Recent Developments In Consumer Instalment Credit IN THE EARLY MONTHS of 1971, short- and intermediate-term consumer credit outstanding—used to finance consumers’ ex­ penditures for goods and services— resumed the growth that had been interrupted late last year. Most of the increase has come from the instalment credit component; growth in noninstalment credit, which accounts for only a small part of the total out­ standing, was small. After beginning to rise again in December 1970, the net change in instalment credit outstanding grew more rapidly each month through April, and then after 2 months of slower growth, climbed sharply in July at the highest annual rate in 2 years. This pattern of growth resulted from a sharp rise in gross extensions in the early months of the year as automobile credit rebounded after the auto strike, in combination with an erratic drop in repayments in July. Extensions of instalment credit reached a new high in April, at a level well above those prevailing before the auto strike. From then through July, the latest month for which data are available, there was no further growth. Since April, consumer instalment credit has been extended at an annual rate of more than $116 billion; for most of the 2 years prior to the auto strike such extensions had averaged about $103 billion. Repayments of instalment debt, which— because of the com­ plex nature of their lagged relationship with extensions— usually exhibit a smoother trend than extensions, continued to increase Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

The growth in repayments through June was at about the same rate as the trend in disposable income. Delinquencies on instalment debts are generally declining this year, after having shown a modest in­ crease during 1970. BORROWING PATTERNS Much of the movement in consumer instalment credit extensions IN RECENT YEARS has originated in changes in demand for credit to finance auto purchases. Extensions of auto credit reached an annual rate of nearly $35 billion in March of this year, but did not grow further from then through July. The second-quarter rate of auto exten­ sions was 27 per cent higher than the strike-depressed rate in the fourth quarter of 1970 and exceeded previous peaks. Extensions of auto credit reached high levels in the summer of 1968, but have been generally weak during much of the period since then. Late in the summer of 1968 buying of the large inventory of current-model cars was stimulated by early an­ nouncements of higher prices for 1969 models. Even though a 10 per cent surcharge on individual income taxes had been im­ posed in mid-1968, consumers continued to spend heavily for Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Latest data, Q2. autos, and credit extensions to finance those purchases reached then-record rates. new-car sales Much of the weakness in auto credit in 1969 and 1970 was associated with declines in the number of autos sold during those DOMESTIC-TYPE years. Sales of new domestic-type cars dropped irregularly from an annual rate of 8.6 million units in February 1969 to fewer than 5.2 million in the strike-affected closing months of 1970. The number of used cars sold also declined, but sales of imported units expanded. The drop in expenditures for cars was not quite so sharp as that in unit sales, since higher prices for specific IMPORTS models more than offset a shift of sales toward the lower-priced, small domestic cars and imports. With reductions in the propor- Quarteriy averages of monthly tion of cars sold on credit and in the proportion of the purchase .a' seasonally ad,us,ed annual price financed, extensions of auto credit declined somewhat more rates than total auto sales.

706 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN □ SEPTEMBER 1971 also rose rapidly during early 1971 to a new high annual rate of more than $41 billion in May, then decreased somewhat. During most of 1969 and 1970 such extensions had remained at an annual rate of about $35 billion. Extensions of credit for the purchase of consumer goods other than autos have behaved quite differently from those for autos and personal loans, continuing to increase rapidly in recent years with only brief interruptions. Such extensions rose from a total of $33.1 billion in 1969 to $36.8 billion in 1970, an 11 per cent increase, and by mid-1971 they had reached an annual rate of $41 billion. Within this nonautomotive category, credit cards and mobile homes have accounted for an increasing proportion of all credit extensions in recent years. This category also includes credit extended to purchase such consumer goods as apparel, home appliances, furniture, and boats. During the past 4 years the use of bank credit cards has been growing rapidly. This has reflected in large measure the adoption of card plans by banks in additional areas, a process that is now slowing down. At the end of 1967, 390 banks reported holding credit-card outstandings, with some $800 million under such plans. By December 31, 1969, the number of banks had grown to 1,207, and volume outstanding had also more than tripled. With most of the major banks already operating card plans, the number of banks starting new plans increased much less rapidly during 1970, but the dollar amounts continued to rise at only a somewhat reduced rate. According to call report data, credit outstanding on these plans at the end of 1970 amounted to $3.8 billion. Sample data indicate a continuing, though less rapid, increase so far this year. Mobile home credit has also increased greatly as purchases of these homes have advanced for several reasons— especially lower initial prices than for conventional houses and land, and earlier the limited availability of mortgage credit. Mobile homes are financed largely by intermediate-term instalment credit, typically on the basis of a 7-year maturity. A mid-1970 survey indicated that commercial banks held $2.8 billion of mobile home paper, 40 per cent of their nonautomotive consumer goods loans. Finance companies are also active in mobile home lending, and savings and loan associations are moving into it. Manufac­ turers’ shipments of mobile units increased rapidly through 1969, when they leveled at about 400,000 units. This year, however, Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

