1084 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN CHANGES IN THE NUMBER OF NATIONAL AND STATE BANKS 1921-1936 During the years 1921-1936 the number of national and State banks 1 in operation decreased by 14,238, from 29,206 at the beginning of 1921 to 14,968 at the end of 1936. The number of national banks decreased during the 16-year period from 8,124 to 5,325, or by 2,799, and the number of State banks decreased from 21,082 to 9,643, or by 11,439. The net decrease of 14,238 during the period 1921-1936 in the number of operating national and State banks is accounted for principally by the suspension of 14,344 banks, the consolidation, merger, or absorption of 6,852 banks, and the liquidation of 1,141 banks. The decreases were offset in part by the organization of 4,601 new banks during the period, the reopening of 1,905 suspended banks, and the licensing and reopening of 1,233 banks which were not granted licenses by June 30, 1933 and were counted as suspensions in 1933. Of the 4,601 new banks which were organized 2 during the period, 1,437 were national banks and 3,164 were State banks. The number of national banks discontinued through consolidation, merger or absorption during the period was 2,054 and the number of State banks thus discontinued was 4,798. The 14,344 suspensions in the 16-year period comprised 2,719 national banks and 11,625 State banks. There were conversions of 617 State banks into national banks and 254 conversions of national banks into State banks during the 16-year period. The tabulations that follow analyze changes in the number of national banks and State banks during 1921-1936 by years and by States. The various classifications of changes in the number of banks are defined in the following paragraphs. A primary organization represents the chartering of a newly organized bank. A primary organization can usually be distinguished without difficulty from a consolidation, merger, absorption, succession or conversion of a going bank, in spite of the fact that any of these transactions may require the issuance of a new charter, but it is frequently difficult to distinguish from a reopening. The 1 Exclusive of mutual savings and private banks. See also note following Table 3. 2 These figures exclude new banks organized to succeed operating banks ; for the years 1933-1936, however, they include new banks organized to succeed unlicensed national and State banks. NOVEMBER 1937 DURING extent to which the stockholding interests, assets and deposits of a suspended bank continued intact was the important factor in determining whether to classify the bank as a primary organization or a reopening. For the years 1933-1936, however, the figures of primary organizations include all new banks organized to succeed unlicensed national and State banks, because it was not practicable to determine from available information the extent to which the stockholding interests, assets and deposits of the unlicensed banks continued intact in the new bank. If a suspended national bank reopened as a State bank, or vice versa, it was considered a primary organization and not a reopening. A new bank chartered to succeed an operating bank was not counted as a primary organization. A conversion constitutes the issuance to an active bank of a national charter to supersede a State charter under which it has previously been operating, or of a State charter to supersede a national charter. In other words, a charter in one system is given up and a charter in another system is procured. A conversion from a private bank constitutes the issuance of a national or State charter to an existing private bank. A conversion to a private bank constitutes the surrender by an incorporated national or State bank of its charter and continuance of its business as an unincorporated enterprise. Only simple conversions looking towards permanent operation under the newly issued charter and involving no other change in status were included in this category. Some conversions are effected merely as a necessary legal step in a consolidation, merger, or absorption, the new charter being surrendered shortly after the conversion. In such cases a conversion was not regarded as having occurred but rather a consolidation, merger or absorption, with the exception that if the temporary bank's existence ran over the end of the calendar year it was considered as a conversion in the year in which it occurred and as a consolidation, merger or absorption in the year following. This was necessary in order to make the status of changes agree, insofar as practicable, with the number of banks shown in year-end abstracts of condition reports. NOVEMBER 1937 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN A reopening of a suspended bank (other than an unlicensed bank) constitutes the resumption of operations by a bank which had previously suspended. The reopening may be accompanied by a change of name and the issuance of a new charter and still be classed as a reopening rather than as a primary organization. For the years 1933-1936, however, all new banks organized to succeed unlicensed national and State banks have been classed as primary organizations rather than as reopenings, because it was not practicable to determine from available information the extent to which the stockholding interests, assets and deposits of the unlicensed bank continued intact in the new bank. A reopening under a single charter of two or more suspended banks was classed as a single reopening. In cases where a national bank reopened as a State bank, or vice versa, the transaction was counted as a primary organization and not as a reopening. A reopening of an unlicensed bank constitutes the resumption of operations by a bank which had not been granted a license to reopen following the banking holiday (in March 1933) by June 30, 1933. Unlicensed banks which were granted licenses to reopen between March 15 and June 30, 1933, have not been included in the tabulations (either as suspensions or