u. 5. Bond Declines
Greatest Since 81;
Corporates Follow
By Arthur Merims
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, May 2.-Uniteo
States Government bonds suf-
fered their greatest price declines
this week since the Federal Re-
serve stopped supporting theil
par value level in March. 1851
High-grade corporate bonds also
lost ground.
Nearly the entire Government
bond list slipped to record depths
with losses as much as a full
point. Since Federal obligations
are considered the most secure
debt certificates in existence, a
point decline is extremely rare
within a five-day period.
The losses followed announce
ments Monday in leading cities
throughout the country raising
the prime" loan rate of COM
mercial banks to 3A per cent
from 3 per cent. This is the
highest minimum interest charge
in the banking system since
1884. It's only part of a gen.
eral spiraling of interest rates
though a basic part to be sure
Sharp Drop Noted.
The Governments new long
term 3H per cent bond dropped
as low as SO 24/32 bid at one
time, though it finished the
week with a quarter point net
loss at SO 1882. Of 1882 were
Victory loan gas at 80 4/32 bid
and bank-eligible 212s of 1867
70 at 80 2/32 bid. Both were at
record interest yields above
per cent.
The decline below the selling
price of the Governments new
bond must embarrass the Treas
ury, to say the least. Especially
coming so soon after it was
heavily oversubscribed. Many
Wall Streeters wondered why the
Nations bankers raised their
loan rates so quickly and to the
same level as the Governments
new bond.
COrpOrates Also Slip.
With the 3l4s selling below
par. the Treasury can no longer
expect holders of more than ST
billion of maturing series "F''
and &c" savings bond to ex-
change for the new issue.
Corporate bonds are also slip
ping as a result of this upward
movement in interest rates. The
Associated Press averages of
railroad. utility and industrial
bonds all finished the week at
new 1853 lows. Such high-grade
issues as Westinghouse Electric
23sS at 80, Philadelphia Electric
234s of 1874 at 90. and Western
Union 424s at IS were brushing
new depths.
Foreign liens were fairly
steady. Japanese and Italian
bonds were narrowly mixed.

Transportation For Students

! The transportation for Alas kan High School students go- ing to the University of Alaska will be provided by the ! University, President Moore announced this week.
 Beginning next September, every Alaskan High School graduate will be entitled to this benefit,
 In recent years the Alaska Steamship Company and the Alaska Railroad have made a round trip ticket available for the price of one way to U. of A. students.

After the student has been at the university for at least up to Christmas he is entitled to go to the Registar and get his original receipt stamped by that office. This is then presented to the rail or steamship company who honor 1t for a return passage.
 The new plan will work ex- actly the same except that in addition the student will be entitled to take his receipt into the Comptroller's office and receive credit at the end of the year against payment of April and May bills due the university.
