BOARD OF G O V E R N O R S
• F THE

FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM

X-9746

WASHINGTON
ADDRESS

November 23, 1936.

OFFICIAL C O R R E S P O N D E N C E
TO THE

BOARD

Dear Sir:
It will be recalled that in 1954 the board suggested a
procedure by which informal consideration might be given in advance
of January 1 of each year to any important adjustments in salaries
at the Federal reserve banks which the directors might have in contemplation and upon which they would expect to take formal action in
accordance with the usual procedure in January.

While the Board did

not carry this suggestion into full effect, it seems to the Board as
now constituted that pending further consideration of the matter it
is desirable, in the interest of full cooperation between the Board
and the directors of the Federal reserve banks, to adopt such a procedure with respect to salaries for 1937.
Therefore it will be appreciated if the board of directors of ycur bank will advise the Board at the earliest practicable
date as to any adjustments that it contemplates making in salaries
of officers of the bank for the year 1937.

The Board will then con-

sider the information and if it has any question respecting the proposed action it will communicate with you for the purpose of obtaining additional information or arranging an informal conference for
the purpose of discussing the matter.

It is suggested that in submitting in January, in accordance with the usual practice, pursuant to formal action by the directors, the lists of officers and their salaries for 1957, the information be furnished in the manner indicated by the inclosed form
X-9746-a.

In case the bank's counsel is not an officer of the bank,

his annual retainer fee and any additional compensation for clerk
hire should be shown separately.
In addition, in accordance with the usual practice, there
should be submitted as early in January as practicable a statement
showing the name of each employee of your bank and its branches, if
any, on January 1, 1937, and the salary paid to each employee as of
January 1, 1936, and January 1, 1937.

The statement should be pre-

pared in accordance with the attached sample form X-9746-b, in order
to facilitate checking the information against the approved personnel
classification plan for your bank, which is on file with the Board.
It is also requested that a summary statement showing the
number of employees as of January 1, 1956, and as of January 1, 1957,
and salary changes since 1936 by salary groups be submitted in accordance with the attached sample form X-9746-c.

As in the past,

the schedules should cover all employees on the bank's payroll, including those whose salaries are reimbursed to the bank in whole or
in part.
Very truly yours,

Chester Morrill,
Secretary.
