Prefatory Note

The attached document represents the most complete and accurate version available based on original copies culled from the files of the FOMC Secretariat at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. This electronic document was created through a comprehensive digitization process which included identifying the bestpreserved paper copies, scanning those copies, 1 and then making the scanned versions text-searchable. 2 Though a stringent quality assurance process was employed, some imperfections may remain. Please note that some material may have been redacted from this document if that material was received on a confidential basis. Redacted material is indicated by occasional gaps in the text or by gray boxes around non-text content. All redacted passages are exempt from disclosure under applicable provisions of the Freedom of Information Act.

1

In some cases, original copies needed to be photocopied before being scanned into electronic format. All scanned images were deskewed (to remove the effects of printer- and scanner-introduced tilting) and lightly cleaned (to remove dark spots caused by staple holes, hole punches, and other blemishes caused after initial printing).

2

A two-step process was used. An advanced optical character recognition computer program (OCR) first created electronic text from the document image. Where the OCR results were inconclusive, staff checked and corrected the text as necessary. Please note that the numbers and text in charts and tables were not reliably recognized by the OCR process and were not checked or corrected by staff.

SUPPLEMENTAL NOTES

The Domestic Economy

Industrial production.

The Board's index of industrial

production rose 0.5 percent further to 114.3 (1967=100) in August, a level 8.2 percent above a year earlier.

The July index has been

revised up slightly to 113.7 and the June index up to 113.4.

The August

increase reflected widespread gains in output among final products and materials, with business equipment, defense equipment and steel especially strong.

(Very confidential until release September 18

afternoon.) Sales of new domestic-type autos in the first 10 days of September were at a 6.5 million unit annual rate, down 30 percent from the corresponding periods a month and a year earlier.

The drop

in sales was due in large part to the reduced level of stocks, the lowest since December 1970 after the GM strike, and to the impending sales of 1973 models at 1972 prices--few of which have been pre-sold before their introduction later this month. Personal income in August rose $6.9 billion to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $939.8 billion.

This followed a gain of $10

billion now shown for July--the magnitude of which reflected large capital losses incurred in the floods in the Northeast being charged against proprietors' and rental incomes in June.

Apart from proprietors'

and rental income personal income rose $6.4 billion in August, compared to $3.2 billion in July.

-2Wage and salary disbursements rose by $5 billion, or 9.6 percent annual rate, and accounted for most of the August increase in personal income.

Manufacturing payrolls rose $2 billion, following a

small decline in July.

Increases in employment, hours, and hourly

earnings contributed to the advance, with the latter accounting for more than half the rise.

- 3 The Domestic Financial Situation Capital markets.

Yields on new corporate bond issues

started to rise again this week after several slow-moving recent issues were freed from price restrictions, resulting in upward yield adjustments on these bonds of 6 to 10 basis points.

Dealers are now in a

better technical position, since syndicate inventories are at a low level and secondary positions have been reduced in recent weeks as yields on seasoned issues rose above returns on newly issued securities of comparable rating. Data from the most recent Survey of State and Local Long-term Borrowing Anticipations and Realizations indicate that as of June 30, 1972 such government units planned to issue $6.0 billion of long-term bonds in the third quarter.

On the basis of actual sales for July and

August and scheduled issues in September, it appears that long-term borrowing may be as much as $500 million below anticipations.

However,

the October calendar has built up rapidly during the past week, and some of these issues may have originally been planned for the third quarter.

A-1 SUPPLEMENTAL APPENDIX A QUARTERLY SURVEY OF BANK LENDING PRACTICES * The August 15 Survey of Changes in Bank Lending Practices indicated that most banks expected some increase in loan demands over the next three months, and some banks have already tightened terms and conditions of lending. As in previous surveys, however, banks showed a greater willingness to make term and consumer installment loans -a fact which may be connected with banks' ample holdings of liquid assets. The increased desire to make term loans, furthermore, appears to be part of a continuing bank response to the pressures exerted by customers' use of capital market financing as an alternative to bank borrowing. More than half of the 125 respondents participating in the survey reported continued strengthening in loan demand since the date of the last survey in May. (See Table 1.) Nearly three-fourths of the participants, moreover, anticipated even stronger demand through November, and none expected a decline in lending activity. With the pick-up in business activity, some banks had adopted firmer interest rate policies, based on the one-fourth of a percentage point increase in the prime rate during the interval covered by the current survey. A few of the banks (about 10 per cent) had also tightened balance requirements and standards of credit worthiness. In additionabout 10 per cent of the respondents indicated applications from new customers were reviewed somewhat more critically, while all loan applications were screened more closely with an eye toward the applicants value as a depositor or source of collateral business. Segregation of responses by size of banks reflected stronger loan demands experienced at smaller banks (with less than $1 billion A greater proportion of smaller banks (See Table 2.) in deposits). raised interest rates in lending to businesses and nonbank financial institutions. These banks were more critical of the borrower's potential value as a source of collateral business when reviewing applications for loans; balance requirements for finance companies were more stringent. Smaller banks, though, were more willing to add to their portfolios of consumer loans. Larger banks, however, were more aggressive in expanding brokers' loans. * Prepared by Marilyn Barron, Research Assistant, Banking Section, Division of Research and Statistics.

A-

2

In contrast to some firming of loan policies, a greater willingness to make term loans was noted by nearly 20 per cent of respondents, some with easier terms than three months previously. A similar proportion of the respondents indicated a more favorable posture toward installment loans to consumers. A smaller proportion indicated some increase in their willingness to make single family mortgages. The increased willingness to make term loans on easier terms has been a spreading phenomenon among respondents that has gone on now for at least four quarters, with some banks in August indicating that they were forced by competition to adopt such policies. Even though corporate security offerings in the capital markets have moderated this year, they remain quite large by historical standards. Apparently, banks have become concerned about the competitive inroads made in their markets and have been attempting to recapture customers by offering loans similar to an intermediate-term security (e.g. no amortization of principal and an upper bound on a floating interest rate). It should be noted, however, that term loans at large banks have shown only modest increases recently, and remain below the levels reached in the spring of 1971. This could reflect the fact that fixed rate security issues to nonbank investors appear more attractive at this time to borrowers than a term loan, the rate on which can rise -even if the amount of the permitted increase is limited.
