Here’s what the new 3 3 /4% interest rate
on US. Savings Bonds means to you:
*3**4
fourteen months faster than before
The Bonds you own are better than ever, too
The new 3%% rate means your savings grow faster
than before with U.S. Savings Bonds. $3 becomes $4,
or $3,000 becomes $4,000 in just seven years, nine
months. This applies to all Series E Bonds bought
since June 1, 1959.
Then, all older Bonds, both Series E and H, pay-
more now—an extra V2 % from June 1 on, when held
to maturity.
And, all Series E Bonds carry a new 10-year ex
tension privilege. This means your Bonds will keep
earning liberal interest automatically after maturity.
These three new cash benefits make today’s U.S.
Savings Bonds the finest in history. They make the
ones you own now better, too.
More advantages of U.S. Savings Bonds
You can save automatically. Just tell your company
how much to deduct every payday for Bonds, and
your Bonds will be delivered to you. This way you
can’t forget to save. And, remember, the money you
don’t touch can’t slip through your fingers.
You can get your money, with interest, when you need
it. Your Bonds are a ready reserve to use anytime
you wish. But, it pays well to hold them.
Your savings can't be lost or stolen. The U.S. Govern
ment guarantees to replace your Bonds, free, if any
thing ever happens to them.
You save more than money. The Bonds you buy help
keep the peace because peace costs money. Money
for better education, new scientific research, greater
military strength. And the money you save helps
strengthen our nation’s economy which depends on
the financial strength of individuals to keep it sound.
Start saving with U. S. Savings .Bonds today.
You’ll save more than money.
You save more than money
