FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD
WASHINGTON
ADDRESS OFFICIAL CORRESPONDENCE T O
THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD

December 21, 1928,
St. 6020.
SUBJECT*

Earnings, Expenses and Dividends
Reports of State Bnnk Members..

Dear Sir:
There are being forwarded to you today under
separate cover
copies of form 107 for the use of
State "bank members in submitting their reports of earnings, expenses and dividend payments for the s i x months
ending December 31, 1928.
You v/ill note that the form i s the same as
that used for the l a s t report. In case any of the banks
make inquiry as to whether or not i t w i l l be necessary,
in the reports f o r the current six months, to make the
undivided p r o f i t s and reserve items on form 107 agree
with those reported in their condition reports form 105,
i t i s suggested that they be advised to report the items
in accordance with their previous practice. I t i s expected that instructions for their future guidance in
preparing reports on form 107 v a i l be issued before the
next c a l l .
In continuation of the policy heretofore f o l lowed and in order that a l l reports may be as complete
and accurate as p o s s i b l e , i t w i l l be appreciated i f you
w i l l write for additional information to a l l banks which
f a i l to report an amount or write the word "none"against
any item on the report, or which write the word "none"
where there i s good reason to believe that a figure
should have been reported, e . g . , i n t e r e s t received on
investments or on balances with other banks or i n t e r e s t
paid on time deposits.
Very truly yours,

Walter L. Eddy,
Secretary.
