Dec. 1, I 9.L7 ,

Considerable increases during the week in discount operations of the
Eastern banks and large additions by all the banks to the volume of outstanding
Federal Reserve note circulation are shown in the Federal Beserve Board5s weekly
bank statement issued as at close of business on November 30 > 1917 *
The Hew York Bank reports an increase of 102,6 millions in discounted
paper, largely collateral notes, on hand. Its total investments,.owing to liqui­
dation of U. S, certificates show an increase of but 91*6 millions. During the
weak reserve deposits at the bank increased by 39*1 millions, while the ba.nk*s
note circulation went up 11.2 millions. Most of the ’western banks report consider­
able liquidation of discounts and substantial gains in reserve. Aggregate re­
serves show an increase for the week of 17,5 millions, mostly in gold. The banks1
deposit reserve owing to the relatively large increase in net deposits shows a
reduction from 66.1 to 62. 8^ while their note reserve owing to the large pro­
portion of notes issued against gold increased from 62»6 to 63 «S per cent,;
About JO per cent of the discounted paper held by the banks is repre­
sented by collateral notes which increased during the week from 449.5 to 526.5
millions. Of theod notes by far the larger portion is secured by Liberty bonds
and Certificate
dness, the amount of notes thus secured showing an
increase from 365*4 to 405«o millions, largely at the New York Bank. Acceptances
on hand show a reduction of 4*5 millions, Boston, Philadelphia and Cleveland re-porting the largest decreases under this head.
Chicago reports the sale of 7 millions of Liberty bonds held temporarily
pending adjustment of the bank's Liberty Loan account, while New, York liquidated
about 17 millions of certificates of indebtedness. The total of Government securi­
ties held by the barks shows a decrease for the week of 2 2 ,f millions. Aggregate
earning assets for the first time are shown in excess of 1 ' billion dollars and
constitute at present 1536 per cent of the banks’ paid-in capital, compared with
14-53 per cent the week before. Of the total, 71*9 Pa:r cent is represents:! by
discounts, 19*5 P er cent by acceptances, 3 .5 per cent by U. S. securities and 0,1
per cent by warrants.
.
Payment by newly admitted members for Federal Reserve stock is iepcrted.
by nearly all Reserve banks. An increase of $1,115,000 out of a total of
$1,364,000 is shown for the Cleveland Bank and is due to the admission of the
Union Trust Company of Pittsburgh.
Government deposits show an increase of 24,5 millions, while member
banks' reserve deposits gained about 62.8 millions, the larger gain at the New
York Bank being offset in part by considerable net withdrawals of deposits from
the Boston, Philadelphia and Cleveland banks.
Federal Reserve Agents report a total of $1,126,345,000 of Federal
Reserve notes outstanding, an increase of about 24 millions for the week. Against
the total issued they hold at present $490,932,000 of paper and $661,32.4,000 of
gold. All the banks report increases in their Federal Reserve note circulation*
the total $1,056,933,000 indicating an increase of $41,091*000 for the week under
review.

Li<tuidatIon in some volume of discounts and acceptances,
coujled with considerable decrease* in i»t deposits is indicated in the
Federal Reserve Board's weekly bank stats&ent issued as at close of busi­
ness December 7, 1917* Federal B*serva notes in circulation show an in­
crease for the week of 53*6 millioas, while combined gold reserves indicate
a gain of about 10 millions largely through the exchange of Federal Reserve
notes for gold* The reserve situation Of the banks as gauged by the ratio
of cash reserve to nat deposits shows an improvement for the week frobi 6£.£
66.6
per cent, while the note reserve shows a slight decline froa 63*?
to 63*2 per cent, The ratio of total cash reserves to net deposit and Fed"
oral Beserve note liabilities combined shows a rise for the week fran 63*2
i to 65 .1 per cent.
— X)taTng"the week the Resorts banks redeemed the outstanding balancer
Of the 300 millions of U. S. Certificates of Indebtedness issued under date o£
September 17- The result is seen in a considerable reduction of the collater­
al loan account, largely at the New York Sank, The latter reports a gain of
about ^5 millions in reserve, a redaction of 103-2 taillions in discounts and
an even larger raduct *m in collateral notes secured by Liberty Loan bonds
and certificates,', N#fc 4&po<iits:.\at the bank decreased 64,2 millions while its
dote circulation went up by 15*7 millions* Boston reports an increase of 35-3
millions in discounts on hand, largely customer*1 paper secured by Liberty
bonds and certificates, and a decrease of about 13 millions in acceptances.s
Its reserves declined about 6.5 millions, while its net deposits increased
about 13»1 millions. Cleveland reports a reduction of 22*9 millions in re­
serve following the withdrawal of about 16.S millions of Government deposits
and a change of an adverse balance of 20.6 millions in account with other
FecL3r.il Reserve banks to a favorable balance of 5*7 millions. Reductions in
the reserves of other banks are due to withdrawals of GoyeJtSfaeiit d^posi££ ifiii
to heavy transfers of credit balances betweenbanks on th<* books of the Gold
Settlement Fund.
