Treasury Reports
Bond Issue Didn't
Come Up Estimate
(By The Associated Press)
WASHINGTON. Aug. 30, —The
Treasury today reported the first
difficulty during this administration
in floating a government bond issue,
when only eighty-five and one-half
million dollars of tends were receiv
ed for a hundred million dollar off
ering.
The offering consisted of four
year, one and one-half percent bonds
for the federal farm mortgage cor
poration, made last Monday.
They sold on a competitive or auc
tion basis to the highest bidders.
Treasury officials today could not
recall a similar instance in the mem
ory of any of them when such a let
down has been experienced.
The closest approach is said to
have been last August when one
of three issues of Home Owners
Loan Corporation bonds, fell two
million dollars shy of the requested
fifty million.
All other floatation issues have
been oversubscribed. This last off
ering, Monday, bore the uncondition
al guarantee of the government,
both as to principal and to interest.
Mail the Nome Daily Nugget to
your friends, and let them know
about the re-building of Nome.
