BUNCOMBE'S BOND PLANS MAY BRING FURTHER REQUESTS (Continued from rage One.) •d this authority long ago, but sundry counties were asking for the same sort of relief and contending that they were just as badly off as Buncombe The local government commission never was able to see it that V*y. I No county in the State had the kind or the extent of Buncombe’s financial difficulties. The difficulties took all sorts of ramifications. The bond-holders who took the Bun combe paper have agreed to the rate and are accepting their losses even as the people who paid the bonds. When the money lenders let the county have the loans money was abounding and the general rate of lending was low. In time the distress of the county be came apparent and lending was at a higher rate. To get concessions which will mean reduction of the debt ser vice by 50 per cent in many cases, will be an enormous gain for the peo ple. Should there be a general request for such reductions in rate of interest to be paid bondholders, of course there must be an agreement on the part of the leaders, but there is a great deal of sentiment in the State for just root) liberality. The State owes about 1180,000,000 in bonded debts and in short time notes. Much of the term notes was negotiated at a very low rate of in terest, but the bankers in New York are now letting the State have it at six per cent. There are millions which were taken at less than 83.00 on the SIOO. The State borrowed at times as low as $2.50 a hundred and for years could be sold anywhere for $4. The paying power of the State and all its subdivisions has been cut tremendous ly. But the New York rate for short paper is still $6. That is an unconscion able rate for the State to pay in its present condition. Prominent lawyers are making sug gestions that North Carolina, instead . of cutting salaries and appropriations below the present descending scale, should ask the lenders if they will not, in view of the greatly changed conditions, allow the State, to pay its debt service at a reduced rate. This debt service Is causing the State's distress. The money loaned years ago bought little in and brought little in interest. The opinion is pretty rampant n Nor* Carolna that the bg bond-holders ought to give the state the advantage of a sliding rate of interest just as those lenders have such flexibility in what they lend to the public. Buncombe has gained Its point Many other counties will try and it is learned on good authority here that some of the bond-holders ere willing Ho ehlp the &tate and the counties by reducing the rate.
