Treasury Refunds
More Than 6 Billion
|0f National Debt
By the Asseeiossd Press

Secretary of the Treasury Snyder
has announced refunding OF S.
| 735. 900 900 of the National debt. Of
fering most of the new Government
obligations at lower interest rates
than those maturing.
A new offering of per cent short
term notes will save the Treasury
SIT 100000 in interest payments and
is expected to disappoint investment
interests which had hoped for a
slight increase in interest rates.
However, MIR. Snyder also an
nounced last night that the Treas
ury will offer late in September an
tissue of 21a per cent bonds, dated
October l, the first since 1945. He
did not disclose the amount of the
issue.
Only for Institutions.
This answer to a wide demand for
long term securities will be pur-
ehaseable only by institutions hold
ing savings. insurance and pension
funds-that is. saving< banks, saw
ings and loan firms, insurance COM
panies and the like-and by COM
mercial banks which have savings
deposits. The bonds may not be
traded in the market.
BY so limiting the sale, Treasury
aides said, the Government will
prevent the bonds from being added
To the reserves of commercial banks
which may use them to make ad-
ditional loans, with inflationary ef-
feet.
The other offerings are:
On August 20, a 10-month issue
of certificates bearing q per cent
interest. in exchange for $2,341,-
000, 900 in present certificates which
expire September l, carrying the
same interest.
121a Month Issue Planned.
Early in September, an issue OF
1914 month notes at l per cent in
terest in exchange for the ~ per
cent Treasury notes falling due
September Is amounting to $1,687,-
600, 900, and for 11a per cent issue
of $2,707 100000 maturing on the
same date
The brief statement closed with
announcement that the Treasury
will continue to issue United States
savings bonds, paying 90 per cent
interest on amounts up to $3.50 a
year. and 212 per cent interest on
additional investments up to $780,
600 a year.
