Following is the text of a notice issued yesterday by the Treasury Department:
The Department of the Treasury, by this public notice, invites
tenders for $2,591 million, or thereabouts, of 364-day Treasury bills
to be dated June 29, 1976, and to mature June 28, 1977 (CUSIP
No. 912793 D60). The bills will be issued for cash and in exchange
for Treasury bills maturing June 29, 1976.
This issue will not provide new money for the Treasury as the
maturing issue is outstanding in the amount of $2,591 million, of
which $1,341 million is held by the public and $1,250 million is held
by Government accounts and the Federal Reserve Banks for them­
selves and as agents of foreign and international monetary authori­
ties. Additional amounts of the bills may be issued to Federal
Reserve Banks as agents of foreign and international monetary
authorities. Tenders from Government accounts and the Federal
Reserve Banks for themselves and as agents of foreign and inter­
national monetary authorities will be accepted at the average price
of accepted tenders.
The bills will be issued on a discount basis under competitive
and noncompetitive bidding as hereinafter provided, and at maturity
their face amount will be payable without interest. They will be
issued in bearer form in denominations of $10,000, $15,000, $50,000,
$100,000, $500,000 and $1,000,000 (maturity value) and in bookentry form to designated bidders.
Tenders will be received at Federal Reserve Banks and Branches
up to the closing hour, one-thirty p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving
time, Wednesday, June 23, 1976. Tenders will not be received at
the Treasury Department, Washington. Each tender must be for
a minimum of $10,000. Tenders over $10,000 must be in multiples
of $5,000. In the case of competitive tenders the price offered
must be expressed on the basis of 100, with not more than three
decimals, e.g., 99.925. Fractions may not be used. It is urged that
tenders be made on the printed forms and forwarded in the special
envelopes which will be supplied by Federal Reserve Banks or
Branches on application therefor.
Banking institutions and dealers who make primary markets
in Government securities and report daily to the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York their positions with respect to Government
securities and borrowings thereon may submit tenders for account
of customers, provided the names of the customers are set forth
in such tenders. Others will not be permitted to submit tenders

except for their own account. Tenders will be received without
deposit from incorporated banks and trust companies and from
responsible and recognized dealers in investment securities. Tenders
from others must be accompanied by payment of 2 percent of the
face amount of Treasury bills applied for, unless the tenders are
accompanied by an express guaranty of payment by an incorporated
bank or trust company.
Immediately after the closing hour, tenders will be opened at
the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, following which public
announcement will be made by the Treasury Department of the
amount and price range of accepted bids. Only those submitting
competitive tenders will be advised of the acceptance or rejection
thereof. The Secretary of the Treasury expressly reserves the
right to accept or reject any or all tenders, in whole or in part,
and his action in any such respect shall be Anal. Subject to these
reservations, noncompetitive tenders for $500,000 or less without
stated price from any one bidder will be accepted in full at the
average price (in three decimals) of accepted competitive bids.
Settlement for accepted tenders in accordance with the bids must
be made or completed at the Federal Reserve Bank on June 29,
1976, in cash or other immediately available funds or in a like
face amount of Treasury bills maturing June 29, 1976. Cash
and exchange tenders will receive equal treatment. Cash adjust­
ments will be made for differences between the par value of maturing
bills accepted in exchange and the issue price of the new bills.
Under Sections 454(b) and 1221(5) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1954, the amount of discount at which bills issued here­
under are sold is considered to accrue when the bills are sold, re­
deemed or otherwise disposed of, and the bills are excluded from
consideration as capital assets. Accordingly, the owner of Treasury
bills (other than life insurance companies) issued hereunder must
include in his income tax return, as ordinary gain or loss, the dif­
ference between the price paid for the bills, whether on original
issue or on subsequent purchase, and the amount actually received
either upon sale or redemption at maturity during the taxable year
for which the return is made.
Treasury Department Circular No. 418 (current revision) and
this notice prescibe the terms of the Treasury bills and govern
the conditions of their issue. Copies of the circular may be ob­
tained from any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch.

This Bank will receive tenders up to 1 :30 p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving time, Wednesday, June 23, 1976 at the
Securities Department of its Head Office and at its Buffalo Branch. Please use the form on the reverse side of
this notice to submit a tender and return it in the enclosed envelope marked "Tender for Treasury Bills." Tenders not
requiring a deposit may be submitted by telegraph, subject to written confirmation; no tenders may be submitted by
telephone. PaytM^wf ^or
