October 5, 1979

Offering o f $3,470,000,000 o f 364-Day Treasury Bills
Dated October 16,1979

Due October 14, 1980

To All Incorporated Banks and Trust Companies, and Others
Concerned, in the Second Federal Reserve District:
F o llo w in g is th e text o f a n o tic e issu ed yesterd ay b y th e T reasu ry D epartm en t:
The Department o f the Treasury, by this public notice, invites tenders
for approximately $3,470 million o f 364-day Treasury bills to be dated
October 16, 1979, and to mature October 14, 1980 (CUSIP N o. 912793
4Q6).
This issue will not provide new cash for the Treasury as the maturing
issue is outstanding in the amount o f $3,474 million.
The bills will be issued for cash and in exchange for Treasury bills
maturing October 16, 1979. The public holds $1,441 million o f the matur­
ing issue and $2,033 million is held by Federal Reserve Banks for
themselves and as agents o f foreign and international monetary
authorities. Tenders from Federal Reserve Banks for themselves and as
agents o f foreign and international monetary authorities will be accepted
at the weighted average price o f accepted competitive tenders. Additional
amounts o f the bills may be issued to Federal Reserve Banks, as agents of
foreign and international monetary authorities, to the extent that the ag­
gregate amount o f tenders for such accounts exceeds the aggregate
amount o f maturing bills held by them.
The bills will be issued on a discount basis under competitive and non­
competitive bidding, and at maturity their par amount will be payable
without interest. This series o f bills will be issued entirely in book-entry
form in a minimum amount o f $10,000 and in any higher $5,000 multiple,
on the records either o f the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, or o f
the Department o f the Treasury.
Tenders will be received at Federal Reserve Banks and Branches and
at the Bureau o f the Public Debt, Washington, D.C. 20226, up to 1:30
p.m .. Eastern Daylight Saving time, Wednesday, October 10, 1979. Form
PD 4632-1 should be used to submit tenders for bills to be maintained on
the book-entry records o f the Department o f the Treasury.
Each tender must be for a minimum o f $10,000. Tenders over $10,000
must be in multiples o f $5,000. In the case o f competitive tenders, the
price offered must be expressed on the basis o f 100, with not more than
three decimals, e.g., 99.925. Fractions may not be used.
Banking institutions and dealers who make primary markets in
Government securities and report daily to the Federal Reserve Bank o f
New York their positions in and borrowings on such securities may sub­
mit tenders for account o f customers, if the names o f the customers and
the amount for each customer are furnished. Others are only permitted to
submit tenders for their own account. Each tender must state the amount
o f any net long position in the bills being offered if such position is in ex­
cess o f $200 million. This information should reflect positions held at the
close o f business on the day prior to the auction. Such positions would in­
clude bills acquired through “ when issued” trading, and futures and for­
ward transactions. Dealers who make primary markets in Government
securities and report daily to the Federal Reserve Bank o f New York their

positions in and borrowings on such securities, when submitting tenders
for customers, must submit a separate tender for each customer whose net
long position in the bill being offered exceeds $200 million.
Payment for the full par amount o f the bills applied for must accom­
pany all tenders submitted for bills to be maintained on the book-entry
records o f the Department o f the Treasury. A cash adjustment will be
made on all accepted tenders for the difference between the par payment
submitted and the actual issue price as determined in the auction.
N o deposit need accompany tenders from incorporated banks and
trust companies and from responsible and recognized dealers in invest­
ment securities for bills to be maintained on the book-entry records o f
Federal Reserve Banks and Branches. A deposit o f 2 percent o f the par
amount o f the bills applied for must accompany tenders for such bills
from others, unless an express guaranty o f payment by an incorporated
bank or trust company accompanies the tenders.
Public announcement will be made by the Department o f the Treasury
o f the amount and price range o f accepted bids. Competitive bidders will
be advised o f the acceptance or rejection o f their tenders. The Secretary
o f the Treasury expressly reserves the right to accept or reject any or all
tenders, in whole or in part, and the Secretary’s action shall be final. Sub­
ject to these reservations, noncompetitive tenders for $500,000 or less
without stated price from any one bidder will be accepted in full at the
weighted average price (in three decimals) o f accepted competitive bids.
Settlement for accepted tenders for bills to be maintained on the bookentry records o f Federal Reserve Banks and Branches must be made or
completed at the Federal Reserve Bank or Branch on October 16, 1979, in
cash or other immediately available funds or in Treasury bills maturing
October 16, 1979. Cash adjustments will be made for differences between
the par value o f maturing bills accepted in exchange and the issue price o f
the new bills.
Under Sections 454(b) and 1221(5) o f the Internal Revenue Code of
1954 the amount o f discount at which these bills are sold is considered to
accrue when the bills are sold, redeemed or otherwise disposed of, and the
bills are excluded from consideration as capital assets. Accordingly, the
owner o f these bills (other than life insurance companies) must include in
his or her Federal income tax return, as ordinary gain or loss, the dif­
ference between the price paid for the 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.
Department o f the Treasury Circulars, Public Debt Series—Nos.
26-76 and 27-76, and this notice, prescribe the terms o f these Treasury
bills and govern the conditions o f their issue. Copies o f the circulars and
tender forms may be obtained from any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch,
or from the Bureau o f the Public Debt.

Tenders will be received up to 1:30 p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving time, Wednesday, October 10, 1979, at the
Securities Department of this Bank’s Head Office, at our Buffalo Branch , or at the Bureau of the Public Debt. The
enclosed form should be used for submitting tenders through a financial institution. Forms for submitting tenders direct­
ly to the Treasury are available from the Treasury and Agency Issues Division of this Bank. Tenders not requiring a
deposit may be submitted by telegraph, subject to written confirmation; no tenders may be submitted by telephone. Pay­
ment for the Treasury bills cannot be made by credit through the Treasury Tax and Loan Account. Settlement must be
made in cash or other immediately available funds or in maturing Treasury bills.
