To All Banking Institutions, and Others Concerned,

Your attention is invited to the following announcement issued today:
“ Secretary of the Treasury Snyder announced today that on
May 14, 1951, he will call for redemption the 3 percent bonds of
September 15, 1951-55, which are outstanding in the amount of
$755,000,000. The 2 percent bonds of 1951-53, which are also call­
able on September 15, 1951, will not be called for redemption on
that date.
“ Secretary Snyder also stated that beginning on May 15, he
will offer for continuous subscription a new series of Treasury
Savings Notes. These notes will be similar to the series now being
offered, except that the interest return will run from 1.44 percent
if the notes are held for six months or less, to 1.88 percent if the
notes are held for the full 3-year term.
“ Further details with respect to this offering will be an­
nounced later.”
Yours very truly,
R. R. GILBERT
President
