BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM
H.4.1

(For Immediate Release)

July 1, 1954

CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS
Member Bank Reserves and Related Items
During the week ended June 30, Member bank reserves decreased
$8l4 million. The principal changes reducing reserves were a decrease of
$951 million in Reserve Bank credit and increases of $169 million in Money in
circulation, $38 million in Other deposits with Federal Reserve Banks, and
$17 million in Treasury cash holdings. The principal offsetting changes were
decreases of $345 million in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and
$11 million in Other F. R. accounts (net).
The decrease of $951 million in Reserve Bank credit resulted from decreases of $572 million in Loans, discounts and advances, $184 million in Float,
$102 million in U. S. Government securities bought outright, and $92 million in
U. S. Government securities held under repurchase agreement. Holdings of U. S.
Government securities bought outright reflected a decrease of $102 million in
bills.
The decrease of $375 million in estimated required reserves of member
banks reflected the lower reserve requirements which became effective at the
beginning of the week and which lessened required reserves approximately
$460 million.
