RESERVES
Up 70 MILLIONS
Banks Supply of Idle Funds
Rises Further to ST.
45O,OOO,OO0.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
The Federal Reserve Board reported
a 100000 increase in member bank
excess reserves during the week ended
March IT.
The increase lifted banks supply of
idle funds to Sl,450,00G 900. Since
March l, when 1928 per cent in
crease in deposit reserve requirements
went into effect, excess reserves have
climbed $140,OO0,ooO.
These reserves provide the basis for
credit expansion and the supply thus
has an important effect upon interest
rates.
About S700 100000 of the present re-
serves will be frozen" when another
1879 per cent hike in reserve require
ments is effective May l. Chairman
Mariner S. Eccles of the Federal Re-
serve Board has said, however, that
a sufficient supply will be retained to
provide easy money" conditions.
The increase for the week ended
March IT was attributed partly to a
S99,000000 decline in Treasury de-
posits with Federal Reserve banks.
When the Treasury withdraws these
deposits they enter business and in
dustry and are deposited with COM
mercial banks, thus increasing the
supply of idle money.
The boards statement said:
During the week ended March II
member bank reserve balances in
creased S8l 100000. Additions to
member bank reserves arose from an
increase of S3l000,O00 in gold stock
and a decrease of $4,000 900 in Treas
ury deposits with Federal Reserve
banks, offset in part by a decrease of
$4,000, 900 in Reserve bank credit and
increases of S9,000,000 in money in
circulation, $25,O00,000 in Treasury
cash and S12,000,0OO in non-member
deposits and other Federal Reserve
accounts. Excess reserves of member
banks on March II were estimated to
be approximately s1,450,O0O, 900. an
increase of 100000 for the week.
Inactive gold included in the gold
STOCK and in Treasury cash amounted
to s284,000.O00 on March IT, an in
crease of s3l 100000 for the week"
