Results of Treasury’s Offering of 4 %

Bonds of 1970

To All Banking Institutions, and Others Concerned,
in the Second Federal Reserve D istrict:

The following statement was made public today by the Treasury
Department:
The Treasury announced today that the response to its recent offering of
4 percent bonds maturing in August 1970 had exceeded its expectations. Nearly
24,000 individual subscriptions were received fo r an aggregate of about IlG 1/^
billion. The Treasury will allot in fu ll subscriptions up to $100,000. A ll other
subscriptions will be subject to a 5 percent allotment, with a minimum allotment
of $100,000 per subscription.
Although an allotment ratio of 5 percent is unusually low, the resulting
total of about $1.9 billion of accepted subscriptions will extend well beyond the
normal range o f overallotment. Because the total o f accepted eligible subscrip­
tions will substantially exceed the $ l 1/4 billion originally sought by the Treasury,
the Treasury will make no allotments to Government Investment Accounts.
Details by Federal Reserve Districts as to subscriptions and allotments will
be announced next week.
