Stability in the Labor Market
NONFARM EMPLOYMENT has changed
little from the new high it reached in July.
This stability contrasts with a sizable increase in the first half of the year. Private
nonfarm employment was a little lower in
October than in July. In the public sector
State and local government employment
continued to grow rapidly.
In manufacturing, employment has been
reduced since midyear, although it has been
maintained in the automobile and defenserelated industries in which demands are
strong. Employers have tended to follow
cautious hiring policies and also have taken
care of variations in their short-term needs
for labor by adjusting the length of the
workweek. In October the workweek still
averaged more than 40 hours, but it was
down significantly from its spring high.
Both the labor force and unemployment
have fluctuated irregularly during the year.
In October, after allowance for seasonal
influences, the unemployed represented 5.5
per cent of the labor force. This rate was
within the narrow range that has prevailed
all year.
In the cyclical upswing from the low in
February 1961, periods of sharp gains in
nonfarm employment have alternated with
periods of little change, or decline. Over
the whole interval, employment has risen
less than it had in the comparable period
of earlier postwar expansions.
Growth in the labor force since the prerecession high in economic activity in the
spring of 1960 has been less than had been
officially projected. Over the same period the
gain in employment has been even smaller




than that in the labor force. As in the
two preceding upswings, employment in industrial activities has not regained its preceding cyclical high. Unemployment has
remained at a higher level than in other
postwar cyclical expansions.
The annual increase in average hourly
earnings in manufacturing has been smaller

since 1960 than in earlier years and smaller
than the gain in output per manhour. Average labor costs per unit of output—including added fringe benefits—are apparently
no higher today than in 1959.
CHANGES IN EMPLOYMENT

Since midyear, declines in employment in
industrial activities, particularly manufac-

1385

1386

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

turing, have been about offset by increases
elsewhere.
In October, seasonally adjusted manufacturing employment totaled 16.8 million,
about the same as in September but 130,000
below the June level, as small but widespread declines were reported in both durable and nondurable goods lines. An important exception is the automobile industry where both output and employment have
been at high levels. In primary metals, employment was down 10 per cent from its
April high, as steel output declined sharply
following negotiation of labor-management
contracts.
In other industrial activities—mining,
construction, transportation, and public
utilities—employment has been stable or
down slightly. In nonindustrial activities,
employment in government and in private
services has continued to expand, but in
trade it has changed little.
Changes since cyclical high in 1960. Nonfarm employment in October, at 55.6 million, was about 1 million larger, after seasonal adjustment, than at the preceding
cyclical high in the spring of 1960. This
was a smaller gain than in the comparable
period of earlier postwar cycles. Furthermore, a continued downward trend from
cycle to cycle in employment in some industrial activities has resulted in the displacement of a large number of unskilled and
semiskilled older workers.
As compared with the preceding cyclical
high in May 1960, employment in October
was up 850,000 in government, 500,000 in
service activities, about 150,000 in finance,
and a similar number in trade. Despite substantial cyclical recovery, manufacturing employment was down 200,000. In construction, mining, and transportation, in which
employment declined a total of 330,000
during the recession, there has been a fur-




ther loss of 90,000 in the current recovery
period.
Manufacturing. In each of the past three
cyclical expansions, manufacturing employment has failed to return to its prerecession
level. Such employment is now about 1 million below the postwar high in 1953. A
decline of almost 2 million, or 15 per cent,
in the number of production workers has
been only partly offset by an increase of
850,000 in employment of nonproduction
workers. Over the same period manufacturing output has risen 25 per cent. In the
current expansion, however, the short-fall in
employment from the preceding peak has
been considerably less than in earlier cycles.
In comparison with levels of early 1960,
reductions in manufacturing employment
have been concentrated in durable goods
lines. Employment in October was down
most in primary metals. Here the reduction
of 150,000 was much larger than in each of
the preceding two cycles. Expanded defense
requirements and strong demand for cars
have resulted in higher levels of employment
in the electrical machinery, ordnance, and
transportation equipment industries. In other
durable goods industries reductions have
generally been small.
Although consumer expenditures for nondurable goods have risen fairly steadily, employment in these industries in October was
about the same as in early 1960. A small
decline during the recession was followed
by a corresponding increase.
In contrast with employment, the average workweek in manufacturing has fluctuated cyclically around a horizontal trend. In
October, the seasonally adjusted workweek
was 40.1 hours, about as high as at the comparable stage of the previous cycle. Overtime
hours have been at advanced levels in recent
months. The average factory workweek has

