Bank

r e se r v e
OF DALLAS

Dallas, Texas, April 28, 1942

To the Member and Nonmember Clearing Banks
of the Eleventh Federal Reserve District:

There is enclosed revised page 9 of our Bulletin No. 8, relating to the
collection of cash items. This page, representing the time schedule of
availability, will become effective May 1, 1942. The principal changes
made therein relate to the earlier closing hours for the receipt of certain
classes of items and to the increased collection time applicable to items
drawn on outlying banks in Houston.
The revised page should be inserted in the ring binder containing bulle­
tins of this bank and the Regulations of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System, in lieu of the corresponding page dated September
1, 1989.
Yours very truly,
R. R. GILBERT
President
