SU M M ARY
The 13,445 banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corpora­
tion at the end of 1961 comprised 97 percent of all incorporated banks
of deposit. Deposits in insured banks totaled $281 billion, and an esti­
mated $164 billion was insured under the limit of $10,000 for each
depositor. (Pp. 4, 22.)
The deposit insurance fund amounted to $2,354 million on December
31, 1961, or 0.84 percent of total deposits in insured banks. (P. 22.)
Five insured banks, with deposits of $8.8 million, required disburse­
ments from the insurance fund during 1961. All were victims of financial
irregularities and were placed in receivership. These closings brought
to 445 the total number of banks whose depositors have received financial
assistance from the Corporation. (Pp. 4-5.)
During 1961, 254 banks operating nearly 2,000 offices were involved
in absorption transactions approved under Section 18(c) of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Act. The Corporation considered and approved the
31 cases where the resulting bank was a State nonmember insured
bank. (Pp. 10-11, 60-84.)
The number of banks declined during 1961, but the number of bank­
ing offices increased by 897 to a total of 26,002, due to growth in the
number of branches. (P. 49.)
Assets of all banks totaled $322 billion on December 31, 1961, and
represented an increase of 8 percent during the year. Insured commercial
banks had assets of $277 billion, and insured mutual savings banks, $37
billion. (Pp. 50-51, 102.)
Net income after taxes of insured commercial banks in 1961 totaled
$2 billion, practically unchanged from 1960. Reduced retentions in
capital accounts, along with increased assets, reduced the capital ratio
slightly to 8.0 percent. (Pp. 47, 123.)
The maximum permissible rates which insured commercial banks
not members of the Federal Reserve System may pay on time and
savings deposits were increased by Corporation regulation in December
1961, effective January 1, 1962. (Pp. 14-15, 29-31.)

P a r t ic ip a t io n

Nationwide insurance of bank deposits was first embodied in the
Banking Act of 1933, which established the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation. The insurance became effective on January 1, 1934, under
a temporary plan, and was initially limited to $2,500 for each deposi­
tor, but was increased to $5,000 on July 1 of that year. Banks in the
continental United States that were members of the Federal Reserve
System and had been licensed to reopen after the banking holiday of
1933 were required to participate and other qualified banks were per­
mitted to do so.
The Banking Act of 1935, which became effective on August 23 of
that year, provided for a permanent plan of insurance, replacing a
plan in the Banking Act of 1933 that never came into force. The Act
of 1935 continued the $5,000 coverage for each depositor, provided for
an annual assessment of one-twelfth of 1 percent of deposits, and specified
in more detail the supervisory responsibilities of the Corporation. These
provisions were unchanged for the next 15 years, a period during which
the chief legislative action affecting the Corporation was provision for
retirement of the Corporation’s original capital that had been provided
by the Treasury and the Federal Reserve banks.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Act of 1950 made a number of re­
visions in deposit insurance: the insurance limit was raised to the pres­
ent maximum of $10,000 for each depositor, provision was made for an
annual assessment credit to insured banks after allowance for Corpo­
ration losses and expenses, and additional measures for dealing with
failing banks were authorized. A 1960 statute provided new methods
for determining assessments, and increased the assessment credit to
insured banks from 60 percent (under the 1950 Act) to 66% percent of
the assessment income remaining after deduction of Corporation losses
and expenses.
Participation in Federal deposit insurance. The first problem fac­
ing the Board of Directors of the Corporation at its initial meeting on
September 11, 1933, was establishment of procedures for the exami­
nation of banks applying for insurance. To join the insurance program,
banks that were not members of the Federal Reserve System had to
be certified as solvent by their respective State supervisory agencies
and be examined and approved for insurance by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation. A total of 13,201 banks, or 86 percent of all
banks in the United States, became insured when the insurance took
effect on January 1, 1934. The proportion of banks participating in

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION

Federal deposit insurance has increased each year; the 13,445 so in­
sured on December 31, 1961, comprised 97 percent of the number, and
held 98 percent of the deposits, of all incorporated banks of deposit.
At the end of 1961 there were 514 banks, of varied types, outside
Federal deposit insurance. Of this number, 185 were mutual savings
banks, 141 were incorporated commercial banks operating under the
general banking codes of various States, 81 were unincorporated banks,
52 were trust companies not regularly engaged in deposit banking, 34
were industrial banks, 13 were banks of deposit operating under vari­
ous special charters, and 8 were branches of banks chartered in foreign
countries which are included in the statistics of banks because they are
engaged in deposit banking in the United States. The unincorporated
banks, the trust companies not regularly engaged in deposit banking,
and the branches in the United States of banks chartered in foreign
countries are not eligible for Federal deposit insurance.

Banks failing during 1961. Five insured banks were placed in re­
ceivership in 1961: The Sheldon National Bank, Sheldon, Iowa; Bank
of Earlsboro, Earlsboro, Oklahoma; Bank of Ochlochnee, Ochlochnee,
Georgia; The First National Bank of Maud, Maud, Oklahoma; and
the First State Bank, Premont, Texas. These banks had approximately
8,250 depositors with total deposits of $8.8 million, and insured de­
posits estimated at $6.2 million. In each case financial irregularities in
the operation of the bank were responsible for the weakened condition
leading to the bank’s closing.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation was appointed re­
ceiver or liquidating agent in each instance. It took about ten days in
each case for the Corporation to review the bank’s books, determine
the amount due each depositor, and start payment of insured deposits.
Depositors in four of the banks had been paid approximately $4.3
million by December 31, 1961, and payment of the remaining $0.9
million of insured deposits in these four cases awaited only presenta­
tion of proof of claims. In the case of the First State Bank, Premont,
Texas, which closed on December 30, 1961, payments began on Jan­
uary 11, 1962, and are not reflected in end-of-year payment figures.
Uninsured deposits in the five cases totaled about $2.6 million at
the end of 1961. Some of these deposits were paid by offset of debts of
individual depositors to the bank. Other deposits, particularly those
of governmental units, have a preferred status or are secured by col­
lateral. Depositors whose deposits are not offset, preferred or secured,

but are in excess of the insurance limit, share with the Corporation as
claimant for insured deposits paid by it in the proceeds of the liquid­
ation, receiving dividends as declared by the receiver.
Banks failing, 1934-1961. During its 28 years of operation the
Corporation has made disbursements to protect depositors in 445
failing banks. These banks had about 1,460,000 depositors and total
deposits of $611 million.

It is estimated that most of these depositors will be paid in full.
8 Includes $178 thousand unclaimed insured deposits in terminated cases (see note 3).
9 Includes all amounts paid by offset.
10 Includes all secured and preferred claims paid from asset liquidation; excludes secured and pre­
ferred claims paid by Corporation.
11 Includes unclaimed deposits paid to authorized public custodians.

The Corporation has used two methods in meeting its insurance
liability. In the deposit payoff method, which has been employed in 263

cases, the Corporation sends its claim agents to the affected banks, and
they make payments of insured deposits directly to depositors. In these
cases the protection has been limited to $2,500 per depositor in one
bank closed before July 1, 1934; to $5,000 per depositor in 244 banks
closed between July 1, 1934, and September 21, 1950; and to $10,000
per depositor in 18 banks closed after the latter date. In the 182 cases
where the assumption method has been used, the deposits of the dis­
tressed banks have been assumed by other insured banks and made
immediately available in full to depositors. These assumption trans­
actions were made possible by Corporation loans to or purchases of
assets from the failing banks.

the 445 insured banks closed since January 1, 1934, had not been paid
by the end of 1961, and an even smaller percentage of the depositors
had not had their deposits made available in full. The methods and ex­
tent of depositor protection in the 445 banks requiring Corporation dis­
bursements are shown in Table 1.
Corporation disbursements and losses. An analysis of the dis­
bursements, recoveries, and losses of the Corporation in its insurance
operations is presented in Table 2.
Since beginning operations the Corporation has disbursed $359.6 mil­
lion in fulfilling its insurance responsibilities. Nearly all of this amount,
or $357.7 million, represented payment of claims or expenditures to
facilitate assumption of deposit accounts; $1.8 million was used to pur­
chase assets from receivers and liquidators to expedite termination of
particular cases, and non-recoverable expenses unallocated but directly
related to insurance operations amounted to $0.1 million.
The Corporation estimates that recoveries on disbursements, already
made or expected, will total $328.3 million, resulting in an indicated
loss of $31.2 million on insurance transactions. In connection with these
transactions, the Corporation has also received $9.0 million of interest
and allowable return on the funds advanced to 158 of the closed insured
banks, thus reducing the Corporation’s potential loss of funds to about
$22.2 million.

S u p e r v is o r y A

c t iv it ie s

While the concept of free enterprise is basic to the American econo­
mic system, it has long been recognized that certain governmental con­
trols are necessary in the public interest. For more than a century
banking has been one of the most regulated of industries. Prevention of
injury to the public is the basis for the regulation of banks.
The public policy of attempting to maintain competition in our
economy is based upon the belief that this will keep the channels of
trade as free as possible, while promoting efficiency and progress. It is
inevitable that in a market in which many buyers and sellers are com­
peting some will be successful and others will suffer losses. In most in­
dustries occasional business failures are expected, and are not regarded
as too high a price to be paid for the benefits of competition. However,
the suspension of a bank, because of its effects upon the circulating
medium of the community, is a more serious occurrence than is the fail­
ure of another business of comparable size. In addition, banks are
subject to temptation to operate on low capital margins, which is con­
ducive to excessive competition and fluctuations which are inconsist­



8

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION

ent with a reasonable rate of growth in the money supply. For these
reasons, banking is subject to special regulations designed to promote
sound banking and at the same time retain the benefits resulting from
effective competition.
Admission to insured status. Banks of deposit become insured
in different ways but, whatever the method, the following factors must
be taken into account by the appropriate authority: (1) the financial
history and condition of the bank, (2) the adequacy of its capital
structure, (3) its future earnings prospects, (4) the general character of
its management, (5) the convenience and needs of the community to be
served by the bank, and (6) the consistency of its corporate powers with
the purposes of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.
Upon certification by the appropriate authority that these factors
have been considered, when national banks are opened for business and
when State banks are admitted to the Federal Reserve System they
become insured without further action by the Corporation. Other banks
apply directly to the Corporation if they desire deposit insurance.
During 1961 the Corporation acted upon 115 applications for admission
to deposit insurance, and approved all but two of that total. The ap­
preciable decline from the 172 similar applications acted upon in 1960
was in the category of operating non-insured banks, a steadily dimin­
ishing group. New banks approved for insurance in 1961 totaled 81, only
slightly fewer than the 87 approved during 1960.
The 32 operating banks approved for Federal deposit insurance were
scattered among 16 States: of these, 11 were in Iowa, 5 in Maine, and
no more than two in any other State. Of the new banks admitted to
insurance, 16 were in Illinois and 11 in California, with the remaining
54 scattered among 25 States.
Applications for branches. The continued growth in branch bank­
ing was reflected in the applications for approval of branches acted upon
by the Corporation in 1961. Corporation approval is required for the
establishment of branches of insured banks not members of the Federal
Reserve System. The Corporation approved all but two of the 368 such
applications for branches acted upon in 1961. Two-thirds of those ap­
proved, or 245, were for new branches, practically the same number as
in 1960. Of the new branches approved, 22 were in North Carolina, 14
each in California, New York, South Carolina, and Virginia, 13 in
Massachusetts, and 12 each in Indiana and Maryland.
The applications acted upon by the Corporation in 1961, including
those for admission to insurance and establishment of branches, are
classified in Table 3. It may be noted that only five out of a total of 870
applications acted upon were disapproved. The relatively small number




9

of disapprovals reflects in part the withdrawal or improvement of some
proposals after preliminary discussion, prior to formal submission of the
applications.

