term direct obligations of the United States of America, having
maturities not in excess of five years from the date of the

prior redemption, or may be used to purchase bonds on the open
market at not exceeding the market value thereof. All bonds 30
paid, redeemed or purchased shall be cancelled and shall not be
reissued. Nothing herein shall be construed, however, as impairing
the right of the City to pay, in accordance with the provisions
thereof, any junior lien obligations hereafter legally issued
by it.

this ordinance makes provision shall be secured in the manner