1387

STABILITY IN THE LABOR MARKET

been declining, however, and in October
was 0.7 of an hour below its April high.
Maintenance of a relatively long workweek in the face of a stable-to-weak labor
market suggests that many employers prefer
to pay overtime wages rather than add new
workers. This choice reflects the cost of
fringe and other benefits that accrue to new
employees and the provisions in some recent
labor-management contracts for supplementary payments to many employees who work
less than a 40-hour week.

Nonmanufacturing activities. In activities

such as construction, transportation, and
raining, employment has declined somewhat
further in this cyclical expansion. For these
groups taken as a whole the loss of employment since the spring of 1960 has been
sharper than it was in earlier cycles.
In the expanding trade and service activities employment gains have been smaller
than in most previous postwar cyclical expansions. The slowdown has been more
pronounced in trade than in services. In
retail trade new merchandising techniques
have been introduced rapidly to meet competitive conditions. Although productivity
data in trade are difficult to interpret, there
is some evidence of more rapid gains recently than earlier in the postwar period.
Needs for education, health, and other
services continue to put pressure on State
and local governments, and employment
there has increased nearly 740,500 since
May 1960. After several years of little
growth, Federal Government employment
increased by 120,000 between early 1961
and October 1962.

ferential rates of productivity gain. Services
and Government have employed a growing
proportion of all employees; together these
activities now account for 36 per cent of
nonfarm employment compared with 30 per
cent in 1956. The proportion in trade, about
20 per cent, has shown little change in recent
years. Industrial activities have employed a
declining proportion. The number of workers on farms has continued its long-run
decline.
The ratio of white collar to blue collar
workers has risen almost without interruption in recent years. Demands for professional and managerial workers continue
strong. A record number of persons are now
employed in this group, and they continue
to account for a growing proportion of all
jobs. Employment of clerical personnel has
also risen sharply over the past 6 years.
Among sales workers, increases in employment have been relatively moderate. Salaried employees in manufacturing have continued to increase in both number and relative importance, but not so rapidly as
earlier.
One effect of the increased demand for
white collar workers has been that employment of adult women, both full-time and
part-time, has risen faster than that of adult
men. Women account for three-fifths of the
total gain in nonfarm employment in the last
6 years, and they now hold more than onethird of all nonfarm jobs. The sharpest increase has been among women 35 to 64
years of age.
UNEMPLOYMENT

Fewer persons were unemployed in October, after allowance for seasonal influences,
than in any month last year, but more than
in earlier postwar expansion periods. The
October figure was 4 million. Unemployment was 5.5 per cent of the civilian labor

force; the range this year has been from
5.3 to 5.8 per cent.
In October 1.8 million persons, or more
than two-fifths of the unemployed, had been
looking for jobs for only a short time—less
than 5 weeks. The number in this group
has been relatively high throughout the
year.
Long-term unemployment has tended to
increase in recent years. About 1 million persons, one-fourth of all the unemployed, had
been looking for work at least 15 weeks. This
was 200,000 more than before the recession
and double the number in 1956. This group
of the unemployed showed a rapid cyclical
decline in the second half of 1961, but the
number has changed little this year, after allowance for seasonal influences.
Unskilled, semiskilled, and inexperienced
workers account for more than half of the
long-term unemployed. Most of the ex-

1389

STABILITY IN THE LABOR MARKET

perienced workers in this group had previously been engaged in industries that have
been curtailing their work forces. Once they
lose their jobs, these workers tend to remain
unemployed for long periods unless their
skills and education are in demand in activities with expanding employment. In contrast, employment of managerial, professional, and other white collar workers has
continued to increase, and this group accounts for a small proportion of the longterm unemployed.
Unemployment has remained high among
youths. Many of these have dropped out of
school before graduating. Insufficient education and lack of experience have contributed to their difficulty in finding jobs in the
current labor market. Of all the unemployed
about 800,000 persons, or one-fifth, are
teen-aged youths.
Unemployment rates have been higher
for adult women than for men, as shown in

