Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System
May 29» 1941.

CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS
During the week ended May 28 member bank reserve balances increased
$17,000,000* Additions to member bank reserves arose from decreases of
$59,000,000 in Treasury cash, $15,000,000 in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve
Banks and $46,000,000 in nonmember deposits and other Federal Reserve accounts and
increases of $8,000,000 in gold stock and $2,000,000 in Treasury currency, offset
in part by an increase of $108,000,000 in money in circulation and a decrease of
$6,000,000 in Reserve Bank credit. Excess reserves of member banks on May 28 ?/ere
estimated to be approximately $5,820,000,000, a decrease of $40,000,000 for the
week.
Changes in member bank reserve balances and related items during the week
and the year ended May 28, 1941, were as follows*
