FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
WITHHOLDING OF APPRAISEMENT ON
BICYCLES
The Treasury Department is instructing customs field officers
to withhold appraisement of bicycles from Italy, manufactured by
Cesare Rizzato & C. s.n.c., Padova, Italy, pending a determination
as to whether this merchandise is being sold in the United States
at less than fair value.

Notice to this effect is being published

in the Federal Register.
Under the Antidumping Act, determination of sales in the United
States at less than fair value would require reference of the case
to the Tariff Commission, which would consider whether American industry was being injured.

Both dumping price and injury must be

shown to justify a finding of dumping under the law.
The allegation in this case was received on February 3, 1964.
The dollar value of imports received during the period from July
1963 to date Ims approximately $23,000.

On a coupon issue of the same length and for the same amount invested, the return on
these bills would provide yields of 3.56%, for the 91-day bills, and 3.71%, for the
182-daY bills. Interest rates on bills are quoted in terms of bank discount with the
return related to the face amount of the bills payable at maturity rather than the
amount invested and their length in actual number of days related to a 360-day year.
In contrast, yields on certificates, notes, and bonds are computed in terms of interest
on the amount invested, and relate the number of days remaining in an interest payment
period to the actual number of days in the period, with semiannual compounding i f more
than one coupon period is involved.

COAST GUARD ACADEMY, NEW LONDON, CONNECTICUT
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3, 1964, 11:00 A.M., EDT
Mr. President, we are honored beyond measure by your presence
among us here today. We know how difficult it is for you to break
away from the tasks that never cease to press upon you -- as our
nation's leader in the pursuit of greater freedom and prosperity
at home, and greater peace and freedom throughout the world.
That you have chosen to take part in these ceremonies today will
remain a lasting source of pride to all of us -- and to none more
than to the young men who will soon go forth to help safeguard
travelers upon the waters and to preserve our shores from
danger.
You young men are about to enter a Service which is both
an Armed Force and a humanitarian agency -- which brandishes
the arrow of arms to all who would bring harm to our shores, and
proffers the olive branch of peace and succor to all in danger or
distress upon our waters.
It takes men of exceptional training
and character to carry out that dual mission -- as the men of the
Coast Guard have been doing with uniformly high distinction for
nearly 175 years.
In your wake lie patient, intensive hours of trial and
training. Ahead, lie the proud careers for which you have long
prepared and long awaited -- the unceasing challenge of furthering
the humane mission for which the Coast Guard is known and honored

The Treasury Department has determined that RWS Sinoxid rifle

The income derived from Treasury bills, whether interest or gain from the sale
or other disposition of the bills, does not have any exemption, as such, and 10S8
trom the sale or other disposition of Treasury bills does not have any special
treatment, as such, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954.

The bills are subject

to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, whether :Federal or state, but
are exempt from a.ll taxation now or hereafter imposed on the principal or interest
thereof by any state, or any of the possessions of the United states, or by any
local taxing authority.

For purposes of taxation the amount of discount at which

Treasury bills are originally sold by the United states is considered to be interest.

Under Sections 454 (b) and 1221 (5) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954

the amount of discount at which bills issued hereunder are sold is not considered
to accrue until such bills are sold, redeemed or otherwise disposed of, and such
bills are excluded from consideration as capital assets.

Accordingly, the owner

of Treasury bills (other than life insurance companies) issued hereunder need include in his income tax return only the difference between the price paid for euch
bills, whether on original issue or on subsequent purchase, and the amount actually
received either upon sale or redemption at maturity during the taxable year for
which the return is made, as ordinary gain or loss.

REMARKS BY THE HONORABLE DOUGLAS DILLON
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
BEFORE THE THIRTY-FOURTH NATIONAL BUSINESS CONFERENCE
OF THE HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL
AT THE NEW COVERED TENNIS COURT BUILDING
HARVARD UNIVERSITY, BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS
S~TURDAY, JUNE 6, 1964, 10:25 A.M., EDT
When the Kennedy Administration took office, one of the most
'nt tasks confronting it was the need to rethink the role of
:al policy in relation to all other elements of overall economic
_cy.
That need was imperative both because of the persistently
,gish performance of our domestic economy, and because of the
.ting deficits in our balance of payments, which had seriously
.ed confidence in the dollar and had caused a rapidly accelerating
·low of gold. We were then in the midst of our fourth post-war
ssion -- and each of the three previous recessions had been
.ed by successively shorter and weaker recoveries. Unemployment
far too high.
Business investment was wholly inadequate to
lulate needed growth or to maintain the competitive posture of
ican industry in a rapidly changing world.
The great challenge was to find a new way to promote more rapid
steadier economic growth at home, and at the same time restore
idence in the dollar by whittling down and eventually eliminating
balance of payments deficit. There were many gloomy prophets
insisted this couldn't be done and conjured up an irreconcilable
lict between encouraging domestic growth and eliminating balance
ayments deficits. More rapid growth, they argued, means more
nd for everything -- including imports. Also, they claimed, the
sures it puts on the labor markets and on plant capacity lead
itably to higher prices, which both hinder exports and further
ate imports.
The fact, however, is that a strong, healthy and vigorously
nding domestic economy is essential to sustained confidence in
dollar and to balance of payments equilibrium.
For in any
all long-run appraisal of our balance of payments, the imperatives
that our industry remain in the forefront of technology, that

- 2 -

)ur productivity rise fast enough to satisfy the pressures for higher
real wages and income while maintaining stable prices, and that our
economy crackle with investment opportunities fully comparable, or
superior, to those abroad. All of these are the fruits of domestic
growth -- fruits now well on their way toward ripening under the
policies of the past three and one-half years.
The situation that confronted us in 1961 -- and still
continues -- ruled out the use of extremely low interest rates.
we simply could not permit short-term interest rates to drop to the
levels of earlier postwar recessions without courting a massive
outflow of short-term capital. On the contrary, with interest rates
already substantially higher in nearly all other countries, even
naintaining the January 1961 level of short-term rates entailed
grave risks. Ways had to be devised, and promptly, to shore up our
short-term interest rates, while assuring a ready availability of
longer term credit at reasonable rates to bolster lagging domestic
investment. In short, the very real dangers in our balance of
payments situation necessarily limited the freedom of monetary policy
and gave it a new challenge -- to facilitate investment at home
without provoking an outflow of capital abroad.
This meant that fiscal policy had to assume a larger share of
the task of encouraging and sustaining domestic growth. That is
why, from the day President Kennedy took office, we looked to
fiscal policy to move us once again -- as we are now moving -- toward
full employment, and assigned it a more active role than perhaps
ever before in our history.
But that basic determination promptly raised questions
involving tax and expenditure policy. The big question was whether
to increase government expenditures or to reduce taxes -- or, to
come to the heart of the matter: whether to rely upon the latent
energies of the private sector or to expand government activity.
Our fundamental problem in early 1961 was sluggish growth and
inadequate incentives for investment. Postwar expansionary forces
had been dissipated. Tax rates were siphoning off too much income
to allow the private economy to reach full employment. The result
Nas inadequate demand -- with increased unemployment and evermore
frequent recessions.

- 3 Larger government expenditures, if well timed, could, of
course, have boosted demand and thereby cut unemployment.
But,
unless such expenditures could be' clearly justified on their own
merits, their long-run contribution to productivity and investment
would be uncertain at best. Thus, they seemed to offer less benefit
to the balance of payments than the path we chose:
tax reduction.
We were convinced that tax reduction could achieve the necessary
expansion of purchasing power by freeing the private economy from
high and restrictive wartime tax rates, originally designed to restrain
strong and inflationary pressures that no longer existed. Lower tax
rates, we felt, would also offer the much needed long-run stimulus to
growth that comes from added incentives to invest and to produce.
These, in turn, would lead to cost-cutting improvements in technology,
thus strengthening our international competitive position and enhancing
our trade balance. And greater profitability in the domestic economy
would also encourage the employment of funds here, instead of
abroad.
Both of these results would directly help our balance of
payments.
In the early days of the Administration, therefore, and without
hesitation, we decided to employ fiscal policy -- and, more
specifically, tax policy -- to expand the role of the private sector
of our economy as the primary force in achieving our national
economic goals. We also felt that, having made this decision, we
should not lose the opportunity it presented of making long-needed
reforms in our tax system. Thus, an already large task became even
greater. And, while the basic blueprint -- tax reduction to expand
the private sector of our economy, accompanied by long overdue tax
reform -- was set forth by President Kennedy at the very beginning
of his Administration, concrete results were necessarily piecemeal,
and took years, rather than months.
Our choice of tax reduction called for expenditure restraint,
since there would necessarily be a temporary lag in Federal revenues.
Yet, in 1961, there were overriding national priorities, all of which
cost money:
the need to bring our military defenses to a higher
plateau of readiness, the special requirements of the Berlin crisis,
the rapidly expanding space program. And, of course, the interest
on the national debt. We could not cut down in those areas, but we
could -- and did -- hold down sharply the rate of spending in other
areas.

- 4 That record of expenditure restraint comes through clearly when
)u compare expenditures, incurred and planned, in the four fiscal
'ars from 1961 through 1965 with those of the preceding four years,
period in which considerable stress was placed on prudent budgeting.
: is true that we find overall budget expenditures in the 1961-65
?riod increasing at an average of about $4 billion a year compared
) just over $3 billion a year during the earlier period.
But the
~eakdown of the increases during the two periods is very revealing.
)r the fiscal 1957-61 period we find budget expenditures for defense,
)ace, and interest on the debt increasing by $6.5 billion, with
=penditures in all other areas going up by a nearly equivalent
) billion.
In the fiscal 1961-1965 period, on the other hand,
=penditure increases for defense, space and interest will almost
)uble, amounting to about $12 billion, but the policy of expenditure
'strain is evident in the sharp decline in the increases for all
:her expenditures, which will total only about $4 billion, one-third
'ss than the comparable increase during the earlier 4-year period.
As we had planned and expected, the need for increasing outlays
1 defense and space has now levelled off.
That fact, joined with
Ie thorough-going economy drive which President Johnson is so
lrcefully spearheading, means that funds are now being freed both
) meet vital domestic needs such as the poverty program and to
leed the achievement of a balanced budget.
It was necessary to get the major increases in defense and
.ace spending behind us before we could safely implement our full
'ogram of tax reduction.
But rather than wait, we promptly under10k two major moves to improve the climate for business investment
,ves that could be instituted without any excessive loss of revenue.
:ey were the Revenue Act of 1962, with its central provision of a
percent investment tax credit, and the administrative
beralization of depreciation -- both landmarks of progress in our
ive to spur the modernization of our capital equipment. Together,
ey increased the profitability of investment in new equipment by
re than 20 percent. This was equivalent in terms of incentives
invest to a reduction in the corporate profits tax from 52
rcent to about 40 percent.
These measures brought the tax treatment of investment in the
ited States more closely in line with that provided by other
dustrial countries -- thus removing an unwarranted inducement to
vest overseas -- while at the same time working toward a more
ficient, competitive, and profitable home economy. They wert
so accompanied by significant improvements in the equity of our
x structure, as well as by limitations'Jn the use of tax havens
road.

- 5 Although these were major achievements, they were merely first
teps in our integrated, long-range program to stimulate the private
2ctor of the economy.
The bigg~st impediment to a more robust
rivate sector still remained -- the high individual and corporate
1come tax rates, born out of wartime inflation, that continually
revented the economy from reaching and maintaining its full
Jtential.
In so doing, they reduced taxable income, held revenues
t inadequate levels -- and thus were self-defeating in any effort
) restore budgetary balance.
The Revenue Act of 1964 substantially embodies the tax program
= proposed to break the grip of these high tax rates upon our
:onomy. Since we desired, at the same time, to improve tax
1uity, that Act also substantially reduces the tax burden on those
Ltizens whose incomes are inadequate by any standard.
I think it
in truly be said that the Revenue Act of 1964 is not only a giant stride
Jrward in our drive to secure self-generating, long-run economic
~owth, but is also a milestone in improving the equity of our tax
!stem. The fact is that revenue raising reforms in the 1964 and 1962
:ts, taken together, totalled $1.7 billion, almost three times the
~OO million in new revenues produced by all other revenue acts since

}40.
While the prime purpose of our overall tax program is -- and
~ays has been -- the long-range stimulation of our economy to
'rmanently higher levels, the timing of the program has been
lportant in sustaining the present expansion, and deliberately so.
, must not, however, let this question of timing obscure the underring objectives of the tax program.
The fact that the Revenue Act
: 1964 is having some beneficial counter-cyclical effects should
It be taken to mean that we have succeeded in developing a new and
:fective counter-cyclical tool.
There remain, in my opinion, great obstacles to the use of
x policy for purely counter-cyclical purposes.
The chief of
ese obstacles is the fact that, within our constitutional system,
long lag typically intervenes between a request for a change in
x rates and legislative approval. Unless and until some method
worked out -- acceptable to the Congress and consistent with
s prerogatives -- whereby tax rates can be varied without undue
lay, the purely counter-cyclical function of tax policy will
main outside our arsenal of economic tools.

- 6 -

This does not mean that cyclical changes in tax policy would
not be useful. Nor, fortunately, does it mean that tax policy
is entirely impotent in moderating cyclical fluctuations today.
By promoting sustained growth and a stronger economy, tax policy
can be and, as it has been developed over the past three and
one-half years, now is an important counter force both to recessions
and to inadequate growth. But we clearly have a major piece of
unfinished business to resolve before we can claim that tax policy
is fully equipped to do for us the job that any modern economy
requires of it.
It is, of course, far too early to reach any final judgment
on the results of this year's $11.5 billion reduction in personal
and corporate taxes. Some observers have expressed surprise that
its effects upon consumer spending so far appear to be moderate;
others are relieved that the tax cut has not overheated the economy.
I have always expected, and have so stated repeatedly, that the tax
cut would not create a sudden spurt of consumer spending, but would
gather momentum gradually, with the full stimulus not being felt
until next year.
We can, however, take a reading of the cumulative effects of
our earlier actions, including the 1962 investment credit and
depreciation reform. So far as our domestic economy is concerned,
the current expansion is now in its 40th month -- the longest
peacetime expansion in this century except for the half-hearted
recovery from the depths of the great depression of the thirties.
Gross National Product in real terms has already increased by 17
percent since the beginning of recovery in March of 1961. This far
exceeds the record of the two previous recoveries. And prospects
are favorable for continued expansion for many more record-breaking
months to come.
While still too high, the unemployment rate has begun to
diminish perceptibly, moving down to 5.1 percent in May, compared
with the 5.7 percent average of 1963. More striking has been the
decline in the jobless rate for married men, which at 2.6 percent in
May is now lower than at any time since July of 1957 -- seven years
ago. The comparatively large number of teenagers entering the labor
force in recent years presents a special and very difficult problem,
but even here, the jobless rate of 15.0 percent thus far in 1964
is nearly a full percentage point below the 1963 rate.

Recent gains in total employment have been impressive: In
le year ending last month, jobs rose by about / 2 million to 70.8
1I1ion -- more than twice as much as the 800/million gain during
le preceding 12-month period. Increased employment and better
,e of our productive facilities have been accompanied by betterlan-average productivity gains, reflected both in higher personal
lcomes and higher profits. Indeed, the performance of profits
IS provided the best possible answer to talk of a long-term profits
lueeze and lack of investment incentives. Corporate earnings before
IX have risen sharply, reaching an annual rate of $56 billion in the
_rst quarter of this year, $1.7 billion higher than the last
larter of 1963 and $7.7 billion, or 16 percent, higher than during
le first quarter of 1963. With tax liabilities in the first quarter
ready reflecting the new reduced corporate tax rates, corporate
'ofits after taxes ran at the rate of $31.1 biTI.ion-- more than
'enty percent higher than in the same quarter of last year and
're than sixty percent higher than in the first quarter of 1961.
At the same time, the recovery has witnessed a large and steady
se in real take-home pay for labor -- as evidenced by the fact
at, after taxes and adjustment for price increases, the average
ekly take-home pay for a wage-earner with three dependents is today
n percent larger than it was in early 1961.
It is highly significant that all of these economic gains have
en accomplished in an environment of price stability. Average
olesale prices are no higher today than they were six years ago.
is price stability has been of critical importance to our balance
payments, and is now beginning to payoff in terms of increased
npetitiveness in our export industries. Our trade balance has
:ently improved, instead of deteriorating, as many had feared,
response to the sustained gains in domestic production. For the
,t nine months, our trade surplus has been running at an annual
:e of $6 billion, compared to a rate of less than $4-1/2 billion
the previous 18 months. While some of this improvement results
)m special and temporary factors, it also undoubtedly reflects real
~ns in American competitiveness.
Overall, our balance of pAyments deficit has declined sharply
Ice the middle of last year. Since then, the annual rate of
:icit on regular transactions, which averaged more than $3-1/2
lion for the past six years, and last year amounted to $3.3 billion,
been cut in half. This has enabled us to staunch the heavy
ins on our gold stock. The latest figures of our overall gold

- 8 :ock show that as of May 31st our holdings of gold were slightly
)ove those at the end of last July -- ten months with no net loss
: all, compared with a loss of $1.7 billion in the single year
)60.
Much of this improvement in our balance of payments stems from
)ecific measures -- the proposed interest equalization tax on
lrchases of foreign securities, the tying of larger proportions
: our aid, and economies in our military spending abroad.
Part of
: is due to temporary factors.
It is clear that we have no cause
lr complacency, for, while we expect our payments deficit to be
_gnificantly reduced this year, we cannot relax until it is ended
ltirely.
But happily, evidence is accumulating that we have
:urned the corner" in our balance of payments, which, like the
lmestic economy, is beginning to show the favorable effects of the
"Ire active fiscal and tax policies, complemented by appropriate
lnetary policies, that have characterized the past three years.
These effects are quite apparent in investment spending -- the
y area in terms of both our domestic growth and our balance of
yments. P13nt and equipment outlays, you will recall, leveled
'f and even declined after mid-1962, following the break in stock
ices and reflecting widespread business uncertainty.
But, by
e second quarter of last year, less than a year after the new
preciation rules and the tax credit became effective, they were
sing strongly and are now running almost one-sixth higher than
the first quarter of 1963. Further sizeable increases are in
ght through the rest of this year.
It seems clear that these
ccessive increases in planned expenditures largely reflect the
dening recognition of the new incentives implicit in the recent
x measures -- including not only the 1962 measures, but this year's
o-stage reduction in corporate tax rates to 48 percent.
For example, steel companies are planning a 1964 increase
2S percent in their capital spending programs, as are the railroads;
tor vehicle makers outlays will be 20 percent higher, and so on
ross the whole range of American industry.
For manufacturing as a whole, according to the latest Commerce-SEC
rvey, 1964 planned plant and equipment expenditures are expected
rise 13 percent above 1963 outlays, and the average rise for all
jus tries will be a tenth higher than last year.