the chart. Women now account for nearly
two-fifths of all the unemployed as compared
with one-third in April-May of 1960. The
high female unemployment rate apparently
reflects the continued large inflow of women
into the labor market at a time when job
opportunities for them have been expanding
less rapidly than earlier.
Unemployment is a persistent and severe
problem in many major labor market areas.
But the number of areas with substantial
labor surplus—that is, with unemployment
rates of 6 per cent or more—has declined
this year. In September, 44 of the 150 major
labor market areas were in this category.
This was less than half as many as in the
spring of 1961 but more than in early 1960.
Unemployment has remained high in steel
producing centers and in some other areas
with a heavy concentration of durable goods
industries and mining.
A number of measures have been adopted
to alleviate unemployment. The Area Redevelopment Act of 1961 provides assistance to depressed areas, largely in the form
of loans and grants for industrial development. The Manpower Development Act of
1962 provides for training or retraining to
help unemployed workers obtain jobs in expanding activities. The Public Works Act
of 1962 provides $400 million for public
works in areas with high unemployment.
LABOR FORCE

In the first 10 months of 1962, the total
labor force averaged 74.8 million persons,
600,000 more than in the corresponding
period of 1961 (after allowance for the introduction of 1960 Census data into the
estimating procedure in April 1962). The
armed services and the civilian labor force
each rose by 300,000. The increase in the
total was considerably smaller than the projected growth of about 1.1 million.

1390

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

The number of workers added to the
labor force since 1956 has averaged about
700,000 per year. Over this period the labor
force participation rate (proportion of population age 14 or over in the labor force)
has been declining, in contrast to the rise
earlier in the postwar period. The estimated
participation rate this year is 57.5 per cent
compared with 59.3 per cent in 1956.

NOTE.—Bureau of Labor Statistics data. The participation rate
is total labor force as a per cent of the noninstitutional population 14 years of age or over.

Among male teenagers and older workers
participation rates have declined much more
sharply than had been anticipated. In most
other age-sex groups, increases in labor
force rates have also been smaller, or reductions greater, than had been projected
for the period.
The slower labor force growth in recent
years reflects a combination of economic,
social, and demographic forces. Higher
levels of unemployment and fewer job opportunities have been important in limiting
growth of the labor force, as is suggested
by the decline in the over-all participation




rate. Another factor is that demands for
labor have been strongest in those occupations which require extensive education,
and some youths have remained in school
longer and thus delayed their entrance into
the labor force. Furthermore, with the rapid
expansion and liberalization of retirement
programs, many older workers may have
withdrawn from the labor force earlier than
expected.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics recently
revised its projections of the labor force to
take into account data from the 1960 Census of population and changes in trends of
participation rates by age-sex groups. The
labor force is now expected to increase 12.6
million in the 1960's rather than 13.5 million as estimated earlier.
Because the actual 1962 level is below
the new projection, an average annual increase of 1.4 million workers over the next
3 years will be necessary if the labor force
is to reach the 78.9 million now projected
for 1965. Whether it expands this fast will
depend in large part on whether the economy provides job opportunities for the
growing number of potential workers.
LABOR INCOME

The rate of increase in hourly wages has continued to slow in recent years, as the chart
on page 1391 shows. Excess industrial
capacity and heightened competition in
product markets have intensified producer
attempts to minimize costs. Meanwhile,
easier conditions in labor markets, especially
among semiskilled factory workers, have
tended to weaken bargaining positions of
the unions. Moreover, pressure for wage
increases from rising prices has greatly diminished, and automatic wage gains based
on increases in consumer prices have been
smaller than in earlier years.

