FEDERAL RESERVE BANK
OF DALLAS

Dallas, Texas, April 15, 1930.

CANADIAN CURRENCY
To Member Bank Addressed:
Enclosed herewith is a statement which the Federal Reserve Board
and the Federal reserve banks and branches have given to the press, relatĀ­
ing to the conversion into United States funds of Canadian paper currency
spent in this country.
In accordance with this statement, you may include Canadian paper
currency in your shipments of United States currency provided the two
kinds of currency are properly segregated within the package.
Credit for such currency will be given for its face value and when the
cost of conversion into United States funds is determined it will be charged
to your reserve account. As brought out in the accompanying press stateĀ­
ment, the average cost during the past three years of converting Canadian
paper currency into United States funds, including both exchange and
shipping charges, has averaged less than 1 per cent.
Yours very truly,

Governor.
