Treasury Bonds Lead Market Amid Strength in US Debt

New York June 17 The bond market gains came from strong US treasury securities and prime investment issues while secondary loans were uneven and foreign bonds especially Germany showed reactionary moves. Government announced $1.353 billion of six new 3 percent bonds and 24 percent notes, with public debt rising about $832 million despite maturities. A $192 million federal land bank 4 percent bond issue will be underwritten by the Treasury and open for subscription tomorrow, with partial redemption of existing 4 percent land bank bonds on July 1 and allotment favoritism for subscribers to the new issue. The German moratorium on interest payments surprised few as German reserves declined and Reich obli gations wavered. Italian issues softened while high-grade bonds drew attention to safe investments. The banking system reserve total rose to a record peak of over $1.75 billion, with total reserves near $3.1 billion and process reserves expected to near $2 billion.
