Treasury debt relief to lower future taxes
Washington June 22 Associated Press the June fiscal operations of the treasury will yield long term savings by cutting fixed government expenditures. Officials say about 22 million annually in interest will be saved as new securities of 150 million this month retire around 445 million in notes and tax certificates mature June 15. The move reduces the wartime debt substantially, with 521 million retired against 150 million issued, signaling ongoing tax relief as the national debt declines.