Regulation of bank mergers. Section 18(c) of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act as amended in May 1960, provides that no insured bank
may, without prior written consent of one of the Federal banking
authorities, engage in a merger, consolidation, acquisition of assets, or
deposit assumption transaction. In passing upon an application for
a bank to engage in such a transaction the Federal bank supervisory
authority is required to consider the effect of the transaction on compe­
tition, including any tendency toward monopoly, in addition to the six
banking factors previously enumerated. The consent of the Corporation
is required for any transaction in which the acquiring, assuming, or re­
sulting bank is an insured bank not a member of the Federal Reserve
System and is not located in the District of Columbia, and in any
transaction in which one of the participants is a noninsured institution.
The Corporation endeavors to use its supervisory powers to promote




10

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION

the public interest through development of sound, competitive banks
which are able to meet the needs of the communities in which they
operate.
Prior to this amendment in M ay 1960, the consent of the Corporation
was required in any assumption case involving a noninsured bank,
and in other absorption cases where the resulting bank was an insured
bank not a member of the Federal Reserve System (except a bank in
the District of Columbia) and a reduction occurred in the capital stock
or surplus of the bank. An examination of the absorption transactions
approved by the Corporation in the years 1955-1961 indicates that,
in a large proportion of the cases, the absorbing bank was attempt­
ing to expand branch operations into areas where it was felt a need
existed. Reasons most frequently given by the absorbed banks for
participating in these transactions included the existence of a manage­
ment problem, unfavorable earnings, and difficulty in meeting competi­
tion. Advantages of the absorptions to communities affected by these
transactions include raising the legal loan limit, strengthening of bank
or branch management, and the provision of additional banking services.
During the year 1961, the Corporation considered and approved 31
applications to participate in absorption transactions where the re­
sulting bank was a State nonmember insured bank. Total resources of
the 60 banks involved in these applications were $1,813 million. Data
regarding each of these banks, with a statement of the basis for the
Corporation’s approval and the Attorney General’s summary of his
report on the competitive factors involved, are given in Table 101.
In addition, during the year 1961, the Corporation submitted a
total of 139 reports to the Comptroller of the Currency or to the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as to the effects on
competition of proposed absorptions where the resulting bank was a
national bank or a State member bank. In 18 of these cases, the Corpo­
ration reported that the effect on competition would be unfavorable.
In Table 4 information is given regarding the number, resources, and
offices of all banks involved in applications to engage in absorption
transactions approved in 1961 by the three Federal bank supervisory
agencies under section 18(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.
Bank examinations. Examinations serve the dual purpose of en­
couraging sound banking practices and providing the Corporation with
information about its risk. The individual examination seeks to de­
termine a bank’s capital position, the quality of its loans, the suit­
ability of its securities portfolio, managerial capabilities, conformity
with applicable provisions of law, and whether practices exist which
are likely to lead to financial difficulties. When an examination reveals




11

SUPERVISORY a c t i v i t i e s

an unusual insurance risk, the bank’s condition receives special atten­
tion designed to correct the difficulties before they become serious.

1 The number of resulting banks is smaller than the number of transactions, which totaled 131,
because a few banks engaged in more than one transaction.
2 In cases where an absorbing bank engaged in more than one transaction, the resources included
are those of the bank before the latest transaction, and the number of offices before the first and after
the last transaction.
3 In one case only portions of an operating member bank’s resources and offices were absorbed
by a new bank, with the operating member bank continuing to operate its other offices. Absorbed re­
sources of $514,317 thousand and 65 offices are included here, but no bank is shown as absorbed (see
Case 1, Table 101).

Cooperation among bank supervisory agencies minimizes the burden
of examination upon any one of them as well as upon the banks them­
selves. The Corporation regularly examines insured State banks other
than District of Columbia banks and members of the Federal Reserve
System, and reviews reports of examination of other insured banks
made by the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve
banks. Examinations of insured nonmember banks are sometimes made



12

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION

jointly or concurrently with those conducted by the appropriate State
supervisory authority. The Corporation also investigates proposals for
new banks and branches and proposals for bank absorptions where
the resulting bank would be a nonmember insured bank. The number
and classification of the examinations and investigations conducted by
the Corporation during 1961 are given in Table 5.

Citations for unsafe and unsound banking practices and viola­
tions of law. When examination of a bank reveals continuation of
unsafe or unsound banking practices or violation of law or regulations,
the Corporation has the authority and duty to institute proceedings for
termination of the bank’s insured status. These proceedings, pre­
scribed under Section 8(a) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, are
started only after a diligent effort has been made to obtain satis­
factory corrective action by the bank itself.
Two proceedings under Section 8 (a ), one begun in 1959 and the
other in 1960, were discontinued during 1961 when the cited banks
satisfied the Corporation that they were well along toward rehabilita­
tion. One new proceeding was instituted in 1961. Upon the effectuation
of certain corrections and improvements, and a manifestation of the
management’s determination to complete the bank’s rehabilitation, the
Corporation extended the period for correction, and termination pro­
ceedings were pending at the year-end.



13

SUPERVISORY ACTIVITIES

During the entire period of Federal deposit insurance, proceedings
for termination of insurance have been instituted against 183 banks.
In more than a third of the cases the necessary corrections were made;
and in more than one-half of the cases the banks were absorbed or
succeeded by other banks or suspended operations prior to Corpora­
tion action setting a date for termination of insurance. In 12 cases
the Corporation set this date; in nine of these cases the banks suspended
prior to or on the date set for termination of insurance; in one case,
the bank closed shortly after termination; and in two cases, the banks
continued in operation. Details concerning the outcome of termination
proceedings are given in Table 6.

1 No action to terminate the insured status of any bank was taken before 1936. In 5 cases where
initial action was replaced by action based upon additional charges, only the latter action is included.
2 One of these suspended 4 months after its insured status was terminated.

R eports fro m banks. Each year since 1934 the Corporation has
obtained reports from insured banks in regard to their assets, liabilities,
and income. Data concerning the assets and liabilities of insured banks
have been received and published semiannually, as of June and Decem­
ber; income data have related to calendar years. Since 1935 the
Corporation has collected information regarding assets and liabilities
of noninsured banks. Following agreement among the Federal bank
supervisory agencies in 1947, the Corporation was assigned responsibility
for preparing and issuing data covering the assets and liabilities of
all banks operating in the United States.
From 1934 to December 31, 1960, each insured bank filed, for the
six months ended June 30 and December 31 of each year, certified
statements of deposit insurance assessments. Under the new method
for computing assessments which took effect in 1961, assessments are
based on the average of deposits shown in two reports of condition in
each semiannual assessment period. Accordingly, in 1961, all insured



14

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION

banks submitted, for the first time, four reports of condition: for
April 12, June 30, September 27, and December 30. The change in
method of reporting has simplified the task of both the banks and
the Corporation in determining the correct amount of assessments.
Furthermore, the additional reports of condition provide the basis
for improved statistical series.
Statistics on the income of insured banks, and on the assets and
liabilities of both insured and noninsured banks, are presented in
Parts Three and Four of this report. Tabulations of reports of assets
and liabilities of banks classified by State are published semiannually
by the Corporation in separate reports. Starting in 1961, each of
these semiannual reports presents for two dates detailed asset and
liability data for insured banks grouped by State and class of bank.

Federal legislation. No legislation directly affecting Federal de­
posit insurance or insured banks was enacted by the Congress during
1961.
Rules and regulations of the Corporation. Parts 327 and 329 of
the Corporation's rules and regulations were amended in December
of 1961. The amendment of Section 329.6 of the rules and regulations,
which became effective January 1, 1962, prescribes the maximum
permissible rates of interest which insured banks not members of the
Federal Reserve System, other than mutual savings banks, may pay
on time and savings deposits for a period commencing on or after
that date but not for any period prior thereto. This amendment pro­
vides that after January 1, 1962, such banks may pay interest at a
rate not in excess of 4 percent per annum on savings deposits that
have remained on deposit for not less than twelve months, and on time
deposits which have a maturity date of twelve months or more after
the date of deposit or are payable upon written notice of twelve months
or more. After January 1, 1962, interest at a rate not to exceed 4 percent
may also be paid on a postal savings deposit which constitutes a time
deposit and has remained on deposit for not less than twelve months.
After the effective date of the amendment, interest may be paid
at a rate not to exceed 3% percent per annum on savings deposits
remaining on deposit for less than twelve months and on time deposits
which have a maturity date of between six and twelve months or are
payable upon written notice of from six to twelve months. Interest at
3% percent may also be paid on a postal savings deposit which con­
stitutes a time deposit and has remained on deposit for less than
twelve months.



LEGAL DEVELOPMENTS

The amendment continues the maximum rate of 2% percent on
time deposits (except postal savings deposits which constitute time
deposits) which have a maturity date of from 90 days to six months
or are payable upon written notice of from 90 days to six months. It
also continues the maximum rate of 1 percent on time deposits (except
postal savings deposits which constitute time deposits) which have a
maturity date of less than 90 days after the date of deposit or are
payable on written notice of less than 90 days.
The other amendment amends Section 329.1 (e) and Section 327.2
(b) (4) of the Corporation’s rules and regulations which define the
term “ savings deposit” for purposes of Parts 329 and 327. The purposes
of the amendment to Part 329 are (1) to prevent certain practices
that facilitate the use of a savings deposit as a regular means for
drawing checks on the depository bank, and (2) to add certain liberal­
izing provisions with respect to withdrawals from savings deposits; and
the purpose of the amendment to Part 327 is to conform the definition
of the term “ savings deposit” therein to the definition of a savings
deposit under Part 329.
The amended Parts of the Rules and Regulations, published in the
Federal Register December 8, 1961 (26 F. R. 11798) and December 15,
1961 (26 F. R. 12031-12032), are set forth in Part Two of this report.

Structure and employees. Management of the Corporation is
vested in a bipartisan Board of Directors consisting of three members
appointed by the President of the United States. Two directors are
appointed for terms of six years; the Comptroller of the Currency
serves ex officio as the third director. With the change in the Federal
administration, Mr. Jesse P. Wolcott resigned as Chairman, and the
Board of Directors elected Mr. Erie Cocke, Sr., as Chairman, effective
at noon on January 20, 1961, with Mr. Wolcott continuing to serve as
director. Mr. Ray M. Gidney served as Comptroller of the Currency,
and director of the Corporation, until November 15, 1961, when he
was succeeded by Mr. James J. Saxon.
The main office of the Corporation is in Washington, D. C., and
district offices are maintained in 12 major cities. During 1961 con­
struction proceeded on a headquarters building for the Corporation
in downtown Washington, which is expected to be completed and
occupied in the latter part of 1962.

Corporation officials are listed on page v of this report, adjacent
to an organization chart of the Corporation. The location of each
district office and the area it serves, with the names of the respective
Supervising Examiners, are given on pages vi and vii.
The Corporation had 1,281 employees on December 31, 1961. The
net increase of 39 during the year occurred in the field offices of the
Corporation, and was due to greater examination and liquidation
activity. The figures do not include temporary field liquidation em­
ployees, who are generally hired at the site of the liquidation activity
and whose services are terminated when the local peak of activity
has passed.
The turnover rate of all employees (excluding temporary field liquida­
tion personnel) was 16 per 100 in 1961, the same as in 1960. Turnover
among the field examiner staff was 13 per 100, down slightly from 1960.
Field examiners comprise the largest group of employees in the Corpora­
tion; from an average employment of 734 in 1961, 93 left the Corpora­
tion during the year, a third of them going to banks or other financial
institutions or supervisory agencies. A distribution of the Corporation’s
employees at the end of 1961, according to Division and location, is
given in Table 7.

Employee benefits and programs. Employees of the Corporation
receive the fringe benefits generally available to Federal employees,
including retirement annuities, group life insurance, vacation and sick
leave, hospitalization and medical payments insurance, compensation
for on-the-job injuries, and unemployment benefits. At the end of 1961
over 99 percent of the employees were included in the Civil Service
Retirement System, nearly 95 percent (of those eligible) had taken
out group life insurance, and 92 percent participated in the Federal
Employees Health Benefits program.




ADMINISTRATION OF THE CORPORATION

The educational program for examiners, begun in 1946, continued
to enlist extensive participation. At the end of 1961, 477 examiners
were currently enrolled in correspondence courses conducted by the
American Institute of Banking, 64 were enrolled in banking schools at
eight leading universities, and one was a resident student at a univer­
sity. Nearly 3,000 courses have been completed by Corporation ex­
aminers, present and past, since the program was established. The
educational program was subsequently extended to include auditors,
who have completed about 50 courses.
Examiners and assistant examiners participate in the Inter-Agency
Bank Examination School conducted in Washington jointly by the
Federal bank supervisory agencies. Since its establishment in 1952, 358
Corporation examiners have attended the School.

