STATEMENT IDE THE PRESS .
May 2k, 19 19 .
Reduction of over 100 millions in the holdings of war paper primarily the
result of the first payment on account of Victory notes, also considerable decreases
in Government deposits and in Federal Reserve note circulation, are indicated by
the Federal Reserve Board's weekly bank statement issued as at close of business on
May 2 3 , 19 19 .
As

against the large reduction in war paper, the banks shdw a slight increase

in other discounts on hand and a gain of S.* 5 millions in their acceptance holdings.
On the other hand, certificate holdings fell off k .J millions, the larger decrease
in this item reported by the New York bank being offset in part by fresh investments
in 2 per cent certificates shown for ^ other banks.
Members* reserve deposits declined 15-8 millions, while net deposits are given
as 67 .S millions less than the week before.

The banks* capital account shows a gain

of $ 1 5 6 ,000 , the banks at Philadelphia, Cleveland, St. Louis and San Francisco
reporting substantial additions to their paid-in capital.

Federal Reserve notes in

circulation declined 27*8 millions, the Banks and Agents reporting considerable
gains of notes on hand mainly withdrawn from circulation, while redemptions by the
Treasury were in excess of 7 millions.

The banks’ aggregate liabilities on account

of F:. R. bank notes in circulation likewise show a slight decrease. 0n the other
hand gold reserves show a g a i n of 2-9 millions, while cash reserves went up 2 .1
• millions.

The banks' reserve percentage, because of the reductions in both

deposit and note lia b ilitie s and the simultaneous increase in cash reserves, shows
a rise from 51 rl to 52 -3 percent.

Further reduction

in the holdings of Treasury certificates, more than

offset by an increase of other loans and in-restraents is indicated by the
Federal Reserve Board*s statement of condition on May 16 of 7/3 member
banks in leading cities.
U» S. bonds other than circulation bonds on hand show an increase during
the week of 3*9 millions, all outside Federal Reserve bank cities.

Loans

secured by Government war obligations, including Victory notes, show an
addition of 7 .6 millions, notwithstanding a reduction of 4.7 millions'under
this head reported by the New York City member banks.

Other loans and

investments went up 5S .6 millions, all classes of banks sharing- in the
increase.
Aggregate U. S. war obligations and loans secured by such obligations
("war paper") declined from 4,011-5 to 3 , 9S4 .9 millions and constitute 27*1
per cent of the total loans and investments of all reporting banks, as against
27 .4 per cent the week before*

For the New York City banks an even larger

decline in this percentage from 3 1.4 to 30-9 par cent is noted.
Net withdrawals of Government deposits totaled 116-3 millions, while
time deposits declined 23-2 millions, largely in the 12 Federal Reserve
cities.

It is Jikely that the amounts of time deposits withdrawn we re used

largely to pay on subscriptions to Victory notes.-

On the other hand, net

demand deposits increased S4.7 millions, the increase being more or less
r general for all classes of banks.

As a result reserve balances with the

Federal Reserve banks show an increase of I S .1 millions.
appears in the total of cash in vault.
