Treasury Department Or
ders Early Withdrawal
of $3,097, 500.
WILL LEAVE ONLY
WORKING BALANCES
Government Plans to Increase
Leaning Business of Federal
Reserve System.

Washington, July 27.-Foreshadowing
the withdrawal Of all Federal deposits
in national banks, except working ball
ances for the various governmental ac-
counts, the Treasury Department has
ordered the withdrawal from the ma
tional banks of $3,097 800, part Of the
Federal deposits held by these institu-
tions, the withdrawal TO take effect
from August 10 to %.
This withdrawal follows a withdrawal
of S5,000,000 in the last few months,
and is part of the plan of the Treasury
Department 10 encourage the Federal
Reserve system. Obviously the mem
Der banks of the system would. not be
so quick 10 rediscount their commercial
paper with the Reserve banks II they
had large amounts Of Federal deposits
on hand, and so the net result OF the
Withdrawals will be 10 increase the
loaning business OF the various Fed
eral Reserve banks and thus enable
them 10 make a profit which will help
pay their running expenses.
The Withdrawals ordered to-day are
only a fraction OF the amount which
the Federal government has on deposit
in the national banks. as that totalled
at the close of business yesterday Si5,-
79S, 66sO6 to the credit OF the Treasury
of the United tSates and 1886, Bill
to the credit of postmasters, judicial
and other Federal officers.
The drawing Of this money out 81
the national bank depositaries and
placing it IN the Treasury has no bear
ing on the shrinkage in the net balance
on hand. because the government could
check against the money while il was
in the banks just as easily as il could
pay it out of the Treasury, so that
the withdrawal operation is merely
transferring the money from one
pocket 10 another
II was stated at the Treasury De-
partment to-day that the Withdrawals
would be distributed all over the cOun-
try, so that the banks of no particular
section would feel the pinch. At the
same time the banks through which tho
government does not do an active
checking business should understand,
il was pointed out, that they will in
the near future lose their Federal de-
posts Incidentally, the government
will lose the per cent interest which
the banks have been paying for the
last few years on these government
deposits.