Assets and liabilities. Assets of the Corporation totaled $2,482
million on December 31, 1961. United States Government obligations,
valued at amortized cost, with accrued interest, were nearly $2,471
million. Other assets amounted to $11 million. One-third of this amount
consisted of the estimated net value of assets acquired in insurance
transactions, and another third was represented by the building site,
planning, and construction costs of the Corporation’s headquarters
building. Cash balances were approximately $3 million. This relatively
small amount is considered adequate because the Government securities
held by the Corporation include a reasonable portion of special issues
convertible into cash on demand.
Liabilities of the Corporation totaled $128 million on December 31,
1961, and consisted principally of net assessment income credits due
insured banks which are available for application to subsequent assess­
ments.
The excess of the Corporation’s assets over its liabilities represents
the accumulated income (surplus) of the Corporation since its inception,
and constitutes the deposit insurance fund. This fund, which comprises
the Corporation’s financial resources for the protection of depositors,
amounted to $2,354 million on December 31, 1961. In addition, the
Corporation is authorized to borrow from the United States Treasury,
and the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized and directed to loan
to the Corporation on such terms as may be fixed by the Corporation
and the Secretary, not to exceed $3 billion outstanding at any one time,
when in the judgment of the Board of Directors of the Corporation such
funds are required for insurance purposes. This borrowing power has
never been used.

to the Acts of August 5, 1947 (61 Stat. 773), and June 29, 1948 (62 Stat. 1092).
2 The deposit insurance fund, consisting of the cumulative net income (surplus) of the Corporation
from its inception to December 31, 1961, is available for future deposit insurance losses and related
expense. In addition to this fund, the Corporation is authorized to borrow from the United States
Treasury, and the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized and directed to loan to the Corporation on
such terms as may be fixed by the Corporation and the Secretary, not to exceed three billion dollars
outstanding at any one time, when in the judgment of the Board of Directors of the Corporation such
funds are required for insurance purposes. No borrowings have been made under this authorization.
Note: These statements do not include accountability for assets and liabilities of closed insured banks
which were acquired by the Corporation in its fiduciary capacity as receiver or liquidating agent. Periodic
and final accountability reports are furnished to the Courts, supervisory authorities, and others, as
required.

Income in 1961. Net income of the Corporation during 1961 was
$132 million. Income from assessments amounted to $73 million, and
was slightly exceeded, for the first time, by income from United States
Government securities of $74 million. Expenses and losses during the
year totaled $15 million. Table 9 presents a statement of the Corpora-

Income from assessments, after allowing for the Corporation’s ex­
penses and losses, is shared by the Corporation and the insured banks.
Effective in 1961, the share of the insured banks in this net assessment
income was increased from 60 percent to 66% percent. Accordingly,
$115 million of the $189 million of assessments becoming due in 1961
was credited to insured banks to be applied against future assessments.
This credit had the effect of reducing assessments from the statutory
annual rate of one-twelfth of 1 percent of assessable deposits to a rate of
one-thirty-first of 1 percent. The determination and distribution of net
assessment income in 1961 is shown in Table 10.
Income and the deposit insurance fund, 1934-1961. The cumu­
lative income of the Corporation since its establishment reached $2,641
million at the end of 1961. Over that period assessments provided 69




20

percent, and investment and other income 31 percent, of the total.
Expenses and losses from 1934 to 1961 have amounted to $287 million.
The resulting accumulated net income, which constitutes the deposit
insurance fund, was $2,354 million at the end of 1961. The amounts
and disposition of the Corporation’s income for each year from 1933
to 1961, and cumulatively, are presented in Table 11.

The relationship of the deposit insurance fund to deposits in insured
banks for each year from 1934 to 1961 is shown in Table 12. At the
end of 1961 the fund amounted to 0.84 percent of total deposits in
insured banks.
Audit. The Audit Division of the Corporation makes a continuous
audit of its financial operations. Audits by outside firms or agencies
have been made each year from the beginning, first by private firms,
and since 1945 by the General Accounting Office.
The short form report on audit for the year ended June 30, 1961,
furnished by the Comptroller General, is reproduced in Table 13. As
indicated there, and in his more extensive report to the Congress, the
Comptroller General found the financial accounts to be as represented
and in general conformity with accepted accounting principles.

1 For 1950-1961, figures are net after deducting the portion of net assessment income credited to
insured banks pursuant to provisons of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act of 1950 and its amendment
by Public Law 86-671, approved July 14, 1960. Assessment credits to insured banks for these years
amounted to $1,047.3 million, equal to 56.779% of gross assessments.
2 Net loss of funds after allowing for $8,999 thousand (included in income from investments and other
sources in this table) collected as interest and allowable return on funds advanced to 158 of the 445
closed insured banks was $22,232 thousand.
8
Paid in 1950 and 1951, but allocated among years to which it applies. Initial capital of $289 million
was retired by payments to the United States Treasury in 1947 and 1948.
4 The amounts shown herein give effect to adjustments to the deposit insurance fund in the years
to which they are applicable, whereas the amounts of the Fund shown in Table 12 represent the Fund
as reported on the dates specified. Hence the deposit insurance fund reported in Table 12 cannot be
computed by annual addition of income reported herein, except for the Fund as of December 31, 1961.
5 Assessments collected from members of the temporary insurance funds which became insured under
the permanent plan were credited to their accounts at the termination of the temporary funds and
were applied toward payment of subsequent assessments becoming due under the permanent insurance
fund, resulting in no income to the Corporation from assessments during the existence of the temporary
insurance funds.
6 Net after deducting the portion of expenses and losses charged to banks withdrawing from the
temporary insurance funds on June 30, 1934.
7 Deduction.

In the report to Congress, two recommendations for amendment of
the Federal Deposit Insurance Act were repeated from earlier audit
reports. The first, relating to the cost of providing retirement, disability,
and compensation benefits for Corporation employees, would require
the Corporation to pay:




22

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION

“ 1. Into the civil service retirement and disability fund the Govern­
m ent’s share of the cost of providing retirement and disability benefits for
the Corporation’s employees for the period from the creation of the Corpo­
ration through the year ended June 30, 1957.
2. Into the employees’ compensation fund the amount of benefit pay­
ments made from such fund on account of the Corporation’s employees for
all periods subsequent to the creation of the Corporation.
3. Into the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts a fair portion of the cost
of administering the civil service retirement system and the employees' com­
pensation fund for all periods subsequent to the creation of the Corporation/’

The second recommendation would require the General Accounting
Office to make its report of audit on a calendar-year rather than a
fiscal-year basis.
The Board of Directors of the Corporation has consistently sup­
ported both of these recommendations.

December 8, 1961

To
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
The General Accounting Office has made an audit of the Federal Deposit Insur­
ance Corporation, an independent Government agency, for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1961, pursuant to section 17(b) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act
(12 U.S.C. 1827).
Our audit included an examination of the Corporation’s statement of financial
condition as of June 30, 1961, and its related statement of income and expenses
for the year then ended, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
and such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances and appropriate in view of the effective­
ness of the system of internal control and the work performed by the Corporation’s
internal auditors.
The Corporation’s accumulated net income has been retained as a deposit in­
surance fund and is available for future deposit insurance losses. W e are unable
to express an opinion on the adequacy of the deposit insurance fund to meet future
losses because the amount that may be needed is dependent on future economic
conditions which cannot be accurately predicted.
In our opinion, subject to the comments in the preceding paragraph, the state­
ment of financial condition (schedule 1) and the statement of income and deposit
insurance fund (schedule 2) present fairly the financial position of the Federal
Insurance Corporation at June 30, 1961, and the results of its operations for the
year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied
on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year and with applicable Federal
laws.

1. The Corporation has acquired a building site in the District of Columbia on which it is con­
structing its own office building. Through June 30, 1961, accumulated costs totaled SI,598,175 for land
and $869,178 for the building. The Corporation estimates that the completed building, exclusive of land,
will cost about $6.5 million and will be ready for occupancy during calendar year 1962.
2. Capital stock was retired by payments to the United States Treasury in 1947 and 1948, pursuant
to the acts of August 5, 1947 (61 Stat. 773), and June 29, 1948 (62 Stat. 1092).
3. The Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1817d), as amended by the act of July 14, 1960
(74 Stat. 551), provides that, effective with the credit to be computed on the Corporation’s net assessment
income for calendar year 1961, insured banks shall be allowed, against current semiannual insurance
assessments, pro rata credits totaling 66% percent of the Corporation’s net assessment income (as
defined by the act) for the prior calendar year. Prior to enactment of the act of July 14, 1960, pro rata
credits totaling 60 percent of the Corporation’s net assessment income were allowed. In accordance with
the law, the Corporation has estimated the net assessment income credits to insured banks for the first
6 months of calendar year 1961 at the new rate of 66% percent. The net assessment income credits
for calendar year 1960 were computed at the old rate of 60 percent.

4. The deposit insurance fund of $2,286,859,265 at June 30, 1961, is available for future deposit
insurance losses and related expenses. The fund amounts to about 1.5 percent of all insured deposits,
which the Corporation estimates at $152.8 billion. The law does not specify either the amount or the
ratio of insured deposits to which the insurance fund is to be accumulated.
The Corporation from its inception to June 30, 1961, has made disbursements of about $355.8 million
in protecting depositors of 441 insured banks and in facilitating the termination of liquidations. The
Corporation’s accumulated losses amount to about $30.1 million, including estimated losses of $7.5
million on cases not terminated at the close of the year ended June 30, 1961.
The Corporation is authorized to borrow from the United States Treasury up to $3 billion out­
standing at any one time when, in the judgment of the board of directors, such funds are required for
insurance purposes. The Corporation has never used this borrowing authority.
5. These statements do not include accountability for assets and liabilities of closed insured banks
which were acquired by the Corporation in its fiduciary capacity as receiver or liquidating agent. Periodic
and final accountability reports are furnished to the Courts, supervisory authorities, and others, as
required.

Federal and State supervision. Chartering of banks by the govern­
ment of the United States began in 1781, when the Continental Congress
established the Bank of North America; and by States in the next year,
when Massachusetts and Pennsylvania also granted charters to the same
institution. Two years later New York and Massachusetts granted
charters to other banks; and in 1791, after adoption of the new Con­
stitution, the Congress of the United States chartered the Bank of the
United States. Since that time banks have operated in the United States
under charters granted by the State governments; and except for one
period of nearly two decades, just prior to 1863, banks have also been
in existence operating under charters from the Federal Government.
For nearly half of a century after banks were first incorporated in
the United States, regulation of their operations was confined for the
most part to provisions inserted in their charters, though in some cases
the banks were required to make periodic reports to the United States
Treasury or to State officials. In 1829, the State of New York introduced
two principles of bank supervision which have since been adopted
throughout the nation: regular examination of banks by an agency of
government, and insurance or guaranty of bank obligations. The prac­
tice of periodic examination of State-chartered banks was adopted by
all of the States at varying dates during the next 85 years; and by the
Federal Government when, in 1863, it began to charter national banks
throughout the nation. The insurance or guaranty of bank obligations
has also been in use continuously since it was first introduced in New
York. Within a few years, five other States provided for the insurance
of circulating bank notes, or of both notes and deposits, and four of the
six State systems of insurance continued until 1866. Guaranty of the
circulating notes of national banks by the United States Treasury was
in effect from 1863 until the retirement of all national bank notes in
1936. During the years from 1907 to 1917, eight States provided for
insurance (termed guaranty) of bank deposits, and in one of these the
system remained in existence until 1934, though the insurance had
previously become inapplicable to banks that failed subsequent to 1930.
In 1914, the last of the States provided for regular examination of
State-chartered banks. In the preceding year, the Federal Reserve Act
introduced for the first time the examination of State-chartered banks
by a Federal Government agency, with the provision: “ The Comptroller
of the Currency, with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury,
shall appoint examiners who shall examine every member bank at least

twice in each calendar year and oftener if considered necessary: Pro­
vided, however, that the Federal Reserve Board may authorize examina­
tion by the State authorities to be accepted in the case of State banks
and trust companies and may at any time direct the holding of a
special examination of State banks or trust companies that are stock­
holders in any Federal reserve bank.” This was replaced four years
later by an amendment requiring all State member banks to be subject
to examinations made by direction of the Federal Reserve Board or of
the Federal reserve banks by examiners approved by the Board.
The Banking Act of 1933, which established the Federal Deposit In­
surance Corporation, provided for initial examination of all banks not
members of the Federal Reserve System which applied for admission
to insurance; and the powers given to the Board of Directors of the
Corporation enabled it to initiate a program for regular examination
of all such nonmember insured banks. The Banking Act of 1935 made
explicit the power of the Corporation to examine insured State nonmem­
ber banks (except those in the District of Columbia), “ whenever in the
judgment of the Board of Directors an examination of the bank is
necessary;” and authorized examination of any national or District
bank with the approval of the Comptroller of the Currency, and of
any State member bank with the approval of the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System. The latter part of this provision was
amended in 1950 to authorize the Corporation to make a special exami­
nation of any national, District, or State member bank “ whenever in
the judgment of the Board of Directors such special examination is
necessary to determine the condition of any such bank for insurance
purposes.”
The Banking Act of 1933, approved June 16, 1933, contained a pro­
vision which made it unlawful, after the expiration of one year after
the date of enactment of the Act, for any person, firm, corporation, as­
sociation, business trust, or other similar organization other than a
financial institution or private banker subject to examination and
regulation under State or Federal law to engage to any extent whatever
in the business of receiving deposits subject to check, or to repayment
upon presentation of a passbook, certificate of deposit, or other evidence
of debt or upon the request of the depositor, unless such person or or­
ganization submitted to periodic examination by the Comptroller of the
Currency or by the Federal Reserve Bank of the District.
The Banking Act of 1935 amended this provision of the Banking
Act of 1933 so as to make it unlawful for any such person or organiza­
tion to engage in such business of receiving deposits unless it shall be
incorporated under and authorized to engage in such business by the
laws of the United States or of any State, Territory, or District, or




45

SUPERVISORY STATUS OF BANKS

unless it shall be permitted by any State, Territory, or District to en­
gage in such business and shall be subject by law of the State, Territory,
or District to examination and regulation, or unless it shall submit to
periodic examination by the banking authority of the State, Territory,
or District wherein the business is carried on.
This provision was further amended in 1959 to provide, with respect
to such incorporated organizations, that it shall be unlawful for them
to engage in such business of receiving deposits unless they are sub­
jected by the laws of the United States or of any State, Territory, or
District wherein located to examination and regulation.
The various State and Federal statutes also require incorporated
banks, and other banks engaged in demand deposit banking, to submit
periodic reports of condition, exhibiting in detail their resources and
liabilities, to the respective banking authorities.

