ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

To the M em ber Banks o f the
Eleventh Federal Reserve Districts
An election will be held under the provisions of Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act to choose successors to
the following directors of this bank whose terms expire December 31, 1953:
Class A director - Mr. W. L. Peterson, President
The State National Bank
Denison, Texas
Class B director - Mr. W. F. Beall, President and General Manager
3 Beall Brothers 3, Department Stores
Jacksonville, Texas
The Class A director will be elected by banks in Group 2, and the Class B director, by banks in Group 3. The
banks in Group 1 do not elect a director this year. In accordance with the announcement contained in my circular
letter of September 13, 1949, Group 1 consists of banks with capital and surplus of $650,000 and over; Group 2
consists of banks with capital and surplus of over $150,000 and less than $650,000; and Group 3 consists of banks
with capital and surplus of $150,000 and less. Lists of banks comprising Groups 2 and 3 are given on the following
pages.
Each bank in Group 2 is permitted to nominate a candidate for Class A director, and each bank in Group 3,
a candidate for Class B director. The nomination must be made by resolution of the member bank’s Board of
Directors, and a certified copy o f the resolution must be forwarded in time to reach me on or before October 30,
1953. A form for this purpose is enclosed. On or about November 6, 1953, a list of the candidates with the names
of the nominating banks and a preferential ballot will be mailed to each bank in the voting groups. The polls will
open on November 9, 1953, and close at 2:00 p.m. on November 24, 1953. The ballots must be executed during
that period and be mailed so as to reach me before the closing of the polls. On the last day of the voting period,
the ballot box will be opened in the Board Room of this bank, the votes counted, and the results of the election
announced. The candidates will be invited to be present or represented on that occasion.
In order to be counted, a ballot must be executed by an officer authorized by resolution of the member bank’s
Board of Directors to cast the vote for that bank. On the following pages are shown the titles o f officers heretofore
designated for that purpose. The authority conferred on them continues until revoked. Each bank that has not
designated such an officer or officers, or any bank that desires to change its authorization should do so by resolution
of its Board of Directors and certify the appointments to me before die polls close. A form is enclosed which may
be used for either purpose. When an authorization is made, it is preferable that designations should be by title.
While the banks in Group 1 will not vote in this election, this circular is sent to them, without forms, for
their information.
Yours very truly,
J. R. P arten
Chairman of the Board

representative of the member banks. No officer or director of a member bank shall be eligible to serve

The Federal Reserve Board also passed a resolution, December 28, 1915, that “ national bank
examiners shall not hereafter be elected . . . to directorships in Federal Reserve banks.”
