This was the sixth call made by the
Comptroller Of the Currency during 1914.
Also 1t was tho first time more than five
calls per annum had been made. The
fact that the call II for the last day of
the year also lie unusual. The law specl-
fles that the Comptroller shall call for
statement not less than fivo times year.
In the past Comptrollers have deemed
that number OF calls sufficient and local
bankers are wondering why John shelton
williams has found IL necessary to put
them to the added expense OF answering
another call.