CONSUMER INSTALMENT CREDIT 707 shipments have been rising again, even though housing starts have reached record rates. The rise in extensions of credit for purchases of mobile homes has also reflected higher prices, at­ tributable in part to larger and more elaborate units. Extensions of credit for home repair and modernization, which represent only a very small part of the total volume of instalment credit, have also increased considerably over the 1970 level. Despite the incentive for modernization created by periods of reduced residential construction, repair and modernization loans have not shown any large increases. Typically these loans run for a longer term than most other types of instalment credit, and the average loan may be larger. The combination of longer maturities and the restricted interest charges on FHA Title 1 loans is reported to have made this a relatively unattractive form of credit to many lenders. The relative rates of growth of the various components of instalment credit in 1971 have raised slightly— to approximately 36 per cent— the share that automobile credit outstanding now represents of all consumer instalment debt. Although auto credit is still the largest single component, its relative importance has been declining since the mid-1950’s, and in general it has de­ clined at an increasing rate in recent years. Five years ago auto­ mobile credit represented nearly 41 per cent of total outstandings, while in the mid-1950’s it was more than 47 per cent. The corresponding increase has occurred mainly in personal loans. They expanded from 21 per cent of total outstandings in 1956 to 32 per cent in mid-1971. A small increase has taken place in the share of nonautomotive consumer goods, mainly in the last 5 years. Bank credit-card outstandings, which are in­ cluded in the nonautomotive goods category, still account for only 3 per cent of total instalment credit outstanding. Meanwhile, the share of repair and modernization loans outstanding has been declining slowly. Such loans now represent only about 4 per cent of the total. MAJOR LENDER The major lender groups have experienced diverse trends this GROUPS year in their shares of total consumer credit extensions. Credit union extensions have continued to grow rapidly, accounting for nearly a 14 per cent share of the total in the second quarter of 1971. Extensions by retailers dropped to less than a 20 per cent share. The commercial bank share of total extensions stayed about level at 38 per cent. The remaining lenders, mainly fi- Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

708 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN □ SEPTEMBER 1971 nance companies, also showed little over-all change this year, rising in the first quarter but dropping back to about 28 per cent in the second. Finance companies’ share of total consumer credit extensions has been falling for a number of years, stemming from their declining share of automobile financing, with commercial banks and credit unions gaining. This process accelerated in mid- 1969, when several large independent finance companies reduced purchases of auto paper to a small fraction of former levels. This abrupt contraction was brought about by the high price and restricted availability of funds in the commercial paper market in mid-1969, while finance charges on auto contracts had in­ creased much less. These finance companies found other lending activities to be more profitable— they increased their business lending, and in the consumer area they bought larger amounts of mobile home paper and increased their personal loans.

Latest data, Q2. Consumer credit receivables have been shrinking as a per­ centage of total receivables at all finance companies, especially since the mid-1969 cutback in auto lending activity.

At banks, consumer loans represent only a little more than 13 per cent of the total. CHANGES IN Terms on instalment credit have shown relatively little sensitivity LENDING TERMS to changes in monetary and economic conditions during the last few years, according to the limited information available. Interest rates. While most interest rates have undergone sub­ stantial changes in the last few years, rates on consumer instal­ ment loans, as shown in very limited sample data collected by the Federal Reserve on an experimental basis from commercial banks, moved up relatively little in 1969 and have since leveled off. Whereas the bank prime rate moved up 3 percentage points between mid-1967 and mid-1969, the composite of instalment rates at the sample banks rose less than 1 point. In some in­ stances ceilings imposed by States were a factor in preventing a further rise in instalment loan rates during periods when credit was generally tight. Through June of this year, the latest month for which these data have been collected, only negligible reductions had taken place. More recently, however, a few commercial banks have announced that they were reducing interest rates on consumer loans. In late August, across-the-board reductions amounting to about 1 percentage point were posted by a major New York bank, and other reductions— somewhat larger in some instances— were made by another bank in the same area. - ■ . n i1--* .1 .■ INTEREST RATES on consumer loans change little. . .prime rate shows marked shifts Consumer rate is a composite measure of instalment loan rates from a sample of banks in selected metropolitan areas.

