INTERPRETATION OF REGULATION T

To National Securities Exchanges in the
Second Federal Reserve District:

For your information I quote below the text of a telegram which I have received
today from the Federal Reserve Board:
Ruling No. 43 Interpreting Regulation T.
In reply to an inquiry of a business conduct committee of a national securities
exchange, the Federal Reserve Board rules that if such a committee has granted a
"creditor", as defined in Regulation T, an extension of time amounting to less than
10 days in which to obtain margin under section 4 (e) of Regulation T, such committee
may grant a further extension of time if the circumstances of the case warrant such
action provided that the aggregate of all extensions so granted in such case does not
exceed 10 days. The Board also rules that if, in the case of a cash transaction under
section 6 of the regulation, such a committee has granted a "creditor" an extension of
time amounting to less than 35 days, such committee may grant a further extension of
time if the circumstances of the case warrant such action provided that the aggregate
of all extensions so granted in such case does not exceed 35 days.

Additional copies of this circular will be furnished upon request.

Federal Reserve Agent.

NEW COUNTERFEIT
To Member Banks in the Second Federal
Beserve District and others concerned:
At the request of the Secret Service Division of the Treasury Department,
New York District, we are hereby transmitting to all member banks in the Second
Federal Reserve District and others concerned the following description of a new
counterfeit $1.00 silver certificate:
COUNTERFEIT #1.00 SILVER CERTIFICATE
Series of 1928 A; Check Letter *Af; Face Plate number
indistinct, probably 1182; back plate number omitted; serial
number of specimen at hand is R92980261A; W. 0. WOODS,
Treasurer of the United States; A. VS. MELLON, Secretary of
the Treasury; portrait of WASHINGTON.
This note is a crude reproduction on one piece of glossy
bond paper. The face and hair in the portrait of WASHINGTON
are very blotchy, and the Treasury seal and serial numbers are
printed in a very dark blue unlike the genuine. The back of
the note is executed in a dark green, and the entire reproduction represents inferior workmanship. This note should not
deceive the average handler of currency.
If any of these notes or other counterfeits are brought
to your attention they should be forwarded with all available
information to the office of the U. S. Secret Service having
jurisdiction in your territory.
Offices of the Service are
located in Buffalo, Syracuse and New York, N. Y., and in
Newark, N. J".




George L. Harrison,
Governor,
