Lost, Stolen Bonds
Gan Be Replaced
“Many Alaskans don’t know J
that if their U S. Savings bonds )
are lost, stolen or destroyed, j
the U.S. Treasury will replace
them without charge,” Helen
M. Fischer, Alaska state direc
tor for the treasury’s savings \
uoncts program said recently, j
"Because one in four Alas- j
kans are estimated to own ,
bonds we want to inform them 1
about the indestructible fea- j
tures of their investment in
America,” Mrs. Fischer con
tinued.
“In order to protect bond j
owners, another important
safeguard is the fact that bonds
are not negotiable or transfer
able, which, of course, means
they cannot be used or accepted
as collateral or endorsed over
to another person.
“The U. S. treasury's bureau
of public debt receives an aver- i
age of 260 inquiries a day about ;
replacing bonds which have |
been mutilated or have been
lost, stolen or destroyed. Re
placements are issued without
cost.

One encouraging trend, he
added, was the growing propor
