Income increased slightly in December, the total for the
month being $141,205.- 33,
During the last half of the year earnings
fluctuated from #157,800 in July to §132,400 in November.
Total
earnings for the year were $1,965,000 which was three million dol
lars less than the amount earned in 1921
Discounts for member
banks ranged from $11,689,000 in September to §£5,224,000 in
January.
On December 30 our total advances to member banks were
$21,916,000 in comparison with $51,200,000 advanced on December 31,
1921
The average rate earned on discounts during 1922 was
5 0119 per cent
In 1921 the rate averaged 6.479 per cent.
W had
e
no income from acceptances purchased and but $625,17 from Warrants
discounted.
In common with other Federal Reserve Banks, we pur
chased United States Securities more freely and our income from
this source was $383,530*44 compared to #142,001 30 in 1921. We were
oarrying #13,071,000 of the various Government issues on December
30.
The average rate of return for the year on these securities
was 3«>427 per oent while in 1920 and 1921 it had been only slightly
better than 2 per cent due to our very small holdings of United
States securities, other than Special Z% certificates securing cir
culation.
Daring the latter part of the year these certificates
were steadily reduoed and the last certificate was called on
December 28.
Part of our income during past few months has come
from carrying united States securities for Federal Land Bank under
repurchase agreement.
The income of $31950 under "Domestic Trans
fers" represents Interest charged on delayed transfers, wired for
our oredito
Deficient Reserve penalties were higher at Minneapolis
than for any other month during the year.
Oar total earned of
$128,087o

we not reduced the maximum penalty rate to 10$.

j m m m ..
In making a comparison of 1S22 and 1921 expenses it is perhaps
well to state that the ratio of reduction in 1925 will not be as great as
in 1922*
Comment is offered on the more important items with reasons given
for the variations from 1921 figures.
PAY ROLL
Our payroll reduction for the year was ^65,300
but in comparing
with 1921 figures allowance should be made for bonus paid covering first
six months of 1921 amountin': to 032,394.
Likewise the Fiscal Agency ex
pense absorbed by the bank in 1922 was $20,000. greater than in 1921 and
salary increases amounting to approximately $15,000
were also granted. The
net result is a better showing for 1922 of $68,000.
TRAVELING BXPBHSBS
"hile there is an apparent redaction in this item of 314,000. at
tention is drawn to the fact that the traveling expenses of our representa
tives at failed banks are now carried under "All Other Expenses" and amount
to $11*227.
The total for the year charged in expense is $32,697., similar
expense in 1921 being $35,505.
ASSESSMENT FOR FBUBIUL HBBHtttt BOARD ffitPTOSBS
The total assessment paid by u> daring 1922 was $24,944.83 which
is $609.66 less than the payment for 1921.
On the basis of our assessment
for the first six months of 1923 the total charge for 1923 will be approxi
mately $2,900. lower than in 1922,,
The Federal Reserve Board expenses from
January 1 to Jane 30, 1923 are estimated at $387,000.
HKUi1
,
la include under this heading salary to legal Counsel at
Minneapolis #5,000., office expense of counsel $2500. and salary of counsel
Weir at Helena, $3600.
The balance of this expense $492.09 represents
traveling and maintenance of counsel on bank business.
Legal fees incurred
by our representatives at closed banks are not carried under this expense
item.

(All Kinls other than Fire)
In August we took advantage of a new blanket policy arranged
for the benefit of Federal Beserve Sanies through a committee formed to
study such matters.
This policy covers all persons in our employ at
Minneapolis and Helena other than Agent and Assistant Federal Reserve
Agents, also Bank Burglary. Holdup and Forgery,
The policy taken
August 1 was for #509,000 with premium of $12,500. yearly.
On November
1 we arranged with tt e Hartford Company for an excess blanket Bond of
il
$1,060,000. with yearly premium f 5,000. on first $500,000. and $2,500.
on second $500,000.
These policies also corer Helena Brandh.
With the
various other polici'es we carry, our expense of this nature approximates
$25,000.per year and should not vary a great deal.
The life insurance
we oarry for our employees costs us approximately §3,990. per year
after allowanoe is made for return premiums.
BAgglHG HOUSE
Under this heading we show taxes, ligit, repairs, etc. for
the Helena bank property only.
Our taxes at Minneapolis are charged to
a separate account "Expense Other Beal Bstate” and will be so handled
until we oooupy our own building.
RENT
Rentals at Minneapolis amount to $23,924.60 per year and at
Eelena $125. per monta was paid during 1922.
We include under "Bent"
however, all repairs and alterations, also, ligfet, heat, and power re
quired in the Annex at Minneapolis and in the separate building used as
a transit department St Helena.
the year 944,027,87.
Total expenses of above character tor
Our rental expense for 1923 will be greater as we
have Just acquired additional spaoo in which to place our files but
bills for repairs and alterations should be loner.

