Substantial

decreases in

holdings of Treasury certifi¬
cates of indebtedness and increases in holdings of Treas¬
ury notes occurred in most districts, partially reflecting
the exchange of maturing certificates for a new 20month note issue. Holdings of Treasury bills decreased
$316,000,000 in New York City, $42,000,000 in the San
Francisco District, and a total of $458,000,000 at all re¬
porting member banks. United States Government bonds
increased $61,000,000.
Demand

deposits adjusted decreased in nearly all dis¬
tricts; the principal decreases were $384,000,000 in New
York City, $133,000,000 in the Chicago District, and $58,000,000 in the Philadelphia District. United States Gov¬
