The weekly statement of the Fed- eraT Reserve showed the system's holdings of U. S. governments lit- tle changed. The system's govern- ment securities holdings were $27,- 000 less, while bill holdings expand- ed $4,352,000.

Deéspite holiday currancy requirements estimated at $100,000,000, call money renewed unchanged at 2 per cent.
