For immediate release
September 3, 1970

The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased
$184 million in the latest week to $28,345 million. Required reserves and excess
reserves both increased while member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks were
about unchanged from the level of the previous week.
Factors supplying and absorbing reserves for the most part displayed
only minor changes in the latest statement week. A greater than seasonal decline
in float did absorb a sizeable amount of reserves. However, this float drain
of $242 million was mostly offset by System Open Market operations which supplied
$189 million in reserves net, on a weekly average basis. These reserves were
provided largely through repurchase agreements, although some outright purchases
were made toward the end of the statement week. Member bank borrowings remained
at the level of the past two weeks and exceeded excess reserves by $471 million
compared to $535 million for the previous week.
