Treasury seeks debt limit hike and bond reforms
Treasury Secretary George P. Shultz urged Congress to raise the debt ceiling by 20 billion dollars to 485 billion and to remove a 52 percent interest ceiling on U.S. savings bonds. He proposed issuing income tax refunds as cashed checks that would become interest bearing bonds if uncashed, arguing it would improve debt management despite higher taxes.
