The State of North Carolina has authorized and appointed commissioners to take under consideration a plan for settling the indebtedness of that State to the United States, but Congress postponed action on a measure providing for representatives on the part of the Government.
Commissioners representing the Government and the State of Tennessee, under provisions of law, have had under consideration a plan for settling with that State. It is apparent that some progress has been made toward a settlement with the two States named in the foregoing for the unpaid matured bonds of those States belonging to the United States.
The special trust held for the District of Columbia represents, first, investments on account of the sinking fund; and, second, obligations that belong to the District of Columbia.
The special trust held for the board of trustees, Postal Savings System, consists of postal savings bonds and Liberty loan bonds, representing investments made by said board.
Recommendation has been made to Congress for authority to return to the State of Louisiana the bonds of that State captured
REPORT OF THE TREASURER OF THE UNITED STATES 13 at Shreveport by the Union forces during the War of the Rebellion, now held as a special deposit by the Secretary of War.
The special trusts held for the Secretary of the Treasury are composed of notes of the Panama Railroad Co., drawing 4 per cent interest, payable to the United States, and is security for money advanced for the equipment and construction of said railroad; and interest-bearing obligations of foreign governments payable to the United States, acquired under acts of Congress approved April 24, 1917, and September 24, 1917, as amended and supplemented, July 9, 1918, Februarv 25, 1919, March 30, 1920, February 9, 1922, February 28, 1923, March 12, 1924, and May 23, 1924.
POSTAL SAVINGS BONDS AND INVESTMENTS THEREIN
Under a general authority in the postal savings law (act of June 25, 1910), the trustees of the Postal Savings System have arranged to take over at par any of the postal savings bonds that depositors may wish to turn back.
Under the arrangement made by the trustees they have taken over at par all of the bonds offered by the depositors, and at the close of the fiscal year 1924 the Treasurer of the United States held $9,504,780 of such bonds, which are registered in the name of the Board of trustees.
WITHDRAWAL OF BONDS TO SECURE CIRCULATION
National banks did not file with the Treasurer of the United States any applications to sell for their account United States bonds securing circulation during the fiscal year 1924 under the provisions of section 18 of the Federal reserve act.
LAWFUL MONEY DEPOSITED IN THE TREASURY DURING THE FISCAL YEAR 1924 FOR THE REDEMPTION OF NATIONAL-BANK NOTES
The lawful money deposited in the Treasury each month of the fiscal year 1924 for the redemption of notes of banks insolvent, in liquidation, and reducing their circulation is shown in Table 25, page 45.
DEPOSITARIES OF THE UNITED STATES
The Secretary of the Treasury determines the number of such depositaries and the amount of public money required in each for the transaction of the public business, fixes the amount of balances they may hold, and requires the banks thus designated to give satisfactory security, by the deposit of United States bonds and otherwise, for the safe-keeping and prompt payment of the public money deposited with them and for the faithful performance of their duties as financial agents of the Government. All of the depositaries, except the Federal reserve banks, are required to pay interest at the rate of 2 per cent per annum on the average monthly amount of public deposit held.

Whenever balances to the credit of the Treasurer of the United States in general national-bank and insular depositaries or the Treasury of the Philippine Islands are reduced below the amounts » fixed by the Secretary of the Treasury, by the cashing of Government checks and warrants, restorations are immediately made by telegraph directing the appropriate Federal reserve bank or branch to credit the depositary bank’s reserve account or to make payment to its correspondent. During the fiscal year 1924 such restorations numbered 4,261 and aggregated $126,930,929.
UNITED STATES PAPER CURRENCY ISSUED AND REDEEMED
The paper currency outstanding at the close of the fiscal year 1924 issued under the direct authority of the Government amounted to $2,431,259,424, of which $436,227,415 was in denominations of $1 and $2 notes.
The Federal reserve bank and national-bank circulation outstanding at the same time amounted to $3,133,383,079, of which only $7,690,116 was in denominations of $1 and $2 bills. The amount of $1 and $2 notes required to meet the needs of circulation has averaged about $444,890,327 during the past four years; therefore it can be readily seen that under present conditions the burden of supplying the greater part of such notes must be borne by the Government.
REPORT OF THE TREASURER OF THE UNITED STATES 15
The paper currency issued by the Government during the fiscal year 1924 amounted to $1,436,668,000, and the redemptions were $958,497,447. The increase in gold certificates was $481,373,450, while silver certificates decreased $3,159,140 and Treasury notes of 1890, $43,757. The United States notes remained at thefixed amount.
The amount of each kind of paper currency issued and redeemed during the fiscal year 1924 is recorded in the following statement:

