T h e Secretary of th e T reasury expressly reserves the right to accept or reject any or all tenders, in whole or in part, and his action in any such respect shall be final. Subject to these reservations, noncom petitive tenders for each issue for $200,000 or less w ithout stated price from any one bidder will be accepted in full at the average price (in three decim als) of accepted com petitive bids for th e respective issues.

T he income derived from T reasury bills, whether interest or gain from th e sale or other disposition of the bills, does not have any exemption, as such, and loss from the sale or other disposition of Treasury bills does not have any special treatm ent, as such, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954. T h e bills are subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, whether Federal or State, but are exem pt from all taxation now or hereafter imposed on th e principal or interest thereof by any State, or any of the possessions of the U nited States, or by any local taxing authority. For purposes of taxation th e 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 the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 th e am ount of discount at 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 than 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 the am ount actually received either upon sale or redem ption a t m aturity during th e taxable year for which the return is made, as ordinary gain or loss. Treasury D epartm ent Circular No. 418 (cu rren t revision) and this notice, prescribe th e term s of the T reasury bills and govern, the conditions of their issue.
