BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM H.4.1 (For Immediate Release) September 14, 1950 CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS During the week ended September 13 member bank reserve balances increased §254 million. Additions to member bank reserves resulted from an increase of $227 million in Reserve Bank credit and decreases of §108 million in money in circulation, f>6 million in Treasury cash holdings, and $51 million in nonmember deposits and other Federal Reserve accounts, offset in part by an increase of $>137 million in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks . Excess reserves of member banks on September 1$ were estimated to be approximately $990 million. Holdings of loans, discounts and advances decreased $28 million, while holdings of United States Government securities increased $122 million, the latter change reflecting increases of $949 million in bonds and $103 million in certificates, and decreases of §717 million in bills and $213 million in notes.