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION

Number of banks classified by supervisory status. Table 14 gives
the number of banks and trust companies operating in the United States
at the close of 1961 classified according to the supervisory authority
or authorities to which they are subject, and by their participation in
Federal deposit insurance. Banks under the jurisdiction of the Comptrol­
ler of the Currency include all national banks and also all banks located
in the District of Columbia. These constitute almost one-third of the
banks and trust companies. Slightly more than one-tenth of the banks
are State banks which are members of the Federal Reserve System.
More than half of all the banks and trust companies are State-chartered
banks which participate in Federal deposit insurance but are not mem­
bers of the Federal Reserve System. At present less than 4 percent of
the banks and trust companies do not participate in Federal deposit
insurance, and are subject to examination and supervision by State
authorities only.

For banks insured by this Corporation the capital ratio of commer­
cial banks declined during 1961 from 8.1 percent to 8.0 percent, while
the ratio for mutual savings banks rose from 8.5 percent to 8.6 percent.
The decline in the capital ratio of insured commercial banks was the
first in the past decade. Table 17 shows the ratios of capital accounts
to assets on December 30, 1961, for banks of deposit classified according
to their supervisory status.

Changes in number of banks and branches. During the year 1961
the number of banks ceasing operations exceeded by 40 the number
beginning operations. About nine-tenths of the banks ceasing operations
were absorbed by other banks. Of the 138 banks absorbed, all except
12 continued to serve their communities as branches. These, together
with other branches beginning operations, greatly exceeded the number
closed, resulting in a net increase of 937 branches during the year. Table
18 gives an analysis of the changes in number of banks and branches
during 1961. As a result of these changes, the number of banking offices
increased by 3.6 percent. This was the nineteenth consecutive year
in which there has been an increase in the number of banking offices.
Changes in bank assets and liabilities. The amounts and percent­
ages of principal asset and liability items at the close of each of the
years 1955-1961 for all banks in the United States are given in Table
19. Yearly percentage changes in these items are shown in Table 20.
Total assets increased by 7.8 percent in 1961, compared with increases
of 5.1 percent in the previous year, and 2.3 percent in 1959. The per­
centage increase in 1961 was the largest annual increase since 1945. On
December 30, 1961, total assets were approximately one-third greater
than they had been at the close of 1955, and more than 80 percent
greater than at the end of 1945.
Bank holdings of cash and United States Government obligations
increased substantially during 1961. Other securities increased by 11.4
percent in 1961, and at the end of the year constituted 9.2 percent of
assets compared with 8.6 percent in 1955. Real estate loans were 37.8




49

CHANGES IN OFFICES, ASSETS, AND LIABILITIES

percent of total loans at the close of 1961, almost exactly the same per­
centage as in 1955. Commercial and industrial loans were 28.9 percent
of total loans in 1961, down from 32.8 percent in 1955.

2 Includes 4 banks opened prior to December 31, 1960, but not previously reported.
3 Includes facilities established in or near military or other Federal Government installations at
request of the Treasury or Commanding Officer of the installation.
4 Includes 13 branches opened prior to December 31, 1960, but not previously reported.
Detailed data (including changes referred to in Note 1): Table 102, pp. 86-87.

Deposits of all banks increased by 7.9 percent in 1961, the largest
annual increase since 1945. In 1961, as has been the case in each year
since 1955, time and savings deposits of individuals, partnerships, and
corporations increased more rapidly than did their demand deposits.
The percentage increase in their time and savings deposits was higher
than in any other year since 1945, and in their demand deposits higher
than in any such year except 1946 and 1950.
Capital accounts increased by 6.9 percent in 1961. This rate of growth
was higher than in most of the years since 1945, but was exceeded in
1946, 1954, and 1960.

Income in 1961. Total income of commercial and mutual savings
banks insured by the Corporation was 4.5 percent greater in 1961 than
in the preceding year. Slightly more than three-fifths of their income
was derived from loans. Insured commercial banks received approxi­
mately seven-eighths of the total income of insured banks in 1961.
However, the income of insured mutual savings banks increased slightly
more rapidly during the year than did that of insured commercial banks.
Income of insured commercial banks. The aggregate revenue for
commercial banks increased 3 percent over 1960. A 7 percent growth in
current operating expenses and a small increase in income taxes led to
a slight reduction in net income after taxes, notwithstanding smaller net
losses and charge-offs on securities and loans.

Principal items of sources and disposition of income for the years
1955-1961 are shown in Table 21. For the same years percentage dis­
tributions of total income are given in Table 22. Loans, which at the
close of 1961 constituted 45 percent of the assets, are the major source
of income of insured commercial banks. Income from loans was 59.5
percent of total income in 1961, compared with 55.9 percent in 1955.
Obligations of the United States Government amounted to 24 percent
of the assets, and were the second largest source of income. They pro­
vided 16.2 percent of total income in 1961, down from 20.2 percent in
1955. Other securities, which amounted to one-twelfth of the assets, con­
tributed 5.3 percent of the income. Service charges on deposit accounts
represented about one-twentieth of total income in 1961, approximately
the same proportion as in each of the preceding dozen years.

The largest component of expenses for insured commercial banks is
salaries and wages. In 1961 expenditures for salaries and wages absorbed
almost one-fourth of total income, approximately the same as in recent
years but well below the 29.6 percent in 1951. The banks paid out about
18 percent of their income in interest on deposits, twice the percentage
paid 10 years earlier. Dividends to stockholders were 7.6 percent of
total income, one of the lowest percentages ever distributed by insured
commercial banks. The proportion of total income added to capital ac­
counts varies considerably from year to year, being 9.4 percent in
1961, slightly below the average of the preceding ten years.

Selected operating ratios of insured commercial banks are given in
Table 23. Average rates of income on loans and on United States Gov­
ernment obligations declined in 1961, while the rate earned on other
securities rose. The increasing application of service charges on demand
deposit accounts is evident from the rising ratio of service charges to
demand deposits. The ratio has not declined in any year since 1945,
and in 1961 was more than four times as great as in 1945. The average
interest paid on savings deposits was about three times as high in 1961
as in 1945. Current operating expenses continued to rise relative to cur­
rent operating earnings. In 1961 income taxes again amounted to ap­
proximately two-fifths of profits before income taxes. Net current op­
erating earnings were 1.43 percent of average assets in 1961, slightly
below the 1.54 percent earned in 1960, but more than twice as high as
the rate earned in 1945. The percentage of net profits after taxes to
capital accounts was 9.37 in 1961 compared with 10.03 in the preceding
year, while the ratio of dividends to capital accounts rose from 4.16
percent to 4.20 percent.
Three-fifths of the insured commercial banks had deposits of less
than $5 million on December 30, 1961. However, these banks had only
10 percent of the employees, while about one-third the total was em­
ployed by banks with deposits of $500 million or more. As is shown
in Table 24, banks in the largest size category, constituting one-half of
1 percent of the total number, had approximately two-fifths of the
assets, the net current operating earnings, and the net profits after taxes.

Revision of Report of Income and Dividends. The form used by
insured commercial banks in reporting income data was revised in 1961.
Separate data were secured for the first time on (1) fringe benefits
paid to bank officers and employees, (2) occupancy expense of bank
premises, and (3) furniture and equipment expense, including costs
related to the use of automatic data processing systems, an increasingly
significant expense item.
The cost of various benefits to bank officers and employees in addi­
tion to salaries and wages, including social security and unemployment
taxes, hospitalization and life insurance premiums, pension contribu­
tions, cost of medical services, and similar items paid by the bank
totaled $377 million in 1961. Such benefits added an average 13 percent
to the wages and salaries of officers and employees in 1961.

The revised report form provides a schedule for giving details of the
occupancy expenses and any rental income from bank premises. In the
past these expense data were combined in the items “ Recurring deprecia­
tion on banking house, furniture and fixtures” and “ Other current op­
erating expenses” ; while rental income was included in “ Other current
operating earnings.” Reported separately for the first time in 1961, oc­
cupancy expense of insured commercial banks totaled $648 million.
About one-fifth of this expense was offset by rental and other income
from banking premises, which amounted to $137 million.
Furniture and equipment expenses totaled $225 million in 1961.
These expenses were previously included with “ Recurring depreciation
on banking house, furniture and fixtures” and “ Other current operating
expenses.”
In connection with securing separate data on occupancy expense,
officers and employees were classified into two groups: those engaged
in banking functions, and those concerned with building operations and
similar services. Out of total employment of 603,000 at the end of 1961,
about 30,000, or 5 percent, were engaged in building operations.
One further revision in the 1961 schedule deserves mention. Previously,
charge-offs and realized losses on securities were reported as a com­
bined total. The new form divides the previous item into losses on
securities sold and other charge-offs on securities. In 1961 they totaled,
respectively, $44 million and $21 million.
Detailed data showing the amounts of the revised classification of
items are included in the tables of income in Part Four.
Income of insured mutual savings banks. The income of insured
mutual savings banks was $1,709 million in 1961, 6 percent greater than
in 1960. Seven-tenths of the income of these banks was derived from
loans, 98 percent of which were secured by real estate. Securities were
the source of one-fifth of the income, and for the fourth consecutive year
more income was received from other securities than from United States
Government obligations. Income from United States Government obliga­
tions constituted only one-half as large a part of total income in 1961
as in 1955.
Tables 25 and 26 show for insured mutual savings banks in the years
1955-1961 the principal sources of income and its disposition in amounts
as well as in percentages, During this period total income increased in
each year, and in 1961 was slightly more than twice as much as in 1955.
In 1961 the insured mutual savings banks, as in other recent years,
distributed approximately two-thirds of their total income as dividends
and interest on deposits, and added about one-tenth of their income tc

surplus accounts. This raised the ratio of surplus accounts to assets to
8.6 percent, the highest since 1955, but well below the 1951 ratio of
9.8 percent.

