Federal Reserve Board Takes
Steps to Learn if InterIock-
ing Directorates Exist.
H. R. DELANY, JR., NAMED
TO CONDUCT INQUIRY
Antitrust Feature, Applying to
Financial Institutions, Becomes
Effective October Is.

The federal reserve board has as
signed H. R. Delany, jr., assistant
counsel Of the board, to the work of
determining whether the provisions of
the Clayton antitrust act applying to
stitutions under federal supervision
and control are violated.
The law in this regard becomes ef-
fective October Is, and Mr.. Delany has
a mass of work ahead Of him before
that time.
The original act provided that no per-
son should be a director, officer or en-
ploye of two institutions under federal
eating $5,000.000 Private bankers in In
stitutions Of this magnitude were also
forbidden from serving in banks OF
reserve membership or similar size.
The same prohibition extended to bank
ing establishments in cities of 100000
inhabitants.
Meant to Assure Competition.
The law did not undertake to pre-
vent interlocking directorates of banks
located in small cities and having small
aggregate resources. The main purpose
of the act was to prevent monopoliza-
ton and Capitalization of credit
through interlocking directors of bank
ing institutions in large cities, thereby
depriving the public of legitimate COM
petition.
Recognizing that there might be
some injustice in the original act, Con-
gress passed an amendment, which was
approved by President Wilson May 16
last, permitting the same directors, Of
flcers and employees to serve in as many

those institutions were not in sub
stantial competition" with each other.
The amendment requires, however.
that before this interlocking official
relation shall be allowed the federal
reserve board must give consent.
Blanks for Applicants.
printed and sent to persons desiring to
serve as officers of more than one in
stitution in which they are required to
set forth the names of the institutions
and the relation they are to occupy to
each, and declaring that there is no
substantial competition.
The applicant must also set out his
business relation with all other firms
and corporations he is connected with
and the position he occupied in this
business.
Blanks nave also peen sent TO the
federal reserve agents requiring them
to report upon the applications of per-
sons wishing permission to serve in
more than one institution, and these
reports must be made after careful ex-
amina ton of all the business and bank
ing institutions with which the appli-
cant is connected and whether the ap-
plication should be granted or refused.
Through the applications required by
law and the reports that will be re-
ceived upon each the federal reserve
board will be enabled to keep in close
touch with the presence of men in a
number of banking institutions.