710 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN □ SEPTEMBER 1971 The sharp narrowing of the spread between consumer and other loan rates that occurred in 1969 did not seem to reduce severely the volume of funds made available for consumer loans despite the cutback of some finance companies in the auto credit market. Downpayments. Low-downpayment new-car loans became a bit less frequent at finance companies in the second quarter of 1971; at banks the frequency of such loans remained unchanged. However, both banks and finance companies now report a smaller proportion of loans that exceed the dealer’s cost of the car than has been the case in most recent years. 5 | NEW-CAR CONTRACTS at finance companies and banks: Proportion with LOW DOWNPAYMENTS Most contracts have 3-year MATURITIES remains at low level PER CENT PER CENT Low-downpayment loans are those with dealer-cost ratios above 100 per cent. Quarterly averages of seasonally adjusted monthly data. Latest data, Q2. t Maturity. While low downpayments have become somewhat less frequent in recent years, the proportion of new-car loans being written for the normal 3-year maximum maturity has risen. After wide fluctuations at the time of and immediately following last year’s auto strike, the proportion of 31- to 36-month loans (almost all of which are for the full 36 months) increased steeply during recent months until it slightly exceeded the pre­ strike level. In addition, the first major lengthening of usual maximum contract maturities beyond 36 months may now be taking place. In a few areas banks are now granting 42- or 48-month contracts, and in one West Coast area a major finance company is testing a 42-month contract in response to moves by banks. In the mid-1950’s, after the usual maximum maturity for newcar loans was extended from 24 to 36 months, the proportion of loans written for the 36-month period began a gradual rise. This maturity stretch-out has slowed in the last few years, and as of mid-1971 roughly 80 per cent of all new-car contracts at com­ mercial banks were being written for 36 months; at finance com­ panies the proportion of such contracts was about 84 per cent.

CONSUMER INSTALMENT CREDIT 711 LOAN REPAYMENT Delinquency rates on instalment loans at commercial banks PERFORMANCE started to turn down at the end of last year after the relatively small rise that had developed during the slowdown in economic activity in late 1969 and most of 1970. The proportion of loans reported delinquent 30 to 89 days was a modest 1.5 per cent in June 1971, and even at the 1970 peak it remained under 1.7 per cent. In recent years the delinquency rate at banks has aver­ aged between 1.3 and 1.5 per cent. Most lender groups are be­ lieved to have experienced a similar pattern. Delinquencies at credit unions, however, were below usual levels in July, as they have been most of this year. Unlike the situation at banks, credit union delinquencies during 1970 did not exceed those of most previous years.

Number of loans delinquent 30-89 days as per cent of number outstanding; bimonthly. Latest data, June. One area in which high delinquency rates are being experi­ enced is bank credit-card operations. Many banks are also reported to be experiencing high charge-off rates on card credit, sometimes due to fraud losses. These problems appear to have resulted not from the economic slowdown of 1969-70, but from the large-scale entry into a new type of credit— still a new activity for most banks, and a new source of funds for many cardholders. Personal bankruptcies, which have shown a steady rise during most of the period since World War II, have recently been follow­ ing a zigzag pattern. After rising almost 12 per cent a year be­ tween 1955 and 1967, filings for personal bankruptcies dropped more than 9 per cent in the calendar year 1968 and decreased slightly further in 1969. Filings rose rapidly again last year, but Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

they are dropping back in 1971. Consumer Credit Protection Act provisions that became effective in July 1970 limiting the proportion of wages and salaries subject to garnishment, and limiting employers’ freedom to discharge workers because of garnishment, may be contributing to a lessening in the number of bankruptcies. The proportion of total disposable income devoted to repay­ ment of instalment debt has changed only minimally in 1971. While repayments have continued to rise, income has increased equally fast. In the second quarter of 1971 repayments of this type of credit took 14.8 per cent of disposable income, no more than in 1965. This stability is in marked contrast with earlier years; until 1965 the repayment-to-income ratio had risen rapidly from less than 4 per cent at the end of World War II. □ 712 Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

