Subject:

Conference •rlth Comnittees of Federal
Reserve Batik Directors.

Dear Sir:The Federal Advisory Council will hold its next
meeting on Monday, May 17th. The Board wishes to have a
conference on the following day with comr.1ittees of directors
of the Federal. Reserve Banks. It is not advisable to ask
all directors to come, one reason being that it is imoortant
nqt to interfere 1~ith the routine operations of the Reserve
Banks, and the Board therefore aSks that each batik designate
three directors to attend the conference, which will open
at 10:30 A.M. on Tuesday, May 18th, in the Board's Assembly
Room in the Metr~olitan Batik Building.
The tOpics which will be discussed will relate to
the credit situation and the Boaru is anxious to exchange
views with those directors who represent the institutions
which not only borrow from the Federal Reserve Banks but
which also make loans to the public. It is desirable therefore, that the three directors chosen to represent your barik
at this cOnference be the Class A directors. As soon as the
selection is maU.e you are request.sd to notify the directors
designated and extend them an invitation on behalf of the
Federal Reserve Board to be present at the confere~ce. The
Board will approve payment by the Feueral Reserve Batiks of
all necessary traveling expenses.
Very truly yours,

Governor.

To Chairmen of all F .R. Banks.