1391

STABILITY IN THE LABOR MARKET

Total wages and salaries in October were
about 5 per cent higher than a year earlier.
Such income has changed little since midyear, however, because of the leveling off
in employment and a shorter workweek in
manufacturing.
Manufacturing. Manufacturing workers on
the average earned $2.40 per hour in October. This was slightly more than at the beginning of the year and was 2.6 per cent
above October 1961. Labor contracts
negotiated this year tended to provide
smaller increases than obtained in earlier
contracts; in some instances, contracts did
not provide for any increase in wage rates.
In addition, fewer workers have received
deferred wage increases under long-term
contracts than in previous years.
In consequence, in those industries in
which contracts have been negotiated this
year—such as steel, aluminum, and lumber
—wage gains have been less than the average for all factory workers. On the other
hand, in the auto, rubber, and fabricated
metals industries, where deferred wage increases were negotiated before 1962, increases have been above average.
During the recovery of 1961 weekly earnings rose somewhat more than hourly earnings as the workweek lengthened and overtime and other premium payments increased
the amount of take-home pay. In recent
months weekly earnings have been relatively
stable. In October they were $96.72, 2.3 per
cent higher than a year earlier.
Increases in weekly earnings over the past
year have been largest in fabricated metals;
machinery; transportation equipment; stone,
clay, and glass; and food. Smaller than average increases were typical in nondurable
goods industries. In primary metals average
weekly earnings were smaller than last year
because of a shorter workweek and no
change in wage rates.




After allowance for price changes, the
average annual increase in weekly earnings
in manufacturing has been over 2 per cent
a year since 1960. This is a larger gain in
purchasing power than in preceding years

when both wage rates and consumer prices
were rising more rapidly.
Productivity gains in manufacturing have
been somewhat in excess of wage increases.
Hence, labor costs per unit of output, including an estimate for changes in fringe benefits,
declined in 1961 and 1962 and are probably no higher now than in 1959. These
changes in wages and productivity have considerably reduced earlier pressure of labor
costs on prices.
Nonmanufacturing. Wage gains in non-

manufacturing activities have also tended to
be smaller in recent years than earlier. But

1392

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

over the past year average hourly earnings in
most nonmanufacturing industries for which
data are available have risen slightly more
than in manufacturing.
Increases have been largest in the construction, retail trade, and communications
industries. Average weekly earnings in retail
trade have not gone up so rapidly as hourly
earnings because of a larger proportion of
part-time workers.
A two-phase pay increase has recently
been enacted for Federal civilian employees.
The first phase was effective in October; the
second will become effective January 1,
1964. The annual cost of the first phase is
estimated at $650 million; after the second
phase becomes effective, the total annual
cost is estimated at about $1 billion. Postal
service employees were granted increases of
8.6 per cent this autumn and another 2.6 per
cent will be effective in 1964. For classified
employees the increases average 5.6 and
4.1 per cent. Larger than average increases
were given to the middle and higher salary
grades to make their pay more nearly comparable with private industry.
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING

This year unions again have tended to put
major emphasis on job security rather than
on wage gains. They have demanded special
contract arrangements, shorter workweeks,




earlier retirement, and other means to maintain jobs.
In the steel industry, contract negotiations started early and were concluded by
the end of March, 3 months before the contract expiration date. The agreement provided for no wage increase in the first year
and it did not include a cost of living escalator clause, but it does permit a reopening
on wage rates upon 90 days notice after
May 1,1963. The union will be free to strike
if no agreement is reached.
The steel agreement liberalized pension,
insurance, and supplemental unemployment
benefits and seniority provisions. It also provided for a new fund to be financed by employer contributions of 3 cents per manhour. This fund is to be used to encourage
workers to retire earlier and to provide for
longer vacations.
Many new contracts contain provisions
for longer vacations and earlier retirement,
with the expressed purpose of creating additional employment. The arrangement
reached by can companies and the steel
workers union included a major innovation
—13 weeks of paid vacation every 5 years
to workers with 15 years of seniority. Thus
far, efforts by unions to obtain a shorter
workweek have been generally unsuccesful. Nevertheless, the 35-hour week is still
high on union priority lists for future negotiations.

Flow of Funds Seasonally Adjusted
presents the first publication of the Federal Reserve flow of funds
system of accounts on a seasonally adjusted
basis.1 Tables similar to those published regularly without adjustment appear on pages
1508-23; the table numbers in this article
refer to those tables.
A major purpose of the flow of funds system, discussed more fully in the 1959 presentation of unadjusted accounts, is to provide a framework for relating financialmarket developments on the one hand to
production, income, consumption, saving,
and capital formation on the other. Until
now few of the major series on financial
flows have been available in seasonally adjusted form, however, and the large intraTHIS BULLETIN

1
Structure and uses of the quarterly flow of funds
accounts are described in the August 1959 BULLETIN,
p. 828, in which the unadjusted accounts were first
published. The system has been maintained on a current basis since 1959 with BULLETIN tables and supplementary publications. The original work on this
form of accounts was done by Morris A. Copeland,
now of Cornell University, and was published in his
Study of Money flows in the United States (National
Bureau of Economic Research, New York, 1952). A
set of annual accounts developed by the Board staff
from Copeland's system was published in Flow of
Funds in the United States, 1939-1953 (Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, D.C., 1955). The quarterly accounts introduced
in 1959 represent a considerable reconstruction of the
accounts as published in 1955.

