H.lu2 BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM (For Immediate Release) October 12, 1955 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 5: Decreases of SU55 million in demand deposits adjusted and $25U million in United States Government deposits, and an increase of $661* million in demand deposits credited to domestic banks. Figures shown in the attached tables—particularly those for commercial, industrial, and agricultural loans and real estate loans—have been revised to correct classification errors disclosed in a recent survey of credit extended to real estate mortgage lenders. Reporting banks were asked to reclassify loans as of October 5, furnishing data on both the old and new basis for that date; they were not asked to revise prior figures. The amounts shown for these classifications in the first column below are on the revised basis; the changes since September 28, 1955 and October 6, 19 5U, shown in the second and third columns, are on the old basis before revisions. In future releases, the year-ago comparisons will be between current revised figures and year-ago unrevised figures. The major effects of the revisions are to increase commercial and industrial loans by #280 million and to decrease real estate loans by the same amount. Commercial, industrial, and agricultural loans increased $U9 million during the week before the reclassification. Changes according to industry appear in another press release, together with the reclassification changes by districts. A summary of assets and liabilities of reporting member banks follows: Increase or decrease since 5, Oct. 6, Sept. 28, 1955** , 19% ,199? Oct.
