FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF DALLAS
F IS C A L A G E N T O F THE UNITED S T A T E S

Dallas, Texas, January 13, 1945

To Qualified Issuing Agents of
War Savings Bonds, Series E:

Owing to war conditions, it is necessary to conserve cotton materials
used in the manufacture of the cloth bags in which this bank and its
branches ship stock of United States Savings Bonds. To aid such conserva­
tion, it is urged that issuing agents return to this bank or appropriate
branch any such bags in their possession. The bags may be returned by
express, collect, or by parcel post. If forwarded by parcel post, refund of
the postage costs will be made upon advice of the amount expended.
Since mutilation of bags makes them unfit for further use without
patching, those persons who open bags containing bond stock should be
requested to do so with care.
The cooperation of all issuing agents will be appreciated.
Yours very truly,
R. R. GILBERT
President
