NEED NOT CARRY
A RESERVE FUND
SECRETARY. SHAW ISSUES I'M
PORTANT STATEMENT.
$50, 100000 Is AVAILABLE
Treasurer Can See no Reason Why
Banks Holding Government Depos-
it's Must Carry Against 1t Reserve
Fund Besides Government Bonds
Changes Security for ConsoIs.

New York, Sept. 30.-Secretary
Shaw last night issued statement in
which he says banks will hereafter
not be required to carry a reserve
against the government deposits Sc
cured by government bonds. This will
make available this evening $3O,000,-
600.
Shaw said he had never seen any
good reason why banks holding gov
eminent deposits secured by govern
ment bonds should be required to
carry a reserve against it. First, it is
a deposit not likely to be called on in
time Of stringency and, second, if
called, the collateral will always sell
for cash and in excess of the deposit.
He has, since he took control of the
treasury, contemplated the relieving
Of the banks of this burden. The
comptroller of the currency agrees
with the secretary and therefore the
announcement was made as above.
The secretary said he would continue
to make deposit of internal revenue
and miscellaneous receipts OF prac-
tically half a million per~day, as long
as the situation required, and if the
banks were unable to obtain govern
ment bonds to secure the same he
would accept the same general class
of securities, municipal bonds, ETC., as
made available by the laws of the
states for savings banks.
He also proposes the substitution of
other security for consols now held
by the government on condition that
the same shall be used as a basis for
increased circulation, which if &C
copied by the banks, will Immediately
increase the volume 20 or 25 millions
and will add thereto if needed.
