History: Department of the Treasury established by an act of September 2, 1789 (1 Stat. 65), with subordinate Office of the Register of the Treasury (SEE 53.4) serving as accounting agency for public funds. Secretary of the Treasury acquired authority, by an act of July 17, 1861 (12 Stat. 259), to borrow money on the credit of the United States through the issuance of United States securities.
Internal organization (SEE 53.5), established in the Office of the Secretary to perform administrative debt management functions formerly vested in the Office of the Register, had become known as Division of Loans by 1868, with legislative recognition, March 1875, and redesignation as Division of Loans and Currency, August 1876. Division of Loans and Currency and Office of the Register removed from immediate jurisdiction of Secretary and assigned, by Secretarial order, November 11, 1919, to newly established Office of the Commissioner of the Public Debt.
Subsequently assigned to OCPD were the Savings Division of the defunct War Loan Organization (SEE 53.6), 1919; the Division of Public Debt Accounts and Audit, created by administrative order January 1920, and recognized legislatively in the general appropriation act (41 Stat. 1267), March 3, 1921; and the Division of Paper Custody, established from a section of the same name in the Division of Loans and Currency, August 24, 1921.
OCPD and its subordinate divisions were collectively designated Public Debt Service by order of the Secretary of the Treasury, November 12, 1919, with legislative recognition in the Deficiency Appropriation Act (42 Stat. 36), June 16, 1921. Public Debt Service placed under the Office of the Fiscal Assistant Secretary by Department Circular 244, June 21, 1923. Division of Savings Bonds, closely allied to but not part of the Public Debt Service, was established under the Office of the Fiscal Assistant Secretary by Treasury Department Order 13, March 4, 1936. By Reorganization Plan No. III of 1940, the Public Debt Service was consolidated with the Division of Savings Bonds to form the Bureau of the Public Debt, which, by the same authority, was collectively designated, with the Office of the Fiscal Assistant Secretary and the newly created Bureau of Accounts, as the Fiscal Service.
