First Liberty Bonds Called For Payment
The Treasury announced on March 14 that it will call for payment on June 15 of the entire outstanding First Liberty loan bonds totaling about 1.933 billion dollars. The issue, maturing 1932‑47, includes 1.392 billion at 3.5 percent, 5.0 million converted 4 percent, and 536 million converted 4.25 percent bonds. The move aims to cut interest costs and retire gold clause bonds after the Supreme Court ruled against gold payments. No details were given on exchange securities, though a recent refunding used 20‑25 year bonds at 2.875 percent. The rate for any future exchanges will depend on money rates at flotation time.
