N o officer or director o f a member bank shall be eligible to serve as a class A director unless nom inated and elected b y banks which are members o f the same group as the member bank o f which he is an officer or director. “ A n y person w ho is an officer or director o f more than one member bank shall n ot be eligible fo r nom ination as a class A director except b y banks in the same grou p as the bank having the largest a ggregate resources o f any o f those o f which such person is an officer or director. ’ * ‘ *Class B shall consist o f three members, who at the time o f their election shall be actively engaged in their district in commerce, agriculture or some other industrial pursuit. . . . N o director o f class B shall be an officer, director, or employee o f any bank. * * “ N o Senator or Representative in Congress shall be a member o f the B oard o f Governors o f the Federal Reserve System o r an officer or a director o f 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 o f 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 A ct, serve as directors or officers of Federal Reserve Banks.” O n 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 com pany 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 1951 Election of Directors List of 435 Member Banks in Group 3 Revised to September 25, 1951 Group 3 consists of banks having capital and surplus of $400,000 and less C O N N E C T IC U T Nam e o f Bank or Trust Company Place Bethel Byram Ridgefield South Norwalk Stam ford Officers Authorized to Cast V ote The Bethel N ational B a n k ........................................
