Circular No. 10
FEDERAL RESERVE BANK
Series of 1928
August 16, 1928
Effective August 21, 1928
TRANSIT OPERATIONS
TIME S C H E D U L E S O F A V A IL A B IL IT Y
To the Member Bank Addressed:
For your guidance in forwarding items for credit, under the terms of our cur
rent circular on Transit Operations, there will be found on the following pages time
schedules of availability accorded items received at the Federal Reserve Bank of
Dallas and its El Paso, Houston and San Antonio branches. Credit and availability
are, in each instance, subject to the receipt of actual payment, as specified in our
current circular on Transit Operations, Collection of Cash Items. These schedules
supersede all previous schedules and are subject to change without notice.
In order to expedite the forwarding of checks and to obtain prompt credit,
member banks are requested to sort and list checks in separate letters in accord
ance with the divisions of these schedules. A notation should be placed on each
letter, plainly indicating when the items included are expected to be available as
reserve, such as “ immediate credit,” “ one day,” “ two days,” etc. Business days
only are to be counted in determining the availability date; for instance, a letter
containing two-day items received by us on Saturday within the hours designated
in these schedules would be available the following Tuesday.
Should a cash letter contain checks not sorted according to the time taken for
collection, as shown by these schedules, credit for the total of the letter may be de
ferred, at our discretion, for a period sufficient to collect items of longest availabil
ity contained therein.
Checks drawn on banks not located in a Federal reserve city, but bearing upon
their face a notation that they are payable at or receivable for immediate availa
bility in a Federal reserve city, will be accepted on the same basis as checks drawn
on banks located in that city.
Yours very truly,
Governor.
