FIRST CALL GIVEN
EARLY attention
N. B. HUTCHINSON TELLS Or OPEN
ING DAY OF FEDERAL RE-
SERVE BANK.

M. B. Hutchinson, director of the fed
eral reserve bank of Chicago. in the fol-
lowing, interview gives some interest
ing facts regarding the organization OF
the new banks:
There are in the Chicago district,
which is known as district number
seven, total of OIL banks. The cap
ital paid in by these banks on Novem-
Der was $2,194, 1908, and was prac-
tically all paid in gold certificates and
all paid in within a few days of Novem-
Der @ This is one-third of the actual
capital to be paid in.
November 16 was the day fixed for
the opening OF all the federal reserve
banks.
The Chicago bank received on this
day up to the close of business total
of 3O,622,350.08 in deposits. This is
about three-fourths of the amount re-
CURED to be paid in for the present, as,
the total deposits of the first call will
be about forty million dollars. The
.. governor of the bank informs Mr..
Hutchinson that of this enormous de-
post $26,607,S40, was in gold or gold
certificates. This showing is remark
able when you consider that the official
call for the payment of these reserves
did not reach the banks until the open
ing date.
Mr. Hutchinson further says that, al
though the notice of the opening date
gave very little time for preparation,
the work of organizing was so well
done that all business presented on the
opening day was transacted promptly
and satisfactorily.
The clearing functions of the bank
will not be all taken on at the start
The Chicago bank is now ready to re-
ceive drafts drawn by member banks
on the federal bank itself and on mem
Der banks within it's district located in
the cities known as reserve cities un-
der the old law AS soon as this is
working smoothly additional functions
will be added until the full machinery
of the bank is in operation
There were no discounts made the
first day but before the end of the
week Mr. Hutchinson expects that a
fairly good demand for funds will de-
velop.
