Federal

Reserve

Bank

OF DALLAS

Dallas, Texas, May 18, 1942

To the Addressee:

There is enclosed, a new specimen form of the Statement of Borrower
which the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has pre­
scribed for the use of lenders pursuant to the provisions of Sections 6(d)
and 7 (d) of Regulation W as revised effective May 6, 1942. The new speci­
men form, which has been designated as Form F. R. 564-a, is a revision of
the present Form F. R. 564.
The forms for actual use by lending Registrants will not be supplied by
the Board or by this bank but should be printed or otherwise reproduced
by Registrants or obtained by them from stationery or supply houses. The
notice at the top of the form indicates the restrictions on reproduction.
The Board of Governors has advised that until July 31, 1942, a Regis­
trant may at his option continue to use the old Form F. R. 564, provided
that Question 2 thereof is deleted and the word “instalment” is deleted from
Question 3. The reason for this permission is to minimize the wastage of
old forms by any Registrants having large supplies.
Any inquiry relating to this form should be addressed to the Federal
Reserve Bank of Dallas or to one of its branches at Houston, San Antonio
and El Paso.

Yours very truly,
R. R. GILBERT
President

Articles may be added to or taken from the list at any time. In determining whether an article involved in a loan is
a "Listed Article” a borrower may be guided by information furnished by the lender, and Registrants must keep them­
selves informed as to changes in these "Listed Articles” .

WARNING
Regulation W provides that no borrower shall willfully make any material misstatement or omission in his
Statement. The law under which the President’s Executive Order was issued reads in part: "W hoever willfully
violates any of the provisions of this subdivision or of any license, order, rule or regulation issued thereunder,
shall, upon conviction, be fined not more than $10,000, or, if a natural person, may be imprisoned for not more
than ten years, or both; and any officer, director, or agent of any corporation who knowingly participates in such
violation may be punished by a like fjne, imprisonment, or both.”

N O T I C E T O L E N D E R .—T he lender, acting in good faith, may rely upon the statements made by the borrower in
answer to the questions on this form. However, this form does not provide all of the information that it may be
necessary for the lender to have if he intends to avail himself of certain provisions of Regulation W . In any case
as to which the lender must obtain additional information in order to be protected in making the particular loan under
consideration, the facts themselves will govern. This, however, does not affect the right of the lender to rely upon
statements of fact obtained from the borrower pursuant to applicable provisions of the Regulation.
