities issued? A large number of you have. written or phoned to ask questions such as this since my column last week giving you a guide to what you can earn and where on savings today.

For in that column I emphasized the juicy interest. rates now available in the open market on U.S. Treasury and Federal Agency issues. (The reason the ceilings on what financial institutions can pay on your savings have been lifted or eliminated is to discourage you from withdrawing your funds from the institutions to reinvest in the market. But this threat of disintermediation" is no reason for me to hide the facts from you.) So, here are answers to your questions.

Just what are Federal Agency issues? They are securities issued by federal agencies created over the years and operating under federal charter and supervision. Among federal agencies of which you probably have heard are the Federal Home Loan Banks, the Federal National Mortgage (Fannie Mae), the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), the Export Import Bank (Ex-Im). This is just a sampling, and new agencies are still being created from time to time. What are the minimums on purchases and what are the maturities of the Agency issues? A $10,000 minimum was set on purchases of Federal Agency issues in 1970 to eliminate the small "nuisance" subscriber, but a $5,000 denomination is still fairly typical, and on Federal Land Bank issues the minimum is $1,000. Maturities of Agency issues generally run from a few months to over 15 years.

How do you find out the rates on Federal Agency issues? Check your daily newspaper for the bid and ask quotes or call your broker or the bank with which you are dealing. The quotations and yields change from day to day. How do you subscribe to new Agency issues? Each of the Federal Agencies has a fiscal agent in New York City which puts together a nationwide selling group when it has a new issue to sell. In the group will be securities dealers, brokerage houses and dealer banks and the sale will be publicly announced in the news- Deaths MRS. WILLIAM PHILLIPS Mrs.

Ryan Mt Inv. Wts. Venue Status Is Questioned In Investigation Of Public Defender Further action remains pending in a case alleedly involving attorney John Hosmer, public defender of the 30th Judicial Circuit, Asst. Atty. Gen.

Mike O'Neal indicated today. O'Neal, who was in Springfield on other business involving a Ripley County murder case moved here on a change of venue, said Webster County Prosecutor Bill Sims had asked his office about checking Jefferson City records and that he had told Sims he would be glad to assist. However, O'Neal said the attorney general's office couldn't enter the case on its own at this time and that it would have to be Sims who asks the state courts administrator for authority to see the records. There also is a question of venue, since the records are and checks made in Jefferson City, O'Neal noted. The problem involves an affidavit of a young Springfield woman, who alleges that she never worked for Hosmer as public defender except for "three hours" but that she was turned in as his secretary for three months and received and cashed three checks, each for about $185, from the state.

Hosmer was named to the new public defender's post in January, and the young woman, Kathy Green, now employed at the Quest Lounge, Kearney and Glenstone, said she had worked as Homer's secretary prior to January, but that she was never paid all he owed her for her work.

Each of the firms which is a member of the selling group will accept subscriptions from investors on the established terms and, assuming your order is accepted, you will pay no commission on your purchase. You will pay a clearing fee or service charge, however, and this will cut your net return.

You must check these details as well as the minimums on purchases with a broker or banker or dealer who knows you and will give you a fair deal. You also can bet information from Federal Agency Fiscal Agents at this address: One Chase Manhattan Plaza, New York City 10005. How do you buy outstanding Federal Agency issues? The same way you buy other fixed income securities trading in the open market: through a broker or banker with whom you have an established relationship, If you buy in the open market, you'll pay the offering price and the prevailing commission. In what form are Federal Agency securities issued? Generally in bearer form. You have to assume the responsibility of safeguarding them, collecting interest when it is due and redeeming them at maturity.

Why do Agency issues return more than Treasury issues? Because, although they involve federal government guarantees or sponsorship, they are not direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury itself. As a general rule, at any given time, the yield on an Agency issue will be above the yield on a Treasury issue of similar maturity.
