-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of the Treasury is announcing two schedules of

charged for the issuance of definitive securities and the fees for the 
annual maintenance of certain TREASURY DIRECT securities accounts.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 14, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Maureen Parker, Director, Division of Securities Systems, Bureau of the 
Public Debt, Parkersburg, West Virginia, 26106-1328, (304) 480-7761.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    On January 23, 1995, the Department of the Treasury established fee 
schedules for the issuance of definitive securities and the maintenance 
of certain TREASURY DIRECT securities accounts.
    The Treasury has decided that the fees for the issuance of 
definitive securities and the maintenance of certain TREASURY DIRECT 
Securities Accounts should remain unchanged from the amounts currently 
in effect.

Schedule of Fees for Definitive Securities

    The fee schedule for the issuance of a definitive security is as 
follows: a fee of $50 will be charged for each definitive security 
issued on a transfer, reissue, exchange or withdrawal from book-entry 
form, or as a result of the granting of relief on account of loss, 
theft, destruction, mutilation or defacement. Payment of the fee must 
accompany the request for the issues of securities in physical form. If 
a request results in the issuance of more than one security, the amount 
of the fee is arrived at by multiplying the number of pieces requested 
by $50. The fee announced above shall remain in effect until further 
notice.

Schedule of Fees for TREASURY DIRECT Securities Accounts

    The fee schedule for TREASURY DIRECT securities accounts is as 
follows: each TREASURY DIRECT securities account holding Treasury 
bonds, notes and bills pursuant to 31 CFR part 357 that exceeds 
$100,000 in par amount as of a selected date in May of each year will 
be charged an annual maintenance fee in the amount of $25. This fee 
shall remain in effect until further notice. Each account holder will 
be individually billed.

    Dated: May 14, 1998.
Van Zeck,
Commissioner of the Public Debt.
