Dear Sir:

Arrangements have been made with the N~tional Bank

~~de~tion Agenc~. which also assorts ~ederal Res~rve notes,

to reduce its st~ndard so that ~ greater proportion_ of used

notes will be:roturned to Federal R~serve b~nks as fit for

circulation. This step is necess~~y because the Bureau of

Engravi~g and Pril,ti1'1g tk"\s been co:1ceatr"lti£1g upon the pre­

par.11tion of Liberty Bomls, ~11d as g, result cannot camplote

otders for Federal Reserve notes ~s r~pidly as formerly.

It is B8gestod that your ota;,idard be tevised to

conform to th,_t ac'!ept~d by the i1"1tional Bank Redempti~~

.Age11cy i&1 the ~re'1aury De:,.i.rt~·.lel1t 1 :ind that •10 l1otes be

sel1t ill f •r rede: r,..ltio11 u:;:tl.esA b~t.clly worn.

Very truly yours •.
