Treasury Raises Interest Rates
On "E" Bonds Effective Thursday
?' ' A? ? ' *
Teh Treasury Department an
nounced Tuesday that higher
rates on its savings bonds will' bo
effective soon, majority of the in
creases to take place May 1.
Here are the changes in each
of the three ma?or fields of sav
ings bonds:
1. The series "E" defense bond
-r-tho type held by most indivi
duals ? will be continued. Prices
and maturity values will be' the
same -you still get $1 for every
$3 you put in, if you hold the
bondthe full term. But the, bond
will reach full value In nine years
and eight months* instead of 10
years as at present. This amounts
to increasing the total interest
fate, from 2.9 per cent to 3 per
cent annually.
Perhaps more important, the
rate interest in . the first few
years will be stepped up sharply.
The new "E" bonds can be cashed
in at 1.07 per centr interest an
nually after six months, 1.59 per
cent after one year, 2.1 per cent
after two years and 2.5 per cent
after five years.
The present "E" bonds pay no
interest if cashed in the first year,
only .88 per cent if cashed in at
two years and 1.79 per cent at
five years. Advisors have told the
Treasury this low rate of interest
the first few years has: been one
of the chief drawbacks to *'E"
bond sales.
Persons .on payroll saving
plans will get the new terms on
all-bends delivered after May 1.
Those who want to keep their "E"
bonds another 10 years, if their
bonds mature after May 1. will
get 3 per cent interest. for the ex
tended period Instead of 2.9.
2. The new "H" bond, like the
"E" bond, will be sold only to in
dividuals and will pay 3 per cent
interest if held for the full term
of nine years and eight months.
But it will be sold at par, or
face value, and can be cashed in
at par. And it will be sold only
in denominations of $500 and $1,
.000 and above. The interest will
be paid in semi annual checks pro
viding regular current income to
bondholders, increasing the long
er the bond is held.
For a 51,000 "H" bond, the in
terest check will be $1 after six
months, ?12.50 for e.ich of the
next seven six-month periods and
$17 every six months for the next
sik years. The "H" bond will be
put on sale June 1 at Federal Re
serve Banks and the Treasury.
3. The present series "F" and
"G" bonds, which pay about 2.5
pet cent interest over a 12-year
term, will be replaced by series
"J" and "K" bonds respectively.
The new bonds will pay 2.75 per
cent interest.
The "J" bond. like. t he "K" will
be sold at a discount and reach
full value only at maturity. The
"K" bond, like the "G," will pay
interest in semi-annual pay
ments an a current income basis.
By providing bigger interest
rale increases in the "J" and "K"
bonds, and current income for the
"H" bonds, the Treasury appar
ently hopes especially to increase
sales among larger investors.
