FEDERAL RESERVE BANK
OF DALLAS

Dallas, Texas, January 11, 1937

To the Member Bank Addressed:
We have been advised by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco
that effective January 18, 1937, the entire territory now being served by
its Spokane Branch, except the city of Spokane, will be incorporated in the
territory served by its Seattle Branch. The territory now being served by
the Spokane Branch includes the eastern part of the state of Washington
and the northern part of the state of Idaho.
The Spokane Branch will continue to handle mail and telegraphic
transfers to and from Spokane banks, and cash items and non-cash items
payable in the city of Spokane. All transfers and all cash and non-cash
items payable in the territory being transferred to Seattle will thereafter
be handled by the Seattle Branch.
All transactions which are pending at the close of business January
16, 1937, will be completed through the Spokane Branch. It will be ap­
preciated if you will forward to the Seattle Branch any cash items or col­
lection items payable at points located in the Spokane territory outside of
the city of Spokane, which normally would reach Spokane on or after
January 18, 1937. Cash items and collection items payable in the city of
Spokane should, of course, be sent to the Spokane Branch as heretofore.
We have also been advised by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Fran­
cisco that effective January 18, 1937, the towns of Klamath Falls, Lakeview and Merrill, Oregon, which are now being served by the San Francisco
Head Office, will be transferred to its Portland Branch and that thereafter
the entire state of Oregon will be served by the Portland Branch.
Yours very truly,
b. a

President
