Tenders w ill not be received at the Treasury Department, Washington. Each tender must be for an even multiple o f $1,000, and in the case o f competitive tenders the price offered must be expressed on the basis o f 100, with not more than three decimals, e.g., 99.925. Fractions may not be used. It is urged that tenders be made on the printed forms and forwarded in the special envelopes which w ill be supplied by Federal Reserve Banks or Branches on application therefor. Others than banking institutions w ill not be permitted to submit tenders except for their own account. Tenders w ill be received without deposit from incorporated banks and trust companies and from responsible and recognized dealers in in vestment securities. Tenders from others must be accompanied by payment o f 2 percent of the face amount o f Treasury bills applied for, unless the tenders are accompanied by an express guaranty o f payment by an incorporated bank or trust company. Immediately after the closing hour, tenders w ill be opened at the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, follow ing which public announcement w ill be made by the Secretary of the Treasury o f the amount and price range o f accepted bids. Those submitting tenders w ill be advised of the acceptance or rejection thereof. The Secretary o f the Treasury expressly reserves the right to accept or reject any or all tenders, in whole or in part, and his action in any such respect shall be final. Subject to these reservations, non-competitive tenders for $200,000 or less without stated price from any one bidder will be accepted in full at the average price (in three decimals) o f accepted competitive bids. Settlement for accepted tenders in accordance with the bids must be made or completed at the Federal Reserve Bank on October 23, 1952, in cash or other immediately available funds or in a like face amount o f Treasury bills maturing October 23, 1952. Cash and exchange tenders w ill receive equal treatment. Cash adjustments will be made for differences between the par value o f maturing bills accepted in exchange and the issue price o f the new bills. The income derived from Treasury bills, whether interest or gain from the sale or other disposition o f the bills, shall not have any exemption, as such, and loss from the sale or other disposition o f Treasury bills shall not have any special treatment, as such, under the Internal Revenue Code, or laws amendatory or supplementary thereto. The bills shall be subject to estate, inheritance, gift, or other excise taxes, whether Federal or State, but shall be exempt from all taxation now or hereafter imposed on the principal or interest thereof by any State, or any o f the possessions o f the United States, or by any local taxing authority. For purposes o f taxation the amount o f discount at which Treasury bills are originally sold by the United States shall be considered to be interest. Under Sections 42 and 117(a)(1) o f the Internal Revenue Code, as amended by Section 115 o f the Revenue A ct o f 1941, the amount o f discount at which bills issued hereunder are sold shall not be considered to accrue until such bills shall be sold, redeemed or otherwise disposed of, and such bills are excluded from consideration as capital assets. Accordingly, the owner o f Treasury bills (other than life insurance com panies) issued hereunder need include in his income tax return only the difference between the price paid for such bills, whether on original issue or on subsequent purchase, and the amount actually received either upon sale or redemption at maturity during the taxable year for which the return is made, as ordinary gain or loss. Treasury Department Circular No. 418, as amended, and this notice, prescribe the terms o f the Treasury bills and govern the conditions o f their issue.
