Main Aim Is to Give Great Elastic

In Order That Panics Such

Washington, Nov. 17.-With the
opening of the twelve federal reserve
banks, the nation has begun actual op-
Grafton Of its new currency system
designed to provide an elastic circula-
ton medium, based upon modern ideas
Of finance and economics.
Year for Details.
It has taken the reserve banks or
ganiZation committee and the federal
reserve board almost twelve months
to work out details OF organization to
the point where IN opening date was
chosen. Notwithstanding the careful
deliberations which preceded every
preliminary step, the twelve banks
will not for many weeks take UP and
exercise all the functions bestowed
upon them by congress.
Such evolution as VIII result from
an old national banking system Of
necessity will in most respects be
slow. The reserve board, the guiding
spirit of the new system, is itself feel
ing its way ever strange ground and
the men in charge OF the twelve banks
probably VIII feel the same desire TO
work slowly and with sureness rather
than be yenturesome.
Really a Compromise.
The new system is generally con-
coded to be a compromise between
a central bank and the present sys-
tenn with it's thousands If rni.e sca+.