Tabulations for all banks are prepared in accordance with an agree­
ment among the Federal bank supervisory agencies. Provision of
deposit facilities for the general public is the chief criterion for dis­

Summary report by Attorney General, December 21, 1960
First Western Bank and Trust Company, San Francisco, California, proposes to
merge into California Bank, Los Angeles, California, under the charter of the
latter and with the title of United California Bank. A majority of the outstanding
stock of both banks is held by Firstamerica Corporation, a registered bank hold­
ing company. Firstamerica’s stock interest in California Bank was acquired,
effective April 1,1959.
Prior to the merger, a new bank, headquartered in Los Angeles, will be
organized which will acquire, at the time of merger, the name First Western
Bank and Trust Company. At the consummation of the merger there will be
transferred to this New Bank all right, title and interest in 65 banking offices
operated by the present First Western and all rights held by the present First
Western under certain applications to establish ten additional offices. New Bank’s
assets will be about $500,000,000. After a period of two years, Firstamerica is
to endeavor to dispose of its interest in New Bank so that it will then be an
independent competitor in banking in California. If Firstamerica should be
unsuccessful in its efforts to divest itself of the stock or assets of New Bank
within six years after approval of the merger by the appropriate regulatory
agencies and Firstamerica’s acquisition of the stock of New Bank, it will then
distribute the stock of New Bank to Firstamerica’s stockholders.
All 70 of the banking offices of California Bank are located in what may be
described as the metropolitan Los Angeles area. Thirty-one of Firstamerica’s
offices are located in the same area, the balance being located in other areas
within the State of California. Thus, the principal area of competition between the
two banks, prior to the acquisition of California Bank by Firstamerica, was
in the metropolitan Los Angeles area. This serious anticompetitive effect will
be removed by the transfer of First Western’s 31 banking offices in the metro­
politan Los Angeles area to New Bank which is to be created and later separated
from Firstamerica. And since there will remain a number of large banks in the
metropolitan Los Angeles area, including the first and second largest banks
in California, it is not believed that United California Bank will have a sub­
stantial competitive advantage (in addition to the advantages now held by
California Bank) over small competitors in this area.
Bank of America, the nation’s largest bank, and by far the largest bank in
California, operates throughout the State. It has more than 600 offices in 380
communities in every one of the State’s 58 counties. The only other so-called
statewide bank is the present and much smaller First Western.
Thus, the transfer by Firstamerica of 65 offices located in various areas of
California, to New Bank and the transfer of the remaining offices of First

Basis for Corporation approval, January 12, 1961
This proposal, which establishes the largest State nonmember insured bank
in the United States, is the means of effecting a court-approved compromise
between the Department of Justice, on the one hand, and Firstamerica Corpora­
tion (now Western Bancorporation), a registered bank holding company, on the
other. In August 1958, Firstamerica Corporation filed an application with the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System for prior approval of the
acquisition by Firstamerica of 80 percent or more of the voting shares of
California Bank, Los Angeles. At that time Firstamerica owned a majority interest
in First Western Bank and Trust Company, San Francisco. Firstamerica contem­
plated, upon the approval by the Board of Governors, merging California Bank
and First Western Bank and Trust Company to create a Statewide banking
institution. Following approval of the acquisition by the Board of Governors,
on January 14, 1959, Firstamerica acquired approximately 97 percent of the
stock of California Bank. On March 30, 1959, the United States filed a complaint
in the United States District Court alleging, inter alia, that the acquisition of
the California Bank and the proposed merger of California Bank and First
Western were in violation of Section 7 of the Clayton Act and Section 1 of the
Sherman Act.
As a result of discussions arising out of said proceeding, the Department of
Justice agreed it would dismiss the litigation on the condition that, upon the
consummation of said proposed merger, the Firstamerica would establish First
Western Bank and Trust Company (a newly organized bank) to acquire the
assets and carry on the business of 65 offices presently operated by then existing
First Western Bank and Trust Company (old bank). The capital of the new
bank was provided in large part by Firstamerica, with the agreement that the
stock therein would be disposed of within a period of six years. The pending
proposal, so far as it pertains to the Merger Act, involves the acquisition by
new First Western of 65 offices of old First Western, and the assets and liabilities
associated with such branches.
At the present time the California Bank operates all of its 70 offices in the
greater Los Angeles area. By the proposed merger of First Western (old bank)
into California Bank, the latter will acquire a State-wide system of 113 branches,
and then dispose of these branches to the new bank. This will leave California Bank
(to be known as United California Bank) with a total of 118 offices, its present
70 in greater Los Angeles, 6 in Southern California communities, 19 in the San
Francisco Bay area, 13 in the San Juan area, and 10 in Northern California.
Thus, United California Bank will become a State-wide branch system, and the
new First Western will also become a State-wide branch system, although it

will have 48 fewer offices than old First Western. These two systems will then
be in a favorable position to compete with Bank of America, which now
operates more than 600 branches, and which now dominates the banking business
in California, with approximately 44 percent of total deposits and 47 percent
of loans in the entire State. The transactions will have the effect of increasing
competition throughout the State of California, and will provide better banking
services therein. Furthermore, the objections of the Department of Justice to
the original transaction have been cured, and the subject proposal has the approval
of the United States District Court in which the antitrust proceedings are pending,
and the approval of the Department of Justice.
The public interest will be better served by these two State-wide systems,
which will be in a position to effectively compete with existing branch banking
systems in the State.

No. 2— The Central Jersey Bank and Trust Company, Freehold,
New Jersey
to merge with
Allenhurst National Bank and Trust Company, Allenhurst

37,983

24,306

8

Summary report by Attorney General, January 5, 1961
The Central Jersey Bank and Trust Company has assets of $37,983,000, deposits
of $34,687,000 and net current operating income in 1959 of $237,000. The Allenhurst National Bank and Trust Company has assets of $24,306,000, deposits of
$21,944,000 and net current operating income for 1959 of $333,000.
Both banks are engaged in similar types of commercial banking. At least two
of the Applicant bank’s four offices are located near enough to the merging
bank’s four offices to be in substantial competition with them. The proposed
merger would therefore eliminate this competition which has already been
seriously compromised by two common directors.
The merger will also result in the creation of the largest bank in Monmouth
County, New Jersey. And while the combined banks will have a number of
competitors, its competitive advantages over its smaller rivals may lead them
to seek to combine in order to be able to effectively compete.
Basis for Corporation approval, January 26, 1961
The service area of the two banks involved in this proposal includes all of
Monmouth County which is undergoing rapid expansion, both industrially and in
residential development. Consummation of the transaction will bring to M on­
mouth County improved and enlarged lending facilities, and the resulting bank
will be in a position to better serve the expanding economy. Furthermore, the
merger should result in more efficient operating services and will bring a
strengthening of management to the merged institution. The resulting bank will
hold only 17.7 percent of the total resources and 15.3 percent of the loans held

by commercial banks in Monmouth County and will be subject to effective
competition from 16 other banks in the County, and particularly from the
banks located in Asbury Park, Freehold, Long Branch and Red Bank. All offices
of the bank will be subject to strong competition, not only from banks, but also
from 15 savings and loan associations, with accounts that aggregate $97.7 million
or 24.4 percent of the combined deposit and share account balances in financial
institutions in Monmouth County, and insurance companies that presently are
taking care of approximately 15 percent of the mortgage loan needs of the
County.

No. 3— The Cass County State Bank, Cassopolis, Michigan
(change of title to First Commercial Savings Bank)
to consolidate with
First Commercial Savings Bank, Constantine

3,541

8,709

4

Summary report by Attorney General, January 12, 1961
The two banks seeking to consolidate do business within a claimed service area
approximating some 55 square miles in the southwesternmost part of Michigan
and the northernmost part of Indiana. There are no less than thirty-six other
banks, several with branches, doing business in this alleged area. If this area
should be accepted as the appropriate service area, after consolidation the
resulting bank would control but 2.4% of the total bank loans in the area.
However, a realistic approach to the service area affected by the consolidation
indicates that these relatively small banks are, at least to a degree, in competition
with each other, which competition would, of course, be eliminated by the combina­
tion. Moreover, the combination would leave a small bank with deposits of
$2,161,000 to compete in the town of Cassopolis, Michigan, with a combined bank
of over $11 million in deposits, which might affect its ability to remain an effective
competitor.
Basis for Corporation approval, February 9, 1961
The main offices of the banks involved in this proposal are twenty-three miles
apart and there is nine miles between the closest offices of these banks. There
appears to be only a negligible amount of competition (limited to Porter Town­
ship) between the two banks that will be eliminated through this proposal.
The character of the area is changing from rural to suburban with attendant
industrial and residential development, indicating a need for a larger bank
to more adequately serve this expanding economy. The expanded resources and
increased lending facilities of the consolidated bank will contribute to the
further development of the area, which cannot properly be limited to the town
of Cassopolis. The consolidation will enable the applicant to better compete
with the larger banks in Niles throughout the service area, and it will enable
the credit needs of Cassopolis to be better served. The merger will expose the

No. 4— Ida County State Bank, Ida Grove, Iowa
to m erge with

Summary report by Attorney General, December 29, 1960
The Ida County State Bank of Ida Grove, Iowa (Ida Bank) and the Arthur
Trust and Savings Bank of Arthur, Iowa (Arthur Bank) propose to merge. Ida
Bank which presently has no branches intends to operate the merged bank as a
branch office in Arthur, Iowa.
The proposed merger will eliminate all competition between Ida Bank and
the healthy and prosperous Arthur Bank. Ida Bank is presently the third and
Arthur Bank the fourth largest bank in the service area. The proposed consolidation
would place the resulting bank in first position, well ahead of its next two
competitors and the remaining smaller banks in the resulting service area. Thus
the proposed merger may lead toward concentration of banking facilities through
additional mergers in the resulting service area in order for the other smaller
banks to effectively compete with the largest bank. For these reasons it appears
that the proposed merger of Arthur Bank with Ida Bank would have adverse
competitive effects.
Basis for Corporation approval, March 2, 1961
The service area of the two banks involved in this proposal includes all of Ida
County which is predominantly an agricultural area with the production of
feeder cattle the major pursuit. The county is one of the most active feeding areas
in the State and ranks twelfth in the number of cattle marketed among Iowa
counties, for its size. Both banks are hard pressed to provide adequate credit
accommodations to farmers because of the relatively low capital position of
each. Consummation of the transaction will bring to Ida County improved and
enlarged credit facilities which should be of material benefit to farmers, cattle
feeders and other business interests of the community since it would increase
the merged bank’s ability to provide needed bank credit. It should also result
in more efficient operating services and a strengthening of the management
factor for the merged institution. The resulting bank will hold only 24.6 percent
of the total deposits and 26.6 percent of the loans in the service area and there
does not appear to be any undue concentration of resources or a dominant
position to be attained by the applicant.

Summary report by Attorney General, January 19,1961
The First State Bank of Albany has assets of $20,653,000, deposits of $18,582,000
and net current operating income in 1959 of $130,000. Albany Trust & Banking
Company has assets of $3,170,000, deposits of $2,261,000 and net operating income
in 1959 of $53,000.
Both banks are engaged in similar types of commercial banking, although
Albany Trust did not enter the commercial field until 1959, having formerly
operated as a savings bank. The facilities of both banks are located close
enough to each other that direct competition would normally exist between them.
The proposed merger could be expected to eliminate such competition, and
strengthen the position of First State, the second largest bank in a service area
in which the third largest bank was recently eliminated by merger.
In view of interlocking stock control and directorship of the acquired and
acquiring banks, competition between the two banks may already have been
affected adversely.
Basis for Corporation approval, March 2, 1961
For many years members of the same family have had substantial stock
holdings in sufficient amount to exercise managerial control of each of the
two institutions and, therefore, during that period of time there has been
little effective competition between the two institutions. The recent entry of
the Albany Trust into the commercial field has been most disappointing and
its ability to effectively compete is subject to serious question. The merger of
the two banks will merely formalize a situation that has long existed in a
manner that should be beneficial to customers of both institutions and to the
public.
The banking needs of this community are being adequately served by the
existing banks. The proposal would eliminate one small affiliated bank with
the negligible competition it provides, but the number of available banking
facilities will remain the same. The merged institution will be able to more
effectively compete with the largest bank in Albany, which has 51.5 percent of
deposits and 51.3 percent of the loans in the area. Furthermore, the expanded
resources and strengthened management of the merged institution should result
in more efficient and improved services for the community.

Summary report by Attorney General, February 15, 1961
There appears to be no actual competition between the two banks, although
there is a likelihood of potential competition if Mid-Carolina Industrial Bank
were to become an independent commercial bank. Beyond this, there seems to be
little danger of serious adverse effects on the other banks in the merging bank’s
service area. The merger will, of course, strengthen to a slight degree the already
dominant position of the acquiring bank in several of its service areas.

Summary report by Attorney General, February 15, 1961
A degree of actual and potential competition exists between the two banks. In
the service area of the acquiring bank the effect may be to render more difficult the
ability of the only other bank, a new entrant, to compete.
In the service area of the merging bank the result will be the elimination of the
only independent bank at a time when its ability to compete with branches of large
banking institutions appears to be rapidly improving.
This merger is but one of many recent bank mergers and consolidations which, if
not halted, threatens to turn North Carolina from a state with many competing
banks into a state in which commercial banking is controlled by a few powerful
banks.
Basis for Corporation approval, March 16, 1961
(cases 6 and 7)
The applicant, which operates a State-wide branch system, proposes to merge two
relatively small, noncompeting, independent banks into its system. In each in­
stance the merged units are competing with multiple branches of well-established
large branch systems.
The Mid-Carolina Industrial Bank is a small institution, organized in 1958, spe­
cializing in installment loans, which accepts only time deposits, and is noncompeti­
tive with the applicant. The merger of this bank with the applicant will correct a
management lacking in banking experience.
In reference to the American Bank, the merger will correct a low capital position
of the institution, which, together with its size, has limited its ability to adequately
serve the area.
The extension of the applicant’s broader facilities to the customers of the merging
banks will result in better banking services for each of the communities, and will
tend to intensify competition in each area.

