'J a- STATE BAg Preliminary 128 MEMBERSHIP. Investigations. . _ Referring to memorandum submitted under date of April 27, 1917 - in connection with - Atascosa County State Bank, Jourdanton, Texas. Friendly cooperation with State Bank Commissioner is es sential. It would be well to have an applying bank request the Bank Commissioner to furnish to the Reserve Bank copies of examination re ports. Requests should be made only for necessary information. In some states joint examinations have not met with the approval of the Bank Commissioner, as the presence of the Reserve Bank Examiner was apparently considered as a reflection upon the State Examiner. In many of the states, however, the assistance is weloomed. A report of an examination made within a few months prior to the filing of an application should give the Reserve Bank Committee reliable data. In some states the standard of examinations is not such as to warrant the Reserve Bank Committee in accepting a report as a proper basis for a favorable recommendation. In such instances a special investigation by a representative of the Reserve Bank will be necessary. Again, in at least one state while the Bank Commissioner is authorized by law to furnish copies of reports of examinations of member banks, he has ruled that he is not permitted to furnish any information prior to a bank becoming a stockholder of the Federal Reserve Bank. In those states where the examinations by State authori ties are of a standard satisfactory to the Board and it is not pos sible to obtain from the Bank Commissioner a copy of the report of the last previous examination, and where in view<of the reputation of the applying bank it is not considered by the officers of the Reserve bank necessary or desirable to have a special investigation made by an examiner of the Reserve Bank, the applying bank should be requested to furnish over the signatures of the president or vice-president and the cashier or an assistant cashier additional data as to loans and invest&onts to enable the Reserve Bank Committee to determine its condition. Memorandum of information desired is attached. Where an investigation is made by a representative of the Reserve Bank it should cover a detailed examination and report of the investments, loans and discounts with particular attention paid to the credit standing of borrowers and the valuation of investments and collatera. Respectfully submitted, J. A. BRODERICK. *j >i , STATE BAIK MEMBERSHIP. GENERAL INFORMATION DESIRED, 1. Copy of the last periodical report filed with the State Bank Commissioner. 2.
