BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM H.4,1 (For Immediate Release) March 27, 1952 CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS Member Bank Reserves and Related Items During the week ended March 26, Member bank reserves decreased $762 million. The principal change reducing reserves was a decrease of $ 8 0 3 million in Reserve Bank credit, which was offset in part by a decrease of $32 million in Money in circulation. The decrease of $ 8 0 3 million in Reserve Bank credit resulted from decreases of $550 million in Float and $297 million in U. S. Government securities, and an increase of $44 million in Loans, discounts and advances. Holdings of U. S. Government securities, which include $14 million certificates of indebtedness -- special series, issued to the Federal Reserve Banks, reflected a decrease of $297 million in certificates.
