Federal Reserve
Bank Ratio Drops
ToNewLow Record
Big Borrowings by Member
Banks Responsible for
Slump in Reserves; Ex-
cess in Clearing House

The ratio Of the total reserves Of the
Federal Reserve Bank Of New York to
its deposit and Federal Reserve note
liabilities dropped to 1877 per cent for
the week ended January 2. new low
record since the inauguration Of the
present banking system. A year ago
tho ratio stood at 48.3 per cent and
week ago at 20 per cent. The banks
ratio Of gold reserves to Federal Re-
servo notes in circulation, after de-
Quoting 86 per cent against net deposit
liabilities. was 42.4 per cent at the
close Of the week, compared with 44.3
per cent the preceding week and 62.9
per cent = year ago.
Heavy borrowings by member banks
at the Federal Reserve Bank during
the week were mainly responsible for
tho decline in the ratio Of reserves to
deposit and note obligations. Total
bills on hand at the end Of the week
amounted to $1,000. 374,6 55, an increase
over the week ended December 26 Of
S40,86S. 462. This was brought about,
despite falling off of $12,766,174 in
legations. Other borrowings increased
from 1903, O5,569 to $239. sol ,206, while
bills bought in the open market (bank-
ers' acceptances) increased from $751;
S12,505 to $208, 651 sos.
The weekly statement Of tho New
York Clearing House banks showed an
increase in their excess reserves of
S46,246. AGO to $54.479. 900. On the other
hand, loans and discounts reached q
total Of $6,S7S, 776, an increase Of $780,
10000. Reserves at the Federal Re-
serve Bank increased $64,eS2, 900 to
$588 $4,000. Despite heavy withdraw
ais by the government, United States
deposits increased from 1926, 030, 900 to
$311 1884, 900. indicating that the with
drawals were moro than made up by
new deposits.
The big increase In borrowing Of the
Federal Reserve Bank last week was
undoubtedly due to the efforts Of the
banks to be fully prepared to meet the
heavy january dividend and interest
disbursements, which were estimated
at approximately $500, 000, 900 for the
entire country. With these obligations
met, coupled with the drop in the Call
money rate last Friday to per cent
bankers said yesterday that 1t was
reasonable to assume that machinery
was already in motion which would be
reflected this week in an improvement
in the Federal Reserve ratio to its cir
culation and deposit liabilities.
