SHARP HIT SEEN
$790,000,000 Total‘Frozen’
Under Increase in
Requirements.
By the Associated Press.
The Federal Reserve Board reported
that $790,000,000 of idle bank funds
were "frozen” under the Increase in
deposit reserve requirements effective
on March 1
The 16% per cent increase will be
followed by a similar raise effective
May 1. The higher requirements were
ordered to head off a possibly injuri
ous credit expansion.
In its weekly condition statement,
the board said member bank excess
reserves stood at $1,310,000,000 on
March 3, compared with $3,100,000,000
in the previous week. The further
requirement Increase May 1 is expected
to effect a similar reduction. Thus,
on the basis of the present excess re
serves, only about $500,000,000 of idle
money will remain.
After May 1, the board expects to
exercise flexible control ov^r the supply
of loanable funds through the pur
chase or sale of Government securities.
The condition statement today
showed a $35,000,000 increase in money
in circulation during the week ended
March 3 to $6,407,000,000, a new high
for this year and $559,000,000 over the
same week a year ago.
This outflow of funds into circula
tion had some effect in reducing excess
reserves, exclusive of the reduction
caused by the raise in reserve require
ments.
The board's statement said:
"During the week ended March 3
member bank reserve balances de
creased $45,000,000. Reductions in
member bank reserves arose from a
decrease of $3,000,000 in reserve bank
credit and Increases of $35,000,000 in
money in circulation, $18,000,000 in
Treasury cash and $36,000,000 in
Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve
banks, offset in part by increases of
$18,000,000 in gold stock and $3,000,000
in Treasury currency and a decrease
of $24,000,000 in non-member deposits
and other Federal Reserve accounts.”

NEW YORK COTTON
B7 the AModttrd Press.
NEW YORK, March 5.—Renewed
active buying developed in cotton to
day to carry prices to further new
high ground following early reactions.
Weakness of the franc brought in
foreign demand while Wall Street
and Western buying waa attracted on
the advance.
May, which had eased from 13.22
to 13.14 in early trading, rallied to
13.45 and was holding at the best in
midafternoon, when prices were 19 to
29 points net higher.
New Orleans Prleei.
NEW ORLEANS. March 5 (/Pi.—Small
net losses were marked up against cotton
futures at the opening today
May opened at 13.15. July at 12 89.
October at 12.43 bid and December at
12.45. In the first half hour options
fluctuated narrowly around these levels.
Selling was light at the first call, but
buying Interest was not as settve as It
has been the past week.
The President's mrsssge last night was
actively discussed. The ring however, did
not consider It offered anything that
should change the present course of prices.
Cottonseed oil futures opened steady.
