NEW YORK. Feb. 24.-Copper
sales during February have already
exceeded any other month since last
September.
Sales during the first 81 DAYS
totaled more than 10000 tons COM
pared with record sales of 183627
tons for the entire month OF Sep
tember.
In view of the heavy buying
movement, copper circles believe
that stocks of refined metal in the

month end are published. At the
end OF January refined stocks were
equivalent to only five or six weeks

Excess Bank Reserve,
Advance 10 New
Record in Week
U. S. Gold Purchases
And Treasury Spending
Are Fuctors
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Idle money in the Nations banks
reached a record high of S. 500, 900, :
900 this week.
The Federal Reserve Board said
the unprecedented total was at
tanned in the seven days, ended Feb
ruary 2l. due to an increase of $780,
600, 900 during the week arising from
Treasury gold purchases and spend
ing.
Because money lent by banks
comes back to them in the form of
deposits and can be partially re-
lent, officials estimated the supply
OF excess reserves in the banks was
the potential basis for about $40
600, 10000 worth of credit.
The possibility of such vast credit
expansion and Its inhationary eff
feet has caused the board to warn
Congress several times in the last
two years that new powers will be
needed to control credit. However,
actual use of credit by business has
been so slack in recent years that
other Federal agencies have spent
much Of their time urging banks
and businessmen to utilize more
credit.
Excess reserves of Enthusiastically
called idle money-are the portion
OF money in banks not needed by the
banks under Federal regulations to
protect deposits. Thus, if bank
is required to keep a 20 per cent
reserve on deposits, $50 of every
500 deposited in the banks becomes
an excess reserve unless lent out
Or invested.
The boards statement said:
During the week ended February
81 member bank reserve balances
increased 500, O,OOO,OOO Additions to
member bank reserves arose from
decreases of $4,000 900 in Treasury
cash, $46,00O000 in Treasury depos-
its with Federal Reserve banks, and
$18,000,000 in non-member deposits
and other Federal Reserve accounts.
and an increase of $45 100000 in gold
stock, Offset in part by decrease of
$7,000,000 in Reserve Bank credit
and an increase of $39000O00 in
money in circulation. Excess re-
serves of member banks on February
81 were estimated to be approxi-
mateiy $3.50 900, 900. an increase of
$4,000. 900 for the week"
Changes in member bank reserve
balances and related items during
the week and the year ended Feb
ruary 81, 1910, were reported as fol-
