ed for new banking system that
is supplementary to the CONNER
cial banks of the country, the law
provides for a gradual transfer
of part of the bank reserves to
the new reservoir" banks. In
order not to disturb business
conditions or to withdraw too
suddenly the heavy deposits of
country banks in the large cities,
the law provides that three years
may be consumed in shifting
these balances and that IL neces-
sary part of the reserves trans
ferred to the regional banks may
consist Of commercial paper.
The amount Of reserve requir-
ed from every bank under the
new law and the place where it
must be kept are as follows:
Country banks-Total reserve
required, IL per cent of demand
deposits and 5 per cent Of time
deposits. Five.twelfths must be
kept in the banks vaults for two
years and four-twelfths after
that time. For the first year, two
twelfths must be kept in the
regional bank, increasing one
twelfth each six months there
after until it reaches FIVE
twelfths of the total reserve. For
three years the unallotted part
of the reserve may be kept in the
banks of reserve cities; after
that time it must be kept either
in the country banks vaults or
in the regional reserve bank.
Reserves Required.
Reserve city banks-Total re-
serve required, Is per cent Of de-
mand and 5 per cent of time de-

kept in the banks vaults for the
first two years and five-fifteenths
after that time. Three-fifteenths
must be kept in the regional re-
serve bank for the first year, in
creasing one-fifteenth every six
months thereafter until it reach
es six-fifteenths. For three years
the unallotted portion of the re-
serve may be kept in other
banks, in its own vaults or in the
regional banks; after that time
in one of the latter places.
Central reserve city banks
New York. Chicago and St.
Louis Total reserve required,
Is per cent of demand and 5 per
cent of time deposits. x-eighe-
eenths must be kept in the
banks own vaults. seven-eight-
eenths in the regional reserve
bank and the remaining five
eighteenths in either place the
bank may choose.
Board of Directors
These immense funds of re-
serves from member banks,
together with government mon

of the regional reserve banks
Each of these banks will be ad-
