The daily average of busi- ness transacted by the Birming- ham branch of the Federal Re- serve Bank of Atlanta has trebled since the bank was opened, August 1, 1918, two years ago.
 Figufes representing the growth of this institution in this brief period speak eloquently of the growth of northern and western Alabama. the ter ritory which it serves.
 The daily average of checks and transit items handled by this bank Y, during the first month of it's exist ence, August. 1918, was s,161; the daily average for the month of June, the nearest for comparison. was 9,o77 items.
 $1,927, ,509 DAILY
 The items handled in August, 1918, totaled a daily average of $1,927,509 in June, 1920, they totaled $s,s29,es4. 1 This is an increase of 900 per cent the amount represented.
 In the month of August. 1918. the bank handled currencv amounting to s2, 900, 900; in June. 1920, it handled s7. 900, o0o
 This is an increase of 25o per cent. 1 The capital and surplus of member banks in August, 1918, was $11.26, $50; on July q. 1920, this was s13,153,11O. The increase is s1,S92,460
 Reserve deposits of member banks in August 1918, amounted to s5,O97, 900; in June they amounted to s6.25S, 100. | This was an increase of S1,136, 100.
 s1O1, ,553,4S0 IN JUNE i Deposits of member banks in Au- gust, 1918. amounted to s7162S.33o; in June they amounted to s101, ,553, ,4S0. The increase was s29,925. 50, or 40 per fcent
 | It hnS been ascertnined that
 about one-haIf of this increase in
 bank deposits is in the member | district.
 When the bank opened it was as- signed fiftythree members; it now has sixty-four member banks. l The bank started with fourteen em- lployes; if now has twenty-three, due to the increase in the volume of bus ness handled.
 LOCAL BULK
 There are located in the state oi Alabama about 250 state banks ant about 100 national banks, whose tota deposits amount to approximately s230, 900, 900. The sixty-four member banks located in the territory served lby the Birmingham branch of the fed eral reserve bank contain about 4t per cent of the entire deposits of tho state and national banks of Alabama.
 The city of Montgomery Is in the Atlanta territory and the city of Mo bile is in the New Orleans territory All of southeast Alabama is likewise embraced in the Atlanta territory.
 It has been realized that the Birming ham branch of the federal reserve system was playing an important part in the financial and commercial affairs of northern and eastern Alabama. but the 200 per cent increase in the bulk of business in two years time will lit is believed prove a pleasant and en' coura ging surprise to the average citizen.
 The growth of this bank is regarded as a direct reflex of the growth o the prosperous section of the south land which it serves.
