BANKS To
SWELL CAPITAL
FOR RESERVE
Atlanta Fnanciers Confident That
Stock Required by Currency
Act Will Be Exceeded.

1t is confidently believed that the
Atlanta Reserve Bank will begin ITS
existence with capital stock of more
than $45OO,OOO or, more than half a
million in excess Of the amount re-
CURED by the currency act. This is
the assurance borne by state and ma
tional banks within Atlanta's district
to Federal authorities
The assurances come from 80
banks, whose combined capital is So
356,913.
Following a letter from John Skel-
ton Williams, Comptroller Of the Cur
rency the directorates Of the Atlanta
banks will meet within the next few
days to adopt resolutions enabling
them TO subscribe stock of the reserve
bank. Immediately after the adoption
of the resolutions the banks will make
the proper subscriptions amounting
to per cent Of the capital stock ~
each case. Including State banks and
trust companies of Georgia which
have made application for membe~-
ship in the new bank, the total CAPT
taliZation will be S4702. $50, figured on
the 6 per cent basis.
Soon after stock subscriptions the
Federal reserve board, acting for the
President, will name members Of the
regional reserve boards. 1t is likely
that New Orleans. Nashville and Biz
mingham will be represented on the
board OF the Atlanta bank each Of
