C O N D IT IO N O F MEMBER BANKS, O C TO B ER 6. 1959
ELEVENTH FEDERAL RESERVE D IS TR IC T

To the Member Banks in the
Eleventh Federal Reserve District:
On October 6, 1959, assets of member banks in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District
were 3.5 percent above the level recorded for September 24, 1958, and were 1.3 percent
above the June 10, 1959, level. Detailed information concerning major asset and liability
items is presented on the reverse side of this letter.
Asset expansion since the year-earlier call date represented principally an increase in
loans. Cash accounts rose slightly, but investments declined substantially in response to
the strengthening of credit demands and the development of pressures on bank reserve
positions. The year-to-year loan growth, which totaled almost $422 million, was concen­
trated in the business loan and consumer loan categories. Securities loans expanded only
slightly, while agricultural loans and real-estate loans decreased.
Total deposits on October 6, 1959, were little changed from the midyear level but
were almost $166 million above the total recorded for September 24, 1958. Member banks
added $68 million to capital accounts between the latter date and October 6, 1959, but the
ratio of capital accounts to risk assets declined from 15.9 percent to 15.7 percent.
Yours very truly,
Watrous H. Irons
President