OFFICE SUPPLIES
PRIMTIKG AKP STATIONERY
Resuit8 have been shown in cutting down costs of general
affioe supplies and printing during the past year.
Paper oosts hare
fluctuated and many items have ranged in price from 20 per oent above
to 50 per cent below 1921 prices.
Total expense at Minneapolis has
been $52,029.47 in comparison with $84,222.40 expended in 1921.
At
Helena, costs have not changed materially and the total expense of
$12,439 13 is only $410o57 below the figures of 1921
m a sR tes
Costs were over #3,000 lower for the year at Minneapolis
and approximately #1,300 greater at Helena.
Allowance mast be made,
however, for the fact that in 1921 the branch was open only eleven
months.
While the records indicate a considerable expansion in trans
actions handled over our private wire, the oosts are about $1,600
lower.
The ruling that descriptive data should not be included in
transfers for member banks and the coding of every wire possible, has
brought about the lowered expense.
POSTAGE
The postage used by our Transit Department was $63,000 out
of a total Postage Expense of $79,000c
largely in transit work.
Any saving effected must be
Although we had a daily average of 5,324
more items handled by the Transit Department than in 1921, the total
postage expense was $800 less for the year,
Eliminating stamped en
velopes and installation of postage meters in May brought improvement,
No meters have been installed at Helena^

This represents postage and. insurance on bonds shipped
to or from our Collateral Department, the individual charges being
small, and the costs on bonds sent in for exchange*
During the
greater part of 1921 this latter expense was absorbed by the Treasury
Department but has been during 1922 an operating expense *

Country shipmants increased SO per cent during the year
and this item will, no doubt, be larger in 1923*
Heavy incoming
shipments of coin in 1921, soon after we assumed sub-treasury functions,
increased the expense for that year materially, otherwise the ratio
of increase would have been greater during 1922 ^
Incoming expense on
all currency and coin and outgoing expense on all except silver dollars
is now assumed*

CLOSED BANK EXPENSE
Since March 1 we have paid all expenses incurred by our re
presentatives at Closed Banks through Minneapolis.
Salaries of repre
sentatives are included in Pay Roll figires, but traveling, mainte
nance, and other incidental expenses appear as a special item on the
back of our expense report.
We also keep an expense account covering
all costs to us at eaoh Closed Bankc
The total amount of unrecovered
expense of this nature at close of business December 50, was ^ l , 592.29.
In addition to this our offioe expense for this year in connection
with olosed banks was $8,472.81.
While we expect to recover some of
this expense we are unable to state what the proportion is likely to
be.

