Elections of Directors in All Glasses
Are Being Made Rapidly by the

hington.-Treasury Department
officials were still Of the opinion that
it would be possible to have the l.
Federal reserve banks In operation by
August 1 although they say the de-
mand for money to move crops has
not been such as would suggest any
great strain to be relieved by the
reserve banks.
Practically the remainder Of June
will be required for the election OF
directors Of the Federal reserve
banks. Banks which are to become
members of reserve banks now are
balloting for directors of the A and
B classes. Each reserve bank will
have three directors Of class A and
three Of class B all named by electors
selected by the various member
banks. Three directors of class c
are then to be designated by the Fed
.eral reserve board and must be men
with banking experience.
The organization committee has
not made any call upon member
banks as yet for the initial one-si1th
of their subscriptions to the capital
stock of the reserve bank to which
they wish to belong. Such call
hardly would be made until after the
Federal reserve board is confirmed by
the senate and takes up its work in
Washington.
Much detail work awaits the Fed
eral reserve board after it assumes Of
fee. Secretaries and assistants to
the members must be selected and a
complete system Of reports for the
reserve banks must be worked out.

finding the man of the hour-he who
can reconcile the warning factions
and maintain peace while a constitu-

Incidentally General Carranza's note
transmitted by Rafael Zubaran, his
representative in Washington, arrived

to the mediation conference with full
instructions.
The mediator's made no comment
on the note. It contains no reference