In a study of the foregoing table it will be observed that the United States notes issued and credited in the general account as a receipt are offset by an equal amount of worn or unfit notes in kind withdrawn therefrom, canceled, and retired, which is in accordance with the provisions of the act of May 31, 1878. In explanation of the manner of issuing and redeeming gold certificates, silver certificates, and Treasury notes of 1890, it may be said that for certificates issued and credited in the general account an equal amount of the respective kinds of money held in the general account is transferred therefrom to, and retained in, the trust funds for their redemption; for gold certificates, silver certificates, and Treasury notes withdrawn from the general fund, canceled, and retired, a like amount of the respective coins is released from the trust funds and brought into the general fund in their stead.
PAPER CURRENCY PREPARED FOR ISSUE AND AMOUNT ISSUED
The pieces of United States paper currency outstanding at the close of the fiscal year 1923 numbered 452,095,598 of the total value of $1,954,088,871. The Treasury has to maintain this great number of pieces and also to provide for the annual growth of such denominations as may be in demand. The reserve vault should be well stocked with such currency in order that it may be properly seasoned before it is paid out.

REDEMPTIONS OF PAPER CURRENCY
The wearing quality of the paper currency is put to a severe test in the course of its travels through the channels of trade during the year and for this reason the redemptions follow at only a short distance the issue of Government paper. The pieces of United States paper currency redeemed during the fiscal year 1924 numbered 541,937,683 of the total value of $958,497,447. The pieces redeemed were 46,781,322 less than those issued and the amount was $478,-170,553 less than the amount issued during the year.
The transactions, by months, for the fiscal years 1923 and 1924 are compared in the annexed table:

INTEREST ON PUBLIC MONEYS HELD BY DEPOSITARY BANKS
Interest is collected semiannually from depositaries of public moneys (except Federal reserve banks) at the rate of 2 per cent per annum on the basis of 181 days to the half year from January 1 to June 30 (first half leap year, 182 days) and 184 days from July 1 to December 31. Each depositary is required to render to the Treasurer semiannually (January 1 and July 1) an interest report showing daily balances held by such bank for the prior six months and the amount of interest due and paid thereon. These reports are checked with the ledgers of this office.
Interest was first collected by the department under the provisions of the act of May 30, 1908, on all special and additional deposits in general depositaries and on all deposits in limited depositaries at the rate of 1 per cent per annum. In accordance with instructions contained in letter of the Secretary of the Treasury, dated April 22, 1912,

ISSUE, EXCHANGE, AND REDEMPTION OF MONEY
The distribution of available supplies of United States paper currency and coin, exchanges and replacements thereof, and payments on account of redemptions of currency and coin will, so far as practicable, be effected through the Federal reserve banks and branches. Federal reserve banks and branches have been instructed by the Treasury to make an equitable and impartial distribution of available supplies of United States paper currency and coin in all cases, and applications therefor should be made to the Federal reserve bank or branch of such bank located in the same district with the applicant. Distribution of new gold, silver, and minor coin will not be made by the Treasury so long as there are available sufficient stocks of circulated coins in the Federal reserve banks and branches or in the Treasury offices.

