TREASURY ANNOUNCES NOTE OFFERINGS TOTALING $13,500 MILLION
To All Banking Institutions, and Others Concerned,
in the Second Federal Reserve District:

The following is quoted from a statement issued by the Treasury Department:
The Treasury will raise about $9,262 million o f new cash by issuing $7,750 million o f 2-year notes, and
$5,750 m illion o f 5-year 2-month notes. This offering will also refund $4,238 million o f 2-year notes maturing
May 31, 1983. The $4,238 million o f maturing 2-year notes are those held by the public, including $648 million
currently held by Federal Reserve Banks as agents for foreign and international monetary authorities.
The $13,500 m illion is being offered to the public, and any amounts tendered by Federal Reserve Banks as
agents for foreign and international monetary authorities (including the $648 million o f maturing 2-year notes)
will be added to that amount.
In addition to the public holdings, Government accounts and Federal Reserve Banks, for their own
accounts, hold $525 m illion o f the maturing securities that may be refunded by issuing additional amounts o f
the new notes at the average prices o f accepted competitive tenders.

The Treasury will postpone the 2-year and 5-year 2-month note auctions unless it has assurance o f Congres­
sional action on legislation to raise the temporary debt ceiling before the scheduled auction dates o f May 24 and
May 25, 1983, respectively.
Printed on the reverse side is a table summarizing the highlights o f the offerings. Copies o f the official
offering circulars will be furnished upon request directed to our Government Bond Division (Tel. No.
212-791-6619). In addition, enclosed are copies o f the forms to be used in submitting tenders.
This Bank will receive tenders at the Securities Department o f its Head O ffice and at its Buffalo Branch
on the dates and times specified on the reverse side o f this circular as the deadlines for receipt o f tenders. A ll
c o m p e t i t i v e t e n d e r s , whether transmitted by mail or by other means, must reach this Bank or its Branch by
that time on the specified dates. However, for investors who wish to submit noncompetitive tenders and
who find it more convenient to mail their tenders than to present them in person, the official offering cir­
cular for each offering provides that n o n c o m p e t i t i v e tenders will be considered timely received if they are
mailed to this Bank or its Branch under a postmark no later than the date preceding the date specified for
receipt o f tenders.
Bidders submitting noncompetitive tenders 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.
Payment with a tender may be in the form o f a personal check, which need not be certified, an official
bank check, or a Federal funds check (a check drawn by a depository institution on its Federal Reserve
account). All checks must be drawn payable to the Federal Reserve Bank o f New York; c h e c k s e n d o r s e d t o
t h i s B a n k w i l l n o t b e a c c e p t e d . Payment may also be made in cash or in Treasury securities maturing on or
before the issue date o f the securities being purchased.
Recorded messages provide information about Treasury offerings and about auction results: at the
Head O ffice — Tel. N o. 212-791-7773 (offerings) and Tel. N o. 212-791-5823 (results); at the Buffalo
Branch — Tel. N o. 716-849-5046. Additional inquiries regarding these offerings may be made by calling, at
