New Certificate Issue

Circular No. 876

Federal Reserve Bank of New York
Fiscal Agent of the United States

Offering of United States of America
Four and Three-Quarter Per Cent Treasury Certificates of Indebtedness
SERIES TS-1929

Dated and Bearing Interest from October 15, 1928

Due September 15, 1929

To all Banks, Trust Companies, Savings Banks, Bankers, Investment Dealers,
Principal Corporations and Others Concerned in the Second Federal Reserve District:

The Secretary of the Treasury, under the authority of the Act approved September 24,
1917, as amended, offers for subscription, at par and accrued interest, through the Federal
Eeserve Banks, Treasury certificates of indebtedness of Series TS-1929, dated and bearing interest from October 15, 1928, payable September 15, 1929, with interest at the rate of four and
three-quarters per cent per annum, payable on a semiannual basis.
Applications will be received at the Federal Reserve Banks.
Bearer certificates will be issued in denominations of $500, $1,000, $5,000, $10,000, and
$100,000. The certificates will have two interest coupons attached, payable March 15, 1929
and September 15, 1929.
The certificates of said series shall be exempt, both as to principal and interest, from
all taxation now or hereafter imposed by the United States, any State, or any of the possessions of the United States, or by any local taxing authority, except (a) estate or inheritance taxes,
and (b) graduated additional income taxes, commonly known as surtaxes, and excess-profits and
war-profits taxes, now or hereafter imposed by the United States, upon the income or profits
of individuals, partnerships, associations, or corporations. The interest on an amount of bonds
and certificates authorized by said act approved September 24, 1917, and amendments thereto,
the principal of which does not exceed in the aggregate $5,000, owned by any individual, partnership, association, or corporation, shall be exempt from the taxes provided for in clause (b)
above.
The certificates of this series will be accepted at par during such time and under such
rules and regulations as shall be prescribed or approved by the Secretary of the Treasury,
in payment of income and profits taxes payable at the maturity of the certificates. The certificates of this series will be acceptable to secure deposits of public moneys, but will not bear
the circulation privilege.
The right is reserved to reject any subscription and to allot less than the amount of certificates applied for and to close the subscriptions at any time without notice. The Secretary
of the Treasury also reserves the right to make allotment in full upon applications for smaller
amounts, and to make reduced allotments upon, or to reject, applications for larger amounts,




and to make classified allotments and allotments upon a graduated scale; and his action in
these respects will be final. Allotment notices will be sent out promptly upon allotment, and
the basis of the allotment will be publicly announced.
Payment at par and accrued interest for certificates allotted must be made on or before
October 15, 1928, or on later allotment. After allotment and upon payment, Federal Reserve
Banks may issue interim receipts pending delivery of the definitive certificates. Any qualified
depositary will be permitted to make payment by credit for certificates allotted to it for itself
and its customers up to any amount for which it shall be qualified in excess of existing deposits,
when so notified by the Federal Reserve Bank of its district.
As fiscal agents of the United States, Federal Reserve Banks are authorized and requested
to receive subscriptions and to make allotments on the basis and up to the amounts indicated by
the Secretary of the Treasury to the Federal Reserve Banks of the respective districts.
New York, October 8, 1928.
