Moderate liquidation of all classes of investments, except certificates of in debtedness, is indicated ty the Federal Reserve Board's weekly statement showing con dition on August S of 770 member banks in leading cities. Payment by member banks outside of New York City for 1920 loan and tax certifi cates * accounts for the total increase of total holdings of certificates of indebtedness. 25 •£ millions shown in the For the New York banks a net de crease under this head of 10*5 millions is noted. United States bonds on hand show a decline of 3-*^ millions, Victory notes - a decline of 8.5 millions, while war paper holdings decreased 2 6 .8 millions*. largely at the Now York banks. All other loans and investments fell off l6.S millions, the New York and Chicago banks showing most of the decrease. Aggregate holdings of United States war securities and war paper declined from 3^70 to 3^56.6 millions and constitute, just as the week before, total loans and investments, of all reporting banks. decline in this ratio from 27*5 to 26.9 23 *^- per cent of the For the New York City banks a per cent is noted. Government deposits went up 3^*3 millions, and time deposits - 21.2 millions. Demand deposits (net) show declines of 63*6 and 5*3 millions for the New York City and Chicago banks; the total decline for all reporting banks is considerably less, viz: 31*9 millions, owing to the gains under this head reported by the .banks outside the two largest bank centers. Total reserve balances with the Federal Reserve banks show but a nominal charge, while cash in vault went up 12*2 millions.
