TELEPHONE SERVICE FOR TREASURY SECURITIES INFORMATION
Mail Notification to Individuals Discontinued
To U.S. Treasury Note and Bond Investors
Residing Within New York City:
It has been our normal practice in the past to mail notices o f U .S. Treasury note and bond
offerings to you within 24 hours after release o f the information to us by the Treasury. However, we
have found that (a) the cost of each mailing is very high, (b) very few of the addressees subscribe to
the securities offered, and (c) we often receive complaints that the notices and forms do not arrive in
time for an investor to make use of them. In view of these facts and the availability of the telephone
service described below, this Bank will discontinue the practice o f mailing notifications of forth
coming U .S. Treasury note and bond offerings to individual investors.
O
ut
24 - h o u r telephone recording service will provide you with the most current information
regarding forthcoming U .S. Treasury securities offerings. You may obtain information on all an
nounced Treasury offerings by dialing 791-7773. (Results of completed auctions may be obtained by
dialing 791-5823.) In addition, announcements of Treasury note and bond sales are carried widely
by the financial press and by many large-city newspapers.
We believe that this telephone recording service provides a much more timely method for ob
taining information concerning forthcoming Treasury issues and is consistent with the Treasury De
partment’s policy of issuing its debt obligations at the lowest possible cost to the taxpayer.
If, upon obtaining information about a forthcoming auction by telephone, you wish to invest in
a Treasury note or bond issue, you may do so by —
(a) submitting a tender and your payment in person, no later than the announced auction deadline,
at the Federal Reserve Bank, 33 Liberty Street, New York City, or
(b) submitting a letter by mail to our Government Bond Division, c o n ta in in g th e in fo r m a tio n d e
s c r i b e d o n th e r e v e r s e s id e o f th is n o tic e . The letter must be postmarked no later than the day before the
auction deadline and must be accompanied by your payment.

c) Whether you want bearer or registered securities. * For registered securities you must specify the

Bank o f New York, 33 Liberty Street, New York, NY 10045, highlighting on the lower left portion
of the envelope, “TENDER FOR TREASURY SECURITIES.”
