FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF DALLAS F I S C A L A G E N T O F T H E U N IT E D S T A T E S Dallas, Texas, April 8, 1949 OPPORTUNITY DRIVE To Qualified Issuing Agents in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District: The Opportunity Drive for the sale of United States Savings Bonds will start on May 16 and will close on July 18, 1949. In anticipation of increased sales, it is suggested that issuing agents check their present stocks of bonds, estimate their needs in advance as far as practi cable, and file requisitions for additional stock at this time to insure an adequate supply of all denominations. As the bonds are received from the Treasury in lots of 250 pieces to the package, it will assist us in making shipment if requi sitions for bonds are made in multiples of 250 where the need approximates or exceeds that figure. All issuing agents, except those issuing bonds exclusively to persons en rolled in payroll allotment plans, are requested to report and remit for sales not less frequently than once a week, during the drive. Agents issuing bonds exclusively to persons under payroll allotment plans, should report as frequently as possible. More frequent reporting by all agents will facilitate the compilation of accurate and up-to-date sales reports to the State Savings Bonds Divisions, which will disseminate such information among the County Chairmen through out the Eleventh Federal Reserve District. This bank and its branches will endeavor to render prompt service at all times to issuing agents and to assist them in every way possible.
