FED ER A L R E S E R V E BANK OF NEW YORK Fiscal Agent of the United States No. 3 210~ I [Circular May 1, 1947 J UNITED STATES SAVINGS BONDS Distribution of Supplies and Material for Use in Connection with the Bond-A-Month Plan To Member Banks, and Nonmember State Banks and Trust Companies, in the Second Federal Eeserve District: The Secretary of the Treasury, in his letter dated March 17, 1947, which was sent to all banks and trust companies in the country, announced the Bond-A-Month Plan for the sale of United States Savings Bonds through such banks and trust companies, and solicited their cooperation in promoting and operating the plan. As you know, the plan contemplates that each checking-account depositor taking advantage of the plan will authorize his bank to make a stated deduction from his account each month for the purchase of one or more Savings Bonds. To facilitate operations under the plan, certain supplies and materials will be furnished to each bank and trust company. The State Director of the United States Savings Bonds Division will send you, on request, a supply of descriptive folders to be enclosed with statements mailed to your checking-account depositors at the end of May or during June. A postage-paid authorization card attached to the folder may be detached and executed by the depositor and returned to you by mail as your authority to charge his account for the purchase of bonds under the plan. This folder, with the authorization card attached, is designed primarily for solicita tion by mail; and it is assumed that you will wish to obtain from the State Director a quantity sufficient to solicit each of your checking-account depositors in this manner. The folder will not be available at this bank. Enclosed is another form of authorization card which will be supplied by this bank upon receipt of your order on the enclosed postal card. This form is for use primarily in connec tion with the personal solicitation of depositors at the banking offices. Since it is assumed that the initial solicitation of your depositors will be made by you through use of the descriptive folder referred to in the preceding paragraph, the quantity of authorization cards to be sup plied by this bank for office use should not be large. However, should your ultimate require ments be larger than originally anticipated, we would be glad to furnish you with additional supplies. Bonds sold under the Bond-A-Month Plan may be mailed in special penalty envelopes, on the same basis as other Savings Bonds have been mailed. We will continue to furnish issu ing agents with penalty envelopes in quantities consistent with their requirements, in accordance with our established procedure. A l l a n S pr o u l , President. F ed era l R e ser v e B a n k of N e w Y ork Fiscal A^ent of the United States Gentlemen: Kindly send to us ..................................... authorization cards for use in connection with the Bond-A-Month Plan, which were referred to in your Circular No. 3210, dated May 1 , 1947.
