(For Immediate Release)

HJ^.I

July 28, 1949

CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS

During the week ended July 27 member bank reserve balances increased
$71,000,000. Additions to member bank reserves resulted from decreases of
$53,000,000 in nonmember deposits and other Federal Reserve accounts, $33,000,000
in money in circulation $3,000,000 in Treasury cash and $2,000,000 in Treasury
deposits with Federal Reserve Banks, and an increase of $2.^000,000 in gold stock,
offset in part by a decrease of $21,000,000 in Reserve Bank credit. Excess
reserves of member banks on July 27 were estimated to be approximately
$940,000,000«
Holdings of loans, discounts and advances increased $56,000,000 and of
United States Government securities $16,000,000. The increase in holdings of
United States Government securities reflects an increase of $67,000,000 in bills
and a decrease of $51,000,000 in certificates.
Changes in member bank reserve balances and related items during the
week and the year ended July 27* 194-9 were as follows:
