DEFERRED DELIVERIES OF DEFENSE SAVINGS BONDS, SERIES E

To Qualified Agents for the Issuance of
Defense Savings Bonds, Series E :

Inquiries have been received as to the proper procedure where an issu­
ing agent accepts in December applications and payments for Series E
Bonds and cannot prepare the bonds for issuance in that month.
The Treasury Department has advised that under these circumstances
issuing agents are authorized to issue such bonds as of the first of Decem­
ber, even though the bonds are not prepared until the following month. The
date shown by the agent’s dating stamp in the circle in the lower left-hand
comer of the bond should be the day on which the bond is prepared for
issuance.
The Treasury also advises that, through a greatly enlarged program of
the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, it is confident that all requirements
for savings bonds of Series Ei will be met in the near future. In the mean­
time all bonds received by this bank are allocated on as equitable a basis as
possible and shipped in the order of receipt of requisitions.

Yours very truly,
R. R. GILBERT
President
