BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM H.4.1 (For Immediate Release) July 27, 1950 CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS During the week ended July 26 member bank reserve balances increased $2$8 million. Additions to member bank reserves resulted from an increase of $l6l million in Reserve Bank credit and decreases of $114 million in money in circulation, $21 million in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks, and $18 million in nonmember deposits and other Federal Reserve accounts, offset in part by a decrease of $50 million in gold stock and an increase of $5 million in Treasury cash holdings. Excess reserves of member banks on July 26 were estimated to be approximately $850 million. Holdings of loans, discounts and advances increased $151 million and of United States Government securities $95 million, the latter change reflecting an-' increase of $429 million in bills and decreases of $289 million in bonds and $45 million in notes. Changes in member bank reserve balances and related items during the week and the year ended July 26, were as follows: Increase or decrease since July 26, 1950 July 19, 1950 July 27, 1949 (In millions of dollars) U.
