To all Member and Nonmember Banks

In our Circular No. 3423, dated March 9, 1949, we advised you that we had made
certain temporary exceptions to the general terms and conditions of our Operating
Circular No. 3, Revised July 22, 1948, entitled “ Paper Currency and Coin” , in view
of the embargo imposed by the Railway Express Agency, Inc., on all express ship­
ments consigned to and from New York City and vicinity.
The Railway Express Agency, Inc. has now informed us that, effective today,
express service will again be available for sending currency and coin to us. Accord­
ingly, you should now resume sending to us currency in the $1 denomination totaling
over $500, and coin, by express, charges collect, pursuant to the provisions of para­
graphs 9 and 13 of our Operating Circular No. 3.
