Offering of $1,000,000,000 of Special 365-Day Treasury Bills
Dated September 30, 1965

Due September 30, 1966

T o A ll Incorporated Banks and Trust Companies, and O thers
Concerned, in the Second Federal R eserv e D istrict:

Following is the text of a notice issued by the Treasury Department, released for publication today at 4 p.m., East­
ern Daylight Saving time:
The Treasury Department, by this public notice, invites
tenders for $1,000,000,000, or thereabouts, of 365-day Treasury
bills, for cash and in exchange for Treasury bills maturing
September 30, 1965, m the amount of $3,202,999,000, to be issued
on a discount basis under competitive and noncompetitive
bidding, as hereinafter provided. The bills of this series will be
dated September 30, 1965, and will mature September 30, 1966,
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, $50,000, $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 p.m., Eastern
Daylight Saving time, Friday, September 24, 1965. 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. (Notwithstanding 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.
Banking institutions generally may submit tenders for
account of customers provided the names of the customers are
set forth in such tenders. 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
accompanied 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.
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 $200,000 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 September 30, 1965, in cash or other immedi­
ately available funds or in a like face amount of Treasury bills
maturing September 30, 1965. 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 N o. 418 (current revision)
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 Daylight Saving time, Friday, September 24, 1965, at the
Securities Department of 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 telephone.
Paym ent for the Treasury bills cannot be made by credit through the Treasury T ax and Loan Account. Settlement
must be made in cash or other immediately available funds or maturing Treasury bills.
