Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System
June 22, 1939
CONDITION OF FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS

During the week ended June 21 member bank reserve balances decreased
$2 ,000,000, Reductions in member bank reserves arose from increases of
$13,000,000 in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve banks and $10,000,000 in
nonmember deposits and other Federal Reserve accounts and a decrease of
$21,000,000 in Reserve bank credit, offset in part by increases of $33 ,000,000
in gold stock and $5,000,000 in Treasury currency, and a decrease of $4,000,000
in Treasury cash. Excess reserves of member banks on June 21 were estimated to
be approximately $4,230,000,000, a decrease of $30 ,000,000 for the week.
Changes in member bank reserve balances and related items during the week and
the year ended June 21, 1939, were as follows:
