Prefatory Note The attached document represents the most complete and accurate version available based on original copies culled from the files of the FOMC Secretariat at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. This electronic document was created through a comprehensive digitization process which included identifying the bestpreserved paper copies, scanning those copies, 1 and then making the scanned versions text-searchable. 2 Though a stringent quality assurance process was employed, some imperfections may remain. Please note that some material may have been redacted from this document if that material was received on a confidential basis. Redacted material is indicated by occasional gaps in the text or by gray boxes around non-text content. All redacted passages are exempt from disclosure under applicable provisions of the Freedom of Information Act. 1 In some cases, original copies needed to be photocopied before being scanned into electronic format. All scanned images were deskewed (to remove the effects of printer- and scanner-introduced tilting) and lightly cleaned (to remove dark spots caused by staple holes, hole punches, and other blemishes caused after initial printing). 2 A two-step process was used. An advanced optical character recognition computer program (OCR) first created electronic text from the document image. Where the OCR results were inconclusive, staff checked and corrected the text as necessary. Please note that the numbers and text in charts and tables were not reliably recognized by the OCR process and were not checked or corrected by staff.

Banks allowed CD's to run off for the seventh straight month, and the bank credit proxy declined. (3) Following the August FOMC meeting, the Desk continued to provide reserves consistent with the Federal funds rate remaining in a range of 6-1/8 to 6-1/4 per cent. On the basis of data for the aggregates that became available after Labor Day, the staff reduced its projection of M1 growth for August-September to the lower part of the Committee's range of tolerance and its projection of M2 growth below the bottom of the range. In view of the expectation of a substantial strengthening in demands for money and credit over coming months, and the likelihood that a decline in the Federal funds rate may have to be reversed shortly, the Committee concurred on September 5 in the Chairman's recommendation to instruct the Desk to continue aiming at a Federal funds rate in a 6-1/8 to 6-1/4 per cent area, leaning toward the lower figure. In the most recent statement week, the funds rate averaged 6.15 per cent. (4) Treasury bill rates have changed little on balance since the August meeting, even though the Treasury continued to add significantly to the supply of bills. 6.45 per cent. The 3-month bill was most recently trading around Private short-term rates, on the other hand, increased 10-15 basis points, as the demand for funds in the commercial paper market rose. -3(5) Over most of the intermeeting period, yields on Treasury coupon issues edged lower, and corporate bond yields remained about unchanged, reflecting the stability of short-term rates, System purchases of coupon issues in late August, and a lull in the volume of new offerings in both sectors. Municipal yields rose to record levels during the intermeeting period as the financial problems facing New York City continued to cast a pall. However, on September 9, the New York State legislature adopted a financial plan that would avoid a near-term default on the City's outstanding securities and cover the City's cash needs through mid-December. In atmosphere improved and prices of MAC issues strengthened. Treasury's September 10 announcement of its remainder of 1975, however, yields in response, the market Following the sizable cash requirements over the all bond markets adjusted upward. Throughout the intermeeting period, mortgage rates advanced as demands for mortgage funds expanded and lenders became more uncertain as to the cost and availability of savings funds. (6) The Treasury indicated that it would be raising about $44 to $47 billion in the second half of 1975, which is about $3-$6 billion more than previously announced. Allowing for the funds already raised since mid-year, the remaining cash need to be covered between now and year-end appears to be in the $23-$26 billion range. A substantial amount of this will be auctioned between now and the next Committee meeting. The Treasury will raise $1 billion of new cash in the monthly 2-year note auction on September 16, and will offer $2 billion of 29-month notes on September 24. It is also likely that another $5 billion will be auctioned in the note market near the time of the next Committee meeting on October 21. Meanwhile, the Treasury will also be adding to weekly and monthly bill auctions, though in auctions by somewhat lesser amounts than in recent months. the case of the weekly -4(7) The table on the following page shows (in percentage annual rates of change) selected monetary and financing flows over various time periods. -5Calendar Year Twelve Months Past Six Months Past Three Months Past Month Aug.

Deposit expansion in the previous months had been dampened as the public brought deposit holdings into a more normal relationship with income and interest rates, following the sharp bulge in late spring resulting from special Treasury payments. This process now appears to have been completed. Under alternative A --which assumes the same Federal funds rate range for the forthcoming intermeeting period as that adopted at the last meeting--M 1 is expected to rise at an annual rate in the 6½-3½ per cent area over this and the next month on average. M 2 growth is also likely to accelerate, mainly reflecting the more rapid expansion on demand deposits. -6aAlternative Levels and Growth Rates for Key Monetary Aggregates Alt. A Alt. B Alt.

