T h e incom e derived from T reasury bills, w hether in terest or gain from th e sale or o th er disposition of th e bills, does not
have any exem ption, as such, and loss from th e sale or o ther disposition of T reasury bills does n o t have any special treatm en t,
as such, under th e In te rn a l R evenue Code of 1954. T h e b ills are subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, w hether
F ederal or S tate, b u t are exem pt from all taxation now or h ereafter im posed on th e p rincipal or in terest thereof by any S tate,
or any of th e possessions of th e U nited S tates, or by any local taxing authority. F o r purposes of taxation th e am ount of discount
a t which T reasury b ills are originally sold by th e U nited S tates is considered to b e interest. U nder Sections 454 (b ) and 1221 (5 )
of th e In tern al R evenue Code of 1954 th e am ount of discount a t which bills issued hereunder are sold is n o t considered to
accrue u n til such b ills are sold, redeem ed or otherw ise disposed of, and such bills are excluded from consideration as capital
assets. A ccordingly, th e ow ner of T reasu ry bills (o th er th a n life insurance com panies) issued hereunder need include in his
incom e tax retu rn only th e difference betw een th e price paid for such bills, w hether on original issue or on subsequent purchase,
and th e am ount actually received e ith e r upon sale or redem ption a t m atu rity during th e taxable year for w hich th e retu rn is
m ade, as ordinary gain or loss.
T reasury D ep artm en t C ircular N o. 418 (cu rren t revision) and th is notice, prescribe th e term s of th e T reasury bills and
govern th e conditions of th e ir issue. Copies of th e circular m ay be obtained from any F ederal R eserve B ank or B ranch.
