The Department of the Treasury will auction $6,200 million of 4-year notes to be issued December 31, 1984.
This issue will provide about $2,925 million new cash, as the maturing 4-year notes held by the public amount to
$3,278 million, including $402 million currently held by Federal Reserve Banks as agents for foreign and inter­
national monetary authorities.
In addition to the maturing 4-year notes, there are $7,385 million of maturing 2-year notes held by the
public. The disposition of this latter amount was announced last week. Federal Reserve Banks, as agents for
foreign and international monetary authorities, currently hold $800 million, and Government accounts and
Federal Reserve Banks for their own accounts hold $966 million of maturing 2-year and 4-year notes. The maturing
securities held by Federal Reserve Banks for their own account may be refunded by issuing additional amounts
of the new 2-year and 4-year notes at the average prices of accepted competitive tenders.
The $6,200 million is being offered to the public, and any amounts tendered by Federal Reserve Banks for
their own account, or as agents for foreign and international monetary authorities, will be added to that amount.
