November 4, 1953
CONDITION OF WEEKLY REPORTING MEMBER BANKS IN LEADING CITIES

The condition statement of weekly reporting member banks in leading cities
shows the following principal changes for the week ended October 28: Increases
of $365 million in loans, $207 million in holdings of United States Government
securities, and $724 million in demand deposits adjusted, and decreases of $203 million in United States Government deposits and $215 million in demand deposits
credited to domestic banks.

New York City, $29 million in the San Francisco District, $25 million each in
Chicago and in the St. Louis District, $21 million in the Dallas District, and

Holdings of Treasury bills increased $166 million at all reporting member
banks. Holdings of Treasury certificates of indebtedness and of Treasury notes
increased $25 million and $29 million, respectively. Holdings of "other" securities