The record for each meeting includes the votes on the policy deci­ sions made at the meeting as well as a resume of the basis for the decisions. The summary descriptions of economic and financial condi­ tions are based on the information that was available to the Committee at the time of the meeting, rather than on data as they may have been revised since then. Policy directives of the Federal Open Market Committee are issued to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York— the Bank selected by the Committee to execute transactions for the System Open Market Account. Records of policy actions have been published regularly in the Bulletin beginning with the July 1967 issue, and such records have continued to be published in the Board’s Annual Reports. The records for the meetings held in 1971 through May 11 were published in the Bulletins for April, pages 320-27; May, pages 391-98; June, pages 503-11; July, pages 599-606; and August, pages 663-71.

716 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN □ SEPTEMBER 1971 MEETING HELD ON JUNE 8, 1971 1. Authority to effect transactions in System Account. According to revised official estimates, real output of goods and services had increased at an annual rate of 7.1 per cent in the first quarter, somewhat more than preliminary estimates had indicated. The size of the advance was primarily a consequence of the post­ strike recovery of production in the automobile industry, and real GNP appeared to be rising at a slower pace in the second quarter. In May expansion in the labor force exceeded growth in employ­ ment, and the unemployment rate edged up further to 6.2 from 6.1 per cent in April. Industrial production, which had increased only a little in March and April, was tentatively estimated to have advanced at a somewhat faster pace in May. According to weekly figures retail sales were about unchanged in May. In April private housing starts remained close to the very high level they had reached in March. Wholesale prices of industrial commodities, which had risen at a moderate pace in the first quarter and then advanced sharply in April, increased considerably further in May. However, average prices of farm products and foods declined in May, and the over-all wholesale price index rose at a slower pace than in the first 4 months of the year. In April, as in the first quarter, the rate of advance in the consumer price index was less than earlier largely because of a decline in mortgage interest costs. Wage rates recently had continued to increase at a rapid pace. Despite the upward revision in the official estimates of GNP for the first quarter, staff projections continued to suggest that activity would expand at a relatively moderate rate over the rest of 1971. Prospects still favored further large increases in outlays by State and local governments and in expenditures on residential construction. As before, the advance in housing activity was expected to slow as the year progressed; but the projected rates of growth had been increased significantly in light of the recent strength of housing starts, the large volume of outstanding mortgage commitments, and the continued heavy flows of savings funds to nonbank thrift institutions. On the other hand, it now appeared from various kinds of evidence Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

RECORD OF POLICY ACTIONS OF FOMC 717 that business fixed investment outlays would expand little over the second half of the year. The latest Commerce-SEC survey, taken in May, revealed that since February businesses had revised downward their planned spending on new plant and equipment in 1971; and a recent survey by the National Industrial Conference Board indicated that in the first quarter manufacturers had reduced their appropriations for new plant and equipment— the sixth such reduction in the last seven quarters. The rate of increase in consumer spending was still expected to moderate considerably in the second quarter— mainly because out­ lays on new cars were no longer rising sharply in the aftermath of the auto strike— and then to step up somewhat in the second half of the year. It was anticipated that growth in consumer spending during the second half would be sustained in part by the recently enacted increase in social security benefits, including retroactive payments scheduled for late June; by a possible military pay raise around midyear; and by some decline in the personal saving rate. The possibility of a steel strike at the end of July lent an element of uncertainty to the outlook for the rest of 1971. It appeared, however, that if the duration of any such strike were limited to 2 months or less, the effect on the average rate of growth in real GNP in the third and fourth quarters taken together would not be great. Following the small surplus of the first quarter, U.S. merchandise trade moved into deficit in April as a result of a large increase in imports and an even larger decline in exports. The deficit in the over-all balance of payments, which had been extremely heavy earlier in the year, reached enormous proportions in late April and early May as a consequence of capital outflows in response to ex­ pectations of upward revaluations in the exchange rates of the German mark and some other European currencies. Since May 9— when it was announced that the mark and the Dutch guilder would be allowed to float for the time being and that the Swiss franc and Austrian schilling were being revalued— there had been some capital flows into Japanese yen and probably also into Euro-dollars. Although the differentials between short-term interest rates in the United States and in major foreign countries had narrowed on balance in April and May, the spread between rates in the United States and those in the Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

