CONDITION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BA1IKS
During the week ended September 3 member bank reserve balances decreased
$114,000,000. Reductions in member bank reserves arose from increases of
$135,000-000 in money in circulation and $22,000,000 in Treasury cash, and a de­
crease of $40,000,000 in Reserve Bank credit, offset in part by increases of
$6,000,000 in gold stock and $2,000,000 in Treasury currency, and decreases of
$64,000,000 in Treasury deposits Tdth Federal Reserve Banks and $10 ,000,000 in
nonmember deposits and other Federal Reserve accounts. Excess reserves of nenber
banks on September 3 were estimated to be approximately $4,860,000,000, a decrease
of $130 ,000,000 for the week.
