November 13, 1967

To implement this policy, System open market operations
until the next meeting of the Committee shall be conducted with a
view to maintaining about the prevailing conditions in the money
market; provided, however, that should expansion of total reserves
not seasonally adjusted tend to exceed a 5 to 6 per cent annual rate,
operations shall be modified as necessary to limit total reserve
growth to that rate.
