Net change in commercial and
industrial loans

Note: The data in the first column are based on the revised loan classification;
"beginning this week, changes in commercial and industrial loans exclude loans to
sales finance companies, and certain other nonbank financial concerns. T e cumu
lative figures in the columns for prior periods have been adjusted only by the
exclusion of those loans previously classified as to sales finance companies.
Thus, the three columns are not strictly comparable.