REPORT OF THE TREASURER OF THE UNITED STATES
23
Federal reserve notes, and Federal reserve bank notes, when not mutilated so that less than three-fifths of the original proportions remain, will be redeemed at their face value in new currency. When mutilated so that less than three-fifths, but clearly more than two-fifths of the original proportions remain, are redeemable by the Treasurer only, at one-half the face value of the whole note or certificate. Fragments not clearly more than two-fifths are not redeemed, unless accompanied by the evidence required in paragraph 11.
11. Fragments less than three-fifths are redeemed at the face value of the whole note, by the Treasurer only, when accompanied by an affidavit of the owner or other person having knowledge of the facts that the missing portions have been totally destroyed. The affidavit must state the cause and manner of mutilation, and must be subscribed and sworn to before an officer qualified to administer oaths, who must affix his official seal thereto, and the character of the affiant must be certified to be good by such officer or some one having an official seal. Signatures by mark (X) must be witnessed by two persons who can write, and who must give their places of residence. The Treasurer will exercise such discretion under this regulation as may seem to him needful to protect the United States from fraud. Blank forms for affidavits are not furnished. The department can not make reimbursement for currency totally destroyed.
V.—REDEMPTION, EXCHANGE, AND PURCHASE OF UNITED STATES COIN
12. Gold coins and standard silver dollars of the United States, if of legal weight and not defaced or mutilated as below defined, are full legal tender, and, being such, are not redeemable, but may be exchanged for other forms of money, particularly for gold certificates and silver certificates, respectively. Gold coins, when not mutilated but reduced in weight by natural abrasion below the limit of tolerance fixed by law, will be accepted by the Federal reserve banks and branches and the Treasurer of the United States, at bullion value; the abrasion loss being determined by deduction from the face value of each coin at the rate of 2 cents for each half grain below standard weight. Before the return of any light-weight gold coin to the owner at his request, it should be stamped with the letter “L” or other distinguishing mark. Standard silver dollars, when defaced, but not mutilated as below defined, will be accepted at face value. Subsidiary silver coins (halves, quarters, and dimes) and minor coins (1-cent bronze, and 5-cent nickel) will, upon demand, be redeemed in lawful money or exchanged for other forms of money. If shipped to the Treasurer of the United States for redemption, subsidiary silver and minor coins should be assorted by denominations into packages in sums or multiples of $20, which apply to subsidiary silver and minor coins separately. Such coins should be shipped loose in cloth bags. Shipments put up in wrappers, envelopes, or rolls of paper will not be received. Not more than $1,000 in silver coin, $300 in 5-cent pieces, or $100 in cents should be shipped in one bag or package.
13. No foreign or mutilated coins will be received for redemption at face value. Coin is mutilated when punched, clipped, chipped, or otherwise appreciably reduced in weight by any means other than natural abrasion; that upon which any name, advertisement, or other
24 REPORT OF THE TREASURER OF THE UNITED STATES
unauthorized impression has been made; that to which paper or any other substance is attached; or that which has otherwise been so defaced as to be not readily and clearly identified as to genuineness and denomination. Mutilated silver coin will be stamped by the receiving officer with a distinguishing mark before it is returned to the depositor. Mutilated gold coins of any denomination will be received at any of the mints or assay offices of the United States, and the value of the fine gold contained will be paid to the depositor at the rate of 820.67 + per ounce, fine (1.000); or 818.60 + per ounce, standard (0.900). Mutilated silver coins will be purchased at the mints in Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Denver, at the price fixed from time to time by the Director of the Mint, for silver contained in gold deposits. Mutilated gold and silver coins should be transmitted to the mints by registered mail or by express (charges prepaid) and upon receipt, the value thereof, when so forwarded, will be returned in the same manner at the seller’s expense and risk, or by check on the Treasurer of the United States.
14. Minor coin that is so defaced as not to be readily identified, > or that is punched or clipped, will not be redeemed. Pieces that are stamped, bent, or twisted out of shape, or otherwise imperfect, but showing no material loss of metal, will be redeemed at face value.
15. Mutilated minor coins will be purchased at the mints in Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Denver, in lots of not less than one pound of each kind, at a price (the approximate value as metal) fixed from time to time by the Director of the Mint.
The coinage mints are located in Philadelphia, Pa.; San Francisco, Calif.; and Denver, Colo. The assay offices are located in New York, N. Y.; New Orleans, La.; Carson City, Nev.; Boise, Idaho; Helena, Mont.; Deadwood, S. Dak.; Seattle, Wash.; and Salt Lake City, Utah.
VI.—GENERAL INFORMATION

The public moneys in the hands of any depositary of public moneys may be transferred to the Treasury of the United States or may be transferred from one depositary to any other depositary as the safety of the public moneys and the convenience of the public service shall require.

The transactions which have been related, so varied and so vast, impose on the Treasurer’s office the keeping of many accounts with great responsibilities, which were conducted with rare accuracy and promptness during the past year and offer the best proof of the capacity, fidelity, and efficiency of the officers, chiefs of divisions, clerks, counters, and employees of every grade in the office of the Treasurer. They deserve and receive my cordial thanks for their excellent services.
Respectfully,
Frank White,
Treasurer of the United States.
