,000,000 compared with the corresponding week in 193^*
On March 13, total Reserve bank credit amounted to $2,^60,000,000, an increase
of $8,000,000 for the week. This increase corresponds with increases of
$33,000,000 in member bank reserve balances, of $11,000,000 in Treasury cash and
deposits with Federal Reserve banks, and $2,000,000 in nonmember deposits and
other Federal Reserve accounts, offset in part by a decrease of $2^,000,000 in
money in circulation and increases of $5,000,000 in monetary gold stock, and
$8,000,000 in Treasury and national bank currency.
Relatively small changes were reported in holdings of discounted and purchased

States bonds was offset by increases of $2,000,000 each in United States Treasury
notes and Treasury bills.
