T he bills of both series w ill be issued on a discount basis under com petitive and noncom petitive bidding as hereinafter provided, and at maturity their face am ount will be payable without interest. T hey w ill 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 (m aturity value). Tenders w ill be received at Federal R eserve Banks and Branches up to the closing hour, one-thirty p.m., Eastern Standard time, W ednesday, N ovem ber 22, 1967. Tenders will not be received at the Treasury Departm ent, W ashington. Each tender m ust be for an even multiple of $1,000, and in the case of com petitive tenders the price offered m ust be expressed on the basis of 100, w ith not more than three decimals, e.g., 99.925. Fractions may not be used. (N otw ithstanding the fact that the one-year bills w ill run for 366 days, the discount rate w ill 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 w ill be supplied by Federal Reserve Banks or Branches on application therefor. Banking institutions generally m ay submit tenders for account o f custom ers, provided the names of the custom ers are set forth in such tenders. Others than banking institutions will not be permitted to submit tenders except for their ow n account. Tenders will be received w ithout deposit from incorporated banks and trust com panies and from responsible and recognized dealers in investm ent securities. T enders from others m ust be accompanied by paym ent o f 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. Im m ediately after the closing hour, tenders will be opened at the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, follow ing which public announcement will be made by the Treasury Department of the amount and price range of accepted bids. T hose sub m itting tenders will be advised of the acceptance or rejection thereof. T he 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, noncom petitive tenders for each issue for $200,000 or less without stated price from any one bidder will be accepted in full at the average price (in three decim als) of accepted com petitive bids for the respective issues. Settlem ent for accepted tenders in accordance with the bids must be made or completed at the Federal Reserve Bank on N ovem ber 30, 1967, in cash or other im mediately available funds or in a like face amount of Treasury bills maturing N ovem ber 30, 1967. Cash and exchange tenders w ill receive equal treatment. Cash adjustm ents will be made for differences between the par value of maturing bills accepted in exchange and the issue price of the new bills. The incom e 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 im posed 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 otherw ise 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, w hether 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 D epartm ent Circular No. 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 for both series up to 1 :30 p.m., Eastern Standard time, Wednesday, November 22, 1967, at the Securities Departm ent of its Head Office and at its Buffalo Branch. Tender forms for the respective series are enclosed.
