ruary 2 (Serles c, 1920. This issue win
not remain open for any stated period
but will be closed without notice. Fed
eral reserve banks will not assign quota
in respect to this issue to the banks of
their districts.
2. There will be no issue of loan GER
tifcates upon September Is. An issue

cess Of this and the first issue, totalling
