PRESS STATEMENT

Washington, D. C.
March 81,1945

A call for the payment on June 1, 1945, of Home Owners’ Loan Cor­
poration Series M V/% % bonds, which mature June 1, 1947, was announced
today by John H. Fahey, Federal Home Loan Bank Commissioner. This
issue of bonds now amounts to $754,904,000.
“A high level of principal repayments on HOLC loan accounts has
enabled bond retirements of the Corporation averaging $28,000,000
monthly since the beginning of the current fiscal year,” Mr. Fahey
said.
“After June 1, the outstanding Home Owners’ Loan Corporation
bonds will amount to about $1,033,000,000, representing a reduction
of more than $2,456,000,000, or 70 percent, from the total of bonds
issued by HOLC since its inception.”