- 9 -

I should point out here that the 1964 Act also restores the
vestment credit to the form originally recommended by the
ministration. The earlier requirement that the depreciation basis
. new investment benefiting from the credit be reduced by the amount
that credit has now been eliminated. This change has almost
ubled the value of the credit, while at the same time greatly
mplifying the accounting problems raised by the 1962 provision.
A recent study by George Terborgh of the Machinery and Allied
oducts Institute emphasizes the importance of the investment
edit and goes on to illustrate the extent to which the 1962 and
64 Acts, taken together, raise prospective after-tax returns and
celerate the recovery of capital investment. His study estimates
at, in order to have achieved effects upon after-tax returns
capital comparable to those of the 1962 and 1964 measures, it
uld have been necessary to either:
Cut corporate tax rates from 52 percent to
34 or 29 percent, depending upon the assumed
proportion of equity to total capital, or to
have allowed an initial depreciation of from
53 to 57 percent of asset cost, or to have
reduced the cost of new capital equipment by
16 percent.
It is hardly surpr~s~ng that investment activity is responding
incentives of this magnitude -- even though it will be some time
~ore the cumulative impact is fully realized -- and that investment
~nding is now spearheading the recovery.
The proportion of capital
'nding to real GNP -- GNP in terms of constant 1954 prices -- after
lpping for so long, has at last been turned around and is once again
ling, reaching 8.8 percent during the past six months .... up from
f percent in 1961 and 8.6 percent in 1962.
We expect to continue
this higher leve l, thus he 1ping our long -run growth and
Jductivity and improving our payments balance by absorbing more
our savings here at home.
The ready availability of credit has also had a favorable
luence on the growing strength of domestic investment, but we
e found ways of making this credit available without driving
rt term interest rates sharply lower. Instead, with the
nomy expanding vigorously at home, monetary policy has been able
discharge its full share of the task of defending the dollar.

- 10 )ur short-term rate structure has been brought into better alignment
lith those prevailing overseas, and our monetary authorities are
lOW in a flexib Ie pos i t ion, prepared to mee t wha tever further
:ontingencies may arise in the balance of payments.
In the relatively short span, therefore, of less than three
Ind one-half years, both American economic policy and practice have
:aken new and dramatic turns for the better. Our economy is no
_onger on the wane -- but surely and strongly on the rise. And we
:an now look forward, in all sober confidence, to the continuation
)f a peacetime economic recovery of greater durability and strength
:han in any comparable period in this century.
Equally important, the past three and one-half years constitute
1 significant watershed in the development of American economic
)olicy. For they have borne witness to the emergence, first of all,
)f a new national determination to use fiscal policy as a dynamic
md affirmative agent in fostering economic growth. Those years
lave also demonstrated, r.ot in theory, but in actual practice, how
)ur different instruments of economic policy -- expenditure, tax,
lebt management and monetary policies -- can be tuned in concert toward
lchieving different, even disparate, economic goals. In short, those
rears have encompassed perhaps our most significant advance in
lecades in the task of forging flexible economic policy techniques
:apable of meeting the needs of our rapidly changing economic scene.
Even so, much remains to be done. We dare not relax our efforts.
)f all the challenges looming ahead, the major one, I believe, is to
_nsure the continuation of cost-price stability. Our price record
:0 date is a good one; but we must now sustain it, as more rapid
~rowth absorbs the slack in our unused human and physical
"esources.
In a competitive world economy, linked by fixed rates of
domestic costs and prices must be kept in reasonable
llignment with those abrosd. This is not a problem unique to the
lnited States, for it is being faced, in one form or another, by
lir tua lly every free indus tr ia 1 ized coun try. Bu t, in our own case,
lith our payments in deficit, the range of tolerance is even
larrower.
~xchange,

New ways of meeting this challenge are being developed, here
nd abroad, through so-called incomes policies. In practice, the
lethods vary wide ly. In bas ic concept, however, they all entail

- 11 -

ome expression of the public interest in the results of the wagelargaining and price-making process, when large unions and large
:irms have a considerable degree 'of market power. In our own case,
:his approach is a purely voluntary one. It is embodied in the
rage-price guideposts developed by the President's Council of
:conomic Advisers for appraising the consistency of pattern-setting
rage and price decisions with overall price stability.
We have placed much emphasis on this approach because it seems
us to represent a natural and needed complement to the mixture
)f fiscal, tax, and monetary policies that we have fashioned.
:ertainly, appropriate use of the traditional policy instruments
'emains essential if we are to be successful in maintaining price
:tability. But unless prices remain stable and wages are kept
lithin the bounds of productivity increases, conflicts in goals
rill inevitably arise. If that happens, monetary and fiscal
>olicies, at times, will, in the quest for price stability, need
:0 be more restrictive than is consistent with rapid and sustained
;rowth.
:0

The same general point can be put another way: Government
las at its disposal a range of policy instruments that, used wisely
lnd flexibly, can help immensely in steering our economy toward
lore rapid growth, toward balance of payments equilibrium, and
·oward price stability. But without the cooperative efforts of
Jusiness and labor in maintaining price stability our policies will
le rendered incomplete and inadequate. With that cooperation I am
:onfident that this Nation can fully capitalize on its enormous
~conomic potential, and continue to lead the free world to greater
)rosperity for all.

FOR RELEASE:

UPON DELIVERY

REMARKS OF THE HONORABLE DOUGLAS DILLON,
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
AT
PRIZE DAY CEREMONIES
GROTON SCHOOL, GROTON, MASSACHUSETTS
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10, 1964, 10: 00 A. M., EDT
(AS DELIVERED)

This is a very special and happy occasion for me for, although
I have been back to the school many times since that Prize Day
37 years ago when Groton sent me forth into the world, this is the
first time I have been back here for Prize Day.
This is the occasion when we of an older generation pay homage to
those who are about to enter upon therrmost fruitful and
productive years. It is, of course, not always easy for one
generation to speak to another. I recall that vivid scene in
The Education of Henry Adams, in which the young Henry, not "much
more than six years old," engaged "one summer morning in a
passionate outburst of rebellion against going to school." Clinging
with all the strength in his small arms to the bottom of a staircase,
the boy was on the verge of victory, when his grandfather -- the
former President of the United States, John Quincy Adams -appeared. Silently, the old man took young Henry by the hand and
walked him nearly a mile through the hot sum of early summer to his
school. Thereby, the old President earned the lifelong admiration
of his grandson, because, in the words of The Education, "during
their long walk he had said nothing, uttered no syllable of
revolting cant about the duty of obedience and the wickedness of
resistance to law," and the boy "gave his grandfather credit for
intelligent silence."
But much as I admire that story, I cannot today be silent, for
I am convinced that one of the great needs of our nation is not for
silent, passive observers, but for active, intelligent, and
effective voices. It is of that need -- particularly in public
service -- that I wish to speak today.

- 2 You sixth formers who are graduating today have received something
very special -- the best secondary school education available in our
land. You have enjoyed the rare opportunity of working closely with
a superb faculty under the guidance and leadership of a great headmaster, John Crocker. Today, as in the past, Groton has stressed, not
only the pursuit of excellence in all things, but the importance of
public service as one of the highest of human endeavors.
It can fairly be said that never before in our history has the
need or the opportunity for public service been so great. As our
civilization grows and becomes more complex, ever
.
greater responsibilities descend upon Government at every level
upon the county court house and upon the city hall, upon our
state capitals, and upon the Federal Government in Washington.
Think of today's problems of educatiJn, or urban renewal,
in a great city such as New York or Chicago, or Philadelphia,
problems unthought of only a few years ago. Think of the
challenges posed by our exploration of outer space, an enterprise
so vast and expensive that it could only be undertaken by the
Federal GoverDment.
There has never been a more exciting or momentous time to
live -- and we Americans live at the very center of challenge and
opportunity. Yet, as the counterpart of its tremendous
opportunities, this age of nuclear weapons and supersonic travel holds
tremendous dangers as well.
There is, of course, the awesome danger
of nuclear war and world wide holocaust that we can neither ignore
or forget when we formulate or evaluate national policy.
But behind this danger is another equally fundamental.
I speak
of the danger that, in this world of dazzling and sometimes
bewildering change -- in this world of incredibly complex and
shattering events -- our courage may fade, our endurance flag, our
patience run out. And we may seek refuge in the deceptive security
of the past, or oi a single oversimplified solution, or of a
sudden rash act.
But we cannot -- and we must not -- yield to the
temptation of such easy escapes from reality.
For in the real
world alone will we find our destiny
and in that world there
is no simple answer to our problems, no single cure for our ills,
and no easy way to success.
I have, however, not the slightest doubt that we will be well
preserved against this danger, as against others, if young men of
talent, intelligence and training like yourselves do not hold back,
but take hold of the complex and difficult problems of our times
and move to the very vanguard of events in the years that lie ahead.

- 3 -

Those years hold the promise of an affluence for our people
far beyond anything we have ever known. The great challenge will
be, not merely to take part in creating that affluence, although
that is important, but to transform it into something more than
a orgy of comfort -- to make of it a springboard that can bring the
life of this nation closer to its ideals. Nowhere will that
challenge be greater -- nowhere can it be met with better result
than in public service.
As you sixth formers go out into the world this morning, I urge
you to give serious thought to public service, for its needs and its
opportunities are limitless. So, except in material ways, are its
rewards.
When I speak of public service, I mean many things. There are
the scientists probing outer space for the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration. There are the dedicated members of our
Foreign Service working in more than a hundred countries to advance
the cause of freedom as well as to protect the interests of our
country. There are the unsung toilers in our Central Intelligence
Agency. There are the city planners grappling with the mounting and
tortuous problems posed by our ever-spreading cities. There are the
judges charged with preserving our laws, our Constitution, our very
way of life. And then there are those who seek elective public
office -- the men we speak of as politicians.
I have no patience with the presumption shared by
some that the word "politician" is somehow unsavory. There has
been, and will continue to be, corruption in politics as long as
human beings are corruptible -- just as there will be in business
or in any other walk of life. But there is nothing inherently
corrupt or grimy about politics -- either in theory or in practice.
And far more than in other aspects of our national life, any taint
that may soil our political activities can only do so to the extent
that we, the people of our land, by our indifference or by our
unconcern, permit it to exist. I know of few callings of any kind
that are, on the whole, so well honored and so well served by the
men who follow it.
While I have never run for public office, I have worked actively
for many years with our elective officials -- at the county level,
in the State House in New Jersey and, for the past eleven years at
the national level, first in Paris, and then in Washington. Over
those years I have r.ome to know well many holders of political
office. I have seen the pressures under which they operate. And
I have come to know one thing -- and to know it well: our country,

- 4 in the years ahead, will be just as good, and no better, than the men
For these men not only
who serve her in elective public office.
represent the people who chose them, but have the power to influence
profoundly the thinking and conduct of their communities -- and,
ultimately, of the nation as a whole.
I fully recognize that many of you, for one reason or another,
may find it impracticable to make a career in public life. You may
find your calling in the practice of medicine or of law, or in
teaching or in the ministry. You may join the fields of banking
or of business. Excellence in all these areas is essential to the
progress of a free people.
But to those of you \vho find that you
cannot participate directly in public life, may I express the hope
that you will endeavor to share in that life by working actively in
the political vineyards.
That does not mean just once every four years when we elect
a President, but on a continuing basis at the state and local
levels. Do not shrug off your responsibility and argue that
Government is something for someone else to worry about. Local
Government is the very root and core of our national political
system.
It cannot thrive without your help and the help of men like
you. You can help shape the course of community events by helping
your elected officials.
They need and want that help badly, and in
many ways:
in the form, naturally of political contributions and
votes, but also in the form of active help at the precinct level
and, perhaps most important of all, in the form of intelligent,
friendly, and unprejudiced advice, both before and after election.
It may be that some of you will seek election to the United
States Congress, or wDl be in the forefront of help and counsel
for someone else who dues.
If either course is ever open to you,
then I fervently hope that you will take it.
In our Government of checks and balances, as you know, we
put great power in our President.
But, as you must also know, he
:an do little or nothing without the support of the Congress. And
that support does not come to a President automatically, as it does
to the leaders of Governments operating under the parliamentary
;ystem, with its requirement for strict party discipline. This,
Ln our American view, is as it should be, for otherwise the
:entralization of power would be far too great.
But it also
~mposes a heavy responsibility upon our Congress -- a responsibility
:hat will be met well or ill according to the quality of those who
lake up the Congress. We may, as we proclaim, be a nation of laws
tnd not of men, bu t we mus t never forge t tha t i t is men - - the men
'hom we e lec t - - who make our laws.

- 5 In my years in Washington I have come to know and admire many
of our Senators and Representatives. My respect for them, and the
manner in which they so ably discharge their heavy responsibilities,
is unbounded. No man could find a better way to serve his country
than through membership in one of the Houses of our Congress -and nowhere, with the exception of the Presidency, is it more
imperative that we have men and women of the highest ability.
Let no one deceive you:
Public life is hard, sometimes
frustrating, and -- as heaven and the public servant well know
it is often underpaid. Many of our public officials put in longer
and harder hours than most other citizens. And by and large their
material compensation is less for equal effort. Their life is
filled with a thousand vexations, and their work continually
hampered by one obstacle or another.
But there is also great reward.
It is not acclaim, for few
public officials are fortunate enough to receive public plaudits
or even, once they leave office, to live very long in the memories
of their constituents, let alone in the pages of the history books.
Rather, the reward of which I speak is the one of which we hear
all too often -- and experience, perhaps, all too seldom:
the
reward that comes from doing something that matters -- from
serving in a cause far greater than oneself or one's immediate
personal interests -- from serving one's country, one's ideals,
and one's fellow citizens.
There is also reward in the fact that in few pursuits, except
public service, can one come so closely in touch with the most
vital and vibrant issues and opportunities of one's time.
In this
sense, the life of a public official, while it has its long hours
of routine, is continually filled with unexpected and varied
:hallenges. Public life, as I have observed and experienced it,
is far from monotonous.
It is exciting, even thrilling. And it
is this excitement, created by the continual encounter with
?verchanging experiences, that gives to public life its zest and
3ppea 1.
Our late President John Kennedy once said, "Of those to whom
nuch is given, much is required." He also delighted in remarking
~hat, "The Greeks were right when they defined happiness as the
full use of one's powers along the lines of excellence." And there
vas in his mind -- as there is in mind today -- a close kinship
)etween those two thoughts.
For nowhere is there more required of
:hose to whom much has been given than in the public service. And
lowhere is there an occupation that offers so abundantly the sheer
lOy that comes from using one's powers to the fullest and in the
)ursuit of the most excellent purposes.
For you who leave Groton
:oday, I can think of no higher recommendation.

STATEMENT OF THE HONORABLE DOUGLAS DILLON
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
BEFORE THE HOUSE BANKING AND CURRENCY COMMITTEE
ON H. R. 11499
10:00 A.M. EDT, THURSDAY, JUNE 11, 1964
Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee:
I am happy to appear before you this morning in support of
H.R. 11499.

This bill would extend until June 30, 1966, the

existing authority of the Federal Reserve banks to purchase
directly from the Treasury public debt obligations up to a limit
of $5 billion outstanding at anyone time.
This authority, which would otherwise expire at the end
of this month, was first granted in its present form in 1942
for a temporary period.

It has been renewed on eleven separate

occasions since that time.

While used only very sparingly

during these past 22 years, and not at all since 1958, I strongly
share the conviction of my predecessors that maintenance of this
authority is essential to the proper and economical management
of the finances of the Government.
The value of the direct purchase authority does not rest
on its frequent or extensive use.

