Circular No. 73-303
November 23, 1973

To All Banking Institutions and. Others Concerned
in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District:
Quoted, below is the text of a statement issued by the
Treasury Department in regard, to current financing.

SALE OF APRIL AND JUNE TAX ANTICIPATION BILLS
The Treasury is selling $3.0 billion of tax antici­
pation bills, $1.0 billion which are an additional amount
of those maturing in April 197*+ and, $2.0 billion to mature
in June 197*+.
The bills will be auctioned on Wednesday, November 28,
for payment on December 3. Commercial banks may make pay­
ment for 50% of their own and, their customers’ accepted
tenders by credit to Treasury Tax and. Loan accounts.
The bills will mature on April 19 and, June 21, but
may be used, at face value in payment of Federal income
taxes due on April 15 and June 15, 197*+ > respectively.
The Treasury noted, that a somewhat larger financing at
this time than it had, earlier anticipated, is prudently re­
quired to offset actual or potential redemption of Treasury
securities held, by foreign monetary authorities and to
afford adequate flexibility in the absence of authority to
borrow directly from Federal Reserve Banks.
The tenders for the two issues of Treasury bills are enclosed,.
Additional forms and, additional copies of this letter will be furnished
upon request.
Yours very truly,
P.E. Coldwell
President

IMPORTANT
1. No tender for less than $10,000 will be considered and each tender over $10,000 must be for an amount in multiples of
$5,000 (maturity value).
2. Tenders should be forwarded in an envelope clearly addressed to this bank or appropriate branch as Fiscal Agent of^ the
United States, with notation on the envelope reading “TENDER FOR TREASURY OFFERING”. Since envelopes received
with this legend will not be opened until after the closing time specified in the public announcement, communications
relating to other m atters should not be enclosed. Envelopes for submitting tenders may be requested from this bank or
appropriate branch.
3. Any qualified or conditional tender w ill be rejected.
4. If a corporation makes the tender the form should be signed by an officer of the corporation authorized to make the
tender and the signing of the form by an officer of the corporation will be construed as a representation by him that he
has been so authorized. If the tender is made by a partnership it should be signed by a member of the firm, who
should sign in the form “................................................................ a copartnership, by...................... ........................................................
a member of the firm”.
5. Tenders from those other than incorporated banks and trust companies or responsible and recognized dealers in invest­
ment securities w ill be disregarded, unless accompanied by a deposit of 2 percent of the total amount (maturity value)
of the Treasury bills applied for, or unless the tenders are accompanied by an express guaranty of full payment by an
incorporated bank or trust company.
6. If the language of this form is changed in any respect, which, in the opinion of the Secretary of the Treasury, is material,
the tender m ay be disregarded.