reopenings). All banks not granted licenses to, reopen by June 30, 1933, have been included among suspensions, and any of such banks which subsequently were granted licenses to reopen have been considered as reopenings of unlicensed banks. A suspension constitutes the closing of a bank to the public, either temporarily or permanently, by supervisory authorities or by the bank's board of directors on account of financial difficulties, whether on a so-called moratorium basis or otherwise, unless the closing was under a special holiday declared by civil authorities. If a bank closed under a special holiday declared by civil authorities and remained closed only during such holiday or part thereof, it has not been counted as a suspension. Banks which, without actually closing, obtained agreements from depositors to waive a portion of their deposits or to defer the withdrawal of a portion of their deposits have not been classed as suspensions. Banks which were reopened or taken over by other institutions after suspension have been included as suspensions. The figures for 1933 include all banks not granted 1085 licenses following the banking holiday in March 1933 which were subsequently placed in liquidation or receivership (including unlicensed banks absorbed or succeeded by other banks), and all other unlicensed banks which had not been granted licenses to reopen by June 30, 1933. A consolidation, merger or absorption represents the corporate union of two or more going banks into one bank which continues under a single charter, whether new or old. The term is used not in a legal or technical sense but in an economic sense, the essential factor being that the business of two or more going banks becomes concentrated under one charter and one management. Banks absorbed by other banks and converted into branches have been counted as consolidations, mergers or absorptions. This classification also includes cases in which a given bank was absorbed by two or more banks which distributed its business among themselves and cases in which the assets and liabilities of a weak bank were transferred to another bank in order to avoid suspension. The figures shown for this classification represent the number of banks that went out of existence or were converted into branches by reason of consolidations, mergers or absorptions, i. e., the continuing or absorbing banks are not counted. A voluntary liquidation constitutes the voluntary discontinuance of operations and the surrender of its charter by an active bank. Voluntary liquidations legally incidental to conversions or consolidations, mergers or absorptions have not been counted separately as liquidations but have been included among conversions or among consolidations, mergers or absorptions. If a bank transferred its assets, or the greater portion of them, to another bank under an agreement whereby the latter assumed the liabilities of the former, the change was classified as a consolidation, merger or absorption, not as a liquidation. Unclassified changes include all cases in which, because of lack of essential data or because of special circumstances involved in the change, it was impossible to classify the change under any of the headings shown in the tables. In order that the increases and decreases might be reconciled with the actual net increase or decrease during the period in the number of banks, minor differences not accounted for were shown as "Unclassified." The number of "Unclassified" changes was 1086 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN larger in 1933 than in any other year as a result of the numerous and, in some cases, involved changes in the status of banks, also because of the temporary disruption of the reporting services following the banking holiday. The number of "Unclassified" changes is very small, however, in relation to the num- NOVEMBER 1937 ber of other types of changes and in relation to the net reduction of more than 14,000 banks during the 16-year period 1921-1936, which the tabulations were designed to analyze. All unclassified changes occurred with respect to State banks and none with respect to national banks. 1087 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN NOVEMBER 1937 TABLE 1.—CHANGES IN THE NUMBER OP NATIONAL AND STATE BANKS DURING 1921-1936 Total 19211936 1924 1923 1922 1921 1929 1928 1927 1926 1925 1931 1930 1932 1933 1934 1935 1936 Number of active national and state banks at beginning of year or period _ _ ._ 29, 206 29, 206 29,018 28,820 28,396 27, 724 27, 223 26, 280 25, 468 24,703 23,695 21,877 19,149 17, 578 14, 352 15, 243 15,161 Increases: Primary organizations1 Conversions from private banks _ - 4,601 472 409 458 383 403 345 296 252 235 153 105 93 323 511 101 306 60 46 49 27 22 14 18 15 9 6 2 7 11 7 9 4 1,905 93 118 68 108 81 160 127 53 69 155 275 279 150 116 40 13 1,233 165 7 5 5 1 5 12 2 3 2 13 547 97 636 4 47 9 3 8,210 629 580 580 523 507 524 453 322 316 316 392 1,128 1,270 206 82 14, 344 461 343 623 738 579 924 636 479 628 1,292 2,213 1,416 3,891 6,852 1,141 305 48 394 35 329 51 373 80 363 59 462 75 567 57 534 71 636 57 769 68 20 91 1 1 3 2 2 2 5 4 2 2 3 2 1 1 2 1 4 Total decreases .__ _ 22, 448 817 Reopenings of suspended banks1 __ Reopenings (licensing) of unlicensed1 b a n k s 1 Unclassified Total increases-Decreases: Suspensions Consolidations, mergers, and absorptions Voluntary liquidations x___ Conversions to private banks Unclassified * 382 798 99 433 101 322 89 4 9 52 778 1,004 1,195 1,008 1,467 1,265 1,087 1,324 2,134 3,110 1,963 4,354 62 44 34 43 231 104 160 91 176 56 3 379 288 275 -14,238 - 1 8 8 - 1 9 8 - 4 2 4 - 6 7 2 - 5 0 1 - 9 4 3 - 8 1 2 - 7 6 5 - 1 , 008 - 1 , 818 ~2, 728 - 1 , 571 -3, 226 +891 - 8 2 - 1 9 3 N e t increase or decrease N u m b e r of active national and state banks at end of year or period __ 14,968 29,018 28,820 28,396 27, 724 27, 223 26, 280 25,468 24,703 23, 695 21, 877 19,149 17, 578 14, 352 15, 243 15,161 14,968 1 See footnotes appended to the respective captions in tables 2 and 3.

