The Federal Reserve Bank OF Rich
mond. has received plaster model OF
it's new building. which Is now on view
at the bank. The purpose OF the mod l
is TO give an accurate idea OF the pro-
portions and effect OF the building
Although the plans OF the building
were drawn before the enormous cX-
pansion in the business of the bank,
consequent upon governmental ard war
activities, the size and the appoint
mcnts Of the building are upon scale
TO accommodate The growth of the
bank as far as il can be foreseen in
the lish; OF experience, for at least n
generation ahead. The ground pur-
chased BY the bank at Ninth and
Franklin Streets is more than ample
for its needs.
The building is constructed so as to
give the maximum of light. and n white

Demand for Schedule Revision

Tho following bulletin. was issued
last night at the genera! offices of the
Chesapeake and Ohio lines in this city:
"Dircctor-Gcncral McAdoo went over
the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway on
an inspection tour to-day. and seeing
the crowded condition OF the passenger

ford tho travelling public the necessary
facilities. This additional service is to
be made effective immcdiatcly''
At tho last meeting OF the Tuesday
Club ut the Railway Y. NJ c. a.. an
address was made by Thomas c. Dggs
Of this city. in which he called atten-
tion to the inadequate and badly ar
ranged train schedules out OF Rich
mond, which cut off Il large part OF the
Commonwealth from connection with
the capital city and make it impossible
for the newspapers OF Richmond to
reach large areas until after papers
from Washington. Philadelphia and
even New York arc delivered. The
matter has been called to the atten-
ton Of Judge William F. Rhea. OF the
state Corporation Commission. and il
is expected. in view Of Mr. McAdoo's
order. that new schedules will be de-
rised. giving moro adequate service
hoth Tor passengers and for mail over
all parts of the Chesapeake and Ohio
lines.
source of serious complaint has
been in the morning local train leav-
Ing Richmond at $50. which operates
only TO the lower station in Charlottcs-
vile passengers desiring TO change TO
tho Southern Railway at that point
have TO be transferred through the CITY
and have their baggage hauled from
the lower station to tho I-piop Daro,
Morning papers from Richmond for
points beyond Charlottesville are not
earned from Richmond until the train
leaving here at l p. NJ. daily
Complaint has also been made as to
inadequate train service between Rich
mond and Norfolk. In view OF the i'm
mcnse war activities in the Hampton
Roads section. II is regarded as most
that there should be no
train from Richmond to this section
from o'clock in the afternoon until
q o'clock the following morning.