The operations of the branch for 1922 in rnoet departeeiits
show a considerable increase in volume and as the number of peoole
employed has not increased and there were many c a .t ^ s , credit must
be given the Officers and ernfloyees of the branch for the improve
ment indicated
The branch was last examined by the Controller on
May 13, 1922 and was also ex.air.inea under date of July 15 by the
Federal Reserve Examinero.
An examination was scheduled in November
by the Controller but due to illness'and a conference called by the
Federal Reserve Board, the two weeks necessary to cover the branch
could not be arranged before the close of the year.
This matter will
have attention just as soon as the present pressure of work eases.
luring the past year there were many changes in personnel
especially for the last six months.
it has been difficult to obtain
competent employees at Helena and during the year we had 55 resigna
tions and releases.
While some of the new comers remained but a
short time* the constant shifting prevented a high degree of ef
ficiency being reached.
At the present time Mr. Towle is the only
person remaining of the force originally sent from Minneapolis office.
s'
A large portion of the changes have come in transit work and in
order to afford the branoh relief, in November we notified all other
Federal Reserve Banks, with the exception of San Francisco, to route
Montana items throu^i us.
These items are forwarded direot to
Montana banks by us and the branoh is saved the handling of about 3500
checks daily.
Average number of cheoks handled daily in 1922 was 9711
in comparison with 8925 in 1921.
Items paid for the Government nearly
doubled during the year, the balance of the gain being country checks
as no change took place in number of clearing house checks.
HBLEKA HRAKCH
(Continued )
Collection handling increased in greater proportion tnan
at 1'inneapolis, 25,911 items being received compared to lr
,%647 ce
ceived in 1921 o
Shipments of currency and coin to Montana bsnirs increased
6? per cent during 1922, the total number of currency shipment?
being 2526 and of coin 543.
Of these shipments 692 were to non-
member banks on request of member banks.
..;17,700,000 against
650,000 in 1921c
Total amount of shipments
Ifotes of other Federal Re
serve Banks returned during the year amounted to ■'.S,SS0,000 and of
this amount $1,260,000 represented notes of Ban Francisco district.
Holdings of discounts on December 31, 1922 were $4,174,000 which
was a reduction of $3,853,000 from the amount carried at the close
of 1921,
A total of $28,370,000 represented by 14,316 items was
handled for member banks.
In number of items this was 5300 less tha
in 1921 and in amount $29,560,000 less.
It should be noted that the
paper of all closed banks in Montana is turned over to Minneapolis
for handling and all expense of collection is paid and recorded at
Minneapolis,
particulars of the expense of the 15 Montana banks
carried on Deoember 31, are given on separate sheet elsewhere in thi
report.
Total earnings at Helena were $274,000 less than in 1921,
while expenses were #15,000 lower.
As the branch operated only
eleven months in 1921, the reduced expenses would be approximately
$30,000 for a full year.
If, however, the closed bank expense of
Montana banks was included, no such saving could be reported.
ffisijgT O s m
Foundations for our new building were completed daring the
winter of 1921-1922.
Contracts for tto auperstructure war® let early
in June 1922 and work progressed rapidly until aidsuamer, when, owing
to tha ooal and railroad atrikea, delivery of steel from the mills vat
greatly delayed.
We had expected that the frame would be erected b r
a
the last of December, but because of the above delays, and not beoause
of the fault of any contractor, it will probably be February 1, before
the steel work is all in place.
She contractors are preparing to re
sume work when spring opens and the completion of the building
oarried forward as rapidly as possible*
It would seem unlikely how
ever, that it would be ready for occupancy before the spring of 1924.
Qua of the most competent vault engineers in the country
has been selected to make plans for vaults, upon which he is now at
work.
Owing to the special design of the building, which affords in
itself unusual protection, it will not be necessary for us to invest
in the vaults at large an amount as would otherwise be the case*
nevertheless* their size and strength will be ample*
Planning of the vaults has been delayed as long as possible
in order that we might take advantage of tha scientific study and test
ing which has been going on during the past two years.
Carafal study is being given to the laying out of floors so
that tha practical work of the bank can be earried on with the utmost
efficiency.
It is planned to eliminate so far as possible all parti
tion walls and separate tha different departments either by aisles or
balustrades so as the volume of work in different departments increases
or diminishes tha needed adjustment can be easily and quickly made*
Shis la especially desirable in the case of a Federal Be serve Sank
owing to the peculiar nature of Fiscal Agency operations, the volume of
labor in connection with which fluctuates greatly from time to time.
It would seem that we were fortunate in letting our contracts
^han we did as m are advised by people who are in position to know
that were we to ask for bids today there would undoubtedly be a con
siderable advance in the cost.
TOHMITURE & BOTl^MENT
Total purchases of furniture and office equipment which includes
cancellation machinery have amounted to $252,690 10 since the opening of the
bank.

latter expense will not be duplicated in our new building as the telephone
system will be taken with as.
An effort has been made to hold down purchases unless absolutely
necessary and the total of $24,629.60 compares favorably with ;£>?,36S.10 in
1921 and £100,816<>40 in 1920o Until we are able to obtain a capable mechanic
and find space to install a work room, our replacement expenses and mainte
nance costs will be considerable.
All furniture and equipment purchased for
the War Finance Department conforms in design and finish with that of the
bank and will be taken over by us at a reasonable price when the War Finance
work is completed.
While furniture prices have fallen somewhat during the year, we
hare not written down our values on the older furniture to the same extent
as in former years for the reason that our present figures are quite moder
ate.
On our machinery however, the value is shown by the amount the makers
will allow as determined by the age of each machine.
The valuation placed on equipment in main bank building at
Minneapolis is $49,088.45 and in Annex $39,830,40.

