CONDITION OF MEMBER BAMS 111 LEADING CITIES.
Loan l i q u i d a t i o n , aggregating about $100,000,000, and a t o t a l reduction
of $ lib ,000,000 in borrowings from the Federal reserve "banks are the salient
features of member bank development during the week ending January 12, as indicated oy reports of 808 member banks in leading c i t i e s , The week saw a
large r e t u r n flow to the banks of Federal reserve notes and other currency concurrently with considerable liquidation of outstanding loans and disccunts,
Currency thus received apparently was used by the member banks to reduce their
own indebtedness at the reserve banks.
All classes of loans show s u b s t a n t i a l reductions f o r the week; loans
secured by Government obligations - by $2},000,000, loans secured by corporate
obligations - by $32,000,000, and a l l other loans and discounts, comprising
largely commercial and i n d u s t r i a l loans,- by 4;45,000>000, Corresponding changes
f o r member banks in New York City include reductions of $12,000,000 in loans
secured by Government obligations, of $31,000,000 in loans secured by corporate
obligations, and of about $1,000,000 in commercial loans proper.
Investments of the reporting banks in United States bonds, largely Liberty
bonds, show an increase of $11,000,000 for the week and of $90,000,000 since
January 14 of l a s t year. Holdings of Victory notes increased during the week
by about $8,000,000 and those of Treasury notes sfcow a decrease of $1,000,000.
Member banks in New York City report nearly the same changes during the week
in t h e i r holdings of these three classes of Government securites. Holdings by
the reporting i n s t i t u t i o n s of Treasury c e r t i f i c a t e s show a reduction of
&7,000,000, while like holdings of member banks in New York City show an increase of $7,000,000 f o r the week. Investments of the reporting i n s t i t u t i o n s
in corporate and other s e c u r i t i e s show p r a c t i c a l l y no change, while the member
banks in New York City report a reduction f o r the week of $3,000,000 under t h i s
head. Total loans and investments, in consequence of the changes noted,are
shown $90,000,000 less than the week before, the corresponding reduction for
member banks in New York City being $23,000,000,
Accommodation of the reporting member banks at Federal reserve banks,in
connection with the substantial return flow of currency during the week, shows
a reduction from $647,000,000 to *531,000,000, or from 4.4 to 3.6 per cent cf
the canks t o t a l loans and investments. For member banks in New York City a
ecreate from $125,000,000 to $97,000,000 in t o t a l borrowings from the local
reserve bank and from 2,6 to 2 per cent in the r a t i o of accommodation is noted,
doe