NOTE.—The seasonally adjusted flow of funds accounts have been put together by the Flow of Funds
Section of the Board's Division of Research and
Statistics under direction of Stephen Taylor, Chief.
The work has been facilitated in a number of ways
by advice and assistance of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, cooperation of the Board's computer staff,
and continuing interest in the project by M. H.
Schwartz, Assistant to the Director of the Board's
Division of Research and Statistics.




year movements characteristic of financial
flows have seriously impeded cyclical analysis of this type. Eliminating seasonal influences from the flow of funds system puts
the accounts on a basis much closer to the
principal measures of economic activity and
focuses analysis directly on cyclical aspects
of relationships.
REVIEW OF RESULTS

Some salient features of the adjusted data
are presented in the 11 charts on the next
two pages. These charts, based mainly on
the new summary tables on pages 1510 and
1512, sketch three aspects of financial flows
in the United States in recent years—the
relation of borrowing to economic activity,
sources of funds flowing into certain forms
of credit, and the relation between total borrowing and private investment in financial
assets. The charts illustrate general forms
of cyclical movements in a few summary
totals of the accounts. These movements reflect certain structural relations that were
present during the 1950's, in particular on
the supply side of credit markets, but that
are often obscured by short-run fluctuations
in financial-market flows.
Borrowing and economic activity. Total bor-

rowing by nonfinancial sectors moves closely
over the cycle with both total private investment and with changes in gross national
product, as illustrated in Chart 1. During the
last 10 years borrowing has reached peak
rates almost simultaneously with private in-

vestment, and these peaks have occurred at
cyclical stages when GNP was expanding
most rapidly rather than when GNP itself
was at peak levels. Both borrowing and investment have thus been distinctly leading
series relative to GNP during the period.2
Although the movements are closely congruent, the relation does not appear to be
based on any single force such as inventory
movement.3 In the 1955 expansion the rise
in borrowing was almost entirely in credit
flows to consumers and business. In 195859, on the other hand, Federal borrowing
contributed at least as much to the movement as private credit demand and was the
source of the large rise in borrowing at that
time relative to private investment and GNP
changes. The pattern here is thus of a simple
conformity in totals overlying a complex
and shifting structure of components. To
identify cause-and-effect relations that are
consistent both with the simplicity of the
totals and the complexity of the parts will
require intensive further study of the data.
The other charts on page 1394 present
a
The term "private" as used in flow of funds tables
and in this presentation refers to domestic nonfinancial
sectors other than the Federal Government—consumers, nonfinancial business, and State and local governments. Financial sectors are consistently excluded in
use of the term.
Private total investment in Chart 1 consists of private outlays for physical assets, net foreign investment,
and net lending to the Federal Government. Apart
from statistical discrepancies, it is equal to gross private saving and is financed by that saving either directly or through financial flows.
Total borrowing in the chart consists of net funds
raised in credit markets by all nonfinancial sectors—
private, Federal Government, and foreigners. It excludes trade credit, noncorporate equities, and miscellaneous financial flows. While no single measure of
credit flows can be isolated as an unduplicated aggregate of primary borrowing in the economy, the
total shown here appears to be a useful proxy. Content of the series is outlined in notes to the chart.

