Abstract
According to previous studies, the demand-liability feature of national bank notes did not present a problem for note-issuing banks because the nonbank public treated notes and other currency as perfect substitutes. However, that view, when combined with nonbindingness of the collateral restriction a against note issue, itself an implication of the fact that not all eligible co collateral was used as collateral, implies that the safe short-term interest rate is pegged at the tax rate on note circulation. Since evidence on short- term interest rates is inconsistent with such a peg, that view must be rejected.
