Additional copies of these pages will be forwarded to you
under separate cover.
On April lb., 1939, copies of tentatively revised pages of
the Manual were sent to all Reserve banks with the request that they
have the revisions reviewed and furnish the Board with any changes
they wished to suggest therein. All changes suggested by the Reserve
banks have been given careful consideration, and in large part they
have been incorporated in the final instructions.
The only major change in the instructions relates to the
accrual at least as of each Wednesday and the last day of each month
of salaries and Retirement System contributions for current service,
or of total estimated current expenses. Further consideration is
being given to the instructions relating to reserves for losses on industrial advances and cornrrdtments, If it is found desirable to make
any changes in such instructions you will be advised thereof promptly.
Very t.

Enclosures

Assistant Secretary.
