MINNEAPOLIS RESERVE
BANK REDUCES RATE
Was Last of Federal Chain on
S Per Cent. Basis.

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 15.-Establishment
of 4 u per cent. rediscount rate on ali
classes of paper except bankers ac-
ceptances, effective upon approval by
the Federal Reserve Board at Wash
ington, was announced here to-day by
John II. Rich, chairman of the Ninth
District Federal Reserve Bank in Min
neapolis. The new rate will supersele
the 5 per cent. rate, which has been in
effect since January IL, 1922.
The change does not, in the opinion of
the board of directors of the Federal
Reserve Bank, reflect any material
change in the banking situation in the
Ninth district. 1t was adopted to effect
a more normal relation between the rate
OF the Federal Reserve Bank of Mime
apolis and other reserve banks.
OF the twelve reserve banks Mime
apolis was the only one on a per cent.
basis, the rates of the other banks hav-
ing eased gradually during the spring