R~ther

it is designed to provide

protection against the inevitable uncertainties in estimates of

D-1255

- 2 -

receipts and expenditures and in our borrowing operations and
the unforeseen contingencies that can arise from time to time.
At no time in our financial planning do we look upon this
authority as a substitute for market financing or a cheap source
of funds.

But its continuing availability as a backstop for

all our Treasury cash and debt management operations both
permits more economical management of our cash position over
the years and assures our ability to provide needed funds
almost instantaneously in the event of a national

emergency~

The reasons we feel that maintenance of this authority is
essential can be summarized under three points.

First~year

in and year out it provides us with the margin of safety that
is necessary if we are to permit our cash balance to fall to
exceptionally low levels during periods of seasonally lean
revenues.

This, in turn, allows the public debt to be kept to

a minimum and saves interest costs to the Government.
During the past six months, for instance, we have succeeded
in holding the Treasury's operating cash balance down to an average
of $5.1 billion, or only about half of an average month's cash
expenditures.

That average has implied, of course, much lower

balances during some periods, as we awaited heavy receipts or

- 3 the proceeds of cash borrowings.

With budgetary and trust fund

payments running at a rate of over $10 billion per month, these
low balances could be maintained, even for brief periods, only
because as an emergency support we could count on obtaining
funds overnight, if necessary, through the authorization to
borro,,, temporarily from the Federal Reserve banks.

As recently

as this past April, it appeared possible that use of the authority
might be necessary to tide us over a short period before sizable
individual tax collections began to flow in.
did not prove necessary.

In the end, that

But without the potential ability to

borrm" directly from the Federal Reserve, it is clear that
prudence would have compelled us to enlarge our cash balance
bv borrowing additional amounts in the market at a time when
market conditions were unfavorable and interest costs had
temporarily risen.
In the second place, there is always the possibility that
erratic swings in money market conditions and sentiment may
produce disturbances of a character that would warrant postponement
of a planned Treasury borrowing.

In such instances, it is the

availability of direct access to Federal Reserve credit that
would permit us the flexibility required in such a situation to

- 4 draw on our cash and to await more propitious market circumstances.
Finally, and perhaps most crucial in an uncertain world, the
direct purchase authority is available to provide an immediate
source of funds for temporary financing should this be required
by a national emergency.

It is, unfortunately, possible to

visualize the kind of situation in which our financial markets
would be disrupted and even paralyzed at a time when large amounts
of cash had to be raised to maintain Governmental functions and
meet the emergency.

Consequently, the direct purchase authority

is a key element in all our financial planning for a national
emergency or a nuclear attack.

And this is the reason why this

authority is required for as much as $5 billion, even though in
the past little more than a

qu~rter

of

th~t

Amount has ever been

used.
Consistent with these three points, I want to emphasize
that the direct purchase authority is viewed by us as a temporary
accommodation to be used only under unusual circumstances.

The

Treasury fully agrees with the general principle that its new
securities should meet the test of the market and that purchases
of Treasury obligations by the central bank should normally be
made through that same public market.

Moreover, this direct

- 5 purchase authority should not be considered a means by which
the Treasury may independently attempt to influence credit
conditions by circumventing the authority of the Federal Reserve
to engage in open market operations in Government securities.
In that connection, it is important to emphasize that any
direct recourse by the Treasury to Federal Reserve credit under
this authority is subject to the discretion and control of the
Federal Reserve itself.
This borrowing Authority has not been abused in the past.
The accompanying table, providing details on the instances of
actual use, shows clearly that it has been used only rarely ?nd
for limited periods.

The borrowings are promptly shown on both

the weekly Federal Reserve and end of month Treasury statements,
assuring the widespread pUblicity that is the best possible
deterrent to abuse.

In addition, the Federal Reserve must include

such information in its Annual Report to the Congress.

And, of

course, this borrowing, like any other Treasury borrowing, is
subject to the debt limit.
It is a happy circumstance that we have not had to use this
authority for more than six years.

But, as an insurance policy

against financial emergency and an essential backstop to our cash
management, it must be kept available in case of need.

certificates would be constituted an additional medium of exchange,
or, in effect, money."
In its letter to the Jewel Tea Company the Treasury stated:
"We appreciate very much the courtesy of the Jewel Tea Co. and its
representatives in consulting with us on this matter and the cooperative way in which it has provided us with all necessary information
bearing upon our consideration of this question."
The Treasury is taking all possible steps to maximize the production and issuance of coins, which are already being produced and
issued at a record rate, in order to bring to an end at the earliest
possible time the existing shortage of coins in various parts of the
country.

Every effort is being made through the Federal Reserve

System to insure an equitable distribution of coins.

TIle Treasury Department today advised the Jewel Tea Company of
Chicago that its proposal for issuance of 1, 5 and le cent certificates
in lieu of coins to customers would be in violation of existing provisions of law.
The Jewel Tea Company proposal involved the issuance of certificates in denominations of 1, 5, and 10 cents, bearing the legends
"Redeemable at any Jewel Food Store, Osco Drug Store or Turnstyle
Family Center in merchandise, in

~urrency,

or in COin when available

in ,.;hole dollar amounts, \I and "Not Negotiable."
Before deciding whether to go ahead with preparations for instituting its certificate system, the Jewel Tea Company requested the
opinion of the Treasury as to its legality.
The Treasury advised the company that:

"Section 336 of Title 18

of the United States Code prohibits, under penalties of fine or
imprisonment or both, the making, issuance, Circulation or payment
of obligations of a less sum than $1, 'intended to circulate as money

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CERTIFICATES FOR COINS ILLEGAL TREASURY RULES
The Treasury Department today advised the Jewel Tea Company of
Chicago that its proposal for issuance of 1, 5 and 10 cent
certificates in lieu of coins to customers would be in violation of
existing provisions of law.
The Jewel Tea Company proposal involved the issuance of
certificates in denominations of 1, 5, and 10 cents, bearing the
legends "Redeemable at any Jewel Food Store, Osco Drug Store or
Turnstyle Family Center in merchandise, in currency, or in coin when
available in whole dollar amounts," and "Not Negotiable.1!
Before deciding whether to go ahead with preparations for
instituting its certificate system, the Jewel Tea Company requested
the opinion of the Treasury as to its legality.
The Treasury advised the company that:
"Section 336 of
Title 18 of the United States Code prohibits, under penalties of
fine or imprisonment or both, the making, issuance, circulation or
payment of obligations of a less sum than $1, 'intended to circulate
as money or to be received or used in lieu of lawful money of the
United States.'
A similar prohibition exists in Section 491 of
Title 18 of the United States Code. The combination of the fact that
these certificates would be issued and redeemed at some 250 outlets
in the Chicago area of that company, that they would be wholly or
partially redeemable in cash and that, in spite of the legend on the
certificates, there would be no practical way of preventing the
transfer of the certificates from one person to another, would tend
to endow them with the status of money aGd they would therefore be
calculated to circulate as money within the meaning of these statutes.
Other business firms in the community could be expected to accept
the certificates readily in payment for goods and services, confident
that they could be redeemed at any Jewel Tea Company outlet, with
the result that such certificates would be constituted an additjonal
med ium of exchange, or, in e f fec t, money."
In its letter to the Jewel Tea Company the Treasury stated:
"We appreciate very much the courtesy of the Jewel Tea Company and
its representatives in consulting with us on this matter and the
cooperative way in which it has provided us with all necessary
information bearing upon our consideraticm of Lhi:--; Wii'·ci,·j:.'

The Treasury is taking all possible steps to max~m~ze the
production and issuance of coins, which are already being
produced and issued at a record rate, in order to bring to an end
at the earliest possible time the existing shortage of coins in
various parts of the country. Every effort is being made through
the Federal Reserve System to insure an equitable distribution
of coins.

On a coupon issue of the same length and for the same amount invested, the return on
these bills would provide yields of 3.58%, for the 91-day' bills, and 3.71%, for the
182-day bills. Interest rates on bills are quoted in terms of bank discount with
the return related to the face amolmt of the bills pqyab1e at maturity rather than
the amount invested and their length in actual number of days related to a 360-day
year. In contrast, yields on certificates, notes, and bonds are computed in terms
of interest on the amount invested, and relate the number of days relliaining in an
interest payment period to the actual number of days in the period, with semiannual compo'Jnding if more ilian one coupon period is involved.

'OR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ACME STEEL COMPANY DECISION WILL NOT AFFECT
ANTIDUMPING ENFORCEMENT
The decision last month of the Acme Steel Company case by the
ourt of Customs and Patent Appeals will have no effect upon the
reasury Department's enforcement of the antidumping laws, G. d'Andelot
elin, General Counsel of the U. S. Treasury Department, said today.
Mr. Belin said that the Acme decision did not involve interretation of the antidumping laws.
It dealt only with the question
f ""hat was the proper basis of appraisement for ordinary customs
urposes of steel strapping imported in 1960 by a parent U. S. company
rom its Canadian subsidiary.
Both the lower and appellate courts
oncluded th2t in the particular circumstances of the shipment
nvolved there "J3S an "export value" within the meaning of the customs
ppraisemenL statute and that, therefore, this value would have to be
sed for ordinary customs appraisement purposes. Under the statutory
rovisions for "export value," selling and similar costs incurred
nly in Canada are not elements of the value of the goods for customs
ppraisement purposes.
The antidumping laws were not involved or
Jnsidered in the Acme case. There have been no imports of steel
trapping in commercial quantities since 1960.
In determining if there is dumping, the Secretary is obliged by
~atute, Mr. Belin said, to compare "foreign value" with either the
)urchase price" in the United States or with the "exporter's sales
rice." Under the antidumping laws, there are always issues of the
<tent to which the three quoted terms, which are all defined by
:atute, may be affected by differences in circumstances of sale. The
~cretary must decide these issues; but neither the quoted terms nor
1e Secretary's decisions with respect to the issues are affected by
1e Acme dec is ion.

these things, and more, in the united States Coast Guard, which

lerself in Pearl Harbor on that fateful morning of December 7th,
.941. The RELIANCE acquitted herself well in that difficult
loment, pumping shells at the attacking air fleet throughout the
'ncounter. She then carried out patrol duty, operating out of
'earl Harbor, for the remainder of World War II.
This fourth and newest RELIANCE is the latest achievement in
:he unbroken line of Coast Guard development and progress reaching
tIl the way back to 1790. She is not only a beautiful ship, with
ler clean, graceful lines, but a fine example of modern engineering
:now-how. She boasts a combination diesel engine and gas turbine
Iropulsion plant to drive her twin propellers, and a deck capable
If carrying the Coast Guard's new amphibious helicopter for
xtended search and rescue tasks. She can tow ocean vessels up
o 10,000 gross tons, has a sustained speed of 18 knots and a
ruising radius of 5,000 miles at 15 knots.
With this splendid new ship and the many others that will
ollow her over the next decade, the Coast Guard is entering upon
new era of even greater service to country and humanity. In
962, as many of you know, a major, new, ship-construction program
as approved for the Coast Guard,designed to modernize its entire
leet over a period of years. This was part of an even broader
rogram touching the whole range of the Coast Guard's activities.
The RELIANCE is the forerunner of a series of new mediumndurance cutters provided for under the long-range program. And
his year, construction is beginning on the first of a series of
?w high-endurance cutters which will further enhance the Coast
lard's capabilities. The RELIANCE, therefore, is not simply an
{cellent but isolated addition to the Coast Guard fleet. In her
ike will follow many smart, new ships that -- like the RELIANCE -III advance and augment the Coast Guard's efforts to bring safety
ld security to our shores and waterways and on the high seas.
Those efforts will always be vital -- because for all the
lrvels that man has performed during his centuries on this
lrth, he may never control the weather or the sea. But if we
Innot tame these elements, we can arm against their dangers,

can marshall our skills, our courage, and our resources to
rotect us from their unbridled onslaught. We have done all these
lings, and more, in the United States Coast Guard, which serves
Lways as a strong and sure lifeline for all in distress or
mger in our waters or on the neighboring high seas.
The RELIANCE, and the men who man her, will make that
lfeline even surer and stronger -- and will extend even farther
le Coast Guard's outstretched hand of help to those in need.
le will bring to the many other important tasks of the Coast

STATEMENT OF THE HONORABLE DOUGLAS DILLON
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
BEFORE THE SENATE FINANCE COMMITTEE
ON THE PUBLIC DEBT LIMIT
10:00 A.M., TUESDAY, JUNE 23, 1964
In the absence of new legislation, the $315 billion
temporary debt limit, under which we are currently operating,
is scheduled to drop for the one day of June 30 to $309 billion
and on July 1 the limit will revert to its permanent level of
$285 billion.
The latest published figure we have for the public debt
subject to the limit is $311.9 billion as of June 18.

While

there are many cross currents in the last two weeks of June,
our best estimate is that the debt will still approximate
$312 billion on June 30.

This means that if the debt limit

is not raised before then, the outstanding debt will exceed
the limit by about $3 billion on June 30 and by more than
$26 billion on July 1 when the ceiling drops to its $285 billion
permanent level.
It is clearly imperative that these scheduled reductions
in the debt limit not be allowed to occur.

We simply cannot

put the United States Government in the impossible posture of
being unable to refinance maturing securities or to pay legal
obligations as they come due.

We can do grave damage to the

credit of the United States if we permit the debt limit
to be inadequate for even one day.

The issue goes well beyond

- 2 -

the question of sound domestic financial housekeeping to the
far greater issue of the financial responsibility or
irresponsibility of our Government.

In a world which recognizes

economic and financial strength as the essential foundation
for military and political power, we cannot permit the
slightest doubt to arise in any quarter regarding the ability
of the United States at all times to meet all of its obligations
instantly and fully.
The outlook for the public debt in fiscal 1965 is shown
in the attached table which is the same as that presented
to the House Ways and Means Committee on May 25.

The table

gives projected levels of the debt for mid-month and month-end
dates through June 30, 1965.

It reflects the usual temporary

seasonal borrowing requirements as well as the need to finance
the deficit anticipated for the year as a whole.
The debt projections shown in the table are, of course,
based on the same mechanical assumption that has been used in
past debt limit hearings:

namely, that the Treasury's operating

cash balance holds unchanged at $4.0 billion.

On this basis,

the table shows that the debt is expected to swing up to
temporary peaks of $320.5 billion on December 15 and $321.0
billion on March 15 before the usual year-end decline brought
on by the heavy June tax receipts.

- 4 regularly requested by both Democratic and Republican
Administrations, represents the minimum margin of safety
needed to cover circumstances which cannot be foreseen,
including the inescapable uncertainties in our month-to-month
projections of revenumand expenditures.

Hardly less impor-

tant, this margin of flexibility also is needed because of the
impossibility -- indeed the undesirability -- of precisely
matching the timing of our borrowing operations to our changing
cash needs.

Treasury borrowing is necessarily done in

relatively large amounts and in an orderly sequence.

These

sizable financings should be and are timed in such a way as
to avoid unnecessary market disturbance and, where possible, to
take advantage of favorable market conditions whenever they
appear.

Our borrowing operations cannot be adjusted to

passing changes in our net inflow or outflow of cash, but
rather must anticipate needs over a period of time.
The final column in the table shows the debt limit required
when we add this $3 billion safety margin to each of the
semi-monthly projections of the public debt.

It is clear from

these figures that a $324 billion debt limit is necessary to
provide adequate room for maneuver in managing our finances
responsibly and economically.
I should emphasize that our peak debt requirements are
primarily a reflection of the recurrent seasonal pattern in
our receipts and expenditures.

And it is this peak requirement

- 5 which determines the appropriate level for the debt ceiling.
As I have pointed out to your Committee before, the debt rises
substantially during the first half of every fiscal year, in
years of budget surplus as well as in years of budget deficit.
This is so because we receive only about 44 percent of our
annual revenues in the first half of each fiscal year, the
July-December period, with the remaining 56 percent flowing
in during the second half, which includes the big corporate
tax payment months of March and June.

As a result, the

Treasury always has to borrow heavily in the July-December
period but can then, depending on the state of the budget,
payoff some or all of this seasonal borrowing out of the
heavy receipts which flow in from mid-March to the end of the
fiscal year.
This means that the peak of the debt in any given fiscal
year is importantly influenced by the previous year's results.
Generally speaking, whenever we run a deficit in one year the
debt ceiling for the following year must be increased in
roughly the same degree.

Conversely, a surplus in one year

should permit a reduction in the debt ceiling for the
following year.
rule.

Fiscal 1965 is no exception to this general

Since we are incurring a substantial deficit in

fiscal 1964, a substantial increase in the 1965 debt limit
is essential in order to meet the seasonal requirements brought

- 6 on by reduced receipts prior to the heavy flow of tax payments
that begins on March 15.

Our need for a $9 billion increase

in the debt limit for fiscal 1965 rests largely on this fact
and is only influenced in a relatively minor degree by the
deficit that is projected for fiscal 1965.
Let me now turn to the fiscal background of our debt limit
recommendation.

The following table presents the fiscal

1964 and fiscal 1965 estimates of receipts by the Treasury and
of expenditures by the Budget Bureau that were released by
the President May 22 and presented to the Ways and Means
Committee on May 25.

