T h e income derived from T reasury bills, w hether interest or gain from th e sale or other disposition of the bills, does not
have any exemption, as such, and loss from th e sale or other disposition of T reasury bills does not have any special treatm ent,
as such, under th e Internal R evenue Code of 1954. T h e bills are subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, whether
F ederal or State, b u t are exem pt from all taxation now or hereafter imposed on the principal or interest thereof by any State,
or any of th e possessions of th e U nited States, or by any local taxing authority. For purposes of taxation the am ount of discount
at which T reasury bills are originally sold by the U nited States is considered to be interest. U nder Sections 454 (b ) and
1221 (5 ) of th e Internal Revenue Code of 1954 the am ount of discount a t which bills issued hereunder are sold is not con­
sidered to accrue until such bills are sold, redeem ed or otherwise disposed of, and such bills are excluded from consideration as
capital assets. Accordingly, the owner of T reasury bills (other th an life insurance com panies) issued hereunder need include
in his income tax retu rn only the difference between the price paid for such bills, w hether on original issue or on subsequent
purchase, and th e am ount actually received either upon sale or redem ption a t m aturity during th e taxable year for which the
retu rn is made, as ordinary gain or loss.
T reasury D ep artm ent Circular No. 418 (current revision) and this notice, prescribe the term s of the T reasury bills and
govern th e conditions of th eir issue. Copies of th e circular m ay be obtained from any F ederal Reserve B ank or Branch.

In acc o rd an c e with the a b o v e an n o u n c em en t, tenders will b e received at this b a n k an d its branches at El Paso,
Houston a n d San Antonio, up to twelve-thirty p.m ., Central Sandard Time, M o n d a y , April 17, 1967. Tenders m ay

Yours very truly,
Watrous H. Irons
President
