returned from the annual meeting

About It's representatives of in
stitutions in the Fifth District
which are stockholders in the
Federal reserve bank We're in at
tendance at the meeting and greatly
appreciated the able address de-
hvered by the Hon. Carter Glass,
of Virginia, who had a great deal
to do with the inception OF the
Federal reserve system and who
stressed in his talk the Importance
OF the enactment of the McFadden
bill which is now before the Senate.
National banks are, naturally, all
greatly interested in seeing this
measure become a law.
