EXCEPT INTERBANK AND U. S. GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTS

Bank debits to demand deposit accounts, except interbank and U. S. Government accounts,
as reported by banks in 344 leading centers for the month of October aggregated $230 billion.
During the past three months debits amounted to $654 billion or 10.1 per cent above the total
reported for the corresponding period a year ago. At banks in New York City there was an increase
of 12.2 per cent compared with the corresponding three-months period a year ago; at 6 other centers
the increase was 8.6 per cent; and at 337 other centers it was 9.1 per cent.
Preliminary estimates of the annual rates of turnover of demand deposits, without seasonal
adjustment, in October are 56.9 at New York City, 31*4 at 6 other centers, and 24.0 at 337 other
centers.

r/ Revised figures: Albany, Georgia, for 1959: January 47,842, February 42,076, March 46,056,
April 46,870, May 48,200, June 51,622, July 53,844, August 53,256. Revised to exclude interbank
debits erroneously reported by a reporting office beginning with January. Back figures have not
been revised, but it is estimated that the totals reported for 1958 would be decreased by
approximately 25 per cent.