718 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN □ SEPTEMBER 1971 Euro-dollar market had been widened by sharp increases in the latter in early May. In recent weeks the mark had fluctuated in a range up to 4.6 per cent above its par value, and the guilder also had traded beyond its normal margin above par. In the week before this meeting the German Federal Bank had reentered the exchange market, buying marks for dollars at rates above the previous ceiling. Interest rates on most types of domestic market securities, which had been under upward pressure since mid-March, rose sharply fur­ ther during much of May. In the third week of the month— against the background of uncertainties in foreign exchange markets, ex­ pectations of increased monetary restraint, and continuing heavy demands on capital markets— yields on Treasury and corporate bonds reached new peaks for the year and municipal bond yields held at the highs they had attained in the previous week. Subsequently, however, a rally developed in bond markets and long-term bond yields declined to or below the levels prevailing at the time of the May 11 Committee meeting. In contrast, short-term interest rates had advanced further on balance in recent weeks. For example, the market rate on 3-month Treasury bills, at about 4.45 per cent on the day before this meeting, was 60 basis points above the level of 4 weeks earlier. Interest rates on conventional new-home mortgages declined much less in April than in earlier months of the year, and there were scattered reports of advances during May. Secondary-market yields on federally insured mortgages turned up in late April and rose to a high for the year in early June. Inflows of savings funds at nonbank thrift institutions slowed in May from the exceptionally high rates that had prevailed earlier in the year, but they still were large. Inflows of consumer-type time and savings deposits at commer­ cial banks continued in May at about the same rate as in April, which was quite high by historical standards but well below the firstquarter pace. The volume of large-denomination CD’s outstanding rose in May by about as much as it had declined in April, reflecting to a large extent an increase in holdings of foreign official institutions. Banks lifted their offering rates on such CD’s during the month, and holdings of domestic depositors also increased. Business loans out­ standing (including loans that had been sold to affiliates) expanded sharply after having changed little in April. While banks continued Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

RECORD OF POLICY ACTIONS OF FOMC 719 to add to their investments in securities other than U.S. Government issues, the rate of growth in such holdings slowed further. Total bank credit, as measured by the adjusted proxy series— daily-average member bank deposits, adjusted to include funds from nondeposit sources— increased moderately from April to May, accord­ ing to preliminary estimates. However, sharp increases were recorded for both the narrow and broader measures of the money stock— Mr (private demand deposits plus currency in circulation) and M-> (M1 plus commercial bank time deposits other than large-denomination CD’s). For all three aggregates, the advance in May was substantially greater than had been expected at the time of the previous meeting of the Committee. System open market operations had been directed at maintaining prevailing money market conditions in the period immediately follow­ ing the May 11 meeting, in light of the Treasury financing then in process and the sensitive state of conditions in capital markets. Sub­ sequently, as the atmosphere in capital markets improved and incom­ ing data indicated that the monetary aggregates were expanding sig­ nificantly faster than had been expected, operations were directed at achieving a gradual firming of money market conditions. The Federal funds rate, which had fluctuated around A-V2 per cent early in the period, later moved into a range around 4-3A per cent. In the 4 weeks ending June 2 member bank borrowings averaged about $330 million, compared with about $150 million in the preceding 4 weeks. Staff analysis suggested that, if prevailing money market conditions were maintained, would rise rapidly in June although not so rapidly as in May; and that it would expand at an annual rate of about 12 per cent over the second quarter as a whole, following the 9 per cent increase of the first quarter.1 Growth in M., and the bank credit proxy, which had been at annual rates of 18 and 11 per cent, respectively, in the first quarter, was expected to be somewhat more moderate in the second. As to the third quarter, tentative projections suggested that under prevailing money market conditions M1 would continue to grow rapidly over the quarter as a whole— at a rate of 1 Calculated on the basis of the daily-average level in the last month of the quarter relative to that in the last month of the preceding quarter.

