When telegrams favoring Seattle were presented to the senate today by Senator Polndextrr Senator Burton declared that the organization committee should be left entirely free from outside influences In determining where the new banks were to be located.

The conference agreed to leave Alaska out of the new system. firrr Dond Provisions, The new provision for the refunding of the government 2 per cent bonds and the retirement of the present national currency is as follows: National banks may make application to the treasurer of the United States to have their bonds sold at per and ac crued Interest. The treasurer will pre pare a list of all such applications and furnish it to the federal reserve board. The latter may compel the regional re rerve banks to purchase annually a total of not more than $25,0000) of these bonds. The purchaie money for the bonds will go to the treasurer, who will pay It to the banks selling the bonds, first de- I dueling idoiikIi to rover the value Of all the hs: notes at 111 outstanding. The regional ieerve banks that purchaso be permitted to take out in-'aMrs cough and for the chronic coug.i.t ot elderly people it is soothing nnd the Iwnds wil' I eallng an" stops ticKiing tnroat. j'or an amount or new currency equal to cnle by all dealers everywhere.-Advei'- ; the par value of the bonds, or they may iserucnt. ' I curn one-year gold notes of the United Provision for Klnntlctty. The new law will make little direct chango In the operation of tho present national banks, except to allow them to loan a certain amount of their funds upon farm mortgages. Its chief purpose Is to add a new pleco of machinery to tho banking system that "will tako up the slack" during business changes of each year; that will give tho banks a placa to quickly convert their assetB Into cash In tlmo of need, and that will bring out new federal currency when It Is needed and retire It when money be comes "cheap." Banks are now required to keep a cor tnln perccntago of their deposits na-"reserves," part In cash In their own vaults and part of which may be rcdeposltcd In tho banks of Now York, Chicago, St. Louh and other designated cities. In times of sudden financial demands when banks have loaned up to the full limit of their resources, these reserves furnish little relief, because If they arc paid out to meet demands tho banks are left In a precarious condition. The basic prlnclplo of the new law Is to get theso reserve funds out Into cir culation when necessary without lessen ing the safety of any bank; and to pro vide a placo to which local banks may rush in a crisis and get cash for tho "prlmo commercial paper" they hold In their vaults. Heaervolrs of Heserves. This is to bo accomplished through a chain of regional reserve banks or "re servoirs or reservees" In which all banks shall deposit a stated part of the money they nre required to hold as reserves. Under the new system when a financial flurry comes the banks can take com mercial paper. Vch as notes, drafts and bills of exchange to theso "reservoirs" and secure the use of their own reserves, or It necessary, even tho reserve of othor banks, by depositing this security. The now regional banks will receive about one-half of the bank reserves of the country. They, in turn, will be per mltted to loan back to tho banks all but 33 per cent ot these reserves, so that In case of emergency, millions of cashcan be brought out into circulation quickly. Tho banks will have to pay for these loans, however, as individuals have to pay for a loan from any bank and this charge Is expected to prevent the too free use of the reserves held by tho reglonnl bnnks. Xe.iv Form of Currency. A now form of paper currency Is also provided for to come out In case of emergoncy nnd which is expected to go back Into tho hands of tho government when times aro normal. These "treasury notes" will be printed by tho government and Issued through each regional reserve bank and will bear tho guarantee both of the regional bank and the government. If the demand for currency in any sec tion of the country exceeds the HUpply of circulating money, a regional hank can secure this new money from the government nnd put it into circulation; but a gold reserve of 40 per cent nnd commercial paper equal to the full value of tho note must bo held as a reserve be hind each note so issued. This provi sion is expected to be the Influence that will drive the new monoy back into re- I tlrcmcnt when it Is no longer needed The following analysis presents the de tails of the new law without adhering closely to the technical division or lan guage of the measure. At the head of the system will stand a federal reserve board at Washington appointed by the president and to con sist of the secretary of the treasury, the comptroller of tho currency and five other members. Two of these shall b expert bankers, but none shall have banking affiliations or own bank stock during their service. This board will exercise general control over the entire system. Selecting IteaerTe Cities. The temporary "organization commit tee" or the federal reserve board, will select from eight to twelve cities where regional reserve banks shall be located and will divide the entire country geographically with these cities as the centers of districts. All national banks In a district will be required to subscribe for tho stock of tho regional reserve banks In that district and to keep a por tion of their reserves there. Local bonks will be known oh "member banks" because they will own the stock of tho regional reserve bank of their dis trict. Each member will bo required to take capital stock of the regional re serve bank, equal to 6 per cent of tho member bank's capital and surplus. Tho capital ot the regional bank will Increase or decrease, so that It always represents 6 cr cent of the combined capital and surplus of all the banks of the district that have joined tho system. Nat'onnl bnnks arc compelled to Join and state banks arc permitted to If they bring their reserve requirements up to the standard ret for national banks and submit to national examinations. Piibll'- ownership of the stock of the regional banks Is permitted only In case enough banks do not join in any district " regional bank's paid-in capital theso earnings are 10 go inio me i mien outim treasury, Tho remainder of tho net cnrnlngs are to bo divided between the payment of n United States franchise tax nnd tho crentlon of n fund to guarantee the payment of depositors In member banks that may fall. With the machinery thus created for a new banking system that ts supplemen tary to the commercial hanks of the country, the law provides for a gradual transfer of part ot the bank reserves to these now "reservoir" banks. In order not to disturb bustnch! conditions or to withdraw .ton suddenly the lieavy de posits ot country banks in the large cities tho law provides that two years may be consumed in shifting these balances, nnd that, if necessary, part of tho reserves transferred to tho regional banks may consist of commercial paper. The amount ot resorvo required from every bank under the new law and tho place whero It must bo kept is as fol lows; Country Banks Total reservo required. 13 per cent of demand deposlis and 5 per cent of tlmo , doposlts. Four-twelfths must be held In tho bank's own vaults, 2-12 In tho regional reserve bank for tho first six months, Increasing 1-12 each six months until It reaches 6-12. After two years tho remaining 3-12 of tho reserve must be kept either In the country banks or in tho regional reservo bank. Reservo City Banks Total reserve re quired, 15 per cent of 'demand and 5 per cent of time deposits.