OUS3BEOT FUIOTIOI'S
Conditions changed somewhat during 1922, our second year
of Sub-Treasury operations.
Most of our difficulties were overcoae
during 1921 and the handling of currency and coin in the past year has
bean smoothly and efficiently done
Dae to the enormous volume of war
savings certificates sent in for redemption in the last sixty days, we
have been forced to store over $500,000. in snail bills in the vaults
at the Metropolitan Fational Bask.;
fbe using of our tellers on War
Savings work "has & I 30 thrown us behind in our money sortingo
The trend
of currency and coin was outward an- rhile we received $20,000,000 less
i
in shipments than during 1921, we shipped $17,000,000. more to member and
nor-member banksG
In number of shipments to country banks our total was
11,020 compared to 7,403 in 192l0 There was considerable demand-locally
and from oountry banks for silver and minor coin, causing us to bring
several hundred thousand dollars from the other sub-treasuries and mints,
whereas, in 1921 we had received from our district banks and shipped to
the mints in excess of $1 , 500c000e
FEDERAL RESERVE KOCTS
The total Federal Reserve note circulation expanded $35,552,000
during 1922 and of this amount our expansion was $2,165,000 and at no
ttoa during the year until December was reaohed did we have a greater
amount outstanding than on December 31, 1921.
Botes to the amount of
$43,360,000 were withdrawn from the Agent during the year and of this total
$34,060,000 were new M l l s 0 While we issued nearly $5,000,000 more of
new bills than in 1921, this was necessary due to shortage of fit-for-use
bills of the smaller denominations.
On December 30 the Agent had on
$1,055,000 in fit-for-use notes and of this amount $400,000 consisted of
$1000 bills,
Notes were destroyed to the amount of $32,784,000 and of this
amount $18,315,000 was forwarded to Washington from this office

The

This is unusual and may meat
that money withdrawn from circulation in the past years has been brought
into use again•
Gold holdings of the Agent have increased £29*£>90*000 during
t e year and at the same time paper with the Agent eligible as security
h?
for note issues is $26*400*000 lower than at the close of 1921^
'S'fcile
this automatically increases the gold reserve in the Agent s hands, the
gold and Federal Reserve notes are in .Joint custody and reserve is
calculated against Federal Reserve Rotes and deposits combined
Stock of our notes on hand at Washington on December 30,
1922 amounted to $86*820,000 on which all costs except shipping charges
to Minneapolis have been paid*
In addition, there is being printed the
amount of #19*760*000 which will give us #106,580,000 availablec
As
our normal needs should not exceed $45,000,000 yearly» the asnount held
At Washi ' :tor. added to the supply carried by our Agent would be suffi
cient for two and one-half yearsc
If necessary to further curtail
expenses, printing of our notes might be stopped for at least a year
without danger.
During the year we set aside each month #4000 to cover es
timated costs of printing notes.
The total amount reserved #48,000
was within $158.85 of the amount actually expended.
Redemption expense
is being provided for by setting aside $1000 monthly for this purpose.

One year ago we had Bank note circulation outstanding to the
amount of #4,322,200, whereas during the final week of 1922 our
liability for circulation of this class was wiped out through the re
tirement of our special 2 per cent Certificates.
The coining of stan
dard silver dollars has enabled the Treasury Department to issue silver
certificate* and retire the bank note circulation.
During the year we
received #1,304,000 in new notes and the total shipped to us slnoe this
circulation was put out on September 20, 1918 was #23,932,000,
amount #21,954,000 has been destroyed at Washington*
Of this
While there are
notes in circulation to the amount of #1,978,000, the Treasury Depart
ment has a Retirement Fond of this amount and our liability has ceased®
Taxes on circulation for 1922 were $14,250.35.
This amount
has been reserved but we will have some additional redemption expense to
meet In connection with notes still outstanding*
This expense as well
as similar expense for redemption of Federal Reserve notes is provided
for by our setting aside #1000o monthly.

DISCOUET OreTA'?!*
It will be noted on the accompanying table that
while there was little change in tke nan,ber of banks yeing our fa
cilities during the past three years, the number of items received
and the total amount had wide changes
During the aontfca of May and
Jane number of items and volume increased over the previous three
months, but fell off again for the balance of the year*
The increased
number of failed banka and the many over extended banv.s not only gave
additional oonoern to oar Executive Officers, but called for very
careful handling of the items and records by our employees ;
The drop in Items handled from 109,195 is 1921 to 4 7 ,953
in 1S22 does not sean a corresponding falling off in labor urder
present circumstances
We have, however, reduced the number of em
ployees on Discount work from 20 to 12 during the year which represents
a salary saving of <'916-00 per month.
Employees of the Discount De
partment are giving assistance when possible on other works
The mult-
iple ticket plan for recording .transactions continues to give complete
satisfaction and will admit of considerable expansion without adding
to our present foroec

