Copies of Amendments Deleting Certain Agency Provisions

To All Banks, Members of National Securities Exchanges,
and Others Interested, in the Second Federal Reserve District:

Our Circular No. 6162, dated May 7, 1968, contained the text of a
statement by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
announcing the deletion from its margin regulations of certain agency
provisions— sections 207.4(/), 220.7(/), and 221.3 (u) of Regulations G,
T, and U, respectively.
Enclosed are copies of amendments to Regulations G, T, and U
reflecting the deletion of those provisions, except that for persons who
may be subject to Regulation G, only the amendment to that regulation
is enclosed. The amendments also reflect the redesignation of section
207.4 (g) of Regulation G and section 221.3(v) of Regulation U as
sections 207.4(/) and 221.3 (u), respectively.
Additional copies of the amendments will be furnished upon
request.