Summary report by Attorney General, February 13, 1961
The merger of the Security State Bank of Waterville into the Citizens State
Bank of Waterville will result in the elimination of the competition that has here­
tofore existed between the two relatively small banks and in the creation of monop­
oly banking in the town of Waterville.
However, the merging banks contend that they are in a service area in which are
located six additional banks in towns varying from 7 to 13 miles distant from Water­
ville. In this larger area the merged institution would rank fourth in size with 13.9%
of the total deposits and 12.7% of the total loans and discounts of banks in such
larger area.
Thus, while the merger would adversely affect competition in the small town of
Waterville by creating a monopoly in banking, the effect on competition in the
larger geographic area would not appear to be substantial.
Basis for Corporation approval, March 16, 1961
The proposed purchase of assets and assumption of liabilities will solve an existing
management problem in the bank being liquidated. While the reduction of banks
in Waterville from two to one might suggest a monopoly, the effect on local
competition will be of minor consequence inasmuch as this was virtually eliminated
when controlling ownership of the two banks became vested in the same hands.
Moreover, the size of the community and the population and economy of the area
hardly justify the existence of more than one bank in Waterville, and it appears
that a healthy financial economy can be maintained as well, or better, by one larger
consolidated bank than by two small independent banks. The greater resources and
enlarged capital of the applicant, supplemented by an aggressive and competent
management, will enable it to broaden its services to the community and compete
more effectively with two larger banks in its service area.

The Benton Harbor State Bank is the largest bank in Berrien County with slightly

almost 9% of the county’s banking assets, and the sixth largest bank in the tri­
county area having only 6% of the area’s banking assets.
The consolidation would make the resulting bank the equal of the largest bank
in each area. The two leading institutions in Berrien County would control ap­
proximately 50% of the county’s assets, the remaining 50% being distributed among
six other banks. The two leading banks in the tri-county area would control 35%
of the area’s banking assets, the remaining 65% being distributed among the re­
maining eighteen banks. The consolidated bank would also own twice the number
of banking offices of any other bank in either area. Thus, in both areas the con­
solidation of the Benton Harbor State Bank and the Union State Bank would con­
centrate banking facilities and resources in two large banks, and work to the detri­
ment of the remaining smaller institutions.
The two sound banks appear to be in substantial actual and potential competition
with each other. The structures of the deposits and loan accounts of the two banks
are the practical duplicate of each other; both have time and demand deposits from
the United States and State governments as well as from individuals, partnerships,
and corporations, and both have commercial, industrial, and farming loans, loans on
farm real estate, residential property, business and other property, instalment loans
on automobiles, consumer goods and other instalment loans.
It, therefore, appears as a reasonable probability that, were this proposed con­
solidation of the Benton Harbor State Bank and the Union State Bank to be ap­
proved, concentration in banking in the Berrien, Cass and Van Buren area of South­
western Michigan would be substantially increased. A substantial factor in com­
petition would be eliminated, and that other smaller banks in the area might seek
to merge in order to remain effective competitors.
Basis for Corporation approval, April 27, 1961
The proposed consolidation will unite two banks both located in Berrien County
but situated approximately twenty-two miles apart. In view of the distance, com­
petition between the two banks is very slight and is limited to the area of the
Baroda branch of Union, located about twelve miles distant from the applicant.
The transaction will solve a successor management problem created by the recent
retirement of the president at the Benton Harbor Bank and the impending retire­
ment, due to poor health, of its present executive officer. Competition will not be
reduced, but from all appearances will be sharpened and stimulated under the in­
fluence of the greater managerial capabilities of the Buchanan Bank. The con­
solidation will provide larger loan accommodations to important customers in this
rapidly growing section of the State and stimulate greater competition for savings
depositors. Therefore, the expanded resources and strengthened management of the
consolidated institution should result in broader and improved banking services
for the community.

Summary report by Attorney General, March 24, 1961
Morganfield National is a bank with total IPC deposits of $4.2 million. Waverly
has IPC deposits of $.4 million. An examination of application papers submitted by
Morganfield National would indicate the same competition would be eliminated as
between the merging banks, but that such competition has not been substantial.
It would also appear that there is no discernible tendency toward monopoly in
Morganfield inasmuch as it is still surrounded by substantial competition from the
Union Bank and Trust Company, Farmers State Bank and Henderson County State
Bank.
Basis for Corporation approval, May 11, 1961
The depositors of the Bank of Waverly will receive the benefits of deposit in­
surance, banking facilities will be preserved in the Town of Waverly and this pro­
posed merger will solve the Bank of Waverly’s management successor problem, as
a branch operation will be substituted for a unit bank operation that is too small
to be economically sound.

No. 11— Washburn Trust Company, Washburn, Maine
to acquire the assets and assume the liabilities of

Summary report by Attorney General, March 7, 1961
Ashland Trust Company is located in Northern Maine, a town with a population
of approximately 2,370. Washburn Trust Company, located approximately 18 miles
east of Ashland, has a population of about 2,040. There are approximately seven
banks covering the broad area served by Washburn Trust and Ashland Trust, with
the two merging banks being the smallest of the group. The consolidation of Ash­
land Trust and Washburn Trust will add approximately 2 % to Washburn’s per­
centage of all loans in Northern Maine and 2 % to its percentage deposits in this
area. The consolidation will place Washburn on a par with the size of the three
smaller banks in the area and Washburn will remain far smaller than the two
principal banks in Northern Maine, Washburn’s principal competition.
Ashland Trust, in the past ten years, is reported not to have been an aggressive
bank due in part to its aging management. Ashland Trust had previously attempted
to sell its assets to Northern National Bank, the largest in the area, but this ap­
plication was withdrawn. Soon thereafter, Ashland submitted for consideration to
your office a consolidation with Washburn Trust Company. It is the intention of
Washburn Trust to operate Ashland Trust as a branch in Ashland’s present location.

In view of the small size of these two banks and the fact that there are other
larger banks available to service the area, it does not appear that a merger through
the purchase of assets and assumption of liabilities of Ashland Trust by the Wash­
burn Trust will have any appreciable effect on competition.
Basis for Corporation approval, M ay 18, 1961
Although Ashland Trust Company has been in business since 1917, its progress in
this small and declining town has been limited; during the past five years it has
been static. Its small earning power has foreclosed the possibility of acquiring rec­
ognized management ability and providing a fuller range of services. The purchase
and assumption transaction will increase the ability of Washburn Trust Company
to compete with its substantially larger neighbors and at the same time provide Ash­
land with better banking facilities and services under capable management.

No. 12— Jenkintown Bank and Trust Company,

(change of title to Industrial Valley Bank and

to merge with
Industrial Trust Company, Philadelphia

30,952

Summary report by Attorney General, May, 29, 1961
Jenkintown Bank and Trust Company is the largest independent bank in the
Jenkintown service area, which is a residential area adjacent to the city of Phila­
delphia. At the present time, there are 9 banking offices in the area, 4 of which
belong to Jenkintown Bank and Trust Company, while an additional 4 are branches
of considerably larger Philadelphia banks and the 9th is a small single unit opera­
tion.
Concentration in commercial banking in the Philadelphia area is among the
highest in the United States, and a pronounced tendency toward oligopoly in com­
mercial banking exists in that area. This is due in large part to the mergers and
consolidations that have taken place in recent years. The 5 largest banks control
83% of all IPC deposits and 84% of all loans and discounts. While the Industrial
Trust is not one of the 5 largest, it is a successful organization, maintaining 11 offices
in the greater Philadelphia area, which area includes Jenkintown.
W e believe that the proposed merger would eliminate a factor in competition,
eliminate a degree of competition between the merging banks and further add to
concentration in banking in the Philadelphia area.
Basis for Corporation approval, June 15, 1961
The Jenkintown Bank and Trust Company and the Industrial Trust Company are
both modest in size in relation to most competing banks in the general service area.
The types of services presently offered by the two banks are largely complementary

rather than competitive. The subject proposal will involve no change in the com­
petitive situation in the immediate service area of either bank but should contribute
to improved service by the resulting bank in both areas. The merger will provide
greater resources and needed enlarged and specialized loan facilities in the con­
struction, mortgage and instalment lending fields, thus contributing to improved
banking services in the growing Jenkintown area. Thus, the merged institution will
be in a more advantageous position to compete with the much larger Philadelphia
banks and their branches.

to acquire the assets and assume the liabilities of
The Parkville Bank, Parkville

4,392

25

Summary report by Attorney General, May 23, 1961
The Equitable Trust Company, Baltimore, Maryland, proposes to acquire the
assets and to assume the liabilities of the Parkville Bank, Parkville, Maryland.
Equitable and another large Baltimore bank have branch offices in the area served
by The Parkville Bank, a relatively small unit bank. The proposed acquisition would
of course eliminate the competition presently offered by this small bank and leave
in the area served by it only branches of two of Baltimore’s largest banks.
Basis for Corporation approval, June 29, 1961
The impetus for this transaction arose from the sudden absence of experienced
management at the Parkville bank. This transaction by substituting the manage­
ment of a sound, well managed bank will satisfactorily solve a rather serious man­
agement problem at the Parkville Bank. Parkville is an integral part of metropolitan
Baltimore and the degree of competition eliminated is not substantial. There will
remain aggressive competition between two branches of Baltimore banks providing
complete, modern banking services.

Summary report by Attorney General, May 1, 1961
The acquisition of the assets of the Bank of Grand Junction by the Hardeman
County Savings Bank would eliminate existing and potential competition between
the two banks. Within the service area there are 5 other small independent banks
along with the branch of a larger bank competing for the same type of business.
After the acquisition, the Hardeman Savings Bank would have a substantial portion

of the business. However, in view of the management problems confronting the
Bank of Grand Junction, the possibility of its liquidation and the fact that such
acquisition would not substantially increase any advantages of the Hardeman Sav­
ings Bank over its competitors, it is our conclusion that this acquisition would have
no substantial adverse effect on competition.
Basis for Corporation approval, June 29, 1961
The acquisition of assets and assumption of deposit liabilities by the Bolivar bank
will remedy a serious management void at Grand Junction. The chief operating of­
ficer of the latter bank is recently deceased and the bank does not have an experi­
enced officer. Because of its size and limited earning power, it has been unable to
attract adequate management and the chief operating officer of the Bolivar bank
has been devoting about one-half his time to supervising the affairs of the Grand
Junction bank. This transaction appears to be the most desirable means of con­
tinuing banking services at Grand Junction.

to merge with

13,311

1,109

Summary report by Attorney General, June 16, 1961
Coahoma County Bank and Trust Company is the second largest bank in the
service area of approximately 40,000 people. There are only 3 other banks operating
in this area including Peoples Bank of Jonestown, the third or fourth largest de­
pending on the test applied.
The degree of competition between the merging banks is only nominal since the
officers of applicant appear to have recently acquired all of the outstanding stock
of the merging bank.
The merger will, of course, reduce alternate sources of banking services in Coa­
homa County from four to three. However, in view of the relative small size of the
merging bank and the nature of its ownership it does not appear that the effect on
competition by the proposed merger would be substantial.
Basis for Corporation approval, July 6, 1961
Coahoma County Bank is the second largest and Peoples Bank of Jonestown is
the smallest of four banks serving Coahoma County. Banks in the area tend to be
local in their service areas except to the extent that the larger banks serve demands
of larger customers. The subject proposal will involve no significant change in the
competitive situation but should contribute to improved banking services, particu­
larly in the Jonestown community. Because of size, the lending power of Peoples

Bank of Jonestown has been inadequate to meet the demands of customers and it
has not been able to expand its services. This situation has made it difficult for this
small bank to produce satisfactory earnings and its continuance as a unit bank may
be questionable from an economic standpoint. The proposed merger would not only
provide continuing and somewhat expanded local banking facilities for the Jones­
town community, but as a branch office of the applicant it would have a larger legal
loan limit, much more in keeping with the type of farming operations in the area.

to merge with
Killington Bank and Trust Company, Rutland

24,795

15,841

2

6

Summary report by Attorney General, June 14, 1961
Neither bank competes with one another in other than a minimal way. Because
of the geographical location of the merging banks, there appears to be little, if any,
competition between them. Each is the second largest bank in its service area.
There appears to be no substantial adverse effect on competition stemming from
the proposed merger.
Basis for Corporation approval, July 27, 1961
The merging banks operate in separate service areas in central and southern Ver­
mont. There is no present competition between them. The merger will result in a
materially strengthened capital position for the applicant which provides it with
the base for increased competition with its chief competitor, the largest commercial
bank in Vermont. The larger capital and resources of the applicant will also enable
it to more effectively service the credit requirements of the area.

