THE BANKING ACT.
Dec. 24, 1913
As soon as the President shall have appointed a Controller of the Currency the work of organizing the new banking system under the act signed by him last night will begin. The Secretary of the Treasury, the Secretary of Agriculture, and the Controller of the Currency, acting as the Reserve Bank Organization Committee, will designate the reserve districts, not less than eight nor more than twelve, in which the Federal Reserve Banks will be organized. Two members of this Organization Committee will have authority to act, but it is expected that a Controller of the Currency will be immediately appointed. The reserve districts having been established, all national banks will be required within thirty days to subscribe to the capital stock of the Federal Reserve Bank in their respective districts, and banks and trust companies not in the national system may also signify their acceptance of the terms of the act and become member banks.
