Immediately after the closing hour, tenders will be opened at the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, follow in g which public announcement will be made by the Treasury Department o f the amount and price range o f accepted bids. Those sub mitting tenders w ill be advised o f the acceptance or rejection thereof. T h e 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.

T he incom e derived from Treasury bills, whether interest or gain from the sale or other disposition o f the bills, does not have any exemption, as such, and loss from the sale or other disposition o f Treasury bills does not have any special treat ment, as such, under the Internal Revenue Code o f 1954. The bills are subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, whether Federal or State, but are exem pt from all taxa tion 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. F or purposes o f taxation the amount o f discount at which Treasury bills are originally sold by the United States is considered to be interest Under Sections 454 (b ) and 1221 (5 ) o f the Internal Revenue Code o f 1954 the amount o f discount at which bills issued hereunder are sold is not considered to accrue until such bills are sold, redeemed or otherwise disposed of, and such bills are excluded from consideration as capital assets. A ccordingly, the ow ner o f Treasury bills (other than life insurance com panies) issued hereunder need include in his incom e 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 Departm ent Circular N o. 418, Revised, and this notice, prescribe the terms o f the Treasury bills and govern the conditions o f their issue. Copies o f the circular may be obtained from any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch. PLEASE NOTE, in the second paragraph o f the Treasury’s notice, the special provision relating to receipt o f tenders at the Federal Reserve Banks o f Philadelphia and Chicago and the Baltimore Branch o f the Federal Reserve Bank o f Richmond.
