FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF NEW YORK No. 23641 January 16, 1942J CCircular Nomination and Election of Class B Director Term Ending December 31, 1942 To Member Banks in the Second Federal Reserve District: An election will be held under the provisions of section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, to fill the vacancy, caused by the resignation of ROBERT T. STEVENS, in the office of class B director of this bank for the term ending December 31, 1942. Mr. Stevens was elected a class B director of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York by member banks in Group 3 and his successor will be chosen by this group. The member banks in Groups 1 and 2 will not participate in this election. The classification of member banks for the purpose of nomination and election of class A and B directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is as follows: Group 1 consists of banks with capital and surplus of $10,000,000 and over; Group 2, of banks with capital and surplus of more than $300,000 and less than $10,000,000; and Group 3, of banks with capital and surplus of $300,000 and less (listed on pages 3-12). Except in the case of two or more banks affiliated with the same holding company affiliate*, •Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, reads in part as follows: " . . . That whenever any two or more member banks within the same Federal reserve district are affiliated with the same holding company affiliate, participation by such member banks in any such nomination or election shall be confined to one of such banks, which may be designated for the purpose by such holding company affiliate." Accordingly, banks in Group 3 affected by the foregoing provision of the law are requested to take prompt action to have the appropriate holding company affiliate designate, if it has not already designated, one of its affiliated banks to participate in this nomination and election. each bank in Group 3 is permitted to nominate a candidate for class B director. ** The nomination should be made by resolution of the board of directors of the nominating bank and a certified copy of such resolution should be sent to me so as to reach me on or before February 17, 1942. The printed form, two copies of which are enclosed, shows the appropriate form of resolution and one copy should be used in sending a certified copy of the resolution to me. On February 18, 1942, copies of the list of candidates (indicating by whom nominated) and preferential ballots will be mailed so that, in the normal course of the mails, they will be received by all banks in Group 3 on February 19, 1942. The law provides that the ballot shall be cast within 15 days after receipt of this list. The polls will open on February 19, 1942, and will close at 12 o'clock noon on Friday, March 6, 1942. Upon the closing of the polls the ballot box will be opened in the board room of this bank, the votes counted and checked by tellers, and the result of the election announced. The candidates will be invited to be present or represented on that occasion. In order to be counted as valid, the ballot must be executed by an officer authorized to cast the vote and must be received by me at or before the time thus fixed for the closing of the polls (i.e., at or before 12 o'clock noon on Friday, March 6,1942). The list on the following pages shows the officers heretofore designated for this purpose by the respective banks in Group 3. The banks in Groups 1 and 2 will not participate in this election, and this circular is sent to them without forms for their information only. BEAEDSLEY RUML, Chairman of the Board. ** Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, reads in part as follows: "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 ^Representative in Congress shall be a member of the Board of Governors of the Federal Eeserve 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". 2 1942 Election of Class B Director Term Ending December 31, 1942 List of 504 Member Banks in Group 3 Revised to January 14, 1942 Group 3 consists of member banks with capital and surplus of $300,000 and less CONNECTICUT Bethel East Port Chester New Canaan Eidgefield South Norwalk Springdale Officers Authorized to Cast Vote Name of Bank or Trust Company Place The Bethel National Bank The Byram National Bank of East Port Chester (P. 0., Port Chester, N.
