T h e income derived from T reasury bills, w hether interest or gain from th e sale or other disposition of th e 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 he bills are subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, w hether
Federal 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 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
retu rn is made, as ordinary gain or loss.
T reasury D ep artm en t Circular No. 418 (cu rren t revision) and this notice, prescribe th e term s of th e T reasury bills and
govern th e conditions of their issue. Copies of th e circular may be obtained from any Federal R eserve B ank or Branch.

In acc ord 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 a n d its branches at El Paso,

Yours very truly,
