NEW BOND ISSUES FAIL

Low Coupon Rate Blamed for I'm

BY the Associated Press.
( NEW YORK, June with the sx-
ception, Of brief period OF reaction
covering two days. bond prices con-
tinued TO point upward in the trad
ing on the New Yory stock exchange
during the past week.
A small increase in new offerings
was noted, the weeks total being
S45,S89.170. compared with $37278.000
the previous week. An unusual event
OF the week was the failure of four
municipal and state issues to find a
market. IN two instances no bids
were submitted, and in the other the
bids were rejected as too low. The
offerings aggregated about $4,000. .0o0
and were offered by the states of Ala
bama and California and the cities
of Boston and Miami In the case
of Boston the bonds later were sold
at a private sale, according to re-
ports in the financial district.
Bankers attributed failure of invest
ment houses to bid on the two issues
to the low coupon rate attached TO
the bonds.
