Reserve Bank Acts to
Check Interest Charges
Calls ON Members for Informa'
ton on Rates; Move to Keep
Market at Lowest

For the purpose Of obtaining ar
accurate check upon the interest rates
which member banks are charging
clients upon various classes of loans
and investments where such paper is
later submitted to the central institu-
tion for rediscount, the Federal Reserve
Bank Of New York has sent out re-
quest to all member banks in this dis
trct asking for periodical reports OF
this and other details of commercial
loan transactions. Some Of the other
Federal Reserve Banks have made q
practice Of obtaining this information
from member banks for several months
Although officials of the Federal Re
serve Bank Of New York would not
comment yesterday upon the step taken
to obtain this information, the move
was viewed in the financial district az
being an effort on the part Of the tinan~
cial author to see that open market
lending rates of member banks are kept
in line with Federal Reserve rediscount
rates, which lately have been steadily
falling until they stand currently al
41a per cent.
The information obtained in this
connection will indicate to the Federal
Reserve Bank authorities the spread
between the rate Of interest obtained
by a lending bank from customer and
the rate which the bank pays the Fed
eral Reserve Bank for the privilege Of
rediscounting that particular paper
with the central institution.
The Federal Reserve Bank Of New
York continues to receive information
weekly from the New York Stock Ex-
change relative to the volume of stock
market loans outstanding, as we'll as
other important facts relative to such

The absorption of the Second Ma
tonal by the National City Bank is
considered. in Wall Street to be logi-
cal development, in view of the fact

the two institutions have been close,

National City being also stockholders
of the smaller institution. The Still
