Charge for printing Federal
Reserve notes.

Dear Sir:
Under date of August 13 the Bureau of Engraving and Printing
advised the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System that
effective July 1, 1936 the charge for printing Federal Reserve
notes was increased from $86 to $93.50 for 1,000 sheets of 12
notes each.
This increase in printing costs, it is stated, is due to an
increase from 15 ta 26 days in annual leave and to tho extension
of the 40-hour week and of sick leave at the rate of 1-1/4 days
a month to all employees of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.
Very truly yours,

Secretary.