The table shows that the deficit for fiscal 1964 is lower
than was estimated in January and that the deficit for fiscal
1965 is higher.

But the significant point is that these new

estimates for fiscal 1964 and fiscal 1965 indicate that the

- 7 -

overall two-year deficit will be $300 million less than was
originally estimated in January.
The estimate of $5.8 billion for the fiscal 1965 deficit
is some $900 million more than the $4.9 billion deficit
projected in the President's January budget message, even
though the Budget Bureau's spending estimate for fiscal 1965
has been reduced by $600 million from the earlier estimate.
This increase in the 1965 deficit is due almost entirely to
changes made by the Congress in the tax bill as compared to
the assumptions that were used by the President in his budget
message.
Most important is the fact that the tax bill went into
effect about one month later than had been assumed in the
President's budget message.

This meant that the 18 percent

withholding rate continued for one month longer than had been
projected with a consequent benefit of some $800 million to
fiscal 1964 revenues (the monthly dollar difference between
the 18 percent withholding rate and the current 14 percent
withholding rate).

But it also meant that estimated fiscal

1965 revenues will be reduced correspondingly since final net
payments on 1964 liabilities by individual taxpayers next
spring will be lowered by the same amount.
The second factor is that the Revenue Act of 1964, as
finally enacted, will result in about $500 million less revenue

- 8 -

in fiscal 1965 than had been provided in the tax bill as it
passed the House, which was necessarily used as the basis for
the revenue estimates in the budget document.
These two changes in the tax program -- together with
minor refinements in the projections of economic activity and
taxable incomes -- have reduced projected revenues for fiscal
1965 to $91.5 billion, $1.5 billion lower than the January
estimate.

But, as noted earlier, the impact of these lower

revenues on the size of the deficit has been partially offset
by the $600 million reduction in expenditures now foreseen
by the Budget Bureau.
Finally, I should like to note that the experience of
recent weeks has been somewhat more favorable than these
May 22nd projections would suggest.
well below expectations.

Expenditures are running

Should this more favorable experience

persist, we can expect to finish up fiscal 1964 with better
overall results than the table indicates.

This would leave

us with a somewhat larger cash balance on June 30th than we
had earlier expected which, in turn, would reduce our needs
for new cash financing over the next few months.
I would now like to mention briefly some broader and
longer-run considerations which form the background to this
debt limit hearing.

We are in the early stages of the

- 9 biggest tax cut our Congress has ever approved or this Nation
has ever enjoyed.

We expect this to provide a major long-term

stimulus to the economy, to put new strength into our private
business system, and to strengthen our ability to compete
in international markets.

However, I think everyone recognized,

when this approach was proposed by the Administration and
approved by the Congress, that there would be transitional
deficits that would have to be financed and that an appropriate
debt limit adjustment would be required.

In order to hold

these deficits to the minimum, both in size and time, and to
minimize the requisite increase in the debt limit
President Johnson is making a maximum effort to hold down
Federal expenditures.
We, in the Treasury Department, for our part, always have
before us, as a primary purpose, the protection of the financial
integrity of the United States.

No one is more dedicated to

responsible finance and strict expenditure control than I am.
But effective control of Federal spending cannot be achieved
by restriction at the tag-end of the expenditure process
when the bills come due.

Our bills must be paid promptly and

in full if the credit of the United States is to be maintained.
The proper place to control expenditures is in the
appropriations process and in the Federal agencies which spend
the money.

President Johnson is continuing to press for

- 10 economy in Government, so you can be confident that a reasonable
debt ceiling will not be abused.

Of course, Congress has not

yet completed action on fiscal 1965 appropriations, and
expenditure estimates at this time are necessarily tentative.
However, there is a basis for confidence, I think, in the
fact that the May 22nd estimates show expenditures for fiscal
1964 and fiscal 1965 combined to be $700 million less than was
estimated in January.
If we continue to hold Federal expenditures under control,
the outlook for decreasing the burden of our public debt is
good.

Indeed, by the end of this fiscal year, the Federal

debt is expected to amount to about 50 percent of our current
gross national product as compared to 52-1/2 percent last
year.

This is a smaller percentage than at any time since

World War II financing added so greatly to the public debt.
At the close of fiscal 1946, as you may recall, the debt was
about 127 percent of the gross national product.

With the

continued growth in the economy that is generally expected,
the ratio of the debt to GNP should fall still further during
fiscal 1965, dropping below the prewar levels of fiscal 1939
and 1940.
I think we are well started on an orderly and constructive
program that will stimulate our economic growth, protect our
financial stability at home and the key role of the dollar

- 11 abroad, and also express the fiscal responsibility of the
American people.

Under these circumstances, I strongly urge

that you approve the $324 billion temporary public debt limit
which we are requesting for fiscal year 1965 as the minimum
consistent with meeting our financial obligations and handling
the public debt in an economical and responsible fashion.

FOR RELEASE A.M. NEWSPAPERS
MONDAY, JUNE 29, 1964
TREASURY TO DOUBLE COIN PRODUCTION
The Treasury today announced an intensified program to double
the nation's rate of coin production within a year and raise it by
75 percent during the next six months.
By next June, the program will boost our coin production to
an annual rate of over 9 billion new coins -- more than double
the 4.3 billion level for fiscal 1964 and triple the 3 billion
level for fiscal 1961. For the last six months of this year -normally a time of peak demand for coins -- the program will mean
a 75 percent increase in coin production over the same period last
year, a rise to 3.5 billion new coins from the 2 billion produced
in the last half of 1963.
This increased production will be distributed among the
present 5 denominations of coins in about the present ratios
roughly two-thirds pennies, one-fourth nickels and dimes, and
the rest quarters and half-dollars.
The new program will augment the Treasury's already heightened
efforts to expand the nation's coin production in the face of a
growing need for coins.
Steps already taken to expand current production of coins
include the purchase of rolled nickel strip for the making of
all five-cent coins -- thus freeing equipment for other
production -- and the inauguration of a continuous 7-day, 24-hour
production schedule at the nation's two Mints, in Denver and
Philadelphia.
These actions will increase production for the coming fiscal
year by 600 million coins, bringing total budgeted production up
to some 5 billion coins.

D-1267

- 2 To augment these measures, the following new steps will be
taken:
1.
Beginning early in July, bronze strip for
pennies will he purchas~d (in addition to the
nickel strip already being acquired for five-cent
coins), thus freeing all melting, casting and rolling
operations for the production of more silver coins.
2. New coin presses (used to imprint the design
of the coin) are being ordered for delivery early this
Fall and additional stamping machines, which can be
converted for Mint use, are being acquired from the
surplus stocks of the Department of Defense, the
General Services Administration, and private industry.

3. In December, when current orders have been
filled, the proof coin operation (the production of
special sets of coins for collectors) will be
suspended.
Those of its presses that are suitable
will be converted to allow higher speeds and will be
devoted to the production of coins for circulation.
4. As additional presses become available,
production of annealed blanks (round pieces of
metal the actual size of the coin softened to take
the die) for nickels and pennies will be temporarily
shifted to the U.S. A3say Office in San Francisco,
thus permitting the Mints to concentrate on the final
stages of the production of all coins.
5.

The Congress will be asked to continue the

1964 date on all coins indefinitely, thus eliminating
any possible incentives for keeping 1964 coins out of
circulation for speculative purposes.
Through these and other measures, the Treasury Department will
continue to seek out ways of assuring an adequate supply of
coinage with existing facilities -- pending the construction of the
new Philadelphia Mint authorized last August. This Mint will
replace the current Philadelphia Mint, and will be capable of
producing coins at a higher rate than hoth existing Mints together.
However, since funds are only now becoming available to proceed with
construction of the new Mint, its construction is nine months
behind the Treasury's original schedule -- and it will probably begin
coin production in 1967, instead of in 1966 as originally expected
by the Treasury.

STATEMENT OF THE HONORABLE DOUGLAS DILLON
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
BEFORE THE
SENATE FINANCE COMMITTEE
ON H.R. 8000
10:00 A.M., EDT, JUNE 29, 1964
I am appearing before you in support of H.R. 8000, the
Interest Equalization Tax, which passed the House of
Representatives with a large majority on March 5 of this
year.

This tax was originally proposed by President Kennedy

last July in his Special Message on the Balance of Payments.
It has since been fully supported by President Johnson.

I

also favor adoption of the technical amendments suggested
in my letter to the Chairman of June 12, which have been reprinted
by your Committee.
A year ago, our balance of payments was deteriorating
sharply.

That deterioration was due almost entirely to

accelerating capital outflows, and particularly to an
unprecedented outflow of portfolio capital.

The rate at

which new issues of foreign securities were being purchased
had more than tripled in the previous 18 months, and the
volume during the first six months of 1963 reached a total of
$1 billion.

- 2 -

As a result, the deficit in our international accounts
apart from all special inter-Governmental transactions -jumped from the already high 1962 level of $306 billion

to

an annual rate of $5.3 billion in the second quarter of 1963.
If allowed to continue, that deficit would have undermined
the international stability of

the dollar.

Today our balance of payments situation is much improved,
and the dollar is strong.

Judging from data at hand, the

deficit for the fiscal year ending tomorrow, calculated on the
same basis, will be well under half that of the preceding
fiscal year.
Paralleling this improvement, confidence has been restored
in our ability to achieve a balance in our payments within
a reasonable time.
our gold stock.

This, in turn, has staunched the drain on

After declining by an average of $1.7 billion a

year over the 1958-60 period, and by roughly half that rate
during 1961 and 1962, our total gold stock today is virtually
unchanged from ten months ago -- by far the longest period of
stability during the past six years.

- 3 -

However, we must not succumb to any illusion that the
progress of the past year means the end of our long-standing
balance of payments problem or allows us in any way to relax our
drive toward equilibrium.

The hard fact is that after six

consecutive years of large deficits -- adding up to

a total of

$21-1/2 billion on the basis of regular transactions -- we face
once again this year the unhappy task of financing a sizable, even
though substantially reduced, imbalance in our payments.
Roughly half of our payments improvement for the past twelve
months can be traced directly to diminished outflows of capital
into foreign securities.

But the basic problems giving rise to

the enormous capital outflow in 1962 and early 1963 have not yet
been solved.

Were we not now to proceed with enactment of the

proposed Interest Equalization Tax, demands from abroad for
portfolio capital would once again quickly converge on our market
in a volume far larger than we could sustain.

We simply cannot

afford to pay the price such an event would exact in terms of
dangers for the dollar and losses of gold and confidence -- thus
undercutting our whole international financial position.
~eed

for the Tax

The need for the Interest Equalization Tax has arisen out
of a combination of circumstances here and abroad that led to a

- 4 rapid acceleration in foreign demands on our capital market.
In the short space of the first six months of 1963, purchases
of new foreign issues

the overwhelming bulk from other

industrialized countries
rate of $1.9 billion.

reached a seasonally adjusted annual

That was $800 million higher than the already

swollen 1962 total and three and one-half times the 1961 level.
In addition, the indications were that potential borrowers in
Europe and Japan, who had already increased their demands on
our market dramatically, were scheduling still larger borrowings
in this country.
This surging flow of foreign borrowings simply swamped the
real progress in other areas of our balance of payments.

As a

result, our overall deficit on regular transactions rose to an
annual rate of $5 billion during the first half of 1963, sharply
above the totals of $3.1 and $3.6 billion in 1961 and 1962,
respectively.

These increases, as shown by tables 1 and 2,

paralleled the swelling outflow of portfolio capital into new
foreign securities.
This rise in the outflow of portfolio capital reflected neither
financing of U. S. exports nor the more general balance of payments
needs of the borrowing countries.

On the contrary, more and more

of the new flotations in our market were designed to finance local

.. 5 ..

projects of businesses or governments in countries already
enjoying relatively strong or improving external positions.
Many of the new borrowers did not require foreign exchange,
but only desired greater amounts of fresh capital to support
their own internal growth.

Because their own capital markets

were both narrow and costly, those borrowers desiring funds
were naturally attracted by our relatively low long-term
interest rates and by the ease with which large amounts of
funds could be obtained in our well-developed market.

As a

result, a large portion of the outflow of portfolio capital,
by providing more dollars to those who simply wished to exchange
those dollars for their own currencies, was adding roughly
equivalent amounts to our deficit.

The dollars in turn were

flowing into central banks and becoming a claim on our gold.
Appraising the same facts from a European vantage point,
the most recent Annual Report of the Bank for International
Settlements reached the same conclusion.

That Report, which

is representative of responsible and official European opinion,
noted, in speaking of 1963, that

'~ •• instead

of being a net

exporter of capital, which would seem the appropriate structural
position, Europe was a large net importer of capital -- which
in the main has been flowing into reserves."

- 6 Purchases of foreign portfolio securities by Americans do
in time lead to a return flow of interest and

divid~nd

income.

But this potential return is spread over many future years,
while the entire outflow of principal is immediate.

For instance,

during both 1962 and 1963, years when the outflow of

u.s.

portfolio capital into foreign securities averaged about
$1-1/4 billion, the increase in our income from such securities
amounted to only about $50 million a year.

Clearly,

calculations of earnings possibilities many years in the future
cannot, in the situation we face, substitute for the urgent
need to protect the dollar by bringing the current portfolio
capital outflow within the limits of our immediate capacity
to lend.
The Nature of the Interest Equalization Tax
In the light of these circumstances, prompt and effective
action to reduce the outflow of portfolio capital was essential.
The proposal before this Committee is designed to achieve that
result by means of an excise tax levied on the American
acquiring directly from a -non-resident foreigner a foreign stock
or debt issue maturing in more than three years.

While the tax

is payable by the American purchaser, the impact will be
effectively passed on to the foreign issuer in reduced prices
for his securitieso

- 7 The rate of tax is graduated so that its net effect is to
increase by about one percent the annual cost of capital to a
foreigner raising money in our market, thus bringing this cost to
a level more comparable to the costs he would face abroad.

The

result for foreigners would thus be similar to an increase of
one percent in our entire structure of long-term interest rates.
Finding our market more costly, many potential foreign
borrowers will seek the funds they require at home, or in other
foreign markets, instead of aggravating the strains on our own
position.

Similarly, American investors will find the net yield

on American securities relatively more favorable than yields
provided on outstanding foreign securities purchased from foreigners,
and will tend correspondingly to reduce their purchases of such
securities.
We view the proposed tax purely as a transitional measure.

As

our own payments come into equilibrium, as the expansion in our
own economy reduces incentives to export our capital, and as the
capital markets of other advanced countries develop the capability
of more adequately meeting their internal needs, this special tax
can and should be removed.

H.R. 8000 contains a termination date

of December 31, 1965, to assure that it will not be prolonged
beyond the time of need.

At the same time, because of the urgency

- 8 )f dealing with the problem, President Kennedy proposed that

this tax become generally effective July 19, 1963, the day
following its announcement in his Special. Message on the Balance
Jf Payments.

Any other course would simply have been an open

Lnvitation for potential borrowers and lenders to accelerate their
)lans and crowd into our market before the effective date of the
:ax.

Our balance of payments most certainly could not have borne

mch a strain.
On the other hand,'making that proposed effective date known
:0

the market has permitted careful Congressional consideration

)f this important piece of legislation without the atmosphere of
laste and urgency which would inevitably have developed in the face
)f accelerating capital outflows.

The House, in approving this

)roposed date, recognized that any other course would only have
'ewarded those few who have been willing to gamble on the possibility
bat a later effective date would be enacted, at the expense of the
;reat maj ority who have already adj usted their transactions in the
~ht

of the proposed July 1963 effective date.
Transactions in foreign securities between residents of the

S. would not be subject to tax, and Americans would, of course,

e able to sell foreign securities free of tax to foreigners
n markets both here and abroad.

Thus, active trading markets in

- 9 the more than $12 billion of foreign securities already held by
Americans will be maintained, and these securities will fully
maintain their value.

The passage of time since last summer has

clearly proved that the provisions of the tax regarding outstanding
securities are workable, and that they contribute substantially
towards improving our payments position.
The proposed bill would exempt a variety of acquisitions from
foreigners where this is possible without undermining the effectiveness
of the tax and where imposition of the tax would work at cross purposes
with other objectives.

The exclusion from the tax of obligations

maturing within three years assures that the great bulk of our export
financing and normal recurring international business will not be
impeded.

Further to assure unimpeded export financing, longer-term

export paper is specifically exempted, as are bank loans made in the
ordinary course of business.
Other important exemptions would be provided for the governments
and businesses of less developed countries and for direct investment.
In addition, the President would be provided discretionary authority
:0 exempt in whole or in part new issues from a particular country

Ln those instances in which he determines that application of the
:ax would imperil, or threaten to imperil, the stability of the

- 10 international financial system.

This exemption is designed as a

kind of safety valve for use only when it can be clearly established
that, as a direct consequence of the tax, a foreign country would be
forced to take such drastic measures that international financial
stability would be imperiled.

