Bailout pace quickens as treasury funds near depletion
The administration signals urgency for more bailout money as the bailout trust warns funds may run out soon after September 30. About 210 thrifts have been resolved, 250 insolvent under government control remain, and 250 more at risk under private ownership. Officials plan to prioritize the fastest losing institutions and reject 1988 deal methods. The Treasury raised its borrowing estimate for the quarter to 62 to 66 billion. The trust agency also seeks investors for 3.7 billion dollars of junk bonds from failed thrifts amid pressure on states with many troubled institutions.

Texas Lifts Restrictions On Chartered Thrifts
The early 1980s shift allowed federally chartered thrifts to broaden investments while Texas removed limits on state chartered thrifts. Critics say real estate developers used thrifts as private banks financing office buildings and malls, triggering insolvencies and broad taxpayer costs. Kennedy proposes a $100 billion bailout tax plan targeting high earners and corporations to fund the rescue.
