FE D E R A L R E S E R V E BANK O F DALLAS F IS C A L A C E N T O F T H E U N IT E D ST A T E S Dallas, Texas, June 6, 1944 ^o AII Banking Institutions in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District: There are enclosed several copies of a booklet describing briefly the issues of Government securities to be offered during the Fifth War Loan Drive. Additional copies will be furnished upon request. It is believed that the officers and employees of banks who plan to participate in the drive will find this booklet very useful for reference purposes during discussions with pros pective buyers of Government securities. The commercial bankers have played a most important part in the Treasury’s war-financ ing program and have contributed greatly to the success of previous War Loan drives. They have given unstintedly of their time and efforts, not only during the drives but also between drives. They have likewise rendered outstanding service on State and local War Finance com mittees and in selling securities directly to their customers and others, as well as in processing most of the subscriptions received in their respective communities. It is estimated that the commercial banks have processed between 80 and 90 per cent of all the Government securities sold in this district since Pearl Harbor. The attainment of the $16,000,000,000 goal during the Fifth War Loan Drive, of which $6,000,000,000 is to be sold to individuals, is a responsibility that must be shared by everyone. In view of the huge sum to be raised, the Treasury is depending upon bank officers and directors, as well as other leaders in their respective communities, to intensify their efforts in arousing their customers and friends to buy as many securities as possible during the drive. A much larger volume of securities must be sold in the forthcoming drive to individuals whose current income and savings in the form of currency and bank deposits are increasing substantially. This is necessary because, if individuals should attempt to use their savings and surplus income to buy the greatly curtailed supply of civilian goods, the inflationary pressures would become much more serious and the war effort might be affected adversely. Consequently, individuals should be impressed with the fact that they can best serve their own interests and those of the nation by investing their savings and excess current income in Government securities. Success in diverting these funds from the market places to the purchase of Government securities will contribute to the safeguarding of the future welfare of the country, as well as to the financing of the campaign for victory on the battlefields. This bank is vitally interested in the success of the drive, and it assures all the banks of the district and the War Finance committees that it stands ready to give every possible assistance to make the Fifth War Loan Drive an outstanding success.

Dvuing the period from June 12 to June 26, only sales to individuals will be reported. The campaign to sell individuals will be supplemented, starting June 26, with an intensive campaign to sell all other non-banking investors—the quota for which is $10,000,000,000. ALLOCATIONS: As in the Fourth War Loan, large busi ness organizations may allocate credit for their company purchases to branches in any county or community, to help local or State committees make their quotas. The request must be made at the time of the original pur chase and each amount allocated on Federal Reserve forms RA, or RA 1. To avoid unnecessary transfers of funds from one locality to another, the Treasvuy again urges th a t all su b sc rip tio n s by corporations a n d firm s be e n te re d a n d p a id for th ro u g h th e b a n kin g in s titu tio n s w here fu n d s are located. Subscriptions from insvuance companies will be cred ited only to the conununity in which the company has its home office. BANKS HOLDING TIME DEPOSITS: Concurrently with the Fifth War Loan drive, but not as a part of it, commercial banks will be permitted to subscribe to the 2% and 2j^% Treasury bonds, as well as'to Series F and Series G bonds, in lim ite d a m o u n ts for the in vestment of their time deposits. The total limit of such pvuchases, including those made for the same pvupose in accordance with the formula announced for the Fourth War Loan, shall not exceed in the aggregate, 20% of the combined amount of time certificates of , deposit (but only those issued in the names of indi viduals, and of organizations not operated for profit), and of savings deposits, as shown by the most recent call statem ent; or $400,000, whichever is less. No bank shall hold more than $100,000 (issue price) of Series F and Series G Savings Bonds (Series 1944) combined. BANK LOANS: The Treasury requests the cooperation of all banking institutions in declining to make specu lative loans for the purchase of Government securities. The Treasury is in favor of the banks making loans to facilitate permanent investment in Government securi ties provided th a t such loans are made in accord with the joint statem ent issued by the National and State Supervisory Authorities which states th a t “Such loans will not be subject to criticism, but should be on a short term or amortization basis, fully repayable within periods not exceeding six months.” TRADING RESTRICTIONS: The Treasury requests th a t there be no trading in the new marketable securities and no purchase of such securities other tHan on direct subscription until after July 8. R e g istra tio n of U nited S tates G overnm ent S e c u rities SUGGESTIONS Due to the tremendous volume of subscriptions for bonds which will be received dming the Fifth War Loan Drive, it is essential that everyone concerned lend his support to the attem pt to eliminate all possible errors and thereby minimize delays in the delivery of purchaser’s bonds. Attention to the following will be appreciated: Some of the issues are similar in name but no confusion will result if they are described as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. ''Series E Waz Bonds" "Series F Savings Bonds" "Series G Savings Bonds" "2V^% Treasury Bonds" "2% Treasury Bonds" "114% Treasury Notes" "%% Certificates" "Series C Savings Notes" Of the above named issues, the first three are issued in registered form only and registration instructions must therefore be given. Be sure th a t a correct post office address is obtained. The purchaser of any of these three may ifhe so desires, name either (but not both) a co-owner or a beneficiary. The two issues of “Treasury Bonds” are available in either registered or bearer form. If the former is desired, registration instructions should be given. The “\y i% Treasvu*y Notes” and the “ ]/s% Certifi cates” are available in bearer form only. The “Series C Savings Notes” are inscribed in the name of the owner. Subscriptions should be forwarded promptly, for delay in the receipt of orders for savings bonds or savings notes may result in incorrect dating, while a delay in the receipt of orders for Treasury Bonds, Notes or Certificates may result in a charge for additional interest or a refusal of acceptance of the order. Normally, deliveries will be made by mail to the address of the purchaser and this is the preferable method but other means can be used if desired and clearly stated.
