JUNE FISCAL OPERATIONS OF TREASURY REDUCE
INTEREST CHARGES OF NATION BY BIG AMOUNT
Washington. June 23.— (A. P. >—
1 The June fiscal operations of the
treasury, while ranking among the
smallest of post-war financial issues,
will have a wider permanent effect
in the way of cuts in fixed expendi
tures of the government than most
of the quarterly operations in the
last five years. Treasury experts
have calculated that a saving of ap
proximately $22,000,000 In annual
interest charges will result from the
change in the public debt situation
accomplished in June.
About $150,000,000 in new securi-
Itfes have gone on the market from
the treasury this month, but pro-
1 reeds from these with balances on
hand and payments in the second
tax installment will retire something
like $445.000,000 in treasury notes
and tax certificates which matured
June 15. The tax certificates bore
four per cent and the treasury notes,
which were issued in 1921, carried
I-
5 44 per cent Interest. The new cer
tificates pay only 2 34 per cent In
terest. the lowest rate of any govern
ment security since the issue of Pan
ama Canal bonds. At the same time
the British government made a pay
ment of $60,000,000 which, under
the law. must be used to retire the
American war-time debt. That pay
ment therefore will cut off $69.000,-
000 of liberty bonds bearing an aver
age of almost four per cent interest.
While the cut in the total debt
brought about by this one operation
appears as a drop in the bucket
when considered alongside the na
tional debt of more than $21.000,-
000,000, treasury officials point 'with
satisfaction to the amount of inter
est that would have to be paid, and
that means taxes to be raised, pro
vided there was no reduction in the
debt. The treasury has issued only
$150,000,000 in new securities while
It has retired and destroyed a total
of $521,000,000 In outstanding debt.
