Plan to Issue $60 Million Bonds to Cover Panama Canal Deficit
Washington reports a proposed $60 million bond issue to reimburse the government for Panama Canal payments. Secretary Shaw argues the deficit stems from extraordinary canal costs, not ordinary revenues, and bonds could finance the project while avoiding tariff changes. Congress expected to authorize bond sale to cover about $29 million excess and prevent future deficits. The plan, amid political sensitivity, aims to reduce the current year’s shortfall and maintain a strong treasury balance.
