FEDERAL RESERVE BANK
OF NEW YORK

Circular No. 13181
December 8, 1933J

INFORMATION IN CONNECTION WITH APPLICATIONS
UNDER SECTION 32 OF THE BANKING ACT OF 1933

To all Member Banks in the
Second Federal Reserve District;

With our Circular No. 1302 dated October 31, 1933, we transmitted a copy of the
Federal Reserve Board's Regulation R, Series of 1933, with reference to "Relationships
with Dealers in Securities under Section 32 of the Banking Act of 1933." This circular
indicates the procedure to be followed, and the forms to be used, in making applications
under Section 32 of the Banking Act of 1933 for permits of the Federal Reserve Board
covering relationships coming within the prohibitions of that section.
We have recently been advised by the Federal Reserve Board that there appears to be
some likelihood that the answers to questions numbered 1 and 4 on F.R.B. Form 99c (Statement of Dealer in Securities) will not be given in sufficient detail to permit the Board to
determine
(1) whether or not the business of the dealer in securities customarily includes the
underwriting, flotation and distribution of securities or participations in such transactions,
and
(2) whether the customary business dealings between the member bank and the dealer
involve securities in the underwriting, flotation or distribution of which the dealer has been
interested.

Since the Board has requested that it be advised fully with regard to these questions
in each application submitted under Section 32, we suggest that you bring these matters
to the attention of any of your officers or directors who may submit such applications.




J. H. CASE,

Federal Reserve Agent.
