COMMITTEE ANSWERS
RESERVE BANK CRITICS

The loans and discounts OF all report
ing banks and trust companies I'm Kan
sas city on June 4, 1919. amounted 70 sol
$4,000. exceeding by about 100000 the
total loans and discounts OF all banks and
trust companies in the cities Of Omaha
Denver and Lincoln combined.
Opposition to Denver.
The great preponderance in the move
ment Of trade in District No. 10 is to the
East. In order to place the Federal Re
serve Bank for that region in Denver il
would have been necessary 10 disregard
these facts and the opposition and earnest
protests OF banks-both national and state
throughout the district"
In defending its selection OF Richmond
rather than Baltimore or Washington the
committee says. in part:
North Carolina, South Carolina and
Virginia preferred 10 be connected with
Richmond. West Virginia was divided in
its preferences; Maryland and the District
Of Columbia, of course, desired Baltimore
or Washington. IL the poll OF banks
made directly by the Controllers office
Richmond received more first choice bal
lots than any other city in the district,
1877 against rs for Baltimore. IS for Pitts
burgh. IS for Columbia. 5. c.: 81 for Gin
cinnati and % for Washington. or the
remaining q votes. 10 were for Charlotte
y. c.. and two for New York. Leaving
out the states OF Maryland and Virginia,
Richmond received from the rest OF the
district three times as many first choice
votes as were cast for Baltimore.
District No. 3 is composed Of the
states OF Maryland, Virginia, West Nir-
GINA Except four countless North and
South Carolina, and the District OF Co
lunbia. These states have always been
closely bound together commercially and
financially and their business dealings are
large and intimate. The reports made
20 the Controller OF the Currency or
March 4. 1914. by all the national banks
In each Of the states show In every es-
sential respect that the business OF the
national banks OF Virginia, including
Richmond. Is greater than the business OF
the national banks OF Maryland, including
Baltimore or any other Of the five states
embraced in District No. 8
