STATEMENT FOE THE PRESS

St.2785.
Federal Reserve Board,
May IS, 1922.

CONDITION OF MEMBER BANKS IN LEADING CITIES.
Further increases of $26,000,000 in holdings of corporate securities and of
$20,000,000 in loans based on such securities besides an increase of $33,000,000
in the total investments in Government securities, as against a total reduction
of $12,000,000 in loans secured by Government obligations and in ordinary commercial loans, are indicated in the Federal Reserve Board's weekly statement of
condition on May 10 of 799 member banks in leading cities. For member banks in
New York City the statement shows but a nominal addition to Corporate security
holdings, an increase of $25,000,000 in loans supported by such Securities and
an increase of $16,000,000 in U. S. securities, as against reductions of $7,000,000
aach in loans secured by Government obligations and in other^ i.e., commercial,
loans. Total loans and investments of the reporting institutions show an increase for the week of $67,000,000, of which $28,000,000 represents the increase
in New York City.
Government deposits declined by about $9,000,000, while other demand deposits
(net) increased by $61,000,000 and time deposits (largely in New York City) - by
$45,000,000. Total borrowings from Federal reserve banks declined from
$180,000,000 to $150,000,000, or from 1,2 to 1.0 per cent of the reporting banks'
aggregate loans and investments. For member banks in New York City a more than
corresponding decrease from $28,000,000 to $9,000,000 in borrowings from the
local reserve bank and from 0.6 to 0.2 per cent in the ratio of these borrowings
to total loans and investments is noted.
Reserve balances, in keeping with the substantial increases in demand and
time deposits* show an increase of $37,000,000, largely in New York City. Cash in
vault went up $3,000,000, of which $1,000,000 represents the increase at the New
York banks.
