committee before the split came. The re
port says in part:
Waving strong preference which
prevailed in the committee in Favor OF a
single government bank with branches.
we accepted the regional bank plan as
the only hopeful outlook for action by
this Congress. but retained the amend
ment substituting four regional banks for
twelve. While the single government
bank plan would produce the only per-
feet mobilization Of reserves, as has been
demonstrated by the experience of other
countries, the adoption of four regional
banks under a single control will. 1t is
thought approximate this result and, in
a country so large as ours, with so
many banks, probably prove efficient.
Every addition to this number of reserve
banks must inevitably tend to dissipate
the reserves and weaken the system.
The more reserve banks the less perfect
will be the use of reserve funds. which
means that asset currency will be issued
with greater frequency and in larger
volume.

Reserves Against Deposits.

I'VE have recommended that the re-
servI aeains. deposits in reserve banks
be raised from 331s per centum to 50 per
centum, but that the reserve board may
permit a bank in emergency to run its
reserve down to % per centum, paying
however, a tax for each deficiency of 2ls
per centum.
we think it would be undesirable to
permit the federal reserve board to have
discretionary power in issuing currency
to a federal reserve bank which in all
respects complies with the provisions of
this act. We therefore recommend that
the federal reserve board shall issue re-
serve notes to any reserve bank which
complies with the requirements to gold
reserve, as to the deposit of security
and conforms to the other provisions OF
this act.
I'VE have recommended a change in
the section relating to the handling of
individual checks by reserve banks under
which banks collecting checks will still
be permitted to make reasonable charges
, under regulations provided by the federal
reserve board.
I'VE have recommended that the > per
centum bonds so acquired by the federal
reserve banks may be presented at the
Treasury an dexchanged for 3 per
centum one-year-old gold Treasury notes
Ordinarily these notes will be retained
In the reserve DankS ana nclQ as an IN
vestment While the government will be
paying1 per centum mora interest than 1t
pays on per centum bonds it will also be
receiving the surplus profits from the
ootr.,;ions of the bank, which will be an
offset These :: per centum One-year gold
Treasury notes will be an investment in
ordinary times but they will also afford
a means to the reserve banks by which
they can be useful in protecting the gold
supply OF this country.
We. have felt justified in reducing the
reserve which city banks are required to
keep to 10 per centum, and in the case
Of country banks. while the reserve re-
mains at i. per centum. We have provided
that only per centum Of this need be in
federal reserve banks. for the reason that
country banks in the immediate future are
likely to use the facilities of reserve banks
to a less extent than the city banks. We
recommend that national banks located
outside of central reserve cities be permit
ted to use a portion of their time deposits
for making fve-year farm mortgages.
I'VE have recommended that the saw
ings bank provision be stricken from the
BILL as it disrupts practice now in safe
and successful operation.
I'VE have recommended that the AL
drich- -Vreeland act be extended for one
year, so that it shall expire June, 1915
This we have done to bridge over
the period of organization which will be
req uired TO establish this new system"

Huge Capitalization.

the United States. including savings
banks. amounts to 1O.OOO,OQ0; surplus.
81. .5S5. 100000 Six per cent of this sum
would be something over S2OONO,OOO
and the total liability would make over
500, 100000. Assuming that one-half of
these concerns enter the system, 1t
would give a capital of $lUoWOoVo with
over SJO,OOO0CO paid in.
The total reserves which would De

7.l2O national banks. outside of reserve
or central reserve cities. would be $685.

000,UD: and from fifty-two central re-
serve city bany, S96.O0o,OO0, which, includ-
ing an estimated deposit of $1JO,COO,OOo
from the government. would make an
amount equal to $6I2.OOO,OCO.
IF the state banks and trust COM
panies come in. omittinS the savings
banks. it would add $279,OOOOOO of re-
serves and 81, 100000 of capital stock,
making a total of $972OOO,OO0.
1T is proposed in the pending bill to
give the stockholders per cent divi-
dends, lay up a surplus of 20 per cent,
and give the United States the additional
earnings. The policy of limiting the
dividends to per cent is based upon the
theory that these great public utility
banks are not intended to be merely
money making banks. but that they are
guardians of the public welfare.
Very important changes are made IN
the matter of bank reserves by requiring
the withdrawal Of the legal reserves from
other national banks after period OF
three years, making the change that the
country banns are required to keep L. per
cent OF their demand liabilities and per
cent of their time deposits as reserves
two-twelfths in the federal reserve bank
for fourteen months. and thereafter f1ve-
notwithstanding seven-twelfths after
three years to he optionally kept either
in the banks own vaults or in the fed

are required to keep IS per cent IF their
demand liabilities and . per cent OF zine
deposits; three-eighteenths of such re-
serve for the first fourteen months oeinG
kept in the federal reserve baEK, ard
thereafter sX-eighteenths of said reserve,
leaving twelve-eishteenths of such re-
serve TO be kept after three years either

MANNER OF DRYING UP COW

ton period to another. II is better to
milk her than to take any chances on
forcing her dry. There IL much dan.
ger In injuring the cows udder II
she Is forced dry and we have found
II the safer plan to milk the animal
from one lactation period to the next.
Notwithstanding. II is better for the
progeny and for the animal herself
to have resting period Of six to
eight weeks.
A careful observer will usually find
that from eight to ten weeks before
calying the COW will have q strong
tendency to stop giving milk. II the
mixer takes advantage Of this time.
there is usually very little trouble In
getting an animal dry but II she passes
