CONDITION OF FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS

During the week ended June 9 member bank reserve balances increased
#75,000,000. Additions to member bank reserves arose from decreases of
$52,000,000 in money in circulation, #30,000/000 in Treasury deposits with
Federal Reserve banks, and #18,000,000 in Treasury cash other than inactive
gold, offset in part by an increase of #23,000,000 in nonmember deposits and
other Federal Reserve accounts. Excess reserves of member banks on June 9
were estimated to be approximately #930,000,000, an increase of #70,000,000
for the week. Inactive gold included in the gold stock and Treasury cash
amounted to #886,000,000 on June 9, an increase of #90,000,000 for the week.