TRANSIT Oi-5PAglOKS
After making a marked iiu^roveinent In lt- over 1920. the
21
Transit Dej.arteent continued to bring uj efficiency during' 1922 making
very favorable comparisons- with 1921;,
The number of employees fluc
tuated very little from January to December.
lr* 1S2I the average number
of persons employed on transit work was 157, while in 1S22 this average
dropped to 125,
In January 19 as the daily average of items handled was
64,651 by 126 people, while in December 1922, 128 people handled a daily
average of 91,817 items.
Daring; the year many changes were raade in per*
sonnel of transit der.artrr.ent, a number of the older employees beinr
placed in other de; artsients or released and their places filled by lov/er
salaried ez^loyees ,
Consequently we were handling 4^ per cent more iter;;s
in December than in January, v,ith a monthly reduction of #600. in pay
roll
In making comparisons of various classes of work, we find a
bout the same percentage of clearing items missent for the two years,
also that our Clearing Division is about on a par with the Clearings in
the other large banks as far as errors are concerned
In sending items
to out of town banks we had 00 per cent less missent items than in 1921
and this in the face of an improvement in 1921 of 75 per oent over 1920.
Another big saving in labor was the large decrease in missorts between
the various sections within the Transit Department, the namber missorted
being out in half.
As the mishandling of items counts heavily against
an employee in the efficiency rating and consequent salary adjustment,
this improvement is natural.
It is noticeable that during the last quar
ter of 1922 there was an increase of items missent over the earlier
months of the year,
This is without doubt, caused by the sudden expan
sion in volume thereby throwing a heavier load on the younger operators
than they oould efficiently handle,
in December, for instance, the
average number of items handled per person was 781 against a daily
average for the year 1922 of 674 and for 1921 of 559.
43
All items on Montana points outside of Helena from Federal
Reserve districts other than San Francisco, are now forwarded to
Minneapolis.
This is an assistance to the branch where employees are
difficult to obtain, and may be handled here with little additional
expense.
In number of items handled dravm on the Treasurer of the
United States, there was little change, but the amount was consider
ably greater.
In 1921 we handled 543,685 for •.75,226,000 and during
the past year we paid 548,791 items drawn on the Treasurer for
$116,753,000.
The daily average of all items handled in 1922 was
83,280 and in 1921, 79,956.
The following tables give details and,
comparisons with previous years.

STEKOSRAPHIO BBFARCMEMf
•I? i£ Department was comparatively new at the time of the last
a 5
aafcual report tut sufficient ti^e had elapsed to s ~ c it apparent the
aa
centralizing; of the stenographic work in one department had many advan
tages over the former custom of assigning the work to certain indi
viduals.
After the girls got over trying to cake a record and settled
down to normal conditions, it was found the work could readily be
handled' by fewer people and a shorter working day.
While at the end of December there was little change in num
ber of stenographers from 1921, there had been a heavy expansion in
work*
Our War Finance Department has grown so rapidly that the time of
five stenographers is necessary, while work in other departments of the
bank increased materially„
Although this new work enabled as to charge
the expense of five stenographers to War Finance work, we were able to
assume these duties without additional help, thereby saving the bank
the salaries of these persons.
Although it was anticipated that tha organization of a cen
tral stenographic force would be benefioial, it is now apparent that
certain definite advantages have been derived from this action*
Some
of these are as follows:

She girls are given broader experience.
The work is divided more evenly.
it is easier to handle the work when a girl is absent.
Peak loads, are handled more easily.
She same volume of work, is turned out in a shorter
wozicing day.
It is easier to standardize methods of handling the work.
Unnecessary duplication of equipment is reduoed to a
minimum.
Supervision and inspection are centralized, and thus made
more efficient and economical.
A fair comparison of quality and volume of work done by
various individuals is more easily made.
Complete rotation of work and Department meetings make
it possible to assist dictators in improving their
diction according to standards of modern letterwriting*

* "Number in Department" includes special messenger for department and Miss Hake.
In
figaring "Adjusted Average", the work of Miss Hake, who is a blind girl, is deducted.
While the clerical work performed by members of the stenographic department makes it
rather difficult to obtain comparisons as a whole we estimate a reduction of about
four people over one year ago and a salary saving of approximately #800
per month.

EMPLOYEES
Beginning in January 1922, the Controller’ s Department has com
piled monthly, certain personnel figures whioh are submitted to the operating
officialso
These figures have been of material aasistanoe in the ensuring of
punctuality on the part of employees, determining departments with ezoess help,
and those needing assistance*
For the information of the Directors, we attaoh figures for loTember.
Owing to the extra work entailed by the Redemption of Var Savings Certificates,
we are not able to submit figures for December and the year*
In arriving at the Standard hours of work, we use 46 hours a week
Although the male employees outnumber the
(8 hours daily and 6 hours Saturday)*
female by approximately 60 per oent, salaries involved in absences on the part
of the m8les, axe about one-half that of females*
The salaries involved in absences are approximately 5 per oent of the
clerical payroll for 1922,
The percentage naturally varies among departments
and with the number of female employees*
For the Transit Department the figures
are 2*3 per cent, for the stenographic 5 per cent, for the Discount 4 per oent
and for the Collection 2 per oent*