Summary report by Attorney General, M ay 16, 1961
Garvice D . Kincaid, three other persons, and the Kentucky Central Life & Acci­

stock of Peoples State Bank. These parties apparently vote their stock together and
effectively control both banks. Nevertheless, they are under no legal obligation to
act together and their control would end if any of the stock came into adverse
hands or if any of them decided to act independently.
These parties would control over 50% of the stock of the resulting bank. Since
there is practically no other joint ownership of the merging banks the possibility

of present or future effective opposition to the Kincaid group in the resulting bank
will be much less than the possibility of effective opposition in either of the merging
banks. Thus, the banks should be viewed as independent entities. Moreover, if
mergers are allowed merely because the same parties control both banks it might
be possible to circumvent Public Law 86-463.
There are four banks in Winchester, a town of approximately 10,000 persons. Each
has the same service area, the population of which is approximately 60,000. By any
measure of size each of the merging banks has approximately 17% of the market
while the other two banks have approximately 40% and 2 7 % , respectively. The
merger will reduce the number of banks to three and create a situation where each
of the three controls roughly one-third of the market. Both of the merging banks
are operating at a profit.
The merger may foreclose nonbanking competitors of Mr. Kincaid from access to
bank funds and it may increase the likelihood that banking competitors of Mr.
Kincaid will be foreclosed from the substantial banking business of his banking and
nonbanking interests.
The effect of the merger upon the banking structure of Winchester, and the in­
terests and activities of M r. Kincaid lead the Department to conclude that the
merger would have an undue anticompetitive impact.
Basis for Corporation approval, July 27, 1961
This merger involves the two smallest of four commercial banks in Winchester.
Majority ownership of both banks is commonly held and, because of this affiliation,
competition between them has been limited. The enlarged bank will be stronger
and will provide broader and more modern facilities and services than either bank
could provide independently.
Although Winchester has supported four banks for many years, there appears to
be no real need for this number of banks, and the community probably should be
regarded as overbanked. As of December 31, 1960, the average population per bank
in Kentucky was 8,558, while the population per bank of the Winchester banks
(Clark County population 21,075) was 5,268 before the merger and 7,025 after the
merger. Three banks of roughly equal size should better fulfill all normal banking
requirements of the Winchester area, and therefore be more likely to offer effective
competition to each other than do the present four banks. In our opinion the nonbanking competitive factor of the Kincaid interests would not be affected were
the merger approved or not approved.

Summary report by Attorney General, August 3, 1961
The bank of Orrick, Orrick, Missouri, proposes to merge with the Citizens Ex­
change Bank, Orrick, Missouri.
Since there is far reaching identity of personnel and ownership of the two banks,
it does not appear that there is effective competition between them which would
be eliminated by the proposed merger. The effect of the merger of these small banks
on competition would not be adverse.
Basis for Corporation approval, August 24, 1961
This transaction combines two small, commonly owned and managed banks in
which the death of the President of both banks had caused management and op­
erating problems which could best be solved through merger of the two banks. The
limited growth of the area and of the banks, together with the absence of effective
competition between them indicates the area will be adequately served by the re­
maining bank. The combination of the two banks will formalize existing relation­
ships and thus provide continuity of banking services in the Orrick area in a more
stable and efficient manner than was previously possible.

22

Summary report by Attorney General, August 18, 1961
The only area in which the two institutions significantly compete with each other
is in the rendering of trust services in metropolitan Lincoln, Nebraska.
The consolidation will reduce the number of major institutions competing for trust
business in that area from three to two, but the significance of this reduction is
mitigated by the circumstance that National Bank's trust business is now operating
at a substantial loss. The consolidation will not give National Bank a decisive
advantage over its remaining competitor. Therefore, it does not appear that this
consolidation would have serious adverse effects on competition in the rendering of
trust services in the area involved.
Basis for Corporation approval, September 1, 1961
This proposal involves the consolidation of a commercial bank operating a rela­
tively small trust department and an uninsured trust company which is not au­
thorized to accept deposits. It does not appear, therefore, that consummation of the
proposed consolidation will have any significant effect on the commercial bank

activity in the city of Lincoln other than the enlarged capital of the consolidated
bank will permit it to compete more effectively with its larger local competitor,
but with no adverse effect on the smaller existing banks.
The acquisition of the outstanding management of The First Trust Company of
Lincoln, which had some 50 years of experience in trust activities and has developed
a diversified source of business, will materially strengthen the management of the
resulting bank. The trust department of the National Bank of Commerce of Lincoln
does not now have a Farm Management or Mortgage Loan Department and the
acquisition of these activities together with experienced personnel, a strengthened
capital position with resulting larger lending limit, will enable the resulting bank
to more adequately serve the agricultural segment of the State.

Summary report by Attorney General, August 11, 1961
The Durham Bank & Trust Company, with headquarters in Durham, North
Carolina, operates 16 offices in Durham and the surrounding area. It has total
deposits of $40,697,000, net loans and discounts of $21,317,000, and total assets of
$45,352,000. University National Bank operates its head office and one branch in
Chapel Hill. It has total deposits of $2,810,000, net loans and discounts of $1,130,000,
and total assets of $3,240,000.
Existing competition between the banks appears to be insignificant. The merger
would eliminate one of two independent banks in Chapel Hill, but would not greatly
increase Durham’s advantage over smaller banks competing in the service area of
the resulting bank, or unduly increase banking concentration. For these reasons, the
effect on competition would not appear to be pronounced.
Basis for Corporation approval, September 14, 1961
The proposed merger will solve an immediate management problem created by
the recent serious illness of the executive officer at the Chapel Hill bank. Enlarged
and more efficient banking services, including trust services not now available
locally, will be made available to the residents of Chapel Hill. All of the factors
required to be considered have been favorably determined and it is concluded that
the proposed merger will be in the public interest.

Summary report by Attorney General, July 18, 1961
Branch Banking & Trust Company has deposits of approximately $87,387,000, net
loans and discounts of $36,137,000 and assets of $104,330,000. It has nineteen offices
throughout eastern North Carolina, one of which, in Selma, is within three miles of
the acquired bank’s head office. Citizens, the acquired bank, has deposits of $2,199,000, net loans and discounts of $659,000, and assets of $2,510,000. It operates two
offices.
It is our view that this merger would affect competition in the rural area now
served by Citizens by eliminating an independent factor in competition, increasing
to a degree, banking concentration, and eliminating competition between the ac­
quired bank and the Selma branch of the acquiring bank. The merger would have
little effect on competition with the larger area now served by Branch.
Basis for Corporation approval, September 14, 1961
The management of Citizens was desirous of retiring and was without adequate
management succession within the bank. Although it operated within the over-all
service area of the applicant, the degree of competition between Citizens and any
of the applicant’s offices which was eliminated is considered to be minimal. As a
result of the merger, the applicant, without adversely affecting any of the smaller
banks, can provide much stronger competition for the larger banks soliciting business
in the Micro-Princeton area than could Citizens. The wider range of services, includ­
ing trust services not offered by Citizens and lower interest rates on some types of
loans, redounds to the benefit of the entire community with only a minimal effect
on competition in the area now served by Citizens. Nor will the applicant bank, as
a result of the merger, gain any competitive advantage other than to increase its
area coverage without any significant increase in banking concentration.

change the present relative competitive positions of the financial institutions within
the service area of the proposed bank, it appears that it will have no adverse effect
on competition.
Basis for Corporation approval, September 28, 1961
The Franklin State Bank, and its predecessor, has provided uninterrupted bank­
ing service to the community of Franklin since 1886. This bank is now owned by
outside interests who wish to place the bank in liquidation. A group of local citizens
proposes to organize a new bank, to be locally owned, to assume the deposit lia­
bilities of the liquidating bank, purchase its assets, and provide continued banking
service in the community.
All of the banking factors are considered to be favorable and there will be no
unfavorable effect on the competitive situation.

Summary report by Attorney General, September 6, 1961
This acquisition would probably not adversely affect the competitive situation
in the service area of both banks.
Basis for Corporation approval, September 28, 1961
The preceding transaction involving two banks in north-central Pennsylvania has
no significant competitive effects. The transaction provides a continuing banking
alternative in Smethport offering a wider range of services than were previously
provided.

Summary report by Attorney General, July 28, 1961
The Hollidaysburg Trust Company, Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania proposed to
purchase the assets and to assume liability to pay deposits made in the First N a­
tional Bank of Williamsburg, Williamsburg, Pennsylvania.
The proposed acquisition would leave Hollidaysburg Trust the third largest bank
in its present and future service areas. The competition between Hollidaysburg
Trust and First National, weak in the past, is only nominal today since five officers

and directors of Hollidaysburg Trust have acquired more than two-thirds of the
outstanding shares of First National.
Basis for Corporation approval, September 28, 1961
In the past, both banks in the Borough of Williamsburg have been hampered by
not being able to provide adequate lending power necessary to serve all members
of the community, particularly farmers. As a result, the growth of each has been
below average. While the proposal will subject the local competing bank to in­
creased competition, its management is not concerned as it believes it will be able
to capitalize on being a locally owned and managed bank and benefit from it.
The proposal will bring to the community of Williamsburg complete and en­
larged banking services, including trust services and consumer credit facilities which
are not now available, and will provide depth and continuity of management. The
expanded resources and larger lending limits should permit more adequate financ­
ing of farming operations in the area, which should also be of material benefit to
the community.

No. 25— The Central Jersey Bank and Trust Company,
Freehold, New Jersey
to merge with
The First National Bank of Bradley Beach,
Bradley Beach

61,585

12,934

Summary report by Attorney General, June 26, 1961
The addition of The First National Bank of Bradley Beach to The Central Jersey
Bank and Trust Company would further enhance the dominant position of Central
Jersey in Monmouth County, a position principally attributable to a series of
mergers in recent years. The merger would result in an undue concentration of
banking power as the three largest banks would control over 47% of the total de­
posits in the county.
In addition to eliminating another independent bank, the proposed merger may
lead the remaining small banks to combine in order that they may be able to ef­
fectively compete with the larger banks. Moreover, it appears that the merger would
eliminate substantial competition presently existing between the banks.
It is the view of the Department of Justice, therefore, that the proposed merger,
if consummated, would have substantial adverse competitive consequences on the
general banking area.
Basis for Corporation approval, October 3, 1961
Monmouth County, in which the merging banks are located, is one of the fastest
growing counties in the State and is experiencing rapid expansion both residentially
and in industrial development. During the decade from 1940 to 1950 the population

of the county increased nearly 40 percent and in the decade ended 1960 the county
population increased over 48 percent, with such growth reflected in most of the
communities served by the participating banks. The future outlook is bright and
evidences the need for larger financial institutions to adequately serve this expand­
ing economy, and this proposed merger will serve to partially fulfill that need. The
merged institution will have a greater lending capacity and will be in a better posi­
tion to provide broader and more efficient services to the banking public of M on­
mouth County. While the Central Jersey Bank and Trust Company will enhance its
position slightly as the largest bank in the service area, it is not felt it will be
placed in any undue position of dominancy. Although one relatively small in­
dependent bank will be eliminated, there will remain fifteen competing commercial
banks offering ample alternative sources, several of which are sufficiently large to
assure continuing effective and healthy competition.

No. 26— Saline State Bank, Wilber, Nebraska
to acquire the assets and assume the liabilities of
Wilber State Bank, Wilber

1,263

1,348

Summary report by Attorney General, September 21, 1961
These two small banks, located in the same small community, while in competi­
tion with each other, are the third and fourth largest banks in their service area.
Their merger would not substantially affect competition adversely nor would it
tend toward monopoly.
Basis for Corporation approval, October 26, 1961
Although the community of Wilber, Nebraska, has supported three small banks
reasonably well for many years, the lack of growth of each in recent years and the
rather stable character of the economy of this agricultural community would indi­
cate that banking facilities are no doubt excessive, and it is felt that this proposal
will tend to relieve an over-banked situation. While the Saline State Bank will
attain a dominant position in the city of Wilber, there is no indication that this
will work any undue hardship on the remaining local competing bank which ex­
pects to gain a substantial volume of new deposits as a result of this transac­
tion. While the number of banks in Wilber will be reduced from three to two, it
does not appear that consummation of the proposal will result in any significant
lessening of competition and the end result will probably be two substantially
larger banks capable of providing increased and more efficient banking services than
those now being provided by the three small banks.

