Treasury Auction System Shifts To Small Issues
The treasury plans to limit future use of the auction system to small securities while abandoning the $1.3 billion financing project. Yesterday's offer用了 $450 million in bonds and an equal amount in notes with $418 million of maturing securities open to exchange. The sale adopts a discount to the highest bid for non interest securities and a premium over par for some interest bearing issues. Officials said early results showed a normal and satisfying response. Total potential public debt would reach a record $30.5 billion if the entire offering is subscribed. Bonds carry 2 percent for ten years and notes 1 percent for five years.
