FE D E R AL R E SE R V E BANK OF DALLAS Dallas, Texas, March 6, 1936 Circular No. 2, Series of 19B6 Effective March 9, 1936 TRANSIT OPERATIONS TIME SC H E D U L E O F A V A IL A B IL IT Y To the Member or Nonmember Clearing Bank Addressed: There is published on the following pages a time schedule of availability accorded items received for credit at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and its El Paso, Houston and San Antonio Branches. This schedule supersedes all previous schedules and is subject to change without notice. Subject to the terms and conditions of this time schedule, our current cir cular on transit operations, and Regulation J of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, credit will be given at the times indicated herein for cash items received and accepted by us, and for cash items payable in other Federal Reserve districts which are forwarded with our permission direct to other Federal Reserve banks or branches for our account. This time schedule does not necessarily show the actual time required for collec tion of cash items, and advices received from us showing the availability of items cannot be considered as advices of actual payment. Credit will, in all instances, be subject to receipt of payment by us in actually and finally collected funds, and we may in our discretion refuse at any time to permit the withdrawal or other use of credit given for any item for which we have not received payment in actually and finally collected funds. Checks should be assorted and listed in separate letters in accordance with the divisions of this time schedule, and a notation such as “ immediate credit,” “ one day,” “ two days,” etc., should be placed on each letter. The total amount of cash letters containing checks not assorted according to this time schedule may, in our discretion, be deferred for a period sufficient to collect items of the longest availability contained therein. Credit for items payable in this district will be deferred on a business day basis, and credit for items payable in other districts, in so far as it concerns the transit time to other Federal Reserve banks or branches, will be deferred on a calendar day basis. 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 availability in a Fed eral Reserve city, will be accepted on the same basis as checks drawn on banks located in that city.