Any such showing would be dependent

upon a highly unusual set of circumstances, and in my opinion the
Jecessary conditions are today met only by Canada.
An annex to this statement describes the provisions of the
)ill more fully, while a detailed summary and a technical explanation
)£ the bill are contained in the Report of the Ways and Means Committee

)f the House.
)alance of Payments Impact
The effectiveness of the proposed tax in reducing the outflow
)f portfolio capital -- and the key importance of this in terms of

he entire balance of payments -- is clearly revealed by the results
ince last July.

After running at a rate of $5 billion during the

ix months prior to the President's Message in July 1963, the deficit
n regular transactions dropped sharply to a rate of $1.6 billion
uring the second half of 1963 and to $700 million during the first
Jarter of 1964.

The first quarter results reflect a number of

- 11 special

f~ctors

which had the effect of substantially but

temporarily reducing the deficito

Among these was an unusual and

temporary short-term capital inflow during March that was fully
reversed early in April, thus adding to the deficit being
incurred during the current quarter.
A number of factors, including a sizable rise in exports,
have contributed to the improvement in our balance of payments
since last July.

However, the single, largest element in this

improvement is the sharp decline in net purchases of foreign
securities.

Comparing the nine months before the tax was

proposed with the nine months since that time for which full data
are available, the outflow into foreign securities dropped from
$1,985 million to $290 million at seasonally adjusted annual
rates, a reduction of $1.7 billion in the annual rate of outflow.
To some extent, these gains were exaggerated by the initial
uncertainties regarding the precise provisions of the tax.

These

uncertainties could not be expected to last, nor would this be
desirable.

Our market will not be closed.

borrow in this country and absorb the tax;

Some foreigners will
others will enter our

market in the knowledge that their issues will be exempted.

There

are clear signs that activity resumed on this basis during recent

- 12 months, and the outflow into foreign securities is therefore
expected to increase moderately.

However, the experience of the

past nine months confirms our belief that the proposed tax will
be effective in confining this outflow to substantially lower
levels than those of late 1962 and early 1963.
During the hearings before the Ways and Means Committee last
fall, the Treasury estimated that imposition of the tax would
result in an overall reduction in the net purchase of foreign
securities of $1-1/4 to $1-1/2 billion a year.

These savings

were calculated from the high levels of outflow during the six to
nine months preceding the tax.

The validity of these estimates

is now strongly supported by the figures at hand -- a savirgat an
annual rate of $107 billion in the nine months following
announcement of the proposed tax as compared to the preceding nine
months.
Such estimated savings are fully consistent with purchases
of new foreign issues at a rate of perhaps $600-$800 million a
year -- close to, but still somewhat above, the rate that would
have been considered "normal" prior to 1962..

Furthermore) such

a total would be consistent with needed progress toward
equilibrium in our balance of payments, without putting undue strain
on the international financial system.

- 13 Already a sizable number of new issues have been diverted to
European markets, where they

t~ve

been absorbed by countries in a

strong balance of payments position.

Under the stimulus of the

tax, European markets have shown that they are capable both of
handling their own

inte~nal

needs in more adequate fashion and of

meeting a larger portion of foreign needs.
I want to emphasize that an exemption for new Canadian issues
should not impair the effectiveness of the tax.

Canadian

authorities have assured us that it is their intention that Canadian
borrowing in our market will not exceed amounts necessary to
maintain reasonable equilibrium in Canada's international reserve
position.

This should mean a substantial reduction in Canadian

borrowing in this country from the exceptionally high levels of
late 1962 and early 1963 to the more normal levels that were
characteristic of earlier years.

Certainly, over the period since

the tax has been proposed, the Canadian reserve position has not
deteriorated despite a sharply lower level of borrowings in our
market.
We have, of course, also been closely following trends in
bank lending, in view of the possibility that foreign borrOwers
might seek to shift to that kind of financing.

While analysis of

- 14 detailed information supplied by the banks on their commitments
for the first five months of 1964 does not suggest any significant
direct substitution for market financing, the total volume of
short and long-term loans outstanding rose sharply in 1963 and
during the first quarter.of 1964.

The rise started early in the

spring of 1963 and became particularly noticeable during the fourth
quarter.
A good part of this increase is clearly related to the surge
in American exports over the same period.

But, in addition, it

is possible that, in adjusting to the tax, borrowers in a few
countries under balance of payments pressure -- notably Japan
have made greater use of bank loanso

While some initial reactions

of this kind are not surprising, and there are now some indications
of a leveling off of the Joan volume, future trends will clearly
require continuing surveillance.

We will promptly recommend to the

Congress appropriate changes in the bank loan exemption should it
appear that such loans are in fact being utilized to any significant
degree as substitutes for market financing.
rhe

Tax and Our Over-all Balance of Payments Program
This tax is only part -- although a crucial part -- of a

~ornprehensive

balance of payments program.

A satisfactory long-run

- ~

solution for our payments problem depends on a more vigorous and
efficient domestic economy, capable of sustained productive
expansion with stable costs and prices.

Major steps to support

this objective were taken in 1962 with the investment tax credit
and the liberalization of depreciation allowances.

They were

followed this year by thE $11.5 billion reduction in individual
and corporate tax rates.
Together with responsible wage bargaining and pricing policies,
these fiscal measures

are now strengthening our basic competitive

position at home and abroad, and our basic trade outlook is
favorable.

Greater prosperity at home, with greater profitability

of investment here relative to the returns available from foreign
investment, will reduce the incentive for direct investment
abroad and encourage the retention of funds at home where their
investment in domestic projects will create more jobs for Americans.
We have also placed great emphasis upon reducing the net
flow of dollars abroad as a result of Government

programs~

For

example, between 1960 and mid-1963, our annual rate of net
military expenditures abroad was reduced by more than $500 million.
That portion of our economic assistance provided by AID in the
form of UoSo goods and services rather than dollars has been

- 16 raised from less than one-third in 1960 to over 80 percent for
current commitments.
President Kennedy last July scheduled an ,additional reduction
of $1 billion in the annual rate of overseas Governmental
expenditures by the end of this year.

President Johnson is

determined to achieve that target.
As you can see, visible gains are being made towards solving
our basic payments problem.

But we must not permit them to be

drained away in a renewed outflow of portfolio capital.
Alternatives to the Tax
While appreciating the need to restrain the outflow of
portfolio capital, some have suggested that there are preferable
alternatives to the tax.

One would be an attempt to drive up our

entire structure of long-term interest rates by about I percento
Such a drastic tightening of credit, if possible at all, would
clearly work against all that we are trying to achieve to reduce
excessive unemployment and encourage the investment that creates
jobs and promotes efficiency.

The Interest Equalization Tax

increases the cost of our money to foreigners, just as would a
sharp increase in our own rates.
Gis~upting

But it will do so without the

effects on the entire domestic economy of an attempt to

artificially force our long-term rates to unrealistically high levels.

- 17 Another suggested alternative would abandon the market system
altogether by rationing credit to foreigners through a capital
issues committee.

Proponents of that approach have failed to suggest

what kind of criteria could be used to cut back the heavy foreign
demands for capital, or. whether any rational criteria could be
consistently applied amid the conflicting pressures from at home
and abroad that would descend upon those administering the system.
To be successful, a capital issues committee would have to be
Government controlled.

This would mean that Government

substituting case by case decisions by the Executive for the market
effects of the proposed tax -- would have to intrude itself directly
into the process of individual decision-making in a way that this
country has never found acceptable save in wartime.

Moreover,

selective rationing would clearly not be workable in the case of
outstanding securities.

There are simply too many transactions in

this area, through too many channels, to make policing practicable
on a case by case basis.

Substantial balance of payments savings

would be sacrificed and, if equal overall savings were to be achieved,
the volume of new issues would have to be held to a considerably
lower figure than is expected under the Interest Equalization Tax.

- 18 Conclusion
The Administration has proposed this temporary tax with
reluctance, but the need for action to restrain the outflow of
portfolio capital is clear.

The workability and effectiveness of

our approach have been demonstrated.

It is far preferable to any

alternative that has been suggested.
Our international competitive position is strengthening, and
other measures to achieve lasting improvement in our payments are
bearing fruit.

But these measures take time, and meanwhile our

deficit remains sizable.

Failure to enact this tax would stimulate

a resurgence of capital outflows with dire effects on our balance
of payments.

Also,such failure could only be interpreted throughout

the world as an unwillingness on the part of the U. S. to face up
to the hard decisions that are required to protect the dollar, and
so the financial health of the entire free world.

I, therefore,

strongly urge your early approval of this vitally important
legislation.

ANNEX

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE INTEREST EQUALIZATION TAX
NATURE

OF TAX

The Interest Equalization Tax is a temporary excise tax
imposed on acquisitions by Americans of foreign securities
from foreigners regardless of where the acquisition occurs.
The tax applies to foreign stock and debt obligations, both
new and outstanding. It does not apply to purchases of foreign securities by Americans from other Americans.
By bringing the costs to foreigners of raising capital
in the U. S. market more closely into line with costs prevailing in foreign capital markets, the tax will substantially
reduce the incentives to foreigners to raise capital in the
U. S. market because of lower interest rates in this country.
The higher cost to foreigners resulting from the tax, however,
is not intended to eliminate all outflows of portfolio capital;
long-term U. S. capital will remain available to those foreigners whose urgent need for such funds cannot be met on
reasonable terms in foreign capital markets.
The rate of the tax in the case of foreign debt obligations is graduated from 2.75 per cent for obligations
maturing in three years to 15 per cent for those maturing
in 28-1/2 years or more. The schedule of rates is determined so as to increase by roughly 1 per cent the cost of
borrowing to the foreigner. In the case of foreign stocks,
the rate of the tax is 15 per cent, the same as for bonds of
the longest maturity.

~.

and Outstanding Securities. The tax applies broadly to
both new stocks and debt obligations and outstanding stocks
and debt obligations. Coverage of transactions with foreigners in all of these categories is consistent with the
intent that the tax operate in a manner analogous to a general
rise in U. S. long-term interest rates, and assures that strong
incentives and opportunities will not arise for funds to flow
out through tax-free channels, undermining the effectiveness
of the tax.
NeH

- 2 -

Short-Term Obligations. No tax is imposed on the acquisition of debt obligations if the period remaining to
maturity is less than three years. This exemption will
oermit the wide variety of short-term credit transactions
~elated to international trade generally and U. S. exports
in particular to continue unaffected. Transactions in
short-term instruments occur in enormous volume and take a
wide variety of forms, but most of them relate to trade
financing and to normal, reversible shifts of funds between
markets in response to temporary needs and short-term
interest rate differentials. Since interest rates for shortterm loans in the United States can more readily be influenced
by monetary policy, without adverse effect on the economy in
general, it has been possible to bring these rates more
closely into line with those prevailing in other important
industrialized nations.
EXCLUSIONS
In addition to the basic exemptions from the tax of
acquisitions of short-term obligations and acquisitions from
other Americans, the bill provides various exclusions so as
not to interfere with certain vital national objectives, such
as the encouragement of U. S. exports, the avoidance of threats
to the stability of the international monetary system, and
the growth of less developed countries. The major categories
of exclusions are described below.
Exoort Financing. One of the best methods of reducing the
deficit in the U. S. balance of payments is to increase
exports from this country. Accordingly, the bill provides
for a series of specific exclusions for stock and debt
obligations acquired in connection with various export
transactions. These exclusions will assure that American
business firms have the ability to offer credit facilities
to their foreign customers, whether for short- or long-term
loans.
The acquisition of debt obligations is excluded from
tax if they are guaranteed or insured by the Export-Import
Bank or other U. S. Government agencies or instrumentalities.
In addition, debt obligations acquired by Americans in

- 3 connection with the sale of U. S. goods (tangible or intangible) abroad are free of the tax, as is the acquisition
of stock or debt obligations in connection with a foreign
project in which American firms partic~pate to a substantial
degree. The bill also excludes from the tax debt obligations
acquired by an American firm from foreign customers when the
proceeds are used for the installation or maintenance of
facilities to service goods sold by the American firm which
were produced, grown, or extracted in the United States. A
similar exclusion has also been provided where the U. S.
firm is engaged in selling ores or minerals in which it has
a substantial economic interest, whether or not extracted
in the United States.
Commercial Bank Loans. Commercial banks making loans in the
ordinary course of their commercial banking business would
not be subject to tax. ~bst of these loans would ordinarily
be excluded because of their short maturities, and much of
short-term bank financing of foreigners involves exports.
The exclusion, besides permitting banks to continue freely
their role in financing U. S. exports, enables them to
maintain their flexibility in meeting normal, recurring
needs for financing international business.
Eh~erience under this exclusion will be closely observed.
In order to provide detailed information as to whether the
exclusion for commercial bank loans should be continued and,
if not, the ways in which the exclusion should be changed,
the bill provides for authority to require banks to furnish
relevant data on their loans to foreigners.

International ~lonetary Stability. The bill gives the President
authority to exempt all or a portion of new security issues of
a foreign country from tax where he determines that application of tax to such securities imperils, or threatens to
imperil, the stability of the international monetary system.
Ynis is consistent with our treaty obligations to the International Monetary Fund.
Use of this exclusion would be justified only in highly
unusual circumstances.
New issues of Canadian securities are the only ones which,
under present circumstances, it is contemplated would be excluded under this provision.

- 4 Less Developed Countries o The tax is not applicable to
the acquisition of securities issued or guaranteed by less
developed countries nor to the acquisition of securities
issued by less developed country corporations. At the
present time, it is expected that this exclusion would
~pply to the securities of all Latin P~erican countries,
African countries with the exception of South Africa, Asian
countries except for Japan and Hong Kong, and to a few other
nations outside the Sino-Soviet bloc. This exclusion is
designed to help those countries with chronic capital shortages, urgent development needs, and limited ability to borrow
on normal commercial terms. The United States has long
recognized a responsibility for assisting these nations in
their struggle to achieve improved standards of living, and
application of the tax to issues of these countries would
work against these objectives o
Direct Investments o The tax is not applicable to direct
investments in overseas subsidiaries and affiliates o Direct
investment ffi€ans the acquisition of stock or a debt obligation
in a foreign corporation or partnership by an American owning
at least 10 per cent voting control after the transaction is
completed o The exclusion of these transactions is based on
the fact that the decision to make such investments is usually
grounded in such factors as market position and long-range
profitability rather than interest-rate differential so
Foreign Corporations Controlled by ~mericans and Traded Here o
The bill treats as domestic a foreign corporation traded on
an J~erican stock exchange, if trading on U.S. exchanges provides the principal market for the stock and if more than 50
percent of the stockholder s 'l:oJere .1\mericans on July 18, 1963.
Close association of these companies with the U. So justifies
their treatment as domestic companies.
Insurance ComT)anies 'l:vith Foreign Business. The bill permits
insurance companies to acquire stock and debt obligations of
foreign issuers and obligors tax free in an amount equal to
110 percent of their reserves against foreign risks in
connection with their operations in foreign countries. This
exemption is based on the fact that U.S. insurance companies
often engage in business in foreign countries through branch

- 5 operations, and in conducting this business, they receive
premiums in a foreign currency, invest the proceeds in that
currency, and are required to pay liabilities on policies in
that currency. Since the absence of an exclusion of this
character would expose the insurance companies to a foreign
exchange risk, it was believed desirable to provide this exclusion.
Labor Unions, etc. The bill exempts acquisitions by labor
unions and certain other tax-exempt organizations which hold
dues or membership fees in foreign currency for the benefit
of local members located in foreign countries. This exclusion,
as with insurance companies, avoids exposing these organizations
in the ordinary conduct of their operations to a foreign exchange risk.
Undenrriters and Dealers. To facilitate and encourage the
placement of new foreign issues abroad, American underwriters
participating in the distribution of new foreign issues would
receive a credit or refund of the tax on any sales to foreigners. Similarly, dealers maintaining markets in foreign
bonds will be given a credit or refund on such securities
purchased from foreigners and resold to foreigners within 90
days after their purchase. A similar provision has been proposed to apply to arbitrage transactions by dealers in foreign
stocks as long as the dealer sells to a foreign person on the
same day the stock is purchased. The shorter time provision
for stocks, as compared with bonds, is a recognition of the
fact that stocks could become a tax free vehicle for speculation
under any wider exclusion.
The c~edit or refund provision for underwriters and
dealers will provide incentives to place a maximum portion
of new flotations of foreign securities in foreign hands,
and will assure potential foreign buyers that an active secondary market \vill be available in this country for such new
foreign bonds as they may purchase.
Acquisitions Required by Foreign Law. The bill provides an
exclusion from tax in the case of securities acquired by an
F.merican firm doing business in a foreign country to the
extent the acquisitions are reasonably necessary to satisfy
minimum requirements relating to holdings of foreign
securities imposed by the laws of the foreign country. This

- 6 exemption is provided because some foreign countries require
foreign businesses engaged in business locally to invest a
portion of their assets in securities of that country as a
condition to doing business there.
OTHER PROVISIONS
Liability for Tax. The tax is imposed on the U. S. person
acquiring a foreign security from a foreigner. The purchaser
who is liable for the tax must file a quarterly interest
equalization tax return listing taxable purchases and enclosing payment.
Administrative Procedure. A simple administrative procedure
has been established for determining when the tax is owed. If
the U. S. purchaser is buy~ng through a U. S. broker and his
purchase confirmation does not indicate that his purchase is
subject to the tax, the confirmation is proof of his exemption
and no return is required. If the purchase is not made through
a U. S. broker, the purchaser should receive a certificate
of American ownership from the seller if the seller is a U.S.
person. The certificate is proof of the purchaser's
exemption. Stock exchanges and over the counter markets have
developed procedures which readily permit the operation of
these provisions.
Effective Date ~nd Expiration Date. The bill generally is effective with respect to acquisitions by Americans of foreign securities from foreigners made on or after July 19, 1963. This is
one day after the date Congress received the President's special
message on the balance of payments and the public announcement of the principal features proposed by the Administration
for this bill. A special effective date of August 17, 1963,
is provided for foreign securities traded on an exchange so
as to permit uninterrupted trading in foreign securities on

- 7 the exchanges, while they were adjusting their trading rules
and procedures to the requirements of the proposed bill. The
bill also exempts certain transactions which were in an
advanced stage of negotiation on July 18, 1963, since application of the tax to these transactions might have created
substantial hardships.
The tax would expire December 31, 1965.

