N E W YORK, October 30,

1914.

To THE PRESIDENT.

Referring to the payment of the first installment of the capital stock of the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York to be made at the office of the New York Clearing House Association on
Monday, November 2nd, it is possible that the National banks of this city will be asked to
make a number of payments for their correspondents in other parts of the district.
It would greatly facilitate the prompt handling of these payments and the issue of the
Certificates of Payment if each bank would present with its payment each day a schedule, listing the member banks for which payment is made, stating the amount paid by each and giving
specific directions for the delivery of the Certificates.
It would also facilitate the handling of these payments if these schedules, accompanied by
the gold certificates, in large denominations, could be delivered at the Clearing House before
12 o'clock each day, and if any payments directed to be made subsequent to that hour could
be delayed until the following business day.




Respectfully yours,
BENJ. STRONG, JR.,
Governor.