720 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN □ SEPTEMBER 1971 perhaps 10 or 11 per cent— but that the pace of the expansion would slow as the quarter progressed. The staff analysis also suggested that, if somewhat firmer money market conditions were attained during coming weeks, the effect on the growth rates of the aggregates in June and over the second quar­ ter as a whole would be slight. It appeared, however, that the rates of increase in the third quarter might be reduced by about 1 per­ centage point. In the Committee’s discussion considerable concern was expressed about the rapid growth of the monetary aggregates, and the members agreed that it would be desirable to seek somewhat slower growth over coming months than appeared likely to eventuate if prevailing money market conditions were maintained. At the same time, a number of members stressed the importance of moving gradually and cautiously in attaining somewhat firmer money market conditions, in order to minimize any resulting upward pressures on long-term interest rates. The Committee agreed that account should be taken of developments in capital markets in the conduct of open market operations. The following current economic policy directive was issued to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York: The information reviewed at this meeting suggests that real output of goods and services is expanding moderately in the current quarter, following the first-quarter surge that primarily reflected the resump­ tion of higher automobile production. The unemployment rate re­ mained high in May. Wage rates in most sectors are continuing to rise at a rapid pace. In the first four months of 1971 the consumer price index increased at a slower pace than earlier, in considerable part because of a decline in mortgage interest rates; the rate of advance in wholesale prices of industrial commodities, which had moderated in the first quarter, stepped up again in April and May. The money stock both narrowly and broadly defined expanded even more rapidly in May than in April but growth in the bank credit proxy remained moderate. Interest rates on most types of market securities rose sharply further during much of May, reflecting con­ tinuing uncertainties about domestic and international financial prospects; more recently rates on long-term securities have declined on balance, but mortgage rates have risen.

RECORD OF POLICY ACTIONS OF FOMC 721 worsened in April. The deficit in the over-all balance of payments has diminished since early May, when capital outflows were swollen by expectations of changes in foreign exchange rates, but it remains large. Differentials between short-term interest rates in the United States and in major foreign countries narrowed on balance in April and May, but differentials between rates in the United States and in the Euro-dollar market recently have widened as rates in that market moved up sharply in early May. In light of the foregoing develop­ ments, it is the policy of the Federal Open Market Committee to foster financial conditions conducive to the resumption of sustain­ able economic growth, while encouraging an orderly reduction in the rate of inflation, moderation of short-term capital outflows, and attainment of reasonable equilibrium in the country’s balance of pay­ ments. To implement this policy, the Committee seeks to moderate growth in monetary aggregates over the months ahead, taking ac­ count of developments in capital markets. System open market operations until the next meeting of the Committee shall be con­ ducted with a view to achieving bank reserve and money market conditions consistent with those objectives.

Absent and not voting: Mr. Hayes. (Mr. Treiber voted as his alternate.) 2. Amendment to continuing authority directive. The Committee amended paragraph 2 of its continuing authority directive to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York with respect to domestic open market operations, to increase the dollar limit on Federal Reserve Bank holdings of short-term certificates of indebted­ ness purchased directly from the Treasury from $1 billion to $2 billion. With this change, paragraph 2 read as follows: The Federal Open Market Committee authorizes and directs the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or, if the New York Reserve Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Bank is closed, any other Federal Reserve Bank, to purchase directly from the Treasury for its own account (with discretion, in cases where it seems desirable, to issue participations to one or more Federal Reserve Banks) such amounts of special short-term cer­ tificates of indebtedness as may be necessary from time to time for the temporary accommodation of the Treasury; provided that the rate charged on such certificates shall be a rate Va of 1 per cent below the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York at the time of such purchases, and provided further that the total amount of such certificates held at any one time by the Federal Reserve Banks shall not exceed $2 billion. Votes for this action: Messrs. Burns, Brimmer, Clay, Daane, Kimbrel, Maisel, Mayo, Mitchell, Morris, Robertson, Sherrill, and Treiber. Votes against this action: None. Absent and not voting: Mr. Hayes. (Mr. Treiber voted as his alternate.) This action was taken on recommendation of the System Account Manager, who advised that an expected sharp decline in the Treas­ ury’s cash balances in the period before the mid-June tax-payment date probably would necessitate temporary borrowing from the Sys­ tem, and that the Treasury’s needs might well exceed the existing $1 billion limit on such borrowing. It was anticipated that the $1 billion limit would be restored at the next meeting of the Committee. 722 Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
