Sec. 74a. Permanent loan of funds by Board of Trustees to
Treasury; semiannual interest payments to Board
The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized and directed to receive
into the Treasury from time to time as a permanent loan by the Board of
Trustees of the National Gallery of Art to the United States sums in
cash of not to exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate, and to pay interest
on the principal amount of such loan at a rate which is the higher of
the rate of 4 per centum per annum or a rate which is .25 percentage
points less than a rate determined by the Secretary of the Treasury,
taking into consideration the current average market yield on
outstanding long-term marketable obligations of the United States,
adjusted to the nearest one-eighth of 1 per centum, payable
semiannually. Such interest is permanently appropriated for payment to
the Board of Trustees of the National Gallery of Art.
