ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

To the M em ber Banks in the
Eleventh Federal Reserve District:

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, 1955:
Class A director — Mr. J. Edd McLaughlin
President, Security State Bank & Trust Company
Ralls, Texas
Class B director — Mr. J. B. Thomas
President and General M an age r and Director
Texas Electric Service Company, Fort Worth, Texas
Vice President and Director, Texas Utilities Company
Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas
The Class A director will be elected by banks in Group 3, and the Class B director, by banks in Group
1. The banks in Group 2 do not elect a director this year. In accordance with the announcement contained in
the circular letter of July 21, 1954, Group 1 consists of banks with capital and surplus of $1,200,000 and
over; Group 2 consists of banks with capital and surplus of over $ 2 00 ,000 and less than $1,200,000; and
Group 3 consists of banks with capital and surplus of $200 ,000 and less. Lists of banks comprising Groups
1 and 3 are given on the following pages.
Each bank in Group 1 is permitted to nominate a candidate for Class B director, and each bank in
Group 3, a candidate for Class A director. The nomination must be made by resolution of the member
bank's Board of Directors, and a certified copy of the resolution must be forwarded in time to reach me
on or before October 28, 1955. A form for this purpose is enclosed. O n or about November 4, 1955, 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 7, 1955, and close at 2:00 P.M. on November
22, 1955. The ballots must be executed during that period and be mailed so as to reach me before the
closing of the polls. O n 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. O n the following pages are shown the titles of
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 author­
ization should do so by resolution of its Board of Directors and certify the appointments to me before the
polls close. A form is enclosed which may be used for either purpose. W hen an authorization is made, it is
preferable that designations should be by title.
W hile the banks in Group 2 will not participate in this election, this circular is sent to them, without
forms, for their information.
Yours very truly,
ROBERT J. SMITH
Chairman of the Board
