Government to borrow 400 million in new issues
The Treasury plans a 400 million dollar borrowing to meet December obligations. A 150 million series will bear 13 and one quarter percent for six months, and a 250 million issue will pay 17 and eight tenths percent for a year. These rates are the lowest since the war and reflect easy money conditions. The move comes as the Treasury faces a December 15 cash need and a 314 million deficit already recorded for the year.
