CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS
During the week ended August 13 member bank reserve balances declined

Treasury cash, offset by decreases of 449,000,000 in nonmeaber deposits and other
Federal Reserve accounts and $3 ,000,000 in money in circulation and by increases
of $21,000,000 in gold stock, $16,000,000 in Reserve Bank credit and $3,000,000
in Treasury currency. Excess reserves of member banks on August 13 v/ere estimated
to be approximately $5 ,030,000,000, an increase of $10,000,000 for the week.
Changes in member bank reserve balances and related items during the week
