Payments During Victory Loan Drive

To all Incorporated Banks and Trust Companies
in the Second Federal Reserve District Qualified
as Special Depositaries of Public Moneys:

In connection with the Victory Loan Drive, a special depositary of
public moneys may pay for subscriptions to Government securities by
credit to its war loan deposit account even though the balance in the
account may exceed the maximum qualification of the depositary,
provided the depositary pays us promptly thereafter the amount by
which the balance in the account exceeds the maximum qualification.
With respect to amounts in excess of maximum qualification accruing
during the period December 3 through December 8, the requirement of
prompt payment will be modified so as to permit the payment of the
aggregate of such amounts in five equal daily instalments in the period
December 10 through December 14, but not later. In any case, of course,
the entire balance in the war loan account must be secured by the deposit
of acceptable collateral with us.
If the balance in the war loan deposit account of a depositary appears
likely to exceed its present maximum qualification, it may wish to apply
f o r an increase in maximum qualification.

The limit on maximum

qualification of a depositary is an amount not in excess of 30% of its
total deposits, exclusive of war loan deposits, as of October 31, 1945.
ALLAN SPROUL,

President.
