To A ll Incorporated Banks and Trust Companies, and Others
Concerned, in the Second Federal Reserve District:

Follow ing is the text o f a notice issued by the T reasury D epartm ent:
The Department of the Treasury, by this public notice, invites tenders
for two series of Treasury bills totaling approximately $8,000 million, to
be issued July 23, 1981. This offering will result in a paydown for the
Treasury of about $375 million, as the maturing bills are outstanding in
the amount of $8,368 million, including $1,840 million currently held by
Federal Reserve Banks as agents for foreign and international monetary
authorities and $1,277 million currently held by Federal Reserve Banks
for their own account. The two series offered are as follows:
91-day bills (to maturity date) for approximately $4,000 million,
representing an additional amount of bills dated April 23,
1981, and to mature October 22, 1981 (CUS1P No. 912793
7X8), currently outstanding in the amount of $4,048 million,
the additional and original bills to be freely interchangeable.
182-day bills for approximately $4,000 million, to be dated
July 23, 1981, and to mature January 21, 1982 (CUS1P No.
912794 AC8).
Both series of bills will be issued for cash and in exchange for Treasury
bills maturing July 23, 1981. Tenders from Federal Reserve Banks for
themselves and as agents for foreign and international monetary
authorities will be accepted at the weighted average prices of accepted
competitive tenders. Additional amounts of the bills may be issued to
Federal Reserve Banks, as agents for foreign and international monetary
authorities, to the extent that the aggregate amount of tenders for such
accounts exceeds the aggregate amount of 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. Both series of bills will be issued entirely in book-entry
form in a minimum amount of $10,000 and in any higher $5,000 multiple,
on the records either of the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, or of
the Department of the Treasury.
Tenders will be received at Federal Reserve Banks and Branches and at
the Bureau of the Public Debt, Washington, D.C. 20226, up to 1:30 p.m.,
Eastern Daylight Saving time, Monday, July 20, 1981. Form PD 4632-2
(for 26-week series) or Form PD 4632-3 (for 13-week series) should be
used to submit tenders for bills to be maintained on the book-entry
records of the Department of the Treasury.
Each tender must be for a minimum of $10,000. Tenders over $10,000
must be in multiples of $5,000. In the case of competitive tenders, the
price offered must be expressed on the basis of 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 of
New York their positions in and borrowings on such securities may sub­
mit tenders for account of customers, if the names of 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
of any net long position in the bills being offered if such position is in
excess of $200 million. This information should reflect positions held as
of 12:30 p.m., Eastern time, on the day of the auction. Such positions

would include bills acquired through “ when issued” trading, and futures
and forward transactions as well as holdings of outstanding bills with the
same maturity date as the new offering, e.g., bills with three months to
maturity previously offered as six-month bills. Dealers, who make
primary markets in Government securities and report daily to the Federal
Reserve Bank of 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 bills being offered
exceeds $200 million.
Payment for the full par amount of the bills applied for must accom­
pany all tenders submitted for bills to be maintained on the book-entry
records of the Department of 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.
No 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 of
Federal Reserve Banks and Branches.
Public announcement will be made by the Department of the Treasury
of the amount and price range of accepted bids. Competitive bidders will
be advised of the acceptance or rejection of their tenders. The Secretary
of 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 each issue 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) of accepted com­
petitive bids for the respective issues.
Settlement for accepted tenders for bills to be maintained on the bookentry records of Federal Reserve Banks and Branches must be made or
completed at the Federal Reserve Bank or Branch on July 23, 1981, in
cash or other immediately-available funds or in Treasury bills maturing
July 23, 1981. Cash adjustments will be made for differences between the
par value of the maturing bills accepted in exchange and the issue price of
the new bills.
Under Sections 454(b) and 1221(5) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1954 the amount of 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 of 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 of the Treasury Circulars, Public Debt Series—Nos.
26-76 and 27-76, and this notice, prescribe the terms of these Treasury
bills and govern the conditions of their issue. Copies of the circulars and
tender forms may be obtained from any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch,
or from the Bureau of the Public Debt.

This Bank will receive tenders for both series up to 1:30 p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving time, Monday, July 20, 1981,
at the Securities Department of its Head Office and at its Buffalo Branch. Tender forms for both series are enclosed.
Please use the appropriate forms to submit tenders and return them in the enclosed envelope marked “ Tender for
Treasury Bills.’’ Forms for submitting tenders directly to the Treasury are available from the Government Bond 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. Payment fo r 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 Treasury securities maturing
