D aylight Saving Tim e, Monday, October 2, 1967. T enders will not be received a t th e T reasury D epartm ent, W ashington. E ach

on application therefor.
Banking institutions generally may subm it tenders for account of customers provided the names of the customers are
set forth in such tenders. Others th an banking institutions will not be perm itted to subm it tenders except for their own account.

Im m ediately after th e closing hour, tenders will be opened a t the Federal R eserve Banks and Branches, following which
public announcem ent will be m ade by the T reasury D epartm ent of th e am ount and price range of accepted bids. Those
subm itting tenders will be advised of the acceptance or rejection thereof. T h e Secretary of the 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

exchange tenders will receive equal treatm ent. Cash adjustm ents will be m ade for differences between the par value of m atur­
ing bills accepted in exchange and the issue price of th e new bills.
T h e income derived from T reasury bills, whether interest or gain from the 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 th e Internal Revenue Code of 1954. T h e bills are subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, w hether
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 the possessions of the U nited States, or by any local taxing authority. For purposes of taxation th e am ount of discount
a t which T reasury bills are originally sold by th e U nited States is considered to be interest. U nder Sections 454 (b ) and
1221 (5 ) of th e Internal R evenue 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 return only the difference between th e 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.
Treasury D epartm en t Circular No. 418 (curren t revision) and this notice, prescribe the term s of the T reasury bills and
govern th e conditions of their issue. Copies of th e circular m ay be obtained from any F ederal Reserve B ank or Branch.

In accordance v/ith 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,
Houston a n d San Antonio up to twelve-thirty p.m., Central Daylight Saving Time, M on d ay , October 2, 1967. Tenders

Yours very truly,
Watrous H. Irons
