October 20> 1950

Dear Governor Meyer:
I regret that it is necessary to revise the figures
which we have sent to you covering the amount of short-term
foreign funds held in New York for the end of August*

One of

the reporting institutions inadvertently reported its figures
incorrectly for that date and has now been good enough to send
us a revised report*

I am enclosing new figures for August 30

and a revised statement for September 30, showing the corrected
changes between August 30 and September 30*
You will observe that the corrected figures for the
total amount show a reduction of $29,746,000 instead of $76,746,000,
from July 31, 1930 to August 30, 1950, and a decrease of $1,928,000
instead of an increase of $45,072,000, from ■‘higust 30, 1950 to

Faithfully yours

Honorable Eugene Meyer,
Governor, Federal Reser
Washington, D. C.

D e a r G o v e r n o r Meyer:
I h a v e y o u r l e t t e r of S e p t e m b e r 17 c oncerning the
amou n t of s h o r t - t e r m f o r e i g n funds in N e w Y o r k for the end
of August.
Our f irst c o m p i l a t i o n of t hese figures was in May
of last y e a r whe n the t otal was $ 2 ,526,000,000.

S ince that

time the h i g h point was r e a c h e d at the end of O c t o b e r when
the t otal was $2,871 , 0 0 0 , 0 0 0 .

F o l l o w i n g the crash in the

se curity m a r k e t s the amount of these f unds in N e w Y o r k d e ­
c r e a s e d s u b s t a n t i a l l y for several months,

reaching a low

fi g u r e of $ 2 , 4 2 1 , 0 0 0 , 0 0 0 at the end of last March.

From

that da t e the f i g u r e has f l u c t u a t e d a r o u n d $ 2 , 5 0 0 , 0 0 0 , 0 0 0
wi t h no appa r e n t

si g n i ficance to the m o v e m e n t s one w ay or

the other.
I should expect to find a s e asonal d e c l i n e in the
amou n t of s h o r t - t e r m f o r e i g n funds in N e w Y o r k d u r i n g the
au t u m n w h e n our exports are heavier,

but as y o u w i l l observe,

we h a v e n ot been compiling the figures long enough to obtain
any v e r i f i c a t i o n of what m i g h t be e x p e c t e d to be the normal
trend.

I a m enclosing a copy of a chart w h i c h we keep of

these figures.
W i t h w a r m regards and best washes,
Faithfully/yours,