In fact the single important departure in fit occurred during the 1959 steel strike, which disturbed

no visible effect on credit demand.




several less aggregative comparisons. Within
the total of private borrowing, business demand for bank credit matches inventory
movements closely on a seasonally adjusted
basis (Chart 2 ) , more closely than in unadjusted data or for corporate and noncorporate business separately. There is evidence here of a variety of seasonal sources
of short-term funds and of interbusiness financing relations that are cleared from the
data when component series are put together
in the form shown here.
The relation between private long-term
borrowing and fixed investment is considerably less close (Chart 3). Decisions to
borrow in long-term forms are influenced
both by previous financing and by expectations on future capital needs, income, and
market conditions. These considerations introduce a flexibility into the timing of longterm borrowing that is irrelevant to the
major forms of short-term borrowing and
that makes analysis of credit demand more
complex than in short-term markets.
Deposit and security flows. Charts 4, 5,

and 6 show the flow of funds in four of the
major transaction accounts summarized in
Table 3. Chart 4 presents the sometimes
parallel and sometimes opposing movements
in consumer and business cash holdings. It
also indicates the recent increases in volatility of time deposit flows. These movements can be interpreted only as elements
of broader financial relationships discussed
below, since they combine a variety of effects of cyclical easing and tightening of
financial positions and of shifts in interestrate structure. Chart 5 illustrates the major
transfers of Government security holdings
between banks and private investors that
have characterized shifts in credit ease and
restraint in financial markets since the Treasury-Federal Reserve accord.

FLOW OF FUNDS SEASONALLY ADJUSTED

Chart 6, on flows into non-Federal securities, is interesting for its evidence on responses to sudden bursts of new flotations
such as that in the second quarter of 1961.
In several of these incidents the initial rise
appears to be absorbed by private investors
and to be followed by a reaction in the next
quarter in the form of large institutional purchases combined with sharply lower private
buying of securities. Whether these are real
or only statistical patterns needs further investigation.
Charts 4-6 can be put into economic
context most directly by relating them to
the second page of charts, which focuses
on connections between total borrowing and
private investment in financial assets—cash,
savings accounts, and securities. In terms of
the flow of funds matrix, the emphasis in this
second group is on interrelations within a
set of columns—for a sector group—rather
than the view along rows—that is, for individual markets—as in Charts 4-6.
Total credit demand and private supply of
funds. Borrowing and private financial investment, shown in Chart 7, necessarily
move closely with one another, since the
private investment total includes directly or
indirectly all of the major volatile elements
on the supply side of credit markets. It includes, for example, the flow of private
funds into bank deposits, both demand and
time, and thus reflects movements in bank
credit flows financed by such deposits. All
credit flows financed by private deposits at
financial intermediaries are transferred in
this way to the private investment total.
With intermediaries' credit flows from
deposits represented in this way, there remains a relatively small set of credit sources
other than private investment: Federal lending programs, funds supplied by foreigners,
insurance and pension reserves, and such




1397
miscellaneous sources as retained earnings
by financial institutions. As Chart 7 indicates, these sources have been either small
in the aggregate or, in the case of insurance
and pension reserves, relatively stable in
the short run. There has been thus a close
structural relation in the economy between
total credit demands and private financial
investment: any sizable shift in borrowing,
whether upward or downward, must be paralleled by a change in private flows into
financial assets, because there is no substantial alternative source of funds.
The relation, moreover, is more specific
than this since, as Chart 9 illustrates, almost
all of any large change in private investment flows occurs in liquid assets—deposits
and Federal obligations—and relatively
little in other forms of financial investment.4
While private purchases of private securities
are volatile and responsive to changes in
financial market conditions, such purchases
have been too small a part of total financial
flows to absorb any significant change in
credit demand. A high rate of borrowing,
whether private or Federal, has thus been
accompanied almost necessarily by a high
rate of growth in private liquid assets. Private investors do not have the capacity to
meet a large shift in credit demands through
investment forms other than liquid assets.
A substantial flexibility begins to appear
on the supply side of the market only in the
forms that private liquid-asset investment
takes. Chart 10 illustrates the large shifts in
liquidity flows that have occurred over the

securities have been included in the liquid asset
series in these charts to avoid the sudden movements
in the data that occur when a large issue moves from
long-term to short-term classification. Such passage of-time effects tend to dominate the data on a quarterly basis. Computations are now in process that
will yield a more stable measure of short-term Government securities; when the results are available,
they will be introduced into the accounts.

