Notes

Series Is Presented Here As Two Variables--(1)--Original Data, 1919-1939 (2)--Original Data, 1948-1959. Figures Relate To Rates Charged By Reporting Banks To Their Own Customers, As Distinguished From Open Market Rates. All Averages Are Based On Rates Reported For Three Types Of Customers Loans, Commercial, Demand, And Time Loans On Securities. The Method Of Computing The Averages Takes Into Account Relative Importance Of Each Of These Three Types Of Loans And The Relative Importance Of Each Reporting Bank As Measured By Total Loans. In The Two Group Averages The Average Rate For Each City Included Is Weighed According To The Importance Of That City In The Group, As Measured By The Loans Of All Banks.
