STATISTICS ON MEMBER BANKS

To the Member Bank Addressed:
Condition reports as of June 30, 1927, received in response to the calls from the
Comptroller of the Currency and the Department of Banking of the various states, show
that the total borrowings of member banks in this district on that date amounted to $12,431,900 as compared to $25,393,000 on the same date in 1926. In each instance, approxi­
mately 50 per cent of the amount was obtained from the Federal Reserve Bank.
Despite the low price received for the 1926 cotton crop, deposits this year are ap­
proximately $40,000,000 greater than they were a year ago and loans are only slightly
larger. The ratio of quick assets to deposits on June 30, 1927, was 48.6 as against 40.8 on
that date in 1926. The ratio of loans to deposits was 71.4 and 74.6 respectively.
