(N otw ithstanding th e fact that the one-year bills will run for 366-days, the discount rate w ill be com puted on a bank discount basis of 360-days, as is currently the practice on all issues of Treasury bills.) It is urged that tenders be m ade on the printed forms and forwarded in th e special envelopes which w ill be supplied by Federal R eserve Banks or Branches on application therefor.

T hose subm itting tenders w ill be advised of the acceptance or rejection thereof. T h e Secretary of the Treasury expressly reserves the right to accept or reject any or all tenders, in w hole or in part, and his action in any such respect shall be final. Subject to these reservations, noncom petitive tenders for each issue for $200,000 or less w ithout stated price from any one bidder w ill be accepted in full at the average price (in three decim als) of accepted com petitive bids for the respective issues. Settlem ent for accepted tenders in accordance with the bids m ust be m ade or com pleted at the Federal R eserve B ank on N ovem ber 30, 1967, in cash or other im m ediately available funds or in a like face am ount of Treasury bills maturing N ovem ber 30, 1967.

Cash adjustm ents w ill be m ade for differences betw een the par value of m aturing bills accepted in exchange and the issue price of the new bills. T h e incom e derived from Treasury bills, whether interest or gain from th e sale or other disposition o f the bills, does not have any exem ption, as such, and loss from the sale or other disposition of Treasury bills does not have any special treatm ent, as such, under the Internal R evenue Code of 1954. T h e bills are subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, whether Federal or State, but are exem pt from all taxation now or hereafter im posed on th e principal or interest thereof by any State, or any of the possessions of the U n ited States, or by any local taxing authority. For purposes of taxation the am ount of discount at which Treasury bills are originally sold by the U n ited States is considered to be interest. Under Sections 454 ( b ) and 1221 ( 5 ) of the Internal R evenue Code of 1954 the am ount of discount at which bills issued hereunder are sold is not considered to accrue until such bills are sold, redeem ed or otherwise disposed of, and such bills are excluded from consideration as capital assets. Accordingly, the owner of Treasury bills (other than life insurance com panies) issued hereunder need include in his incom e tax return only the difference betw een the price paid for such hills, whether on original issue or on subsequent purchase, and the am ount actually received either upon sale or redem ption at m aturity during th e taxable year for which the return is made, as ordinary gain or loss. Treasury D epartm ent Circular N o. 418 (current revision) and this notice, prescribe the term s o f th e Treasury bills and govern the conditions of their issue. Copies o f the circular m ay be obtained from any Federal R eserve B ank or Branch.
