Mr. George Blanton, Jr. aaid that due to the heavy demand tor the new bond which is anticipat ed. many banks and other Issuing agents throughout the Nation will accept orders before May 1 from those purchasers who may desire an early date of issue to appear in the validating stamp. Decision to if sue the $75 bond, nomination range of Savings which fills a gap In the lower-de Bonds, was announced by the White House late in January. The issue date of May 1 was fixed to coincide with the launching of “Operation Security”, a nation wide Savings Bonds campaign which runs until July Fourth. May 1 is also the 23rd anniver sary of the issuance of the first Series E Bond. Purchase price of the new bond, which will reach full redemption value in seven years and nine months, is $95.25. Mr. Blanton said thsl the new ■jond is not a “memorial’ to the | late President, in that is is no dif ferent from other denominations of Savings Bonds, all of which bear portraits of diseased chief executives. However, beneath the mi-trait of Mr. Kennedy are car ried the words from his inaugu ral address: "Ask not what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country " “The reproduction of this mem orable statement on the face of the bond." said Mr. Blanton, “is •» fresh reminder that our citizens help strengthen their own securi id. consequently, the security of their community and the country when they invest a |>or tion of their savings in Savings Bonds rho slang expression, “limey". often aoo|t«-d to <—*•— originated in the time of Captain Janies Cook, the famous Britisn explorer.

Aererding to the Book of Knowledge, the breed's name comes from its ability to attain great speed on distances up to a quarter of a mile. Its short bursts of spied make the Quarter Horst’ ideal for uses in cutting out. or separating, a steer from its herd.