COMMITTEE T
EOOFO?!Y AND BFFICIE: Cl
'itfc a view to coordinating the activities of the
twelve Federal Reserve Banks, the Federal Reserve Board in 1921
anointed a Committee on Economy and Efficiency which includes two
members of tfc Federal reserve Boardo
e
This Comsiittee called a meet
ing of representatives of the v&rioue Federal Beserve Barks at
Chicago in April, where a tentative plan was adopted.
Each Federal
Reserve Bank has a local CoitKiiitee on Efficiency and Economy*
This
Committee in our Bank is ccir.posei of Messrs^ Dunlop, Moore and Warren
The first practical result of the Board’ s Committee on
Efficiency and Econo?Ay« was the adoption of a uniform Functional re
port of expense and volvms of work handledo
This re.ort was first put
tentatively into effect as of June, but was made compulsory on July 1,
1922*
Monthly each Federal Reserve Bank submits a detailed report
of its expenses and volume of work handled, divided into seventeen
functions with various divisions*
These reports are studied by the Federal Reserve Board's
Coramittee on Efficiency and Economy and a combined comparative report
prepared and sent to the Federal Reserve Agent for use of the Senior
Officersc
A quarterly report is also submitted^
At a Conference of the Board's Coianittee and the Chairman
of the local Comnittees on Efficiency held in Chicago in Deoember, some
modifioations were made in the reports to be submitted during 19230
In the past when information has been requested for means
of making comparisons with other Federal Reserve Banks, we have found
no two banks submit figures uniformly.
The first procedure of the
prevent Ceamlttee en Eoonoqy and Efficiency, has been to get up a
manual stating what items of expense shall appear under eaoh function
and how the item oomprising volume are to be obtained
These reports will undoubtedly prove of great value to the
looal Committees in enabling them to detexmine in which bank each
function appears to be handled most effiolently and economically.

The Committee has taken another step,in dividing into
groups of four, to enable oloser ^tudy of the wore important
functions, those banks having similar or nearl;/ similar conditions»
The functions to receive attention first will be. Discount, Account
ing, Currency and Transit
In Minneapolis - have experienced considerable diffi
m
culty in compiling the figures requested*
Our organization is
small in numbers comparatively speaking and often two or more officers
are devoting part of their time to the same function..
In sorse
functions we have to determine the time given to the function by
four different officers to arrive at the costa
The salaries of the
officers oust be distributed to 14 expense functions and the salaries
of employees over 86 expense units0
In order to obtain the best results and admit of truer
comparisons, the Federal Reserve Banks should have their organization
charts follow functional lineso
Considerable difficulty has been experienced in train
ing the employees to conform to the neoessary regulations to enable
us to get accurate figures,,
Bach expense item must he carefully
analysed before being distributed*
We have found that it takes one
man about two hours a day to make this distribution.
The posting of
the distribution has increased the work of the general ledger to
such an extent that we have been unable to reorganise this division
of our work and cut down the employees.
A study of the comparative reports of all Federal Re
serve Banks shows that Minneapolis ranks among the leaders in low
costs and high efficiencyo
During the coming year it is hoped
to remedy the weaker spots and by the close of 1923 we should rank
in every department with the best of the other Federal Reserve Banks*

AUDITING 3 x
3S ‘ABgMBST
In the first half of 19ZZ there was perceptible improvement
month by month in the morale of the Auditing Department.
Daring the
last half of the year the Auditing Department has not functioned as
efficiently as your Controller desires.
This v;as due partly to illness
in the department, shortage of corr^etent senior men and additional
duties undertaken without expann?on of personnel.
At tiie last examination, the Federal Beserve Examiners re
commended the addition of at least one senior man.
This recommenda
tion was complied with., tut due to siiortageain other departments it was
necessary to have our men assifted to other work.
At present there are
11 clerics regularly assigned to audit work, under supervision of the
Controller's Departments
Uhtil late in 1922 there was no increase In the actual num
ber of Auditing Department employees even though the work had increased
materially in some departments and three persons were required on the
Audit of V/ar Finance iflfo k
r.
The sudden development in Fiscal Agency
work has made necessary two additions to the Department and further
help may be required temporarily?,
Of the IS members of the Auditing
Department, there are at present only 7 on bank pay roll.
During the vacation period the Auditing Department was call
ed upon to do relief work and at one time four men were filling operat
ing posts.
During December auditing work fell behind, practically the
whole department doing operating to help remove the War Savings con
gestion.
We have worked out a set of standards and have placed the
requirements for each grade in the hands of every member.
audit cleric can qualify for the next higher
Until an
post, no recommendation
for increase of salary is made.
A general outline of the auditing procedure was written up
and given to each member of the department.
Before an audit is under
taken, the general plan is discussed and written assignments made of
A t j p m m iau- 3 TKEMT (Continued)
A
duties to the various members,
After the audit is completed each mem
ber turns in a report of his aseignraeEt.
These reports are collated
and a general report of the audit made through the Controller to the
Executive Committee with a copy riven to the Officer in charge of the
department.
The members of the department are rotated on the routine and
daily work.
At present we have at least two people available for
every post
Ultimately every member will be familiar with every post.
As audit clerks are not always received with enthusiasm, es
pecial emphasis is laid on the necessity of avoiding controversies
with other employees of the bank.
Audit clerics are instructed under
no circumstances to argue with clerks in other departments but to refer
disputed matter; to the department head or Controller for adjustment.
It is hoped by these instructions to remove ill feeling and antagonism
towards the Auditing Department and increase efficiency.
Employees are encouraged to take up special courses which
will aid them in their daily work.
At present every male employee
but one is studying one or more 01 the following:
Auditing, Accounting,
Commercial law, Negotiable Instruments, The Alexander Hamilton Course, and
the American Institute of Banking Courses.

