WHEREAS, In the establishment of the Regional Bank

WHEREAS, it has come to the knowledge of the Chamber of
Commerce of Pittsburgh that the banking inetitutions,comprising
Groups /To. 7 and 8 of the Pennsylvania Bankers' Association

intend to make application to the Reserve Bank Organization
Committee to so modify the plan as to permit of the banking
institutions of Western Pennsylvania being included in the
District, the Regional Bank of which is located at Philadelphia,
and
WHEREAS, such application is made for the reason that
the natural trend of the business of the banking institutions
ofWestern Pennsylvania is away from the City of Cleveland and
towards Philadelphia and the Edxt, and
WHEREAS, such re-arrangement would be of great advantage and benefit to the banking and voluminous business interests of Western Pennsylvania, be it therefore
RESOLVED, That the Chamber of Commerce of Pittsburgh
strongly endorses the proposed application and respectfully
urges upon the Reserve Bank Organization Committee that it make
the necessary modifications of the plan so as to include Western Pennsylvania in the Philadelphia Regional Bank District.

Hon. Jno. Skelton Williams,

Dear Sir:
Our Mr. Merrill Requests me to ask if our bank
cannot be transferred to Federal Reserve Bank at Philadelphia, instead of Cleveland.
Our reason for this is we have very little business with
Cleveland and since Pittsburgh was not selected as one of
the Reserve cities, we would much prefer to be attached
to District No. 3.
Trusting you can grant our request without inconvenience
to yourself, we are,
Very sincerely yours,
Act. Cashier.
