BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM H.4.1 October 13, 1950 (For Immediate Release) CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS During the week ended October 11 member bank reserve balances increased $163 million. Additions to member bank reserves resulted from a decrease of $340 million in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and an increase of $72 million in Reserve Bank credit, offset in part by increases of $151 million in money in circulation, $4l million in nonmember deposits and other Federal Reserve accounts, and $8 million in Treasury cash holdings, and a decrease of $50 million in gold stock. Excess reserves of member banks on October 11 were estimated to be approximately $ 9 8 0 million. Holdings of loans, discounts and advances increased $23 million and of United States Government securities $132 million, the latter change reflecting increases of $ 9 8 million in bonds, $40 million in notes, and $3 million in certificates, and a decrease of $9 million in bills. Changes in member bank reserve balances and related items during the week and the year ended October 11, 1950 were as follows: Increase or decrease since Oct. 11, 1950 Oct. 4, 1950 Oct. 12 1949 (In millions of dollars) U.