Summary report by Attorney General, September 1, 1961
The resulting bank would be the only bank within the service area. In the past,
however, city banks, not considered by the applicants to be within the service area
because of their distance therefrom, have been the only facilities available to the
larger borrowers, due to the limited financial structure of the applicants. The indus­
trialization of the area should stimulate banking activity and the resulting bank
will be in a position to compete with the city banks in providing the required fa­
cilities and to provide the area with banking services not presently available. In
view of this and in view of the limited population of the area (5900), the proposed
consolidation would not appear to have a substantial adverse effect on competition.
Basis for Corporation approval, November 2, 1961
The major portions of Eddyville and Kuttawa, Kentucky, including the principal
business areas, eventually will be flooded by a lake to be created on the Cumber­
land River behind the Barkley Dam, which is now under construction. This neces­
sitates relocation or other disposition of affairs of most businesses in the two com­
munities, including the two banks involved in this proposal. A new community, New
Eddyville, is being established to accommodate the businesses and individuals that
will be affected, and the participating banks propose to establish one bank in New
Eddyville to provide continuing banking services for the community.
It is felt that one bank will be adequate to serve the needs of the community, at
least until a great deal more development than is now under way or anticipated
has materialized. Furthermore, the consolidation will provide a bank with a much
greater potential for strength and adequate servicing than could be obtained in two
independent operations, and the expanded resources and larger legal lending limits
of the resulting bank will doubtlessly be of material benefit in the future develop­
ment of the new community of New Eddyville.

small number of large banks. Northwestern, a $100,000,000 bank, is centered in
western North Carolina. Its offices surround Bank of Elkin and the proposed merger
would add to the adverse effect on competition which the many mergers are having
in the state.
Basis for Corporation approval, November 30, 1961
The Bank of Elkin operated successfully in the northwest section of North Caro­
lina where the surrounding area is mountainous and there is only limited trade
among the various communities. There was no evidence that any important com­
petition between the two banks would be eliminated and none of the bankers in
the area registered an objection to the merger. The applicant is the smallest of six
banks operating extensive branch systems in North Carolina and after this merger
wrould hold only approximately 3.3 percent of the total deposits of commercial banks
in the State; the merger representing an increase of approximately 0.3 percent. The
merger would provide broadened banking services in Elkin and enhance the ap­
plicant’s management.

No. 29— The Northwestern Bank,
North Wilkesboro, North Carolina
to merge with
The Surry County Loan & Trust Company,
Mount Airy

103,405

6,466

Summary report by Attorney General, October 19, 1961
Northwestern Bank, operating 32 offices in 24 communities in western North
Carolina, proposes to merge with Surry County Loan & Trust Company, operating
two offices in Mount Airy and Dobson.
Northwestern has total assets of about $96,000,000 and Surry County Loan, assets
of about $6,400,000. There is little competition in the Mount Airy-Dobson areas
from other banks. It appears that Northwestern is the principal bank operating in
the same general area and the effect of this merger, together with that of another
proposed merger of Northwestern and The Bank of Elkin, now pending, may be to
lessen competition in commercial banking generally in the State of North Carolina.
Basis for Corporation approval, November 30, 1961
The Surry County Loan & Trust Company operated in Mount Airy and Dobson,
North Carolina. Although Mount Airy has considerable industry, the surrounding
area is similar to that of Elkin in the preceding case and topographical conditions
limit competition among the various communities. There did not appear to be any
significant competition between the applicant and Surry and none of the bankers
in the area registered an objection to the merger. Management of the remaining

bank in Mount Airy expected no difficulty in coping with the new competition and
considered they might gain deposits from those customers who would prefer to deal
with a local bank. The merger would not change the applicant’s position with respect
to the larger banks in the State and its proportion of the total commercial bank
deposits in North Carolina would be only 3.5 percent, an increase of only 0.2 per­
cent. The broader and stronger facilities and larger lending limits of the applicant
would benefit the Mount Airy service area.

No. 30— Guaranty Bank and Trust Company,
Worcester, Massachusetts
to consolidate with
The Peoples NationallBank of ^Southbridge, Southbridge

52,762

5,448

8

Summary report by Attorney General, November 30, 1961
Guaranty Bank, with assets of approximately $52,762,000 is the second largest
commercial bank in Worcester County. The largest is Worcester County National
Bank, with assets of approximately $154,000,000. Guaranty Bank proposes to con­
solidate with Peoples National Bank of Southbridge, the smallest in Worcester
County, with assets of approximately $5,400,000.
The consolidating banks apparently have no common depositors or borrowers and
the business of one bank arising in the service area of the other is described as
“negligible and immaterial.” No office of one bank is closer than 20 miles from an
office of the other bank. Although a proposed branch of Guaranty Bank at Auburn
will be about 15 miles from the home office of Peoples National and the service
area of the two banks would overlap to some extent, it does not appear that any
substantial amount of potential competition within such overlapping area would be
foreclosed by the consolidation.
The only commercial bank competing with Peoples National in the latter’s service
area is Worcester County National Bank. The proposed consolidation does not ap­
pear to threaten the position of any of the banks in Worcester County and in our
view does not seem to have significant adverse competitive effects.
Basis for Corporation approval, December 21, 1961
The two banks involved in this proposal are located about 20 miles apart, their
service areas do not overlap, and there is very little existing or potential competi­
tion between the two to be eliminated through this proposal. Competition in the
present service area of the applicant will not be affected. In Southbridge Peoples
competes directly, to some disadvantage, with a branch of the largest bank in the
county and as branches of the applicant will be able to compete more effec­
tively. Competition in the Southbridge area will probably be intensified but not
to any degree that would be harmful to other existing banks in the area.
The proposal will extend additional trust services, as well as larger lending limits

No. 31— Berkshire Housatonic Trust Company,

14,900

9,168

Summary report by Attorney General, December 1, 1961
The proposed merger would significantly increase the concentration of banking
Dusiness in Berkshire County. In Adams and North Adams alone, the resulting
bank would have approximately 50 percent of the IPC deposits and loans held by
all commercial banks competing in those cities. W e believe that the merger would
have substantially adverse effects upon competition in the service area of the result­
ing bank, especially in the Adams and North Adams areas.
Basis for Corporation approval, December 29, 1961
Berkshire County, where the three consolidating banks operate, is a distinct eco­
nomic and geographic area in Western Massachusetts. The consolidation provides
geographic diversification for the applicant and extends its broader and larger fa­
cilities to the Adams and North Adams areas. The growth of the consolidating banks
in these towns has been below average, probably reflecting their industrial maturity.
They are now economically dependent to a significant degree on one company or
industry. It was determined that there was little overlapping of service areas and
no important competition among the banks which would be eliminated. There will
remain eight commercial banks and nine mutual savings banks in Berkshire County
providing competition for the applicant which will hold less than 10 percent of the
aggregate deposits and loans of these banks. The savings banks in the County hold
two and one-quarter times the total deposits held by the commercial banks and
more than eight times the time deposits held by the commercial banks. The Board
found favorably on all seven factors required to be considered by law and con­
cluded that the consolidation which would provide increased commercial bank
credit facilities in the service area while not eliminating any important competition
was in the public interest.
1Unless otherwise indicated, the first named bank is a resulting insured nonmember bank.
2 Corporation approval required for absorption of noninsured bank by an insured bank. Approval by
Comptroller of the Currency also required because continuing bank is a national bank.
3 Two offices approved for temporary operation only.

Statements of assets and liabilities are submitted by insured com­
mercial banks upon either a cash or an accrual basis, depending upon
the bank’s method of bookkeeping. Assets reported represent aggre­
gate book value, on the date of call, less valuation and premium
reserves.

Instalment loans are ordinarily reported net if the instalment pay­
ments are applied directly to the reduction of the loan. Such loans are
reported gross if, under contract, the payments do not immediately
reduce the unpaid balances of the loan but are assigned or pledged to
assure repayment at maturity.

Assets and liabilities held in or administered by a savings, bond,
insurance, real estate, foreign, or any other department of a bank,
except a trust department, are consolidated with the respective assets
and liabilities of the commercial department. “Deposits of individuals,
partnerships, and corporations” include trust funds deposited by a
trust department in a commercial or savings department. Other assets
held in trust are not included in statements of assets and liabilities.

Asset and liability data for noninsured banks are tabulated from
reports pertaining to the individual banks. In a few cases these reports
are not as detailed as those submitted by insured banks, and some of
the items reported have been allocated to more detailed categories
according to the distribution of asset and liability data for insured
State banks not members of the Federal Reserve System or for other
noninsured banks.

In the case of banks with one or more domestic branches, the assets
and liabilities reported are consolidations of figures for the head office
and all domestic branches. In the case of a bank with foreign branches,
net amounts due from its own foreign branches are included in “Other
assets,” and net amounts due to its own foreign branches are included
in “ Other liabilities.” Branches outside the continental United States
of insured banks in the United States are treated as separate entities
but as in the case of other branches are not included in the count of
banks. Data for such branches are not included in the figures for the
States in which the parent banks are located.
Demand balances with and demand deposits due to banks in the
United States, except private banks and American branches of foreign
banks, exclude reciprocal interbank deposits. Reciprocal interbank
deposits arise when two banks maintain deposit accounts with each
other.
Individual loan items are reported gross instead of net of valuation
reserves. Accordingly, reserves for losses on loans are shown sep­
arately.




Additional data on assets and liabilities of all banks as of June 30,
1961, and December 30, 1961, and of insured banks as of April 12, 1961,
and September 27, 1961, are shown in the Corporation’s semiannual
publication, “Assets, Liabilities, and Capital Accounts, Commercial
and Mutual Savings Banks,” Report of Calls N o. 55 and 56, and
Report of Calls No. 57 and 58.

of the Currency.

The income data received and published by the Corporation relate
to commercial and mutual savings banks insured by the Corporation.

Commercial banks
Reports of income and dividends are submitted to the Federal
supervisory agencies on either a cash or an accrual basis.

Two expense items previously reported separately have been com­

losses on securities sold.

The present report of income and dividends for mutual savings
banks was first used by the Corporation for the calendar year 1951.
For a discussion of the history and principles of this report see pp.
50-52 in Part Two of the 1951 Annual Report.

INSURED

The new form breaks out the following items not previously avail­
able separately: (1) benefits to officers and other employees; (2)
net occupancy expense of bank premises, with a supporting schedule;
(3) furniture and equipment expense (including costs related to the
purchase or rental of automated data processing systems); and (4)

Mutual savings banks

OF

The uniform Report of Income and Dividends (formerly called
Report of Earnings and Dividends) was revised extensively in 1961.
New items were added, combining components previously included in
other items; and some items were subsumed into new categories.
Thus certain items, even carrying the same designation (e.g. other
current operating expenses), are not comparable with data reported
for prior years.

In addition to other minor changes in classification, new designa­
tions have been given to certain items. For example, the term “net
income” is the new equivalent of the former term “net profits ” A
further change entailed the division of officers and other employees
into two groups: those engaged in banking operations, and those
concerned with building operations.

INCOME

Income data are included for all insured banks operating at the end
of the respective years, unless indicated otherwise. In addition, appro­
priate adjustments have been made for banks in operation during
part of the year but not at the end of the year. Data for 3 insured
branches in Guam of an insured bank in California, for 3 insured
branches in New York of 2 insured banks in Puerto Rico, for 15
insured branches in Puerto Rico and for 4 insured branches in the
Virgin Islands of insured banks in New York are not available.

bined with other items: (1) taxes other than oil net income; and
(2) recurring depreciation on banking house, furniture and fixtures.
Taxes on bank premises, social security taxes paid in behalf of build­
ing employees, and recurring depreciation on banking house are now
included under occupancy expense of bank premises. Other social
security taxes are included with officer and employee benefits. Re­
curring depreciation on furniture and fixtures is now included with
furniture and equipment expense.

Sources o f data
National banks and State banks in the District of Columbia not
members of the Federal Reserve System: Office of the Comptroller of
the Currency.
State banks members of the Federal Reserve System: Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Other insured banks: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
