June 25, 1931 J

Public Notice of Offering of Treasury Bills in Two Series
of $50,000,000 each, (or thereabouts)
Bidders will be required to specify the particular series for which each tender is made. Any
tender which does not specifically refer to a particular series will be subject to rejection.

To all Banks and Trust Companies in the Second
Federal Reserve District and Others Concerned:

Following is the text of a notice today made public by the Treasury Department
with respect to a new offering of Treasury bills payable at maturity without interest
to be sold on a discount basis to the highest bidders.
Acting Secretary of the Treasury Mills gives notice that tenders are invited for
two series of Treasury bills to the aggregate amount of $100,000,000 or thereabouts.
One series will be 91-day bills and the other series will be 90-day bills. Both series
will be sold on a discount basis to the highest bidders. Tenders will be received at
the Federal Reserve Banks, or the branches thereof, up to two o'clock P.M., Eastern
Standard Time, on June 29, 1931. Tenders will not be received at the Treasury Department, Washington.
The Treasury bills will, as stated, be issued in two series, $50,000,000, or thereabouts, to be dated July 1, 1931 and maturing on September 30, 1931 and $50,000,000,
or thereabouts, to be dated July 2, 1931 and maturing on September 30, 1931. Bidders
will be required to specify the particular series for which each tender is made. The
face amount of the bills of both series will be payable without interest on September
30, 1931. The bills will be issued in bearer form only, and in amounts or denominations of $1,000, $10,000, and $100,000 (maturity value).
It is urged that tenders be made on the printed forms and forwarded in the special
envelopes which will be supplied by the Federal Reserve Banks or branches upon application therefor.
No tender for an amount less than $1,000 will be considered. Each tender must
be in multiples of $1,000. The price offered must be expressed on the basis of 100, with
not more than three decimal places, e.g., 99.125. Fractions must not be used.
Tenders will be accepted without cash deposit from incorporated banks and trust
companies and from responsible and recognized dealers in investment securities. Tenders from others must be accompanied by a deposit of 10 per cent of the face amount
of Treasury bills applied for, unless the tenders are accompanied by an express guaranty of payment by an incorporated bank or trust company.
Immediately after the closing hour for receipt of tenders on June 29, 1931, all
tenders received at the Federal Reserve Banks or branches thereof up to the closing
hour will be opened and public announcement of the acceptable prices for each series
will follow as soon as possible thereafter, probably on the following morning. The Sec-




retary of the Treasury expressly reserves the right to reject any or all tenders or parts
of tenders, and to allot less than the amount applied for, and his action in any such
respect shall be final. Any tender which does not specifically refer to a particular series
will be subject to rejection. Those submitting tenders will be advised of the acceptance
or rejection thereof. Payment at the price offered for Treasury bills allotted must be
made at the Federal Reserve Banks in cash or other immediately available funds on
July 1, 1931, for the bills allotted bearing that date of issue, and on July 2, 1931,
for bills allotted bearing the latter date of issue.
The Treasury bills will be exempt, as to principal and interest, and any gain from
the sale or other disposition thereof will also be exempt, from all taxation, except estate
and inheritance taxes. No loss from the sale or other disposition of the Treasury bills
shall be allowed as a deduction, or otherwise recognized, for the purposes of any tax
now or hereafter imposed by the United States or any of its possessions.
Treasury Department Circular No. 418, as amended, dated June 25, 1930, and this
notice as issued by the Acting Secretary of the Treasury, prescribe the terms of the
Treasury bills and govern the conditions of their issue. Copies of the circular may
be obtained from any Federal Reserve Bank or branch thereof.

In accordance with the above announcement tenders will be received at the
Securities Department of this bank (2nd floor, 33 Liberty Street, New York City)
or at the Buffalo Branch of this bank (272 Main Street, Buffalo, New York) until
2 P. M., Monday, June 29, 1931, Eastern Standard Time. (3 P. M. Daylight
Saving Time.)
It is requested that tenders be submitted on special form for each series and
forwarded in special envelope enclosed herewith. Bids for both series may be enclosed
in a single envelope.
Attention is invited to the fact that payment for Treasury bills cannot be made
by credit through the War Loan Deposit Account. Payment must be made in cash
or immediately available funds.
