St.2867Federal Eeserve Board,
June 29 , 1922 .

CONDITION OF FEDEEAL EESEEVE BANKS.
Resumption of borrowings in some volume from the Boston and New
reserve banks following the reduction by them of the discount rate from 4-g
to U per cent is indicated by the Federal Eeserve Board's weekly bank state­
ment issued as at close of business on June 28, 1922.
Combined holdings
of discounted bills reported by the above two banks show an increase of
$5 7 , 700 , 000 , as against a further reduction of $ 1 0 , 200,000 in the total
holdings of discounted b ills shown for the other ten reserve banks. Accept­
ances purchased in open market increased by $3 2 ,6 0 0 ,0 0 0 , all the Federal
reserve banks, except those at Atlanta and Kansas City, reporting larger
holdings of this class of paper than for the previous Wednesday. United
States securities on hand increased by $ 1 ,1 0 0 ,0 0 0 , a larger increase of
Treasury certificates being offset in part by liquidation of $2,700,000 of
United States bonds and notes.
Deposit liabilities of the reserve banks,
in keeping with the increase in earning assets, show a growth of $ 8U, 900 , 000,
Federal reserve note circulation decreased by $ 1 ,9 0 0 ,0 0 0 , while cash re­
serves show a gain of about $1,0 0 0,00 0 .
In consequence of the substantial
increase in deposits the reserve ratio shows a decline for the week from
79*1 to 77-5 per cent.
Interbank shifting of gold through the gold settlement fund during the
week accounts largely for the increase of $18,800,000 in the gold reserves
of the New York bank and of $ l U ,700,000 in the combined gold reserves of
the Chicago, Cleveland and Bichmond banks.
Philadelphia reports the largest
decrease of gold reserves, v i z . , by $lU , 900 , 000 , while smaller decreases,
totaling $ 1 7 , 700 ,000 , are shown for the remaining seven banks.
Holdings of paper secured by Government obligations increased from
$lU0,700,000 to $1 8 9 ,80 0 ,0 0 0.
Of the total held $1 3 6,10 0 ,0 0 0, or 71.7 per
cent, were secured by. Liberty and other U. S. bonds, $ 6 ,1 0 0 ,0 0 0 , or J>.2 per
cent, - by Victory notes, $2 9 ,7 0 0 ,0 0 0 , or 15*6 per cent, - by Treasury notes,
and $ 1 8 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 ,or 9*5 P©? cent, by Treasury certificates, compared with
$ llU , 500 , 000, $ 6 , 700 , 000 , $ 1 1 , 700,000 and $7,800,000 reported the week before.
A summary of changes in the principal asset and lia b ility items of the
reserve banks, as compared with a week and a year ago, follows:
