BEARDSLEY BTJML, Chairman of the Board. ••Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, reads in part as follows: "Class A shall consist of three members, who shall be chosen by and be representative of the stock-holding banks. . . . No officer or director of a member bank shall be eligible to serve as a class A director unless nominated and elected by banks which are members of the same group as the member bank of which he is an officer or director. "Any person who is an officer or director of more than one member bank shall not be eligible for nomination as a class A director except by banks in the same group as the bank having the largest aggregate resources of any of those of which such person is an officer or director." "Class B shall consist of three members, who at the time of their election shall be actively engaged in their district in commerce, agriculture or some other industrial pursuit. . . . No director of class B shall be an officer, director, or employee of any bank." "No Senator or Eepresentative in Congress shall be a member of the Board of Governors of the Federal Beserve System or an officer or a director of a Federal reserve bank." In a resolution adopted December 23, 1915, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System expressed the opinion "that persons holding political or public office in the service of the United States, or of any State, territory, county, district, political subdivision, or municipality thereof, or acting as members of political party committees, cannot consistently with the spirit and underlying principles of the Federal Reserve Act, serve as directors or officers of Federal Reserve Banks." On December 28, 1915, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System resolved that "national bank examiners shall not hereafter be elected • • • to directorships in Federal Reserve Banks." Under date of July 2, 1925, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System advised it had "reached the conclusion that a person whose sole occupation is that of officer of an insurance company is not eligible for election as a Class B director of a Federal Reserve Bank", and on October 18, 1939, the Board advised "that a person whose sole occupation is that of president of a Federal savings and loan association and who has been serving as a class A director is not now eligible for election and service as a class B director". 1941 Election of Directors List of 270 Member Banks in Group 2 Revised to September 25, 1941 Group 2 consists of member banks with capital and surplus of more than $300,000 and less than $10,000,000 CONNECTICUT Name of Bank or Trust Company Place Bridgeport Bridgeport Danbury Danbury Greenwich Norwalk Stamford Officers Authorized to Cast Vote The First National Bank and Trust Company of Bridgeport The West Side Bank City National Bank & Trust Company of Danbury The Danbury National Bank First National Bank in Greenwich The National Bank of Norwalk The First-Stamford National Bank and Trust Company President, any Vice President, or Cashier President, President, President, President, President, or Cashier any Vice President, any Vice President, any Vice President, any Vice President, or or or or Cashier Cashier Cashier Cashier NEW J E E S E Y Asbury Park Bayonne Belleville Bloomfield Bound Brook Caldwell Clifton Closter Dover Dover East Orange Elizabeth Elizabeth Elizabeth Englewood Flemington Hackensack Hackensack Hackensack Hackensack Harrison Harrison Irvington Jersey City Jersey City Jersey City Kearny Linden Maplewood Millburn Montclair Asbury Park National Bank and Trust Company .