REVENUE EFFECT
It is estimated that this bill will result in a
revenue gain of up to $30 million on an annual basis.

For purposes of taxation the amount of discount at which Treasury
bills are originally sold by the United States is considered to be
interest. Under Sections 454 (b) and 1221 (5) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1954 the amount of discount at which bills issued
hereunder are sold is not considered to accrue until such bills are
sold, redeemed or otherwise disposed of, and such bills are excluded
from consideration as capital assets. Accordingly, the owner of
Treasury bills (other than life insurance companies) issued hereunder
need include in his income tax return only the difference between
the price paid for such bills, whether on original issue or on
subsequent purchase, and the amount actually received either upon
sale or r~demption at maturity during the taxable year for which the
return is made, as ordinary gain or loss.
Treasury Department Circular No. 418 (current revision) and this
notice prescribe the terms of the Treasury bills and govern the
conditions of their issue. Copies of the circular may be obtained frm
any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch.

The Treasury Department is instructing customs field officers
to withhold appraisement of azobisformamide from Japan pending a
determination as to whether this merchandise is being sold in the
United States at less than fair value.

Notice to this effect is

being published in the Federal Register.
Under the Antidumping Act, determination of sales in the United
states at less than fair value would require reference of the case
to the Tariff Commission, which would consider whether American industry was being injured.

Both dumping price and injury must be

shown to justify a finding of dumping under the law.
The allegation in this case was received on February

17, 1964.

The dollar value of imports received during the period from October

1963

through April

1964

was approximately $88,000.

forwarded in the special envelopes which will be supplied by Federal
Reserve Banks or Branches on application therefor.
Banking institutions generally may submit tenders for account of
cust0mers provided the names of the customers are set forth in such
tenders. Others than banking institutions will not be permitted to
submit tenders except for their own account. Tenders will be received
without deposit from incorporated banks and trust companies and from
responsible aud recognized dealers in investment securities. Tenders

- 2 -

Immediately after the closing hour, tenders will be opened at
the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, followin~ which public
announcement will be made by the Treasury Department of the amount
and price range of accepted bids. Those submitting tenders will be
advised of the acceptance or rejection thereof. The Secretary of
the Treasury expressly reserves the right to accept or reject any or
all tenders, in whole or in part, and his action in any such respect
shall be final. Subject to these reservations, noncompetitive
tenders for $200,000 or less for the additional bills dated
April 16,1964)
(91-days remaining until maturit¥ date on
October 15, 1964) and noncompetitive tenders for $100,000
or less for the 182-day bills without stated price from anyone

decimals) of accepted competitive bids for the respective issues.
Settlement for accepted tenders in accordance with the bids must be
made or completed at the Federal Reserve Banks on July 16, 1964,
in cash or other immediately available funds or in a like face
amount of Treasury bills maturing July 16, 1964.
Cash and
exchange tenders will receive equal treatment. Cash adjustments
will be made for differences between the par value of maturing
bills accepted in exchange and the issue price of the new bills.
The income derived from Treasury bills, whether interest or
gain from the sale or other disposition of the billS, does not have
any exemption, as such, and lOBS from the sale or other disposition
of Treasury bills does not have any special treatment, as such,
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954. The bills are subject to
estate, inheritance, gift or other excis~ taxes, whether Federal or
State, but are exempt from all taxation now or hereafter imposed on
the prinCipal or interest thereof by any state, or any of the
possessions of the United States, or by any local taxing authority.
For purposes of taxation the amount of discount at which Treasury
bills are originally sold by the United States is considered to be
interest. Under Sections 454 (b) and 1221 (5) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1954 the amount of discount at which bills issued
hereunder are sold is not considered to accrue until such bills are
sold, redeemed or otherwise disposed of, and such bills are excluded
from consideration as capital assets. Accordingly, the owner of
T~easury bills (other than life insurance companies) issued hereunder
need include in his income tax return only the difference between
the price paid for such bills, whether on original issue or on
subsequent purchase, and the amount actually received either upon
sale or redemption at Maturity during the taxable year for which the
return is ~de, as ordira~J ga~~ or less.
:'reasu:j' Department Circular No. 418 (r.urrent revision) and this
prescribe the terms of the Treasury bills and govern the
conjitions of their issue. Conies of the circular may be obtained from
any Peieral Reserve Bank or Branch.

APPENDIX TO PARAGRAPH NO. 9
NONRECCCNITION OF GAIN OR LOSS FeR FEDZRAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES

Where a bond is offered by the Treasury with a payment (other than the accrued interest
adjustment) to the investor.
Examples:
1.

Assume that:
(a)

The fair market value of the security offered by the Treasury on the date
the subscription is s~bm1tted is $99.50 (per $100 face value).

(b)

The paymcnt to the subscriber (discount) on account of $100 issue price
is $.80.

(c)

The amortised cost basis of the security surrendered on the books of the
subscriber is $100.50 (per $100 face value). (It is assumed that the
security surrendered was bOUGht at a price above $100.50 and that the
original premium was reduced prorata over the period from purchase date
to mnturi ty. )

The sum of the fair market value of the security offered by the Treasury and
the payment to the subscriber is $99.50 + $.80 or $100.30. This is less than
the cost basis of the iSGue surrendered, therefore, no gain is recognized.
The new issue will be entered on the books of the subscriber at a cost basis
of $99.70, the cost basiS of the issue surrendered less $.80. The gain or loss
between this cost basis and the proceeds of a subsequent sale or redemption
of the new issue will be a capital gain or loss to all investors, except those
to whom the securities are stock in trade. Under present law, if the combined
time that the security surrendere~ and the new security received in exchange
were held exceeds 6 months, the capital gain or loss is long-term, otherwise
it 1s short-term.
2.

The assumptions are the same as in example 1 except that the payment
(discount) to the subscriber is now $1.20 (per $100 face value) instead of
$.80 in example 1.
The sum of the fair market value of the new secur1ty re~eived in exchange by
the subscriber plus the $1.20 p~yment (discount) is $100.70. This exceeds
the cost basis of the security surre~dered by $.20. This excess is a
recognized gain reportable for the ~~er in which the exchange takes place.
The cain is a capital gain except to those to whom the securities are stock
in trade. Under present law, if the time the security surrendered was held
exceeds 6 months, the capital gain 1s long-term, otherwise it is short-term.
The subscriber will carry the new issue received in exchange at a cost basis
equal to the basis of the issue surrend~rcd ($100.50), less the payment
($1. 20), plus the amount of the recogni zed gain ($.20) I or ($100.50
$1.20 + $.20) $ 99.50.

3.

The assumptions are the game as in eX8JTIJ)le 1, except that the cost basiS on
the books of the subscril)er, of 'the security surrendered is $99.00 (per $100
face value) instead of $100.50 in example 1.
The sum of the fair ms.rket value of the ne'l issue received in exchange by the
subscriber plus the $.80 payment (discount) is $100.30 (as 1n example 1). This.
exceeds the $99.00 cost bU5is by more than $.80. However, the amount of the
gain reportable for the year of' the exchange is $.80, since the amount of gain
recognized cannot exce~d the amount of the payment. The nature of the
recognized gain ~nd its treatment is the same as in example 2.
In this case, the subscriber will enter the new security received ~n exchange
on his books fit $99.00, the same cost basiS as th~ ~~Q~iry surrEnde~ed.

amount at which the eligible securities surrendered by them are carried on t
books plus the amount of premium, if any, paid on the new securities, or red
by the amount of discount, if any, received by the subscriber and increased
the amount of gain, if any, which will be recognized as indicated in paragrn
12.

Computation of reinvestment rate for the extension of maturity:
A holder of the outstanding eligible securities has the option of accepting
Treasury's exchange offer or of holding them to maturity. Consequently, he
compare the interest plus (or minus) any payment, other than the adjustment
accrued interest, he will receive resulting from exchanging now with the tou
the interest on the eligible issues and what he might obtain by reinvesting t
proceeds of the eligible securities at maturity.
The income before tax for making the extension now through exchange will be t
coupon rates plus (or minus) any payment on the new issues. If a holder of t
eligible securities does not make the exchange he would receive the coupon rn
on the eligible issues to their maturity and would have to reinvest at that t
at a rate equal to that indicated in paragraph 13 below for the remaining te~
of the issues now offered, in order to equal the return (including any paymen
he would receive by accepting the exchange offer. For example, if the 3-5/8~
notes of 2/15/66 are exchanged for the 4-1/810 bonds of 11/15/73, the investor
receives 4-1/8% for the entire 9 years and 3-3/4 months plus $0.55 (per $100
value) 1r.uneciiately. If the exchange is not made, a 3-5/810 rate will be recej
until February 15, 1966, requiring the reinvestment of the proceeds of the 3·
of February 1966 at that time at a rate of at least 4.34% for the remaining 7
(lnd 9 months, all at compound interest to average out to a 4-1/810 rate for 9
and 3-3/4 months plus the $0.55 immediate payment. This minimum reinvestment
for the extension period is shovm in the table under paragraph 13. The minm
reinvestment rates for the other issues included in the exchange are also Sh01
in the table under paragraph 13.

Requirements applicable to subscriptions:
Subscriptions will be received at the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches and at
the Office of the Treasurer of the United States, Washington, D. C. 20220. Banking mstitutions generally may submit subscriptions for account of customers.
All subscribers requesting registered securities will be required to furnish
appropriate identifying numbers as required on tax returns and other documents
submitted to the Internal Revenue Service.
~nomWations

and other characteristics of new securities:

The bonds will be issued in denominations of $500, $1,000, $5,000, $10,000, $100,000
and $1,000,000 in coupon and registered forms. The bonds will be acceptable to

secure deposits of public moneys.
Recognition or nonrecognition of gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes:

A. Recognition - four eligible issues maturing August 15 and November 15, 1964
Gain or loss, if any, upon exchanges of the 3-3/4'10 notes or 510 notes due August 15,
1964, or the 3-3/4% notes or 4-7/8% notes due November 15, 1964, must be fully
recognized under the Internal Revenue Code.

B. Nonrecognition - five eligible issues maturing 1965-67
(a) General--The Secretary of the Treasury has declared pursuant to Section 1037(a)
of the Internal Revenue Code that no gain or loss shall be recognized for Federal
income tax purposes solely on account of the exchange of the 3-7/810 notes due
May 15, 1965, 3-5/8% notes due February 15, 1966, 3-3/4% bonds due May 15, 1966,
lsi notes due August 15, 1966, or the 3-5/8% notes due February 15, 1967; however,
Section 1031(b) of the Code requires recognition of any gain realized on the exchange to the extent that money (other than interest) is received by the security
holder in connection with the exchange as indicated in (b).
(b) Where the securities to be issued are offered b the Treasury with a pa ent
to the investor-- f
e falr mar et value 1 0
e securities to be issue pus
the amount paid to the investor (discount)-exceeds the cost basis to the investor
of the securities to be exchanged, such gain (but not to exceed the amount of the
payment) must be recognized and accounted for as gain for the taxable year of exchange. He will carry the new securities on his books at the same amount as he
is now carrying the old securities except that he will reduce the cost basis by
the amount of the payment and increase it by the amount of the gain recognized.
If the fair market value of the new securities plus the amount of the payment does
not exceed the cost basis of the old securities, the basis in the new securities
will be the cost basis in the old securities reduced by the amount of the payment.

(e), Where premium is paid by the subscriber--If a premium is paid by the subscrlber no gain or loss will be recognized; but his tax basis in the new securities
Will be his cost basis in the old securities increased by the amount of the
Premium.

(d) ~in to the extent not recognized under (b) (or loss), if any, upon the old
securlties surrendered in exchange will be taken into account upon the disposition
or redemption of the new securities. (See appendix to paragraph 9 attached.)

subscribers with appropriately attractive opportunities, as shown in
the attached table.
The public holds $7.6 billion of the four Augustald November 1964
maturities and about

$8.4 billion is held by official accounts. These

issues are nearer to final maturity than any issues included in
previous advance refunding offers.

Consequently their holders are not

being offered the nontaxable exchange privilege that is, as has been
customary, being made available to the other five issues eligible for
this advance exchange.
The five eligible issues maturing from May 1965 to February 1967
involve $19.0 billion of public holdings.

This total is somewhat larger

than that involved in the most recent advance refunding in January but
is smaller than the total offered in September 1963.

Official accounts

hold about $6.8 billion of the 1965-1967 maturities.
The Treasury is in a position to undertake this advance refunding
operation because its immediate cash needs are much smaller than had
been anticipated earlier.

At this time, cash borrowing is being confined

to increases in the weekly bill issue, beginning with $100 million for
the issue dated July 16.

The Treasury's cash needs over the balance of

the calendar quarter will require sufficient borrowing to perm! t. additions
to the supply of Treasury bills as necessary to counter any undue downward pressure on Treasury bill yields.

recognized under the Internal Revenue Code.
B.

Nonrecognition - five eligible issues maturing 1965-67

(a) General--The Secretary of the Treasury has declared pursuant to Section 1037(a)
of the Internal Revenue Code that no gain or loss shall be recognized for Federal
income tax purposes solely on account of the exchange of the 3-7/8% notes due
May 15, 1965, 3-5/8% notes due February 15, 1966, 3-3/4% bonds due May 15, 1966,
4% notes due August 15, 1966, or the 3-5/8% notes due February 15, 1967; however I
Section 1031(b) of the Code requires recognition of any gain realized on the exchange to the exteo.t that money (other than interest) is received by the security
holder in connection with the exchange as indicated in (b).
(b) Where the securities to be issued are offered b the Treasu
to the investor--If the fair market va ue
0
e secur t es 0
the amount paid to the investor (discount)-exceeds the cost basis to the investor
of the securities to be exchanged, such gain (but not to exceed the amount of the
payment) must be recognized and accounted for as gain for the taxable year of exchange. He will carry the new securities on his books at the same amount as he
is now carrying the old securities except that he will reduce the cost basis by
the amount of the payment and increase it by the amount of the gain recognized.
If the fair market value of the new securities plus the amount of the payment doe~
not exceed the cost basis of the old securities, the basis in the new securities
will be the cost basis in the old securities reduced by the amount of the payment.
(c) Where premium is paid by the subscriber--It' a premiulU is paid by the subscriber no gain or loss will be l~cognized; but his tax basis in the new securities
will be his cost basis in the old securities increased by the amount of the
premitun.
(d) Gain to the exteot not recognized under (b) (or 106s), i f any, upon the old
securities surrendered in exchange will be taken into account upon the disposition

books p1u.:i the amount of premium, if any, paid on the new securities, or reduced
by the amount of discount, if any, received by the subscriber and increased by
the amount of gain, if any, which will be recognized as indicated in paragraph 9B.
12.

Computation of reinvestment rate for the extension of maturity:
A holder of the outstanding eligible securities has the option of accepting the
Treasury's exchange offer or of holding them to maturity. Consequently, he can
compare the interest plus (or minus) any payment, other than the adjustment of
accrued interest, he will receive resulting from exchanging now with the total of
the interest on the eligible issues and what he might obtain by reinvesting the
proceeds of the eligible securities at maturity.
The income before tax for making the extension now through exchange will be the
coupon rates plus (or minus) any payment on the new issues. If a holder of the
eligible securities does not make the exchange he would receive the coupon rates
on the eligible issues to their maturity and would have to reinvest at that time
at a rate equal to that indicated in paragraph 13 below for the remaining terms
of the issues now offered, in order to equal the return (including any payment)
he would receive by accepting the exchange offer. For example, if the 3-5/8~
notes of 2/15/66 are exchanged for the 4-1/8~ bonds of 11/15/73, the investor
receives 4-1/8% for the entire 9 years and 3-3/4 months plus $0.55 (per $100 face
value) immediately. If the exchange is not made, a 3-S/8~ rate will be received
until February 15, 1966, requiring the reinvestment of the proceeds of the 3-5/8's
of February 1966 at that time at a rate of at least 4.34~ for the remaining 7 years
and 9 months, all at compound interest to average out to a 4-1/8~ rate for 9 years
and 3-3/4 months plus the $0.55 immediate payment. This minimum reinvestment rate
for the extension period is shov.1Il in the table under paragraph 13. The minimum
reinvestment rates for the other issues included in the exchange are also shown
in the table under paragraph 13.

