X-854

March 29, 1918

Dear Sir:
A suggestion has been made by one of the Federal Reserve Agents
that an effort should be made to induce the banking departments

~f

the

various states to adopt for use of examiners in making reports of examination, a form used by the Federal Reserve Board's Division of Audit and
EXamination (Form 103).

It is

realized~

of course, that it will probably

be very difficult to accomplish this, and that ronny bank commissioners
may flatly decline to change thoir forms,

On the other hnnd, some of

them may be willing, .a.ftet- consulting with their examiners, .to adopt the
Board•s form, in which C'lse a step toward uniformity will have been attained.

The Board has never communicated with any of the bank commis•

aioners regarding this matter, but would be pleased if each Federal Reserve
.Aigent would ascert"lin the views upon this. subject of the bank commissioners
or superintendents ot the states in his own district.
very truly yours,

Governor.
Chairman of tho Board 1
Federal Res0rve Bank,
