Offering of $1,500,000,000 of Special 365-Day Treasury Bills
Dated January 15, 1961

Maturing January 15, 1962

To A ll B anking Institutions, and Others Concerned,
in the Sccond Federal R eserv e D istrict:

Following is the text o f a notice issued by the Treasury Department for release today:
The Treasury Department, by this public notice, invites
tenders for $1,500,000,000, or thereabouts, of 365-day Treasury
bills, for cash and in exchange for Treasury bills maturing
January 15, 1961, in the amount of $1,503,740,000, to be issued
on a discount basis under competitive and noncompetitive
bidding as hereinafter provided. The bills of this series will be
dated January 15, 1961, and will mature January 15, 1962, when
the face amount will be payable without interest. They will be
issued in bearer form only, and in denominations of $1,000,
$5,000, $10,000, $100,000, $500,000 and $1,000,000 (maturity
value).
Tenders will be received at Federal Reserve Banks and
Branches up to the closing hour, one-thirty o’clock p.m., East­
ern Standard time, Wednesday, January 11, 1961. Tenders
will not be received at the Treasury Department, Washington.
Each tender must be for an even multiple of $1,000, and in
the case of competitive tenders the price offered must be
expressed on the basis of 100, with not more than three
decimals, e.g., 99.925. Fractions may not be used. (Notw ith­
standing the fact that these bills will run for 365 days, the
discount rate will be computed on a bank discount basis of
360 days, as is currently the practice on all issues of Treasury
bills.) It is urged that tenders be made on the printed forms
and forwarded in the special envelopes which will be supplied
by Federal Reserve Banks or Branches on application therefor.
Others than banking institutions will not be permitted to
submit tenders except for their own account. Tenders will be
received without deposit from incorporated banks and trust
companies and from responsible and recognized dealers in
investment securities. Tenders from others must be accom­
panied by payment of 2 percent of the face amount of Treasury
bills applied for, unless the tenders are accompanied by an
express guaranty of payment by an incorporated bank or trust
company.
All bidders are required to agree not to purchase or to sell,
or to make any agreements with respect to the purchase or
sale or other disposition of any bills of this issue, until after
one-thirty o ’clock p.m., Eastern Standard time, Wednesday,
January 11, 1961.
Immediately after the closing hour, tenders will be opened
at the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, following which
public announcement will be made by the Treasury Department

of the amount and price range of accepted bids. Those sub­
mitting tenders will be advised of the acceptance or rejection
thereof. The Secretary of 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, noncompetitive tenders for $400,000 or less
without stated price from any one bidder will be accepted in
full at the average price (in three decimals) of accepted com ­
petitive bids. Settlement for accepted tenders in accordance
with the bids must be made or completed at the Federal
Reserve Bank on January 16, 1961, in cash or other immediately
available funds or in a like face amount of Treasury bills
maturing January 15, 1961. Cash and exchange tenders will
receive equal treatment. Cash adjustments will be made for
differences between the par value of maturing bills accepted in
exchange and the issue price of the new bills.
The income derived from Treasury bills, whether interest
or gain from the sale or other disposition of the bills, does not
have any exemption, as such, and loss from the sale or other
disposition of Treasury bills does not have any special treat­
ment, as such, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954. The
bills are subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise
taxes, whether Federal or State, but are exempt from all taxa­
tion now or hereafter imposed on the principal or interest
thereof by any State, or any of the possessions of the United
States, or by any local taxing authority. For purposes of
taxation the amount of discount at which Treasury bills are
originally sold by the United States is considered to be interest.
Under Sections 454(b) and 1221(5) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1954 the amount of 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. Accordingly,
the owner of 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, Revised, and this
notice, prescribe the terms of the Treasury bills and govern
the conditions of their issue. Copies of the circular may be
obtained from any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch.

This Bank will receive tenders up to 1:30 p.m., Eastern Standard time, Wednesday, January 11, 1961, at the
Securities Department o f its Head Office and at its Buffalo Branch. Please use the form on the reverse side of
this circular to submit a tender, and return it in the enclosed yellow envelope marked “ Tender for Special Treasury
Bills.” Tenders may be submitted by telegraph, subject to written confirmation; they may not be submitted by tele­
phone. P a y m e n t f o r th e T r e a s u r y bills ca n n o t b e m a d e b y c re d it th rou g h th e T r e a s u r y T a x and L o a n A c c o u n t.