in 19S1 and this includes Bond Department purchases, which up to
July 1, 1921, had been assumed by the Treasury Department*
Bids are
required on all printing unless the job is a very sm ll one, sad the
work is given the lowest bidder.
On only a few articles are-we now
able to get the Government discount, but as we buy in quantities and
are not tied to customers like the commercial banks, we are in a
position to force close price-.
If necessary we go outside for cer
tain supplies and on a number of things are able to purchase lower
than can the Minneapolis supply houses.
H M 20XJIPMSST
In ITovember an order was given for three Ellis Adding
Machines for use on Beturn Items, the Federal Reserve Books and the
Government Transcript Divisions.
These machines are a combination
typewriter and adding machine and have proven their merit in other
Federal Reserve Banks.
The Federal Beserve Bank of Chicago after
several years use, has found their flexibility so advantageous that
they have replaced all their Burroughs equipment with the Ellis
Machine^
We are satisfied good results will be obtained on the work
mentioned and will also try the Ellis machines on our letters to
other Federal Reserve Banks.
It has been our practice to trade in our adding machines
at the end of five years, but as soon as we are able to provide a
suitable mechanic and work room, it will be recommended that we hold
our equipment indefinitely.
The machinery if properly looked after,
will be worth much more to us than the trade-in value.
61
FILES
In November 1921 an expert was secured to make an analysis
and survey of our files and filing system.
Careful study of the re
port received was made by the Controller and Committee on Bconomy and
Efficiency.
Many of tiie recommendations have been put into effect and
there has been a noted improvement in General Piling conditions.
In
place of each department maintaining its own files, consolidation has
been effected, cutting down from 90 places where a letter might be
filed to less than a dozen.
Credit is due to Mis?
'ankins for improved conditions.
She
was given su|jervision over all bank files after her return in June,
1S22, from a course of study at the Illinois School of F ilin g
Re
vised methods put into effect have cut the cost of supplies about 50$,
speeded up the service and obviated much of the former criticism and
complaint made by the staff.
Miss Jenkins expects to start oross indexing all Board and
Treasury Department circulars by subjects and topics as soon as the
1 ftr Savings Redemption filing is oaugit up*
The need for this sub
ject classification has been apparent for several years but it has not
been possible to provide it prior to this time.
The old hit and miss method of obtaining letters from files
has been abolished and a visible follow up instituted, which has
lessened the chances of lost letters and fixed the responsibility for
returning borrowed material on the person taking same.
By the close of 192S we hope to have a single place for re
ference to all correspondence .to, from and about a bank..,
We have as
far as practical, established a centralization of responsibility for
.
the condition of all files.
Our files are rractic H y uniform so that
62
FILES (Continued)
similar material is filed by the same standards.
Economy in labor
oost has been achieved within the department when one takes into con
sideration the cost to the bank one year ago and now*
While it has
been necessary for the War Finance Department to maintain separate
files the equipment was purchased to conform with that of the bank as
it will no doubt be turned over to us at a fair price when the War
Finance work is completed.
STANDARDIZATION OF AOCQUMCIKO FORMS
During 1921 the Governors of the Federal Reserve Banks ajjproved the appointment of a Committee on Standardization of Forma
used between Federal Peserve Banks.
This Committee made a careful study of the various intra
bank relations and completed by 1922 a set of standard forms.
Federal Reserve Board approved the forms and all Federal Resew
The
q
Banks
have adopted the standard forme^
The adoption of standard forms has proved a great benefitsIn many forms the originating bank makes at one operation the entries
for their own books, the advice, and tickets for use of the receiving
bank.
Our experience with these standard forms has been very satis
factory
The volume of correspondence between Federal Reserve Banks
on routine matters has been materially lessened; operating has been
quickened, the v;ork of the bookkeepers lightened and efficiency in
creased

