FEDERAL RESERVE BANK

C A N C E L L A T IO N O F C IR C U L A R DATED A P R IL 4 , 1 9 2 7
Ta Member Banks of the Eleventh Federal
Reserve District Located in the State of New Mexico:
Repeal of Law requiring certification to the Secretary of State of the
filing of chattel mortgages covering “migratory chattels.”

Under date of April 4, 1927, we addressed a circular to our member
banks in New Mexico calling their attention to Sections 4 and 5 of Chapter
25 of the 1925 Laws of New Mexico, relative to so-called “migratory chat­
tels.” Attention was directed to the fact that under the provisions of the Act
mentioned, in order to be effective against subsequent parties, it was neces­
sary that certification be made to the Secretary of State that chattel mort­
gages upon neat cattle, sheep and motor vehicles had been filed in the office
of the proper County Clerk, and member banks in New Mexico were accord­
ingly requested to furnish us with certified copies of such certificates in
connection with notes offered to us for rediscount or as collateral.
We are advised that, effective June 7, 1929, Section 4 of the Act men­
tioned has been amended and Section 5 thereof repealed, making it unneces­
sary to certify to the Secretary of State the filing of mortgages on chattels
heretofore mentioned. Our circular of April 4, 1927, is therefore revoked
and it will no longer be necessary to furnish us with copies of such cer­
tifications.
The foregoing of course has no reference to the filing of chattel mort­
gages with County Clerks and, as heretofore, chattel mortgage notes of­
fered to us for rediscount or as collateral should be accompanied by copies
of the mortgages with Clerk’s certificate of filing.
Yours very truly,

Governor.
