WASHINGTON, Deo. 2S.-The federal
reserve bank organization committee to
night supplemented Its plan for locating
federal reservo cities with an unofficial
announcement pointing tho way for all
cities to present their claims for banks.
Before the committee, consisting ot Sec
retary of the Treasury McAdoo and Sec
retary of Agriculture Houston, starts
upon Its tour of the country, It will ad
vise Clearing House associations and
Boards of Trade In cities tnsH aro in tho
field for a reserve bank when they can
1m heard.
Only fourteen cities, In addition to
Washington, will be visited, but it was
the understanding tonight that any city
and any community can be heard at some
point on the trip around the country,
which has been mapped out.
Although details for the hearings have
not been worked out, It Is probahli that
tho claims of Baltimore, Philadelphia and
Washington will bo heard here. Pitts
burgh will have nn opportunity either In
Cleveland or Cincinnati, Fort Worth
Tex., which Is In the field, will be al
lowed to argue In Houston and St. Paul
nnd Minneapolis in Chicago. Information
tho committee procures will be useful In
determining tho boundaries of the reserve
districts.
Number Not Decided On.
It Is said that neither cabinet ofricer
on the organization commltteo had de
termined upon the number of reservo dis
tricts and cities. Tho trip to bo taken
Is almost as much for this purpose na
for actually locating tho cities ond de
fining tho districts.
Officials of the treasury today praised
tho decision of tho committee to work
out the district limits and cities by pub
lic hearings.
Tho commltteo took its first formal
stop today when It mado official an
nouncement of tho procedure to bo fol
lowed by banks which wish to make
legnl application for membership In tho
new system. In accordance with this
announcement every bank desiring mem
bership shall, within sixty days, through
Its board of directors, pass a resolution
certifying Its desire to enter tho system.
It provides for tho full acceptance ot
the terms of tho law and expresses the
intention of tho board to subscribe on
behalf of the bank for stock in the
proper federal reserve bank.
l'lllntr the First Step.
The filing of this form will bo the
first step of a bank toward membership.
It will have nothing further to do to-
ward coming Into tho system until the
organization commmco uimuuiivra m.
geographical limits of Its district and
the city whet Its reserve bank is to be
located.
Within thirty, days after such an
nouncement a bank must take the sec
ond step that will bind It to tho federal
system. It must begin to put up its
money for stock In the district federal
reserve bank. Each bank entering must
subscribe to stock In the federal bank
equal to C per cent of Its paid up capital
and surplus, but not all of this sum Is
to be paid at once.
Informal application from banks con
tinued to reach tho treasury today, but
officials were surprised when they re
ceived telegrams from several Individ
uals who wished to subscribe for stock
In reserve banks. The law provides that
Individuals may subscribe, but if the
banks continue to come In there will be
little stock left when' their time limit
has expired.

The proper drinking
of pure Beer
but not the abuse of it, is good for
everyone.
It flushes the system of waste. Most
people drink too little liquid. Their
systems become clogged with waste,
thus impairing the efficiency of the
nervous and digestive organism.
Drink Schlitz in
Brown Bottles
and get all the good without the
harm. It is not enough to make
pure beer it must be kept pure.
"Beer exposed to light for five min
