DATE — FRIDAY, NOVEMBER

8, 1974

Your attention is invited to the following statement giving details of two issues of Treasury bills:
The Department of the Treasury, by this public notice, invites tenders for two series of Treasury bills to the aggregate
amount of $4,900,000,000, or thereabouts, to be issued November 14, 1974, as follows:
91-DAY BILLS (to maturity date) in the amount of $2,800,000,000, or thereabouts, representing an additional
amount of bills dated August 15, 1974, and to mature February 13, 1975 (CUSIP No. 912793 VV5), originally
issued in the amount of $2,004,240,000, the additional and original bills to be freely interchangeable.
182-DAY BILLS for $2,100,000,000, or thereabouts, to be dated November 14, 1974, and to mature May 15, 1975
(CUSIP No. 912793 WJ1).
The bills will be issued for cash and in exchange for Treasury bills maturing November 14, 1974, outstanding in the
amount of $4,706,875,000, of which Government accounts and Federal Reserve Banks, for themselves and as agents of foreign
and international monetary authorities, presently hold $2,765,627,000. These accounts may exchange bills they hold for the
bills now being offered at the average prices of accepted tenders.
The bills will be issued on a discount basis under competitive and noncompetitive bidding, 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 book-entry form to designated bidders.
Tenders will be received at Federal Reserve Banks and Branches up to one-thirty p.m., Eastern Standard Time,
Friday, November 8, 1974. Tenders will not be received at the Department of the Treasury, 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.
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 bills applied for, unless the tenders are accompanied by an express guaranty of
payment by an incorporated bank or trust company.
Public announcement will be made by the Department of the Treasury of the amount and price range of accepted bids.
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
final. Subject to these reservations, noncompetitive tenders for each issue for $200,000 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 for the respective
issues. Settlement for accepted tenders in accordance with the bids must be made or completed at the Federal Reserve Bank
or Branch on November 14, 1974, in cash or other immediately available funds or in a like face amount of Treasury bills matur­
ing November 14, 1974. Cash and exchange tenders will receive equal treatment. Cash adjustments 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 hereunder are sold is considered to accrue when the bills are sold, redeemed or otherwise disposed of, and the bills are
excluded from consideration as capital assets. Accordingly, the owner of bills (other than life insurance companies) issued
hereunder must include in his Federal income tax return, as ordinary gain or loss, the difference 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.
Department of the Treasury Circular No. 418 (current revision) and this notice, prescribe the terms of the Treasury Bills
and govern the conditions of their issue. Copies of the circular may be obtained from any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch.

In accordance with the above announcement, tenders will be received at this biank and its branches at El Paso,
Houston and San Antonio up to twelve-thirty p.m., Central Standard Time, Friday, November 8, 1974. Tenders may
not be entered by telephone.