APPENDIX TO PAMGMPH NO. 9
NONRECCGNrrrON OF GAIN OR LOSS FeR FEDZRAL INC01{E TAX PURPOSES

Wbere a bond is offered by the Treasury with a payment (other than the accrued interest
adjustment) to the investor.
Examples:
l. Assume that:

(a)

The fair market value of the security offered by the Treasury on the date
the subscription ill m:bm1tted is $99.50 (per $100 face value).
The payment to the subscriber (discount) on account of $100 issue price
is $.80.

(c)

The amortised cost baols of the security surrendered on the books of the
subscriber ia $100.50 (per $100 face value). (It is assumed that the
security surrendered was bought at a price above $100.50 and that the
original premium ~s reduced prorata over the period from purchase date
to mnturi ty. )

The sum of the fair market value of the security offered by the Treasury and
the payment to the subscriber is $99.50 + $.80 or $100.30. This 1s less than
the cost basis of the issuc surrendered, therefore, no gain is recognized.
The new issue will be entered on the books of the subscriber at a cost basis
of $99.70, the cost basis of the issue surrendered less $.80. The gain or loss
between this cost basis and the proceeds of a subsequent sale or redemption
of the new issue will be a capital gain or loss to all investors, except those
to whom the securities are stock in trade. Under present law, if the combined
time that the security surrenderer and the new security received in exchange
were held exceeds 6 months, the capital gain or loss is long-term, otherwise
it is short-term.
2.

The assumptions are the same as in example 1 except that the payment
(discount) to the subscriber is now $1.20 (per $100 face value) instead of
$.80 in ex~~le 1.
The sum of the fair market

valu~ of the new securjty re<'!eived in exchange by
the subscriber plus the $1.20 p~yment (discount) is $100.70. This exceeds
the cost basiS of t!1e ~;ecur.1ty SUlTC!ldered by $.20. This excess is a
recogni zed gain :rep!) ,:-tn1l 1e for the Y'~£lr in ,. .hich the exchange takes place.
The r;ain is a capital gain except to those to whom the securities are stock
in trade. Under pre.:lent 1HW, if the time the security surrendered was held
exceeds 6 months, the capital gain is long-term, otherwise it is short-tern.

The subscriber will ,~arry the new issue received in exchange at a cost basis
e9ual to the basis of the :lGsue 6urrend~rcd ($100.50), less the payment
($1.20), plus the amount of the recognized gain ($.20), or ($100.50
$1.20 + $.20) $ 99.50.
3. The assumptions arc the l;ame as In exmrrp1e I, except that the cost basiS on
the books of the subl3cri1Jer) of the security surrendered is $99.00 (per $100
face value) instead of $100.50 in example 1.
The sum of the fair mar}wt value of the neil issue received in exchange by the
subscriber plus the $.80 puyment (discount) is $100.30 (as in example 1). This
exceeds the $99.00 co:.;t bf1:.;i6 by wore than $.80. However, the amount of the
gain reportable for the year of' the exchange is $.80, since the amount of gain
recognized cannot excet:d the runowlt of the payment. The nature of the
recognized gain nnd its treatment is the same as in example 2.
In this case, the cubscriber will enter the new security rec~ived ::'n exchange
on his l.()()ks at $99.00. the same cost basis as the security surrendered.

On a Coupon issue of the same length and for the same amount invested, the return on
these bills would provide yields of 3.53%, for the 9l-day bills, and 3.66%, for the
182-day bills. Interest rates on bills are quoted in terms of bank discount with the
return related to the face amount of the bills payable at maturity rather than the
amount invested and their length in actual number of days related to a 360-day year.
In contrast, yields on certificates, notes, and bonds are computed in terms of interest on the amount invested, and relate the number of days remaining in an interest
payment period to the actual number of days in the period, with semiannual compounding
if more than one coupon period is involved.

Cash adjustments will be made

for differences between the par value of maturing bills accepted in exchange and
the issue price of the new bills.
The income derived from Treasury bills, whether interest or gain from the

B~'

or other disposition of the bills, does not have any exemption, as such, and loss
from the sale or other disposition of Treasury bills does not have any special
treatment, as such, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954.

The bills are subjec

to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, whether Federal or state, but
are exempt from all taxation now or hereafter imposed on the principal or interest
thereof by any state, or any of the possessions of the United states, or by any
local taxing authority.

For purposes of taxation the amount of discount at which

Treasury bills are originally sold by the United states is considered to be interest.

Under Sections 454 (b) and 1221 (5) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954

the amount of discount at which bills issued hereunder are sold is not considered
to accrue until such bills are sold, redeemed or otherwise disposed of, and such
bills are excluded from consideration as capital assets.

Accordingly, the owner

of Treasury bills (other than life insurance companies) issued hereunder need include in his income tax return only the difference between the price paid for such
bills,· whether on original issue or on subsequent purchase, and the amount actuall
received either upon sale or redemption at maturity during the taxable year for
which the return is made, as ordinary gain or loss.

It is urged that tenders

Banking institutions generally may submit tenders for account of customers
provided the names of the customers are set forth in such tenders.

Others than

banking institutions will not be permitted to submit tenders except for their
own account.

Tenders will be received without deposit from incorporated banks

and trust companies and from responsible and recognized dealers in investment
securities.

Tenders from others must be accompanied by payment of 2 percent of

the face amount of Treasury bills applied for, unless the tenders are accompanied
by an express guaranty of payment by an incorporated bank or trust company.
Immediately after the closing hour, tenders will be opened at the Federal
Reserve Banks and Branches, following which public announcement will be made by
the Treasury Department of the amount and price range of accepted bids.

Those

submitting tenders will be advised of the acceptance or rejection thereof.

The

182-day bills. Interest rates on bills are quoted in tenus of bank discount with
the return related to the face amount of the bills payable at maturity rather than
the amount invested and ti.eir lenr,th in actual number of days related to a 360-day
year. In contrast, yields on certificates, notes, and bonds are computed in terms
of interest on the amount invested, and relate the number of days remaining in an
interest payment period to the actual nULloor of days in the period, wi. th semiannual compounding if more ttan one coupon period is involved.

- 2 Tenders will be received at Federal Reserve Banks and Branches up
the closing hour, one-thirty p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving time, Frida
July 24, 1964.
Tenders will not be received at the Treasury Departmen
Washington.
In the case of competitive tenders the price offered must
expressed on the basis of 100, with not more than three decimals, e.g.
99.925.
Fractions may not be used. A single price must be submitted
each unit of $10,000, or even multiple thereof. A unit represents
$1,000 face amount of each issue of bills offered hereunder, as
previously described.
It is urged that tenders be made on the printed
forms and forwarded in the special envelopes which will be supplied by
Federal Reserve Banks and Branches on application therefor.
Banking institutions generally may submit tenders for account of
customers provided the names of the customers are set forth in such
tenders.
Others than banking institutions will not be permitted to
submit tenders except for their own account.
Tenders will be received
without deposit from incorporated banks and trust companies and from
responsible and recognized dealers in investment securities. Tenders
from others must be accompanied by pAyment of 2 percent of the face
amount of Treasury bills applied for, unless the tenders are
accompanied by an express guaranty of payment by an incorporated bank
or trust company.
Immediately aCter the closing hour, tenders will be opened at t~
Fedcrzil Reserve Banks and Branches, following which public announcement
will be made by the Treasury Department of the amount and price range

The income derived from Treasury bills, whether interest or gain
from the sale or other disposition of the bills, does not have any
exemption, as such, and 10ffi from the sale or other disposition of
Treasury bills does not have any special treatment, as such, under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1954. The bills are subject to estate,
inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, whether Federal or State,
but are exempt from all taxation now or hereafter imposed on the
principal or interest thereof by any State, or any of the possessions
of the United States, or by any local taxi~ authority. FQr purposes'

taxation the amount of discount at which Treasury bills are originally
sold by the United States is considered to be interest.
Under Sections 454 (b) and 1221 (5) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1954 the amount of discount at which bills issued hereunder are
sold is not considered to accrue until such bills are sold, redeemed
or otherwise disposed of, and such bills are excluded from consideration
as capital assets. Accordingly, the owner of Treasury bills (other
than life insurance companies) issued hereunder need include in his
income tax return only the difference between the price paid for such
bills, whether on original issue or on subsequent purchase, and the
amount actually received either upon sale or redemption at maturity
during the taxable year for which the return is made, as ordinary gain
or loss. Purchasers of a s trip of the bills offered hereunder should,
for tax purposes, take such bills on to their books on the basis of
their purchase price prorated to each of the ten ou ts tanding issues
using as a basis for proration the closing market prices for each of
the issues on July 29, 1964.
(Federal Reserve Banks will have
available a list of these market prices, based on the mean between the
bid and asked quota tions furnished by the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York.)

of their issue. Copies of the circular may be obtained from any

payments made for "know-how" beginning January 1, 1963.

On an

administrative basis, exemption would also apply in certain cases to
payments made prior to that date under an agreement.

Included would

be cases where the taxpayer had been previously notified by the
German tax authorities that payments under the agreement were exempt
from tax.

In such cases, however, the exemption would not apply to

STATEMENT OF THE HONORABLE DOUGLAS DILLON
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
BEFORE
SUBCOMMITTEE NO. 1
SELECT COMMITTEE ON SMALL BUSINESS
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
ON TAX-1"'XEMPT FOUNDATIONS

10 :00 A.M., EDT, JULY 21, 1964

Mr. Chairman, I apprecjate your invitation to testify before
this Subcommittee on the important question of tax-exempt charitable
foundations.

As you know, these foundations playa very significant

role in American life.

Their effect is felt in all aspects of edu-

cation, charity, sCience, medicine, the literary arts and religion.
Each year substantial sums are contributed to foundations, and the
foundations, in turn, make substantial, annual disbursements on which
many people and institutions are vitally dependent.
Because of the importance which we as a nation attach to private
philanthropy, we have promoted it by generous provisions for tax
exemption.

This privilege applies to activities of foundations as

well as to the tax deductions which are available to contributors to
foundations.

Because of this privilege it is healthy, indeed neces-

sary, that the Congress and the Administration periodically re-examine
those areas where tax exemption and tax deductions are provided.

It

is important to make sure that no one is abusing the privilege of tax
exemption, and to pu.t an end to such abuses as may be found.

For

example, study is necessary to determine whether any foundations have
been the subject of a misuse which affords unintended or undesirable
tax benefits to contributors and others; whether situations exist

- 2 where the interests of the intended beneficiaries of charitable
bounty have been unduly slighted in deference to the financial
interests of foundation contributors or those in control of foundations; whether some investment policies of certain foundations may
have been geared more to the interests of controlling private parties
than to the interests of charity; whether charity has received less
than a full dollar of value for every dollar of tax deduction and tax
exemption; and whether aUJ' foundations have engaged in business activities to the detriment of their primary charitable concern, to the
advantage of their contributors and managers, or to the disadvantage
of competing private businesss operating without tax exemption.
Both the Congress and the Treasury have studied these problem
areas in the past.

A major study resulted in important legislation

in 1950 when opportunities for self-dealing were restricted and the
unrelated business income of tax-exempt foundations was subjected to
income tax.

The Revenue Act of 1964 further restricted the oppor-

tunities for self-dealing in the case of foundations seeking to qualify
for unlimited charitable contributions, and those organizations are
now required to make substantial disbursements of their income and
contributed assets.
It is now 14 years since the major revisions of 1950 were adopted,
and it is time to see whether the legislation of chat period was adequate to the task of remedying the abuses it was designed to eliminate;
whether the legislation needs strengthening, either from a policy or
administrative point of view; and whether other abuses have developed

- 3 -

since 1950 which require correction by legislative or administrative
action.
Both the Senate Finance Corrmdttee and the House Ways and Means
Committee have requested that the Treasury Department prepare a report
on this subject, and your Subcommittee has, of course, already issued
reports calling attention to a number of possible problem areas.

The

Treasury began its current study of foundation problems in 1961.

In

its early stages the study proceeded with limitations imposed by the
priorities given to the Revenue Act of 1962 and the Revenue Act of

1964.

However, the study will be completed and our report submitted

by the end of this year.
In conjunction with the Treasury's study, in 1963 I appointed
an

Informal Advisory Committee on Foundations composed of reputable

and

responsible individuals who are associated with foundations on

a full-time, professional baSiS, lawyers and accountants who have
worked in the foundation area in their private practices, and a law
professor who has been a scholarly observer of foundations and has
written on the subject.

The Committee has met on five occasions with

Assistant Secretary Surrey, the Tax Legislative Counsel, and others
from the Treasury and Internal Revenue Service.

The purpose of these

meetings was to canvass the views of knowledgeable people on the
practices of taxpayers with respect to foundations, on the management,
investment and disbursement practices of foundations, and on various
alleged abuses and proposed remedies which have been discussed in this

- h Subcommittee's reports and elsewhere.

The Treasury found these meet-

ings valuable as a source of informed opinion, but our ultimate conclusions and recommendations will be based on all aspects of our
studies and from evidence drawn from varied sources, including, of
course, field studies by the Internal Revenue Service and data provided
by this Subcommittee.
This Subcommittee's reports contain statistics gleaned from a
study of several hundred foundations, including their asset values,
receipts, accumulations, and disbursements.

The Treasury study will

benefit from that information and from updated statistical data based
upon an extensive survey of the information returns which foundations
have filed on Form 990-A for the year 1962.

It will also benefit from

the responses to a questionnaire which we are sending to a number of
foundations requesting additional statistics and information not available from existing sources.

I would like at this point to submit for

the record a copy of this questionnaire.

Information provided by The

Foundation Directory (published by the Russell Sage Foundation) is also
being studied.

Thus, to the extent available, concrete facts and

figures will provide the background material for the Treasury's ultimate
conclusions and recommendations.
Although policy considerations will be fundamental to the Treasury's
ultimate recommendations, and to the Congress' ultimate judgments, each
policy question carries with it technical aspects which are important
to the overall statutory scheme, to equity and administrative practicability.

Treasury lawyers intend to study these technical matters in

- 5 conjunction with the Staff of the Joint Committee on Internal Revenue
Taxation so that the ultimate report will place each conclusion and
recommendation in proper perspective, indicating its linkage with related provisions of law and other relevant considerations.
As part of the Treasury's general interest in the foundation area,
and as

Mr. Caplin will tell you in greater detail, the Internal Revenue

Service has, in the last three years, stepped up its program for auditing exempt organization returns.

Whereas only approximately 2,000

exempt organization returns per year had been audited before, about
10,000 exempt organization returns were examined in fiscal year

1964.

This should bring about more widespread and fuller compliance with
existing prOvisions of law.

It will also help us to form judgments

as to which abuses can be corrected by the vigorous enforcement of
existing law and which require new legislation.

In order to provide

more meaningful information and to bring to light areas of possible
concern, the information return required of foundations was modified
recently and is undergoing continued re-evaluation.
The scope of existing law is also being determined in litigation.

Appropriate cases are being diligently litigated by the

Office of the Chief Counsel of the Internal Revenue Service and by
the Tax Division of the Justice Department.

Court decisions are

helping to mark off those areas where vigorous enforcement of exist-

ing law will carry out the Congressional objectives from those where
new action by the Congress may be necessary.

Such litigation tests

some of the judgments made in 1950 in light of the years of experience which have passed since then.

A vigorous litigation policy

- 6 is a continuous necessity if the effects of legislation are to be
reviewed on an empirical basis.

rrhis Administration has pursued such

a policy where warranted.
Both the administrative and litigation experience since 1950 will
shed light on the propriei;y of the sanctions which the law now provides in cases of abuse and outright violation of law.

The study will

examine whether, in some cases, sanctions are inadequate or misdirected,
and whether in other cases sanctions are so stringent and automatic
that courts may be reluctant to hold them applicable.
Conclusion
Privately administered philanthropy has a vital, affirmative contribution to make to a dynamic, democratic society like ours.

Ours is

a pluralistic society composed of people and groups with diverse, competing interests and ideas; it is dependent on a free market place for
these ideas and for qualified people to experiment with them.

Founda-

tions directed by private individuals, not by government, have made
great contributions in education, in science, in medicine, in fostering
an environment for the creation of ideas, for their debate, and for
experiment and innovation.

Government has contributed to this healthy

environment in many ways, not the least of which is by providing tax
benefits.

This is a cost which the Congress has always considered

worth incurring.

It is essential, however, that the cost be a measured

one - that abuses and inequitable tax advantagES claimed under the
shelter of provisions of law designed to aid philanthropy be ferreted

- 7 out and eliminated.

The 1950 amendments were expected to eliminate

abuses and undesirable private benefit cases such as those involving
self-dealing between a contributor and the foundation which he controls.

To the extent that they may not have proved fully effective,

they must be strengthened.

The study now under way will explore this

type of problem along with others.

It is our hope that we will be

able to devise recommendations which will eliminate abuses and make
for efficient, even-handed administration - this without detracting
from the policy and provisions of law which encourage society's

.

realization of the true values of modern philanthropy.
The Treasury's study is proceeding with care and impartiality.
Until it is concluded and our report is submitted to the competent
legislative committees, it would be neither desirable nor proper for
me to discuss in any detail particular issues or recommendations which
may be under consideration.