last decade among three types of assets—
cash, time deposits and savings accounts,
and U.S. Government securities. Private net
purchases of Governments have fluctuated
over a wide range throughout the last decade, reflecting primarily, as illustrated in
Chart 5, large cyclical swings in bank demand for Government securities.
These shifts into and out of Governments
have been clearly mirrored by opposite shifts
in flows into deposits. In 1954 the response
to monetary ease and bank absorption of
Government securities was a rapid growth
in private demand deposits. In recent years,
however, with yields on time deposits increasing, private investors have made increasing use of these deposits as an alternative to demand deposits for holding
liquidity balances, and during the 1958
and 1961 recessions the shift from Government securities was reflected to a large extent in time- as well as demand-deposit flows.
Over the decade the increasing cost of holding cash balances has resulted in less use of
cash as a store of value, and demand for
cash has become more specifically limited
to transactions balances.
The shift from demand to time deposits
received its sharpest impetus in the rise last
January in rates paid on bank time deposits;
the effect shows clearly in Chart 10. The
shift was probably less direct than the chart
suggests, because the data indicate some redistribution of Governments among holders
during the period (Charts 8 and 11). The
final effect, however, was on demand and
time deposits alone; neither the total liquidasset flow nor net private buying of Governments was visibly affected during the
quarter.
The structural relations between credit
demand and supply suggested by these




charts constitute a backdrop for analysis of
almost any financial developments covering entire markets. They represent only general tendencies, to be sure, and many important aspects of the relations are yet to
be brought out, particularly as to the distribution of consumer asset holdings and the
sources of consumer demand for financial
assets.
Even the rough sketch given here has implications on the nature of financial-market
behavior, however. Thus, the limited capacity demonstrated by private investors for
direct buying of private securities means
that any large movement in private demand
for credit, whether through loans, mortgages, or securities, has tended to be absorbed within a few months by financial institutions, which in turn have supplied private investors with an equivalent volume of
liquidity instruments. In times of financialmarket ease the liquidity instruments
supplied have taken the form mainly of deposit claims on the institutions themselves,
while when markets were tight they have
been mainly Government securities sold
from institutions' portfolios.
Because intermediaries tend to specialize
in different types of lending, the form in
which borrowers want to raise funds may not
match closely the preferences of institutions
with available funds. When they do not, the
process of reconciling the types of credit that
borrowers want, the type of asset that institutions prefer, and the types of liquid assets that private investors prefer can cause
temporary but widespread unsettlement in
financial markets.
Whether the structural relations indicated
by these charts will continue into the 1960's
is a question that must be faced directly
when the data are used for long-range projections of flows in financial markets. Fi-

FLOW OF FUNDS SEASONALLY ADJUSTED

nancial markets are continually evolving
systems, and in several of the charts movements in the most recent years deviate fairly
clearly from the regularities of the 1950's.
Generalizations from the past to the future
must thus be guarded and to the extent possible should be based on trends in economic
forces underlying the data rather than on the
data themselves.
SEASONAL ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES

Adjustment of the flow of funds accounts
to eliminate seasonal movements was done
in three separate steps: adjustment of the
nonfinancial accounts, adjustment of financial flows, and balance of the adjusted
matrix. Although large parts of the accounts
were initially adjusted by computer methods,
the final system of data cannot be said to
represent any single adjustment program or
procedure. This is partly because several
forms of computer program were used in
adjusting the financial accounts and partly
because the requirement that the adjusted
matrix be forced to balance required modification of individual seasonal adjustments
throughout the system to bring the data into
mutual consistency.
Nonfinancial accounts. The adjusted series
included in the table for nonfinancial accounts—income, taxes, current outlays, saving, and capital formation—are not new
data. Nonfinancial series in the unadjusted
flow of funds are all derived directly from the
unadjusted income and product accounts
published by the Department of Commerce,
and adjusting these flow of funds series consisted almost entirely of using the same derivation procedures on the seasonally adjusted Commerce Department data.
The resulting accounts thus reflect almost
exclusively the seasonal adjustments used




