Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System
May 7, 19U2

Released for publication
Friday morning, May 8j
not earlier.

CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BnNKS

During the week ended May 6 member bank reserve balances decreased
$218,000,000. Reductions in member bank reserves arose from increases of
$122,000,000 in money in circulation, $248,000,000 in Treasury deposits with
Federal Reserve Banks, and $7,000,000 in Treasury cash, offset in part by increases
of $129,000,000 in Reserve Bank credit, $14,000,000 in gold stock, and $5,000,000
in Treasury currency, and a decrease of $10,000,000 in nonmember deposits and
other Federal Reserve accounts. Excess reserves of member banks on May 6 were
estimated to be approximately $2,6^0,000,000, a decrease of $130,000,000 for the
week.
The principal changes in holdings of bills and securities were the addition
of $21,000,000 of United States Treasury certificates, and increases of $38,000,000
in bonds and $27,000,000 in bills.
Changes in member bank reserve balances and related items during the week
