FEDERAL RESERVE BO ARD WASHINGTON ADDRESSOFFICIALCORRESPONDENCETO THEFEDERALRESERVEBOARD X-9156 March 21, 1935 Dear Sir: In the Board’s letter X-3552 of October 5, 1922, a copy of which is attached, the Board advised the Federal Reserve banks of the titles which, for comparative purposes, it v;ould regard as I designating official positions and this list has, with one or two exceptions, been followed since that date. The exceptions are the positions of "Economist" and "General Statistician" at one of the Reserve banks and certain modifications in the titles of "Auditor" and "Counsel" such as "General Auditor" and "General Coun sel". Recently, the Board was informally advised that the directors of one of the Federal Reserve banks feel that the position of "Chief Examiner" in the Federal Reserve Agent’s department should also be classed as an official position. The Board appreciates the fact that the activities of the Federal Reserve banks have changed materially since 1922, particu larly in the Federal Reserve Agent's department, and consequently it may be desirable to revise the list of titles which, for com- X-9156 - 2 - parative purposes, have previously been regarded as designating of ficial positions. Accordingly, it will be appreciated if you will advise the Board of any changes which in the opinion of your directors should be made in the list of titles contained in the Board’s letter of October 5, 1922, together with their reasons for sxich changes. Very truly yours, yZtXLXSJ Chester Morrill, Secretary. Inclosure. TO ALL CHAIRMEN EXCEPT NET?

Any changes in this list will be promptly brought to the attention of each Federal Reserve Bank.
