Growing Theft Of Bonds Worries Insurance Firms
The Federal Reserve Board says government security thefts are widespread, deterring insurers from covering U S Treasury bonds. Losses last year reached 20 million dollars in New York banks, with Wall Street brokers hit hard. The FBI keeps a list of stolen securities and restricts data to police only. The board urges direct FBI access for banks or a new federal computerized list to curb stolen bonds.

United States Liner To Be Placed In Dead Storage In Jet Age
The United States liner, once the fastest trans Atlantic vessel, will be kept at the Norfolk terminal for $9,000 monthly as jet travel and costs depress earnings. The 940 foot ship faced a $4 million annual loss even with a $12 million federal subsidy, and Newport News Shipbuilding cited lack of storage space. The ship’s owners cite high wages and jet airliners eroding passengers. The move leaves a historic record holder parked in Virginia.
