6 , to show that our H ead Office w ill give credit fo r items payable in—

Louisville one calendar day, instead o f two, after receipt;

Los Angeles and San Francisco two business days, instead o f two calendar days, after
receipt.

and San Francisco two business days, instead o f two calendar days, after receipt.
O p era tin g C ircu la r N o. 7, “ Saturday C losing,” has been revised by including in the list

The effect is to indicate that Saturday does n ot constitute a business day in determining the