The number of State nonmember banks licensed between March 15 (the last day of the banking holiday) and April 12 is not available. 4 For general statement regarding "unclassified" changes, see paragraph under that heading on page 1085. s Includes 15 Morris Plan and industrial banks in New York and 29 in North Carolina, some cr all of whic' ;vhich were in operation in prior years but could not be included in the figures shown for earlier years because of lack of essential data. • Includes 324 banks suspended January 1-March 4, 35 banks placed in receivership during the banking holiday (March 6 to 15), 160 licensed banks suspended March 16-December 31, and 2,271 unlicensed banks treated as suspensions following the banking holiday. The last figure comprises 1,187 unlicensed banks which were placed in liquidation or receivership, 1,074 unlicensed banks which were not granted licenses to reopen until subsequent to June 30, 1933, and 10 banks which had neither been placed in liquidation or receivership nor had been licensed to reopen by December 31, 1936. 7 Except unlicensed banks placed in "voluntary" liquidation. NOTE.—The number of State banks in operation as shown in this analysis differs somewhat from the number included in compilations regularly published by the Board under the heading "All banks in the United States" (see table on page 1133 of this FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN). The differences are due principally to the exclusion from this analysis and the inclusion in the "All bank" compilations of the following classes of financial institutions which were included in State abstracts of condition reports and, consequently, in the "All bank" figures compiled therefrom: (a) mutual savings banks, (b) private banks under State supervision or reporting to State banking departments, (c) a few banks which had been absorbed by other banks or otherwise placed in liquidation but were still included in State banking department abstracts, and (d) a few banks operating under restrictions. To some extent also the differences are due to the fact that one or more State banking departments did not make a call for condition reports as of the end of the year, making it necessary to include an abstract as of a prior call date. The available information as to bank changes covering the earlier years made it impossible to effect an exact reconcilement with the State banking abstracts. The "All bank" compilations published by the Board showed 21,326 State banking institutions of all kinds at the end of 1923, the first time such compilations were made by the Board, and 10,347 (revised to include 44 Morris Plan and industrial banks in New York and North Carolina) at the end of 1936, compared with 20,217 and 9,643 State banks shown in this table. The differences of 1,109 and 704, respectively, represent principally mutual savings banks, which declined from 630 to 565 during the 13-year period 1923-1936, and private banks reporting to State banking departments which declined from approximately 460 to 134 during the same period. The differences between the number of State banks on December 31,1935 as shown in this analysis and the total number of non-national banks of all classes as of the same date shown in table 1 on page 782 of the August 1937 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN are due to the exclusion from this analysis and the inclusion in the table referred to of (a) 567 mutual savings banks, (b) 234 private banks, (c) 1 State operated bank in North Dakota, and (d) 1 Deposit -Insurance National bank in Pennsylvania authorized to accept deposits. While this analysis might have been changed so as to agree exactly either with the latest published "All bank" figures or with thefigurespublished on page 782 of the August 1937 BULLETIN, the available information would not permit an exact reconcilement to be made for earlier years. The differences referred to are of relatively minor importance, however, and do not appreciably affect the value of the tabulations, the primary purpose of which is to account statistically for the net reduction of more than 14,000 banks during the 16-year period 1921-1936, rather than to show the number of banks in operation at the beginning and end of each year. 1089 FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN NOVEMBER 1937 TABLE 4.—CHANGES IN THE NUMBER OF NATIONAL BANKS DURING 1921-1936, BY STATES1 Total 19211936 1921 1922 1923 1924 1925 1926 1927 1928 1929 1930 1931 1932 1933 1934 1935 1936 ALABAMA Total increases Decreases: Suspensions Consolidations, mergers, and absorptions..
