The following statement was issued today by the Treasury Department:

The Department of the Treasury will auction $2,500 million of 2-year notes to refund SI.481 million of
notes held by the public maturing October 31, 1976, and to raise $1,019 million new cash. Additional amounts
of these notes may be issued at the average price of accepted tenders to Government accounts and to Federal
Reserve B a n k s for their own account in exchange for $98 million maturing notes held by them, and to Federal
R e s e r v e B a n k s a s agents of foreign and international monetary authorities for new cash only.
Printed on the reverse side is a table summarizing the highlights of the offering. Copies of the official
offering circular will be furnished upon request.
Bidders submitting noncompetitive tenders for the notes should realize that it is possible that the
average price may be above par, in which case they would have to pay more than the face value for the
securities.
If payment for the notes is made by check, the check should be a certified personal check or an
official bank check, payable on its face to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; cheeks endorsed to this
Bank will not be accepted.
If there is any doubt that tenders sent by mail will reach this Bank or its Branch by October 21.
bidders should use other means of transmitting their tenders. The tender form will be mailed to you on
Monday.
Telephone inquiries regarding this offering may be made by calling Telephone No. 212-791-5823,
