STAT&jENT FOE T:IS PRESS Released for publication Friday morning, May 20; not earlier. :.lSt .IQ?}. Federal Reserve Board May 19, 1921 • Fiscal operations of the Government, including the redemption on and after -lay 16 of ever $200,000,000 of Treasury certificates, payment of the semi-annual interest on the Second Liberty bonds and issuance of about $256,000,000 of new loan certificates are reflected in the Federal Reserve Board's latest weekly bank statement issued as at close of business on Hay 18, 1921 Redemption of Treasury certificates enabled the member banks to reduce considerably their indebtedness to the Reserve banks- Ums the latter's holdings of paper secured by Government obligations declined by $142,800,000 and those cf other discounted paper - by about $50,000,000. Acceptances purchased in open market show an increase of $5,100,000, while Pittman certificates fell off $3,000,000- An in c r e a s e d $125,300,000 in other Treasury certificates is due m the first place to the taking by five Reserve banks of $91,000,000 of special certificates tc cover advances to the Govern ment^ pending collection of funds from depositary institutions, also to the purcnase oy the New York Reserve bank of certificates from local member banks. In consequence of the above changes, total earning assets show a further decline of $65,100,000, and on May 18 stood at $2,314,000,000, compared with $3,221,400,000 on May 21 of last year. Of the total holdings of $774,900,000 of paper secured by Government obligations, $512,500,000, or 66.1 per cent, were secured by Liberty and other U. S. bonds; $215,400,000, or 27-8 per cent,- by Victory notes, and I 7(000,000, or 6 .1 per cent - by Treasury certificates, compared with §578,900,000, $250,100,000 and $88,700,000 reported the week before. Discounted paper held by the New York Bank includes $17,800,000 of bills discounted for the Richmond and Minneapolis banks, while bills held y the Boston an- Cleveland hanks include $6,100,000 of bills discounted for the Dallas bank, the total of bills ^ disco'unted for other Reserve banks thus showing an increase for the week from $lU, 300,000 to $ 23, 500, 000. Government deposits axe shown $1,800,000 larger than the week before reserve deposits show a decrease of $ 22, 500, 000, other deposits, compesed’ v cashier's checks and non-members1 clearing accounts, increased by 93,^ 00, 000, and total deposits decreased by $ l 6 ,800,000• P'es3rve note circulation shows a further decline for the week of $37,500,000, the May 18 total of $2,767,400,000 being $637,500,000, or 15.7 per cent, below the peak figure of December 23 , 1920, and 10.3 per cent below the total reported on May 21 of last year. For the week the banks report a further gain of $ 15 , 300,000 of gold reserves, largely through purchases of imported gold, as against a loss of about ^>4,000,COO in silver and legals. The caabined result of a gain of $11,300,000 in reserves and of the above mentioned reductions in deposits and note liabilities, is seen in a rise of the reserve ratio from 55-9 to 56.8 per cent.
