the first nine months of 1984
amounted to $41,050,314, up
almost one percent from a year
ago. This represents 65.9 percent
TJt the state's dollar goal of
$62,300,000.
^ Nationally, sales for the period
January-September amounted to
$3.07 billion, the highest for the
nine-month period since 1980.
January -September redemptions
totalled $4.9 billion, four percent
above the same period a year
ago.
Except for last year's $4.7
billion, redemptions were the
lowest for any January
September since 1975. With more
than $73 billion in Savings Bonds
outstanding, the bond program is
saving the Treasury, and
taxpayers, nearly $2 billion
annually in interest costs on the

for Series EE Savings Bonds
issued between November 1, 1984
and April 30, 1985 is 10.94 percent
for their first semiannual
interest period.
This is the fifth semiannaul
rate to take effect since market
based, variable rates were
introduced on November 1, 1982,
and represents a significant
increase from the May-October
rate of 9.95 percent.
The rates are changed
semiannually, in November and
May. When combined with
previous market-based rates, the
average yield for the five periods
is 10.00 percent. This average is
part of the market-based
formula only for eligible bonds
issued on or before April 30, 1983.