(10) If Federal funds over the next few weeks were to continue trading in the recent 6-1/8--6¾ per cent range, market interest rates generally would be likely to show little further net change. Interest rates on Treasury securities--particularly bills and short-intermediate issues--have been adjusting upward recently in response to the cash need and financing package announced by the Treasury on Wednesday. Some further yield increases could occur, though, as the new securities are auctioned, with about $8 billion of new cash to be raised through auctions of coupon issues between now and around the time of the next meeting. (11) Business borrowing in the corporate bond market over the weeks ahead is likely to be at a slower rate than in the first half of this year, though picking up from the reduced August pace and still quite sizable by historical standards. The prospective volume of state and local government issues remains relatively large. The municipal market could be stabilized, for a time, by the assistance package for New York City enacted by the New York State legislature. It is possible that the period of calm may last into the fall, but there are still substantial uncertainties in the market, typified by the slow reception initially accorded the recent offering of generously priced short-term New York State issues. (12) Given the large amount of Treasury borrowing that is being compressed into the next month or so, as well as the still sensitive -8state of the municipal market, a significant rise in the Federal funds rate--for example, toward the upper end of the 5-3/4--7 per cent range of alternative A--would likely lead to substantial further yield advances. Interest rate increases would be accentuated if strengthening credit demands on banks from businesses and consumers were at the same time reducing bank willingness to add to Treasury security holdings. (13) in While alternative A basically assumes little the Federal funds rate between now and the next meeting, believes the funds rate would have to rise later in or no change the staff the fall if the monetary aggregates are to remain on track with the Committee's longerrun objectives. A funds rate in the 7-7 per cent area would be expected by late fall, assuming a longer-run M 1 objective characterized by 7 per cent growth from QII '75 to QII '76 (the assumption of the Green Book GNP projection), with further funds rate increases anticipated in the first half of next year. Attainment of a longer-run 6 per cent annual rate of growth in M1 would be likely to require more prompt and intensive pressure on the funds market. In view of the further interest rate increases expected given either of these two M1 growth rates,we have assumed, in working out all of the alternatives in this bluebook, a small upward adjustment in Regulation Q ceilings around year-end of ¼ to ½ percentage point on time certificates. is With this assumption, longer-run M2 growth projected toward the low end of the Committee's announced target range under alternative A. -9(14) Alternative C encompasses an immediate substantial tightening of the money market and is characterized by a Federal funds rate range for the intermeeting period of 6 -8 per cent, centering on 7¼ per cent. With growth in nonborrowed reserves more constrained, member bank borrowing under this alternative would be likely to rise to $400 million or more, given the 6 per cent discount rate. Nonetheless, growth of M 1 in September-October would probably be reduced somewhat, area. to the 6-8 per cent Interest rates generally would rise quite sharply during the next month under this alternative, particularly given the very large Treasury financing demands described in paragraph (6). rate to [8]per cent or a little A rise in the 3-month bill above would not be unlikely, and the yield on 2-year Treasury notes could exceed 9 per cent. (15) Such rate levels would undoubtedly divert savings flows away from banks and thrift institutions. The staff would expect the annual rate of growth in consumer-type time deposits at banks and deposits at thrift institutions to drop to around a 7-8 per cent rate in October. Pressures on such flows would be intensified later in the fall and early next year, when further increases in the Federal funds rate would be expected. (16) Under alternative C mortgage market conditions may be expected to tighten rather promptly, with rates rising further over the next few weeks and with lenders becoming less willing to make loan commitments. Under alternative A, and to a certain extent under alternative B (to be discussed below), strains on the mortgage market would be more delayed and less severe. The assumed adjustment in Regulation Q ceilings would temper the impact of upward market rate adjustments on savings inflows to thrift institutions after year-end, but the mortgage market would still pressure next year. be expected to come under additional -10(17) Alternative B contemplates a modest tightening of money market conditions between now and the next Committee meeting, as indicated by the 6-3/4 per cent mid-point of a 6-7 funds rate range. per cent Federal As in the other alternatives, additional tightening would appear to be necessary later this year and early next year. The staff has assumed that the Federal funds rate under this alternative would probably rise to the 7 -8 per cent area by late fall. This particular funds rate pattern would be consistent with a one-year growth rate for M1 between QII '75 and QII '76 downward revision of $1.2 billion in second quarter of 1975, average level of M1 in 6 of 6-3/4 per cent. Given the the average level of M1 in such a growth rate would result in the the same the second quarter of 1976 as was implied by the per cent growth path presented in the previous bluebook. -11Proposed directive (18) Given below is a proposed operational paragraph if the Committee wishes to continue formulating its instructions in terms of desired growth in monetary aggregates over the months ahead. No alternatives are presented for this formulation, in the expectations that the reference to desired growth will be taken to apply to the longer-term targets and that the Committee will not be reconsidering its present 5 to 7 per cent target range--with which all of the short-run operating alternatives discussed in the preceding sections are consistent--until the October meeting. "Monetary aggregates" proposal To implement this policy, while taking account of developments in domestic and international financial markets, the Committee seeks to achieve bank reserve and money market conditions consistent with moderate growth in monetary aggregates over the months ahead. (19) Should the Committee desire to formulate the directive in terms of bank reserve and money market conditions, the language needed would depend on the specific conditions sought.
