The board authorized the reduction, effective today at the Philadelphia and San Francisro Federal Reserve banks. The same reduc'ion is expected to he jpiade at Ihe other 10 Federal Reserve banks. The board action followed a general easing in money markets in recent weeks and may be a signal that the board is ready to loosen up on bank credit even more.
