COLLECTIONS DELAYED BY STORM CONDITIONS

To the Member and Nonmember Clearing Banks
of the Second Federal Reserve District:

Storm conditions in this District have disrupted transportation and
communication facilities, and have prevented some banks from opening for
business yesterday and today.

In view of these conditions, there may be

delays in presentment of cash items and noncash items, in return of unpaid
items, and in forwarding advices of nonpayment of items payable in the areas
affected.
We will continue to accept and dispatch cash items and noncash items
deposited with us payable in the affected areas and to give credit for cash
items in accordance with our time schedules, but we reserve the right to charge
back any unpaid items at any time.




ALFRED HAYES
President
