BONDS OFFERED Mellon Anoounces Plan to Take Care of War Debt Washington, Oct. 9.—The treasury department has announced an issue of $500,000,000 or thereabouts, of long term refunding bonds to take care of the war debt. The bopds will mature in 1952 and will be callable in 1947. They will pay 4 1-4 per cent. interest, a rate which is‘belleved by treasury officials to be in harmony with the money market, and which it is be- lieved will make the offering an un- usually attractive long term invest- ment. In announcing the issue, Secretary Mellon reserved the right ‘to accept subscriptions in excess of the $500,- 000,000 to the extent to which 4 3-4 | per cent. Victory notes maturing Dec. 15 next, wer® offered in exchange. The bond issue fundamentally is in- tended to absorb these Victory notes, of which 8870,000,000 fall due on Dec. 15 next. It is possible, there- fore, that subscriptions somewhat in excess may be accepted where the operation involved simply mnfeans an exchange of Victory notes for the new bonds and would not, ti€refore, cause any severe disturbance of the money market Another Bond Issue Planned. The probability is, however, that the total of subscriptions accepted will not exceed $750,000,000 even if note holders subscribe heavily. Other Victory notes which fall due in De- | cember will be taken care of by an- other bond issue, the total to be de- termined largely by the total of the Victory notes offered in exchange for the 41-4 per cent. bonds at lh!s* time. It is possible that some of the mon ey obtained through the bond issue will be used temporarily to meet cur- rent expenses, including the maturity of other government obligations. Secretary Mellon made the follow ing official statement, announcing the bond issue: ““The secretary of the treasury in- vites subscriptions at par and accrued interest from the people of the United states for 41 per cent. treasury bonds of 1947-1952, of an issue of gold bonds of the United States authorized by the act of congress approved Sept 24, 1017, as amended.
