Treasury Revamps
Savings Bond Plan,
Raising Interest
WASHINGTON, (JP) — The
Treasury Tuesday revamped its
entire multi-billion-dollar savings
bond program, raising interest
rates all along the line.
Sales of two of the current
series of savings bonds—F and G
bonds—will be discontinued effec
tive Thursday. Three new types
of bonds will be offered.
The familiar series “E” defense
bonds—the type held by most in
dividuals—will be continued.
But interest rates for the full
period of the bond will be raised
from 2.9 per cent to 3 per cent.
Secretary of the Treasury Sny
der said the many changes are
designed to improve the bond pro
gram “in keeping with the times”
The biggest innovation will be
issuance of an 4W* bond to be
sold, like the “E” bond, only to
individuals.
The “H” bond will pay off in
checks to be delivered to the bond
i holder twice a year. It will be
sold at par—and will mature at
par—and the smallest denomina
tion will be a $500 bond.

Senate Cuts Billion Dollars
Off Foreign Aid Measure
WASHINGTON, (JP)—A Senate
committee 'has whacked an even
billion dollars off the $7,900,000,
000 foreign aid bill and a Repub
lioan leader predicted Tuesday a
strong floor move would be made
almost to double this cut.
The Foreign Relations group
voted 9-3 late Monday to reduce
-the bill to $6,900,000,000. Sen.
Bridges (R-NH), the minority
leader, told a reporter a floor ef
fort would be made to trim fur
ther to six billion dollars. He said
the move would win wide support
but he did not predict certain
victory.
The bill authorizes extension of
the Mutual Security Program for
fiscal 1952 starting July 1. It
carries allotments for American
allies all over the world.
Salt Lake City Has
Worst FI:: J In Its History
SALT LAKE CITY, <£>)—Flood
waters continued to rage down
Utah’s mountain canyons Tues
day as thousands of workers bat
tled the state’s worst flood crisis
in history.
The flood waters knocked out
a railroad bridge, ripped out a
dam, drove families from their
homes, blocked highway traffic
and continued to spread over
farmlands.
Streets in Salt Lake City were
sandbagged into emergency canals
to carry off the overflow from
several canyons to the east in the
Wasatch mountains.
“This is the most dangerous
flood situation the city has ever
faced,” said City Engineer Roy W.
McLeese. “It’s anybody’s guess
whether we can continue to con
trol it.”
