0LNEY IS NAMED
HEAD OF BANK BODY
President Selects Ex-Secretary
to Cleveland.
EXPECTED TO TAKE POST
Paul Warbure Of New York Also &c
Be Member of Federal Reserve
Board-Chicagoan Is
Appointed.

Washington, May 5.-President VIII
son has completed the roster of the
federal reserve board which will in
| augurate the operation OF the banking
system provided by the recently en-
acted currency law.
The president has invited five men
representing different sections of the
country to form the board, together
with Secretary Of the Treasury Nc
Adoo and Controller of the Currency
Williams.
The five selections are:
Richard Olney of Boston, former
secretary of state.
Harry A. Wheeler Of Chicago, mer-
chant and banker.
Paul Warburg of New York, banker
w. P. G. Harding of Birmingham,
Ala, banker.
DR.. A. C. Miller OF San Francisco,
authority on finance.
Although the president has offered
the governorship to Mr.. Olney, word
of his acceptance was still awaited
Friends here were inclined to believe
he would not decline.
The ambassadorship to Great Brit
ain was offered to Mr. Olney early last
year, but he expressed an unwilling
ness to leave the country because of
his business interests.
Although Mr. Olney is seventy.eight
years old, he is active, and has had
long experience in the business and
financial world, which the president
and his advisers believe would espe-
cially qualify him to be head of the
reserve board
With the selection of the IL region
al reserve banks, the organization of
the board has been the most vital
step in the operation Of the new cur
rency law. The banks are being or
gained and the expectation of officials
is that within another month the en-
tire system will be in full swing, al
though there are some transitions
which will occupy a greater time.
To Be Graphically Divided.
The complete board will consist Of
seven members at salaries Of $4,000
a year. The secretary Of the treasury
and the comptroller Of the currency
are ex-officio members, and the five
other members are appointed by the
president. The law stipulates that the
members should be appointed with ref
erence to the geographical, CONNER
cial and financial divisions Of the
country
