WASHINGTON Wi When Sec-,

explaining our China policy to a
senate committee cmrlng the Mac

Wiley of Wisconsin had a com

Dublican on the Senate Foreign

the key congressional lobs on for

Wiley said: ,'..". .
Mr. Secretary, I think that you
should be complimented on a pret
ty; clear-cut statement as to the
facts, that heretofore were not
brought to our attention in lelation
to) this Chinese situation. . ."
McGeorge Bundy, editor of a
book on Acheson published Mon
day "The Pattern oi Responsibil.

dryly in a footnote:

The people he borrows the mon

the Treasury to Issue long-term

Interest rate of 2 2 per cent.
But the federal debt now tops
259 billion dollars. Annual Interest
payment totals on it are already
high. And any raise in interest
rates would increase the burden on
the taxpayers by that mucn more.
The Treasury, therefore. Is hoping
to . hold the Interest rate at Its
present level, -
Private borrowers aren't so
lucky. Banks now charge 3 per cent

Corporate : bond prices have
dropped, too, so that the yield on
them is rising gradually. And cor
porations seeking to sell new se

offer higher interest rates than
' they did a few years ago. Business
lirnis are borrowing record
amounts to expand plants and fi
nance ever-costlier business opera
tions. Too, many Investors have been
turning to the stock market. With
common stock prices rising since
the war, the yield fronn them has
been more attractive to many in
vestors than the Interest rates the
government or corporations were
offering on -their securities.
But the Treasury has so far held
(o .it.i policy of keeping Us own in

down to 2 I i per cent. To do this,
the "Treasury has been turning
