Under the law the several steps to be taken by the banks might be de- layed so that there would be little chance of setting the reserve banks up before autumn, but if the banks respond promptly, there is little req son to believe that the organization will be deferred longer than a few months
 The committee has worked akBull speed on it's part of the preliminary work and tomorrow the formal notice will be sent to the 7,5iS banks which ask entrance to the system. of the location of the reserve banks and the limits of reserve districts.
 With the notices will go blanks on which banks must apply for sub scriptions for stock on the reserve banks. Thirty days are allowed for banks 10 make the first payment Of the required 6 per cent of their capi- tai and surplus.
 As soon as banks in any one dis trict have subscribed the $4,000,000 capital necessary for d reserve bank the succeeding steps of organization will be promptly taken. The reserve bank will be given a charter and the member banks will exercise their right to elect six Of the nine direc- tors of each reserve bank
 President Wilson probably will name the five members of the fed eral reserve board he is entitled to appoint by the time the banks and the reserve bank charters have been granted to them. Then tue admins. tration is expected to do its utmost to push the organization of the sys- tenn along. The reserve board will name three directors of each reserve bank and with this task performed the banks will be ready to operate.
 Officials here were interested to- day in what limitations may be placed upon clearing house assoeia. tons through the new system. The reserve board will have much power over such associations, but no one in authority cared today to predict how far t might go toward curtail- ing their activities. The board, how ever is not expected to interfere with the local functions of any sucs association but its action may take the line of lessening their grip, par ticularly in the larger cities.

 Mr. McAdoo saN the amount re- qlired by banks had been much less than he expected. and attributed this fact to the restoration of confidence when it became known that the treasury was ready to render such assistance.
