NEW YORK Aug. 27.-The Finaucier says:
The statement of the New York associated

off of reserve to meet seasonable requiremtnts,
which began last week. is fairly under way.
According to the actual statement the loss in
cash 50 2415 800. which closely approximated
previous statements of the current movement.
Reserve requirements, however, were decreased
by loss of So. 259. 700 in deposits the surplus

statement showed smaller loss in cash, but
this was probably due to the fact that most of
the shipments took place at the end of the week.
Loans expanded over $40, ,0o0, ,000 according TO the
statement of averages. while the actual state
ment showed a slight increase.
