SH0RT-TERM DEBT
REFUND|NC IS SEEN
Financial Operation to Cut
Nations Interest Bill Is
Backed by Mills.
~ the Associated Press.


Refunding Of billions of dollars in
outstanding Treasury securities in the
near future appears possible to financial
experts following Secretary Mills state
ment before the House Ways and Means
Committee that such an operation is
desirable.
At the same time the experts regard
1t as almost mandatory that the Gov
ernment fund some of its immense
short-term obligations into long-term
bonds. A refunding operation on the
outstanding S8,201 ,2l3,050 liberty bonds
would give the Government a vehicle
in which to carry along some of its
short-term debt on the same terms.
Largest Sum in History.
The situation at present is that the
Governments short-term obligations
have reached the largest amount in its
history-S5 OBJ 600, ,000-eXcluSive of the
90-day Treasury bills with which Sec
retary Mills has raised needed cash. In
addition there are $6,268, 100000 of
fourth 4l4 per cent liberty loan bonds
which mature in 1888 and are callable
next year and S536OOO,OOO of first Al
liberties now callable
Also there are outstanding $1.392,-
227,850 of first liberties bearing 3l2 pr
cent interest and about S5,002,45O of 4
per cent converted bonds.
Experts term the amount of short
term paper too unwieldy to continue to
be carried on the books even at the
low interest rate now being paid on
late issues.
This was one of the reasons which
caused him to call on Congress for
balanced budget
The success of such an operation"

by a balanced budget"
Financial experts believe any large
refunding issue would have to carry
between and per cent interest, but
they add much depends upon money
market conditions at the time the issue
is offered.
Mills Favors Refunding.
That Secretary Mills, himself, regards
the funding OF the Short-term securities
as desirable was seen in his statement
before the committee last week.
The market believes the funding of
short-term debt into long-term bonds
to be inevitable" he said. The un-
certainty as to the time and terms of
this operation added to the uncertainty
as to when the budget will be balanced
and the Government retire from the
market as borrower of additional
funds. are disturbing and unsettling
factors"
The Secretary expressed the belief
that the funding operation would have
a favorable action upon the whole
credit structure and create one Of the
essentials of business recovery.
Recent sfort-term bonds have sold
for less than 3 per cent and, if the
Government could refund the outstand-
ing Liberty bonds at present easy
money rates. say at a l per cent reduc-
ton in interest, Ii would save approx
mately S8O,0OO,OO0 in interest.