In February of this year it was determined to make arrange*

a suitable place in which to eat tham»
The bank, provided tables and
has been supplying ooffee and milk without chargeo
Many employees
promptly availed themselves of this privilege, resulting in a saving to
them it was estimated of about $10«00 a month each*
However, as many of
the employees were not living at home and so unable to bring their
lunohes it was recently decided to provide sandwiches and a few other
things* which ware purchased outside and supplied to the employees at
actual cost*
The Lunch Boon service is greatly appreciated and at the
present time an average of about 275 are talcing advantage of its facil

flax Finance Department
On December 31, 1921, we had made advances for account of the
War Finance Corporation to 497 applicants.
These advances totaled
$12,650,000, and were secured by 10,563 pieces of collateral having a
face value of #18,750,000.
T p to the close of 1922 a total of 6242 advances and re
J
newals had been handled at Minneapolis and Helena .nd the total amount
of advances was $57,755,000.
The total amount of repayments during
this period was #15,897,000. leaving the amount due the War Finance
Corporation on December 30, 1922, ^41^858,000.
The face value of col
lateral held at end of year was §66,120,000.
While the amount advanced gives some idea of the work in
volved, the fact that in e*eess of 120,000 individual pieces were
handled during the year, shows more clearly the volume.
It is neces
sary to handle these items three times irrespective of the writing up
of the multiple ticket which constitutes our records and the filing of
these items in the Collateral division.
Two and one-half times as many
items were handled by the War Finance Department as were handled by the
Discount Department.
Apart from the handling of negotiable collateral in the bank
Collateral Department, all other War Finance collateral is handled by
the Custody Division of the War Finance Department.
The Department
also has its own Collection Division as the nature of the collections
and the necessity for frequent reference to the records made it ap
parent this work could not be handled in our regular Collection Depart
ment.
In October there were approximately 35,000 notes cut for collec
tion, practically all of whioh were past due.
By segregation of the
War Finance 9fcrk, we are better able to obtain efficiency and also
watch operating expenses*
The Accounting methods adopted in War Finance work have
proven quite satisfactory from all angles.
The system keeps only live
items in our records and as we must furnish detailed information to
89
War Finance offioes at Washington as well as to the local Agency on
all transactions, fonaer methods would have been inadequate and ex
pensive.
There is added value to the plan of operation due tothe
fact that we are frequently called upon to furnish the war Finance
Corporation additional information and are able to do so with a
minimum of work.
ff virtually do all the bookkeeping for both the
le
looal Agency and the Washington offioes, it being necessary for them
to maintain only the oontrols.
Credit is dne Ur. Moore for the smoothness of operation,
the Wbr Finance Auditor stating that although the volume handled at
Minneapolis is many times greater than that handled at other points,
the Minneapolis Department is the most efficient.
In October we commenced handling advances to the Borth
Dakota Grain Growers Association, followed in November by advances to
the Montana Grain Growers Association.
Shis has added to our account
ing upwards of 30,000 Individual transactions which are handled some
what similar to the collateral notes*
On December 31, 1921 this Department had 12 employees and
on December 30, 1922 the foroe consisted of one officer and 50 em
ployees.
The total expense to the War Finance Corporation for the
handling of their work by us since the beginning has been $87,828*48
at Minneapolis and $14,016.17 at Helena.
Ur to the olose of 1922 we had collected for the Ifer
Finance Corporation at
interest, the amount of £1,830,468.73;
. Accrued interest on unmatured said past due bills payable is estimated
at £730,000
The total .expense of operation incurred at Minneapolis
and Helena of #101,848,65 would seem very reasonable.

(Continued)
Apparently our troubles ara no greater than those of the
other Federal Reserve Bankso
The branch not being in a position
to ta&e care of the Montana redemptions* Postmasters of that State
were requested to forward all certificates direct to Minneapolis.
The Chicago ban* is about ten days behind in handling redemptions
and in order to help out* we are, at the request of the Treasury
Department* taxing over the redemptions forwarded by first and
second class Postmasters in the State of Wisconsin?
This v/or'« will
be handled by a special force in quarters provided at the Minneapolis
Post Office.
!£ anxiety of the Treasury Department to avoid criti

give this assistance* for which we will be reimbursed.
