FEDERAL RESERVE BANK
OF NEW YORK
["Circular No. 811~|
|_October 8, 3927.J

Election of Directors
To the Member Banks in District No. 2:

An election will be held under the provisions of Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act to choose
successors to the following directors of this bank whose terms expire December 31, 1927: Class A director,
DELMEB RUNKLE, President, Peoples National Bank, Hoosick Falls, New York, and Class B director,
SAMUEL W. REYBURN, President, Associated Dry Goods Corporation and Lord & Taylor, New York.
Both directors were elected by banks in Group 3 and their successors will be chosen by this group.
The banks in Groups 1 and 2 do not elect directors this year.
Group 1 consists of banks having capital and surplus in excess of $1,999,000.
Group 2 consists of banks having capital and surplus not exceeding $1,999,000 and not below $201,000.
Group 3 consists of banks having capital and surplus below $201,000. (Listed on Page 2).
Each bank in Group 3 is permitted to nominate a candidate for Class A director and a candidate for
Class B director.* The nomination must be made by resolution of the board of directors and certified to
me on or before November 10, 1927. A form for this purpose is enclosed. On November 12, 1927, a list of
the candidates (indicating by whom nominated) and a preferential ballot will be mailed to each bank in the
group mentioned. The ballot must be cast within 15 days after receipt. The polls will open on November 15
and close at 3 p.m. on December 1, 1927. At that time the ballot box will be opened in the Board room of
this bank, the votes counted, and results of the election announced. Any of the candidates is invited to
be present or represented on that occasion.
In order to be counted, the ballot must be executed by the officer authorized to cast the vote. On thp
following pages are given the names of officers heretofore designated for this purpose. Inasmuch as the
authority conferred on these officers continues until revoked, they need not be reappointed. Each bank
that has not designated such an officer, or any bank that desires to change its authorization, should do so
by resolution of its board of directors and certify the appointment to me before the polls close. A form
for this purpose is furnished herewith.
While the banks in Groups 1 and 2 will not vote in this election, this circular is sent to them without
forms for their information.
Respectfully,
GATES W. MCGABRAH,

Chairman of the Board.
* Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act provides that ' ' Class A shall consist of three members, who shall be chosen
by and be representative of the stockholding bunks. . . 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 membcT
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 employe
of any bank."
"No Senator or Eepresentative in Congress shall be a member of the Federal Reserve Board or an officer or a
director of a Federal Reserve Bank."
In a resolution adopted December 23, 1915, the Federal Reserve Board 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 apirit
and underlying principles of the Federal Reserve Act, serve as directors or officers of Federal Reserve Banks.'' OD
December 28, 1915, the Federal Reserve Board resolved that "national bank examiners shall not hereafter be elected • • •
to directorships in Federal Reserve Banks." Under date of July 2, 1925, the Federal Reserve Board advised it has "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."
