The average of total reserves of member banks decreased
slightly in the latest statement week to $35,445 million. Required

and other deposits with Federal Reserve Banks were the major factors
absorbing reserves in the latest statement week* Partially offsetting
these reserve drains were declines in foreign deposits with Federal
Reserve Banks and other Federal Reserve liabilities and capital. In
addition5 System Open Market operations provided $705 million reserves
net, on a weekly average basis through outright purchases of Treasury
bills and repurchase agreements.
