he volume of public s e c u r i t y f i n a n c i n g t o obtain new c a p i t a l
was f a i r l y s u b s t a n t i a l l a s t week and i s expected t o be moderately l a r g e r
t h i s week. During the week ending June 8, four corporations o f f e r e d l a r g e
s e c u r i t y i s s u e s t o t a l i n g $160 million, and one S t a t e and l o c a l government
bond i s s u e with p a r value of 411 mill ion was sold. This week, ending
June 15, t h r e e l a r g e corporate i s s u e s t o t a l i n g $80 million a r e scheduled
f o r o f f e r i n g and t h r e e S t a t e and l o c a l i s s u e s amounting to $125 million a r e
on t h e calendar. The Boston Edison Co0 i s a l s o scheduled t o s e l l $15
m i l l i o n in bonds to refund outstanding s e c u r i t i e s .
Bond y i e l d s . Changes in y i e l d s on seasoned long-term bonds
continued t o be mixed l a s t week. Yields on Aaa-rated corporate bonds were
s t a b l e while y i e l d s on Baa-rated i s s u e s rose 2 b a s i s p o i n t s t o 5=00 per c e n t .
S t a t e and l o c a l government bond y i e l d s continued t o r i s e with y i e l d s on
Aaa-rated i s s u e s i n c r e a s i n g 1 b a s i s p o i n t to 3.05 p e r cent and t h o s e on
Baa-rated i s s u e s k b a s i s p o i n t s t o 3.6k p e r c e n t . Yields on U. S. Government bonds declined a s i n g l e b a s i s p o i n t .
Average y i e l d s on new corporate bonds, a d j u s t e d to an Aaa b a s i s ,
were k°2h p e r cent l a s t week, 18 b a s i s p o i n t s above t h e average f o r t h e
previous week. A portion of t h i s i n c r e a s e , however, probably r e f l e c t e d
the s p e c i a l c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s of one of l a s t week's new i s s u e s .
Mortgage recordings. Nonfarm mortgage recordings of $20*000
or l e s s changed l i t t l e i n February ( t h e l a t e s t month a v a i l a b l e on a
three-month moving average b a s i s ) from t h e moderately reduced January
r a t e . The seasonally a d j u s t e d monthly r a t e of $2,682 m i l l i o n was within
3 per cent of the record volume of l a s t October and more/than a t e n t h
above a year e a r l i e r .
,
For the f i r s t q u a r t e r as a whole. Government-underwritten loans
accounted f o r 26 per cent of the t o t a l d o l l a r volume recorded. This
compared with'-22 per cent a year e a r l i e r , but was s u b s t a n t i a l l y below
the f i r s t q u a r t e r highs of 1951 and 1955 when VA-lending was unusually
strong and conventional mortgage lending was appreciably l e s s important
than i n recent years.
Short- and intermediate-term i n t e r e s t r a t e s . Yields on Treasury
b i l l s declined to new lows f o r the y e a r l a s t week with y i e l d s on 3-month
and 6-month b i l l s down 3 and 2 b a s i s p o i n t s , r e s p e c t i v e l y , y i e l d s on
3-5 year U. S. Government o b l i g a t i o n s declined 3 b a s i s p o i n t s . The
average r a t e of i n t e r e s t on d i r e c t l y - p l a c e d f i n a n c e company paper with
90-179 day maturity increased 11 b a s i s p o i n t s t o 2.99 p e r cent as a r e s u l t
of an i n c r e a s e in t h e r a t e paid on such paper from 2-7/8 t o 3 per c e n t
announced e a r l y l a s t week by the major f i n a n c e companies. The average
Federal funds r a t e increased 37 b a s i s points t o 2.25 per c e n t . Other
s h o r t - and intermediate-term i n t e r e s t r a t e s were unchanged.




Stock prices„ Common stock p r i c e s moved i r r e g u l a r l y lower again
l a s t week i n f a i r l y a c t i v e t r a d i n g . P r i c e s , as measured by Standard and
P o o r ' s composite index of 500 stocks, declined almost 2 per cent on balance,
closing on June 8 a t 58„U5. Trading volume averaged k*2 m i l l i o n shares a
day, l e s s than half of the near-record volume of the previous week but
