and
STATEMENT OF CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS
The average of daily figures of total member bank reserves held during

reflected in part an increase of $71 million in member bank reserve balances at
the Federal Reserve Banks. Estimated required reserves decreased $15 million;
and estimated excess reserves increased $78 million to $442 million. Member bank
borrowings at the Federal Reserve Banks exceeded excess reserves by $82 million,
compared with the revised figure of $197 million the week before.
The principal changes supplying average reserve balances with Federal
Reserve Banks were decreases of $246 million in currency in circulation, $173 million in "other" deposits with Federal Reserve Banks, and $107 million in Treasury
deposits with Federal Reserve Banks, and an increase of $27 million in U• S. Government securities bought outright. The principal offsetting changes were decreases
of $232 million in Federal Reserve float, $207 million in U. S. Government
securities held under repurchase agreement, and $37 million in member bank borrowings. Total Reserve Bank credit decreased $456 million.
As of Wednesday, April 27, holdings of U. S. Government securities,bought
outright were $55 million higher than a week earlier, U. S. Government securities
held under repurchase agreement were $35 million lower, and member bank borrowings
were $145 million higher.
