Circular No. 7^-160
June 11, 197k

To All Banking Institutions and Others Concerned
in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District:
Quoted below is the text of a statement issued by the
Treasury Department pertaining to the weekly offering of Treasury
bills:
AMOUNT OF TREASURY BILLS OFFERED IN WEEKLY AUCTIONS

In today's announcement of the weekly auction of
Treasury bills to be held on June 17, the amount of bills
offered is continued at $200 million more than the amount
that is maturing.
The total of bills offered is being continued at
$U .5 billion because a foreign central bank will be bidding
for $200 million of bills in that auction and in each of
the following nine weekly auctions.
The purpose of the bank's entry into the bill auctions
is to achieve a better balance between its holdings of
special Treasury issues and marketable Treasury issues.
Additional copies of this letter are available on request.
Enclosed are tenders for the weekly bills to be auctioned on June 17.
Yours very truly,
P. E. Coldwell
President