You may be sure, however, that all available

data and views, including those set forth in this Subcommittee's reports,
are being given our utmost attention.

lower than the January estimates, reducing the deficit by
$1.7 billion from the $10 billion expected at that time to the
$8.3 billion actually incurred. The actual deficit was $3.6
billion less than originally estimated for fiscal year 1964 in the
budget document of January 1963.
Detailed figures on each source of receipts and each agency's
expenditures are provided in the Treasury monthly statement of
receipts and expenditures for June, released today. The statement

1964 were $120.1 billion, $2.6 billion less than the January
estimate. Receipts from the public totaled $115.4 billion, $1.1
billion higher than estimated in January.
In terms of the national income accounts -- including only
transactions which directly affect current production and incomes,
and measuring receipts and expenditures on an accrual, rather
than a cash basis -- rough preliminary estimates indicate
expenditures of $117 billion and receipts of $114 billion,
resulting in a fiscal year 1964 deficit of $3 billion. This
compares with an estimated deficit of $5.5 billion last January.
(These estimates are subject to change when the official
Department of Commerce figures are available.)
The following table shows the results for fiscal year 1964 as
compared with the estimates in the January 1963 and January 1964
budget documents and the results for 1963.

COMPARISON OF BUDGET RESULTS WITH
JANUARY 1964 ESTIMATES
Administrative budget.--The reduction of $0.7 billion in total
administrative budget expenditures was the net result of various
decreases and increases compared with the January estimates.
By far the largest decrease was in expenditures for the
military functions of the Department of Defense (including military
foreign assistance); these expenditures were $1.1 billion below the
January estimate due primarily to a slower rate of procurement
than anticipated.
Other sizable reductions since January were:
(1)

$229 million for the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration's programs, reflecting primarily the
fact that research and development expenditures
did not increase as rapidly as had been expected;

(2)

$129 million for the Departments of Labor, State,
and Health, Education, and Welfare, combined
reflecting nonenactment or reductions in
supplemental appropriaion requests and the fact
that some proposed legislation has not yet
been enacted;

(3)

$123 million for foreign economic assistance,
largely in disbursements to Latin America under
loans already approved;

(4)

$101 million in the Department of Commerce programs,
primarily for area redevelopment and maritime
subsidies; and

(5)

$52 million, net, for the operations of the ExportImport Bank, reflecting a lower level of sales of
loans than anticipated, but also greater loan
prepayments than estimated.

Partially offsetting these and other decreases are some
increases over the January estimates, including:
$948 million
for the Department of Agriculture (primarily the Commodity
Credit Corporation), mainly because of greater than
anticipated redemptions of CCC loans held by banks and higher
fued grain and tobacco production; $137 million for the
HOUSing and Home Finance Agency, reflecting lower mortgage sales

- 4 by the Federal National Mortgage Association for its special
assistance functions; $132 million for the Veterans Administration
mainly due to more acquisitions of foreclosed properties and
lower mortgage sales in the home loan guaranty program; and
$73 million for interest on the public debt.
All other changes, both upward and downward, combined,
amount to a decrease of $315 million.
Administrative budget receipts totaled $1 billion above the
January estimate.
Individual income tax collections were
$1.1 billion over the earlier estimates, reflecting the one-month
delay in reducing the withholding tax rate and a somewhat higher
level of personal income in calendar 1963 than assumed in making
the January estimates. Corporation income tax collections were
$0.2 billion below the January estimate. The remaining increase
in total receipts was due to higher collections of estate and
gift taxes and miscellaneous receipts, partially offset by lower
than anticipated customs duty collections.
Consolidated cash statement.--The $3.7 billion reduction in
the cash deficit since the January estimate is $2.0 billion
greater than the decline in the administrative budget deficit.
This difference is accounted for by:
(1)

An increase of about $0.6 billion in the excess of
trust fund receipts over expenditures, reflecting
$0.2 billion higher total trust fund receipts
than anticipated (mainly increases for OASI, the
unemployment trust fund, Federal employees
retirement funds, and the highway trust fund,
offset only in part by a decline in the
military assistance trust fund), and $0.4 billion
lower trust fund expenctitures (mainly reductions
in ne t expend i ture s froITt depos i t funds and the
military assistance trust fund, somewhat offset
by increases in the Federal home loan banks and
other Government-sponsored enterprises, and in
the OASI trust fund); and

(2)

An increase of $1.4 billion over the estimate for
[he noncash adjustment items (interest accruals,
transactions in non-interest-bearing
notes with the International Monetary Fund, and
the clearing accounts) which are deducted to
arrive at total payments to the public.

TREASURY ANNOUNCES SECOND U. S. DRAWING
FROM THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND
Secretary of the Treasury Douglas Dillon announced
today a second drawing of foreign currencies equivalent
to $125 million by the U. S. from the International
Monetary Fund. This drawing, like the first drawing on
February 13, 1964, is being made under the standby arrangement for $500 million which was announced July 18, 1963.
After this drawing, $250 million will still remain available
under the one year standby arrangement.
The U. S. drawing is being made in Deutschemarks and
French francs in amounts equivalent to $70 million and
$55 million, respectively. The drawing will replenish
currencies previously used out of Treasury stocks to
facilitate repayments by members to the Fund and will
cover contemplated requirements for this purpose over the
next few months. By this drawing the U. S. obtains
currencies from the Fund which it can sell for dollars to
other members for their use in making repayments to the
Fund. Other members can therefore continue, in effect,
to use their dollar holdings to settle their obligations
to the Fund.

from the International Monetary Fund.
The drawing is being made
under the sumc:by agreement flJr $')()O million which was announced

The value of the curreltLic~ drawn is equivalent to

The SecretarY said that the drawing was designed to meet c1
special situation in the Fund 1 s operations anticipated last July,
and is intended to facilitate repayments by other nations to the
Fund.
The Secretary explained that foreign countries over the
past several years have been repaying more dollars to the
International ~onetary Fund than the Fund has been paying out in
new drawings.
As a result. the FundI s holdings of dollars nm"
equal the alllmnt which the United States has paid into the Fund
in dollars as part of its quota.
At this point, the Fund under
its ru les can no longer accept doll ars in r('pavmen t.
Repavmen t
must instead be either in guld or in other convertible currencies
of which the Fund holds less than the normal quota.
The United

In this way, other members '-'Ii 11 be able to continue, in

EXCERPT FROM INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND ,
PRESS RELEASE, WASHINGTON, D.C., JULY 18, 1963

"The International Monetary Fund has entered into a stand-by
arrangement that authorizes the United States to draw the
currencies of other members of the Fund up to an amount equal to
$500 million during the next 12 months. The quota of the
United States in the Fund is $4,125 million, of which $1,031
million has been paid in gold. The amount of the stand-by
arrangement represents a little less than half the amount the
United States could draw on a virtually automatic basis under
Fund prac t ice.
"The United States has not previously made use of the Fund's
resources. Drawings of U. S. dollars from the Fund by other
members have amounted to approximately $4.2 billion since the
Fund's operations began in 1947. In recent years, Fund policy
has encouraged drawings in non-dollar currencies and repayments
to the Fund in U. S. dollars. This policy has provided
assistance in financing the U. S. balance of payments deficit.
As a result of repayments, the Fund's dollar holdings are now
almost at the subscription level, which is 75 per cent of quota or
about $3 billion, and the Articles of Agreement prevent repayment
to the Fund with U. S. dollars beyond tha t leve 1. In the se
circumstances the stand-by arrangement, which is available for
general balance of payments needs, is intended to facilitate
repayments by other members. This would be accomplished through
U. S. drawings of other convertible currencies, which would be
sold to Fund members for dollars and used by them to make
repayments to the Fund."

requested is well within the U.S gold tranche (of $1,0)1.25 million) at
the IMF, the proposed arrangement doea not raise any problems 1n relation
to IMF policies on drawings.
The principal use of the stand-by arrangement foreseen by the United
States is for operations to facilitate solution of a technical problem
jointly faced by the Fund, many of its members with drawings outstanding,
and the United States. This is the problem of repurchases at the Fund by
countries which hold their official foreign ex~hange balances largely or
exclusively in U.S. dollars.
The Articles of Agreement of the Fund prevent the Fund from accepting
holdings of any currency above 75 per cent of that country's quota except
through the ini tiati ve of 1ha t count.ry to make a drawing of other currencies.
From the tiIoo the IMF first t)f'~rtn operations until quite recently, the U.S.
dollar holdings of the Fund were well helow 75 per cent of too U.S. quota,
because most drawings (as well as repurchases) at the Fund were in U.S.
dollars and cumulative rep1lrchases did not rf'ach the level of cumulative
drawings. In the past fOllr year" the pnwiou8 8i tuation for Fund hold··
ings of U. S. dollars has been substantially changed, especially since the
lMF drawi ng of the equi va 1 (mt of $1, ') billion by the United Kingdom in
August-September 1961. nr"t, t.he volume of repurchases ::tt the Fund, while
never reaching the cumula.Uv8 a.mount of drawings, has bee!) much higher since
195f3 than at any time before; a relativAly large proportion of these hiGher
repurchases has continued to be mrtdo with U.S. dollars. Second, with the
ar::hievement of convertibili ty by the maln European currencies, a significant portion of new drawings from the Fund have utilized these currencies.
As a result, the Fund's holdings of U.S. dollars have been fairly close to
75 per cent of the IJ. S. quota sincn July 1 C)62 and since the end of April
196) those holdinRs havo ~!Bn practically at 75 per cent.
0

For countries holr11ng offi~i:J.l P!sprves in U.S. dollars, t.hls sit.\];tlion presents a difficulty when they ",r\.sh t.o m::lke repurchases at the Fund.
T~ Fund's ability to accept U.S. dollars in repurchase is practically nil
owing to the 75 per cent of quota cOn:'ltraint. Countries wishing to n~pay
t.hP. Fund C::ln offer other convcrtib}p cllrrenci88 or gold to dischargA their
rf~PlJrchase obI igations.
It ie very doubtful that a net. transfer of Gold
to U,,' Fund 1s desirable at present from the viewpoint of the international
paymentr. mechanism as a whole. A130~ in order to offer other convertihle
currencies in repurchase, too countries concerned often need to undert.ake
i)r1mlnl~tratlvf-l arrangements that are unusual and unfamiliar to them, and
3l1ch currencies must usually be purchased (against dollars) at prices
a 00 If.) pa r •
( OVER)

-2Under the stand-by arrangement, the United States will be able to
make available to countries wishing to ~ke repurchases from the Fund,
using dollars, a simple and effective facility for obtaining other convertible currencies which the Fund can a:cept in repurchase. In outline, the mechanism will be as follows:
1.

learning that a given Flmd member wishes to make a
repurchase, would otherwise use U.S. dollars for the
purpose, and would like to avail itself of this facility,
the Fund staff will contact tn8 U.S. authorities.

2.

For value on the date of the repurchase transaction, the
U. S. will draw other convert~bJe currencies (pursuant to
appropriate consultations thrl)egh the Fund) equivalent to
the value of the repurchase.

3.

The U.S. will sell for U.S. dollars, the currencies drawn
from the Fund to the repurch~:)ing member, which will execute
the repurchase by transfe!"ring them to the Fund and taking
back the appropriate amount of lts own currency. The sale
of other convertible currencjps by the U.S. to the repurchasing member is envisaged a~ b€i~b at par.

4.

The net re~ult of the tr2nSd(;tion will be that the Fund's
holdings of the other convert" tIe currencies drawn by the
U.S. will be the "arne as hefore, sinC'e they will leave the
Fund and immediately be retlJrned by the repurchasing member.
The Fund S holdings of th" rqnrchasing member's currency
will be reduced and those holdings of U.S. dollars will be
increased by the amOlmt of U.e tr~msaction.

~pon

t

The stand-by amount of $500 rn.llL()n '.S calculated to be sufficient
to cover presently foreseeable repurcntiSE>S, using U.S. dollars as the
starting point, over the coming year. 4t the same time, the mechanism
described above is to he only a facility to be available to interested
Fund members at their option. Countrie3 will, of course, continue to
have the option, if they choose, to pt.r~b::lse gold from the United States
for making rf~Durchases from the Fund c,r for any other monetary purpose.
Countries ~ll also continue to have the 0ption of obtaining other convertible cun'~ncies for making rep\irch,,'3PJ from the Fund by purchasing
those currencies in the market against dollars or through arrangements
wi th the central banks concernrd. \ii th 'jr wi ~,hout the assistance of the

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

TREASURY OFFERS $1 BILLION ONE-YEAR BILLS
The Treasury Department, by this public notice, invites tenders
for $1,000,000,000, or thereabouts, of 36l-day Treasury bills, to be
issued on a discount basis under competitive and noncompetitive
bidding as hereinafter provided. The bills of this series will be
dated August 4, 1964, and will mature July 31, 1965, when the face
amount will be payable without interest. They will be issued in
bearer form only, and in denominations of $1,000, $5,000, $10,000,
$50,000, $100,000, $500,000 and $1,000,000 (maturity value).
Tenders will be received at Federal Reserve Banks and Branches
up to the closing hour, one-thirty p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving
time, Thursday, July 30, 1964. Tenders will not be received at the
Treasury Department, Washington. Each tender must be for an even
multiple of $1,000, and in the case of competitive tenders the price
offered must be expressed on the basis of 100, with not more than
three decimals, e. g., 99.925. Fractions may not be used.
(Notwithstanding the fact that these bills will run for 361 days, the
discount rate will be computed on a bank discount basis of 360 days,
as is currently the practice on all issues of Treasury bills.)
It is urged that tenders be made on the printed forms and forwarded
in the special envelopes which will be supplied by Federal Reserve
Banks or Branches on application therefor.
Banking institutions generally may submit tenders for account of
customers provided the names of the customers are set forth in such
tenders. Others than banking institutions will not be permitted to
submit tenders except for their own account. Tenders will be
received without deposit from incorporated banks and trust companies
and from responsible and recognized dealers in investment securities.
Tenders from others must be accompanied by payment of 2 percent of
the face amount of Treasury bills applied for, unless the tenders are
accompanied by an express guaranty of payment by an incorporated bank
or trust company.
Immediately after the closing hour, tenders will be opened at the
~deral Reserve Banks and Branches, following which public announcement
will be made by the Treasury Department of the amount and price range
of accepted bids. Those submitting tenders will be advised of the
acceptance or rejection thereof, The Secretary of the Treasury
D-1293

~pressly reserves the ~ight to accept or reject any or all tenders,
in vJhole ur in part, and hlS action in any such respect shall be
final.
Subject to these reservations, noncompetitive tenders for
$200,000 or less without stated price from anyone bidder will be
accepted in full at the average price (in three decimals) of accepted
competitive bids.
Payment of accepted tenders at the prices offered
must be made or completed at the Federal Reserve Bank in cash or
other immediately available funds on August 4, 1964.

The income derived from Treasury bills, whether interest or gain
from the sale or other disposition of the bills, does not have any
exemption, as such, and loss from the sale or other disposition of
Treasury bills does not have any special treatment, as such, under
the Internal Revenue Code of 1954. The bills are subject to estate,
inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, whether Federal or State,
but are exempt from all taxation now or hereafter imposed on the
principal or interest thereof by any State, or any of the possessions
of the United States, or by any local taxing authority.
For purposes
of taxation the amount of discount at which Treasury bills are
originally sold by the United States is considered to be interest.
Under Sections 454 (b) and 1221 (5) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1954 the amount of discount at which bills issued hereunder are sold
is not considired to accrue until such bills are sold, redeemed or
otherwise disposed of, and such bills are excluded from consideration
as capital assets. Accordingly, the owner of Treasury bills (other
than life insurance companies) issued hereunder need include in his
income tax return only the difference between the price paid for such
bills, whether on original issue or on subsequent purchase, and the
amount actually received either upon sale or redemption at maturity
during the taxable year for which the return is made, as ordinary
gain or loss.
Treasury Department Circular No. 418 (current revision) and this
notice, prescribe the terms of the Treasury bills and govern the
conditions of their issue.
Copies of the circular may be obtained
from any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch.

On a coupon issue of the same length as the average for the bills and for the same
amount invested, the return on these bills would provide a yield of 3.59%. Interest
rates on bills are quoted in terms of bank discount with the return related to the
face amount of the bills payable at maturity rather than the amount invested and
tteir len~tIl in actual nurr.ber of days related to a 360-daJ year. Ir. contrast, yields
on certiflcates, notes J and bonds are computed in terms of interest on tne amount
invested, and relate the number of days remaining in an interest ~aym~nt period to
the actual number of days in the period, with semiannual compounding lf more than one
coupon period is involved.

!I On a coupon issue of the same length and for the same anlOunt invested, the return on
these bills would provide a yield of 3.80%. Interest rates on bills are quoted in
terms of bank discount with the return related to the face amount of the bills payable
at maturity rather than the amount invested and their length in actual number of days
related to a 360-day year. In contrast, yields on certificates, notes, and bonds are
computed in terms of interest on the amount invested, and relate the n~~ber of days
remaining in an interest payment period to the actual number of days in the period,
with semiannual compounding if more than one coupon period is involved.
