A.
f&BE credit. Total loans and Investments at all commercial banks
lncreaaa£j9700 million in June, a slightly larger rise than in June of most
othegtWcent years of high level economic activity. Loan growth was
mqgejwte, but holdings of U. S. Government securities declined less than
in most other recent years. Holdings of other securities rose slightly,
after declining in most earlier months of the year.

So far this year, total credit at all commercial banks has declined
$2.8 billion, considerably more than usual. During the first quarter total
loans and investments dropped half again as much as in the comparable period
of any previous year, but in the second quarter, credit growth exceeded that
of any other year of high level economic activity. Over the January-June
period, loan expansion of $2.7 billion was less than in other recent years*
Loans declined in the first quarter but growth In the second quarter equaled
or exceeded that of all other years except the unusually sharp rise of 1959.
Holdings of XJ. S. Government securities declined $4.8 billion, somewhat less
than usual for the period, with most of the decline occurring in the first
quarter. Other securities also declined in the first half, whereas generally
they have increased.
The January-June credit reduction at reporting city banks was large,
although expansion in loans and the reduction in holdings of U. S. Government
securities were much smaller than usual. At banks outside leading cities,
total credit declined whereas it usually increases. Loan growth was larger
than in most other recent years but the reduction in holdings of U. S. Government securities was greater.
Business loans (excluding loans to finance companies and other
financial businesses) increased $700 million in June, less than in June of
any other recent year of sustained business activity. Tax borrowing was
smaller than in other recent years and reflected both smaller corporate tax
payments owed and a larger proportion of these payments covered by maturing
tax anticipation securities. Loans to metals processors and to public
utilities showed the largest increases among the industrial categories in
June, but expansion was less than in other years. Loans to trade concerns
increased only slightly further following substantial growth earlier in the
year.
So far this year business loans have increased almost $2 billion,
about the same as in the conparable period last year but much less than the
sharp 1956 rise. Loans to metals fabricators increased more than in the
comparable period of any other recent year except 1956, reflecting the
rebuilding of inventories following the steel strike. Loans to textile
manufacturers and trade concerns rose in record volume. Loans to food
processors declined about the usual amount while those to commodity dealers,
which had risen much more than usual in the last half of 1959, declined more
than usual In the first half of this year. Loans to petroleum producers and

public utilities declined but less than in the comparable period of 1959;
in 1955 and 1956 they had increased substantially.
Loans to ncmbank financial institutions at all commercial banks
increased about # 0 0 million In June, associated largely with tax related
borrowing by sales finance conpaniee. So far this year, these inana have
shown little change, compared with relatively substantial growth in 1959
and 1955.
Loans for purchasing and carrying securities increased about $100
million over June. A sharp rise in loans to brokers and dealers for
purchasing and carrying U . S . Government securities in mid-June probably
associated In part with sales by colorations to obtain funds for tax payments was largely offset by reductions at other times. Security loans have
declined over $1 billion so far this year, considerably more than usual.
Consumer loans at all commercial banks are estimated to have
increased $300 million further in June bringing the increase since December
to $1 billion, somewhat less than the record 1959 growth but about in line
with 1955 and 1956. Real estate loans declined slightly further at city
banks In June but probably continued to increase moderately at other banks.
The $^00 million expansion at all commercial banks in the January-June period
was much less than usual.
Deposit ratios. The ratio of total loans to total deposits at all
commercial banks rose slightly further in June to 57.1 per cent. Batios
increased to new postwar peaks at reserve city and country banks but declined
at central reserve city banks in New York and Chicago. The ratio of U. S.
Government securities maturing within one year to total deposits at all
commercial banks dropped further in May (latest data available) to k.k
per cent, but is still slightly above early 1956 levels.
Deposits and currency. Seasonally adjusted demand deposit and
currency holdings of businesses and individuals increased $600 million in
June. The growth reflected in part slightly larger-than-usual expansion
in commercial bank credit and heavier Federal Be serve purchases of U. S.
Government securities than have occurred In other recent years. At the
end of June the money supply was about $2.7 billion or almost 2 per cent
below last year's level.
The June increase followed a seasonally adjusted decline in the
money supply of $1.8 billion in May associated with an unusually sharp
build-up in U. S. Government deposits which rose $2.4 billion. U. S.
Government deposits Increased slightly further in June, whereAs they
usually, decline in this month. At the month-end, TJ. S. Government deposits
were $2.6 billion above last year's June level.
Seasonally adjusted semi-monthly averages of daily demand deposits
adjusted at member banks are estimated to have declined |£00 million between
the second half of May and the second half of Jane. In the comparable period
a month earlier these deposits had declined $1.3 billion. So far this year,
Not for publication



the reduction has totaled $2.1 billion, slightly more than the drop in
these deposits at all commercial banks shown in the last-Wednesday series.
Time deposits at all commercial banks increased about $1 billion
further in June bringing the first half year growth to $1.6 billion.
Following a sharp decline in January, these deposits have been increasing
more than in other recent years. On the other hand, deposit growth at
mutual savings banks, which totaled $400 million in the January-June
period has been considerably less than usual.
Deposit turnover. The seasonally adjusted annual rate of demand
deposit turnover at banks outside New York and other financial centers
declined to 26.2 times in June from 26.3 in May. The June level was about
6-1/2 per cent above that of June a year ago.
Liquid assets held by the public. Public holdings of major liquid
assets, seasonally adjusted, declined by about $3-l/2 billion in May after
expanding $2 billion over the first four months of this year. Substantial
declines in May in holdings of U. S. Government securities maturing within
one year and in demand deposits and currency were only partly offset by
further growth in personal type savings, almost entirely in the form of
savings and loan shares.
Member bank reserves. Free reserves of all member banks averaged
$35 million in June compared with net borrowed reserves of $35 million in
May. The reserve position of member banks had shifted to one of free
reserves in late May where it remained through June. Free reserves ranged
from a nominal level to about $80 million between late May and early July.
Borrowings averaged $425 million in June, about $480 million below the late
1959 level while excess reserves averaged $460 million, slightly below the
December level.
During June, on a daily average basis, reserves were supplied
principally by an increase of $305 million In Federal Reserve holdings of
U. S. Government securities; outright purchases were somewhat larger than
this but holdings under repurchase agreements were reduced. Funds also
became available through an increase in Beserve Bank float. Reserves were
absorbed through currency outflow, through gold and foreign operations, and
through changes in other factors. Required reserves increased $55 million.
They increased moderately early in June and sharply around the mid-month
tax date; toward the end of the month they declined somewhat.
Total reservest seasonally adjusted. A table on total member bank
reserves (Table 7)> seasonally adjusted and unadjusted, along with the seasonal
factors, is included for the first time this month. These data, developed
at the Board, are on a monthly basis beginning in 1947; current data will
be shown regularly in this report.
Total reserve balances showed little further change on a seasonally
adjusted basis in June. However, they had increased $170 million in May,
offsetting nearly one-third of the $570 million decline which had occurred
between December and April.

\J Figures are actual for the period beginning with May 1958» when the latest change in reserve requirements
became effective. In order to eliminate the effects of differences in reserve requirements in earlier monthsf
figures for those months were synthesized by taking the sum of actual excess reserves and an artificial figure
for required reserves constructed by applying present reserve requirements against demand and time deposits by
class of bank.
2/ Based on figures for the period January 1947 - December 1959.
