teaspoonful of this harmless fruit

foul constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passes out Of the bow

the country banks and vaults or in the
regional reserve bank.
Reserve city banks-Total reserve
required, Id per cent. of demand and
per cent. of time deposits. Six-if-
teenths must be kept in the banks
vaults for the first two years and five
fifteenths after that time. Three-ff-
teenths must be kept in the reginal
reserve bank for the first year, In
creasing one-fifteenth every six
months thereafter until it reaches six
fifteenths. For three years the un-
allotted portion of the reserve may be
kept In other banks, in its own
vaults, or in the regional bank; after
that time In one of the latter two
places.
Regional Reserve Banks.
These immense funds OF reserves
from member banks" together with
government moneys, will make up the
deposits of the regional reserve banks.
Each Of these banks win be admins
tered by board of nine directors, six
of whom will he elected by the banks,
and three appointed by the federal re-
serve board.
The regional reserve bank may re-
district-that is, buy at a discount
from its member banks-"prime COM
mercial paper" when the member
banks desire to convert these assets
into money.
Character Of Paper.
The exact terms of this important
provision as to the character of paper
upon which the regional reserve banks
may furnish cash are as follows:
Upon the Endorsement of any Of its
member banks, with waiver of de-
mand notice and protest by such
banks, and federal (regionaD reserve
banks may discount notes, drafts, and
bills of exchange arising out of act
ual commercial transactions; that is.
notes, drafts, and bills of exchange is
sued or drawn for agricultural, indus
trial or commercial purposes, or the
proceeds of which have been used, or
are to be used, for such purposes, the
federal reserve board to have the
right to determine or define the char
acter of the paper thus eligible for
discount, within the meaning Of this
act.
Eligible for Discount.
Nothing in this act contained shall
be construed to prohibit such notes.
drafts and bills of exchange, secured
by staple agricultural products, or 9th
err goods, wares, or merchandise, from
being eligible for such discount; but
such definition shall not include notes,
drafts, or bills covering merely invest
ments or issued or drawn for the
purpose of carrying or trading in
stocks, bonds or other investment Sc
curities. except bonds and notes OF the
government of the United States.
The ELASTIC" Element.
The new treasury notes, which are
to furnish the elastic" element in the
currency system. and to add to the
country's circulating money in time OF
need, will come into use in the follow
ing way
The notes will be printed by the gov
eminent, with a distinctive style for
each regional reserve bank One OF
the three directors named by the fed
eral reserve board for each regional
bank will be known as the federal re
serve agent" fOrfthat bank. and sup

ply of the notes will be placed in his
custody.
Should a regional bank desire to
pay out more money than its cash re-
sources will permit, the law provides
that it may put some of it's rediscount-
ec commercial paper into the hands
of the federal reserve agent" and re-
ceived in return the new treasury
notes.
For each note that 1t puts out into
circulation, the regional reserve bank
must set aside in gold 40 per cent OF
the value of the note as a guarantee
for it's redemption. This gold, with
the commercial paper held by the
federal reserve agent" is the pro-
lection behind the new money; but
these notes will also be guaranteed by
the government and may be redeemed
in gold in the United States treasury.
Reserve Required.
Each regional bank, under the act,
must keep a reserve of 35 per cent of
the deposits it has received, besides
the 40 per cent. gold reserve behind
the treasury notes it issues. If the
gold reserve behind the notes falls be-
low 40 per cent. heavy tax is i'm
posed on the bank, which in turn adds
the tax to the rate it charges member
banks for rediscounts. This was de.
signed to stop an over-expansion of
currency. In times of sudden stress
the federal reserve board can suspend
these reserve provisions, in order to
furnish quick relief to any commu-
nifty.
Take UP Bonds.
None of the existing forms of cur
rency except the national bank notes
will be disturbed by the new law. The
United States bonds, now used to Sc
cure the issue of national bank notes,
are to be taken up at the rate of $685.
100000 year by the regional re.
serve banks and new treasury notes
or short term three per cent. bonds
will take their place. National bank
currency is expected gradually to re-
tire.
The federal reserve board will exer-
else final control over the entire OBJ
Grafton of the system. 1t can compel
one regional bank to loan to another
in time of need; can suspend all re-
strictions surroundings the reserves
which regional banks must hold, and
can remove directors of regional re.
serve banks whenever 1t is believed
necessary.
Banks In Control.
While the banks retain control of
the boards of the regional reserve
banks, their connection with the fed
eral reserve board is only through
an advisory board is only though
an advisory council, made up of one
representative from each federal re-.
serve district. This council will meet
In Washington to confer with the fed.
eral reserve board "on general bust.
ness conditions" and to make recon-
mendations and suggestions concern
ing discount rates, note Issues, and re.
serve conditions.
An important change in national
banking methods embraced In the new
law will permit all national banks ex.
cept those in New York, Chicago and
st. Louis to make direct loans on five
year farm mortgages up to rs per cent
OF their capital and surplus, or up to
! one-third Of their time deposits.