in the income and product accounts, recombined for the flow of funds tables. The
only important exceptions are corporate
profit tax payments (as distinguished from
accruals) and the division of business inventory into corporate and noncorporate
components. Neither series was available
from the Commerce Department, and each
was adjusted by the X-9 version of the
Census Bureau's Method II program.
Financial flows. Almost all of the financial accounts included in the seasonally adjusted system reflect new seasonal adjustments, since with one exception—consumer
instalment credit—no financial data were
available in adjusted form applicable to flow
of funds accounts. Adjustment of financial
flows raised questions that were resolved in
several ways for various parts of the accounts. Financial accounts in flow of funds
are net series that represent simultaneously
both (1) changes over a period in levels of
assets and debts and (2) gross borrowing
less debt repayments (for debts) and gross
purchases less gross liquidation of holdings
(for assets). In adjusting these accounts a
choice exists among (1) adjusting the flows
directly, (2) adjusting levels of assets and
debts and taking flows as increments in
adjusted levels, and (3) adjusting gross
flows and taking net flows as increments.
Although there are sharp conceptual differences between adjustments made on different bases, their effects in computation are
generally not large, and practical considerations tend to dominate the choice of method
used. For the present adjustment, the decision was made to adjust the net-flow data
directly.5 Since financial flows on a net basis
5

The alternative of using increments in adjusted
levels of assets and liabilities raises the problem that
when seasonal factors are allowed to shift from one
year to the next, as is common in current seasonal
adjustment procedures, increments in adjusted levels

1400

can be and frequently are negative as well
as positive, they must be adjusted additively
—by a seasonal addend—rather than by
multiplicative seasonal factors, which imply
a zero lower limit to the series being adjusted.
For the major financial accounts in the
system—those that are large and cyclically
important and that have large seasonals—
seasonal adjustments were computed by an
additive version of the Bureau of Labor Statistics adjustment procedure.6 Since these
series dominate the financial matrix as a
whole, the seasonals computed for them by
the BLS program correspondingly dominate
the adjusted tables published here.
For less important financial series additive adjustment was approximated with the
Census Bureau's Method II program—a
multiplicative program—by adding positive
constants to the series before adjustment and
deducting the constant from the adjusted
series. Extremely minor series were either
adjusted by shorthand techniques or entered in the accounts without adjustment.
Balancing the seasonally adjusted matrix.
A major problem in seasonally adjusting the
flow of funds system originates in the nature
of the system as a closed matrix of balanced
accounts. In each column of the matrix total
over any 12-month period do not equal the actual
flows that occurred during that year. This may not
be a real problem conceptually, but a requirement
that adjusted flows over a year add to actual annual
flows is useful for the flow of funds accounts in
several ways, such as in integrating financial with
nonfinancial accounts. Such a requirement has therefore been adopted and is reflected in the tables.
It has the effect of dissociating seasonally adjusted
flows from adjusted levels to some extent, but it
may be possible with further work to integrate adjusted levels and flows more closely. The third
option—adjusting gross flows—is impossible for most
series since the relevant data do not exist.

of Statistical Standards, Bureau of Labor Statistics.




sources of funds for a sector equal total
uses of funds by definition (when the statistical discrepancy is included as a use).
Simultaneously, in each row of the matrix
total purchases in a market equal total sales
in that market. This condition holds in
the unadjusted matrix and can reasonably
be demanded of the adjusted matrix as well.
The adjusted matrix, that is, should preserve internal consistency among transactions in the system, with a balanced matrix
of seasonals eliminated from all of the data
simultaneously.
Additive seasonal adjustment can in fact
preserve matrix balance, but only on the
very restrictive condition that every series
in the system be adjusted by a single standard sequence of addition and subtraction
operations.7 This would be a dubious procedure, however, since it would not permit
recognition of extreme values in series. Allowance for extremes is common to all modern adjustment procedures and is essential
to achieving reasonable results. When it is
introduced, however, the sequence of arithmetic steps is no longer identical for all
series in the system, and the adjusted matrix,
as a result, is no longer in balance.
The balance problem is important only
if the discrepancies that arise from seasonal
adjustment are sizable enough to affect analysis. Early results of the flow of funds adjustment revealed that many accounts are
not far from balance in adjusted form, particularly those that are stable cyclically and
that have only minor seasonals. There are a
number of major accounts, nevertheless—
money supply, Federal securities, business
sectors, Federal Government, and banking
—where cyclical, seasonal, and irregular influences are all large and where imbalances

1401

FLOW OF FUNDS SEASONALLY ADJUSTED

from seasonal adjustment are correspondingly serious. For these accounts some form
of internal reconciliation is necessary if market-wide analysis is to have meaning.
One balancing procedure possible is to
establish a residual entry in each row and
column to be derived from adjusted data for
all other entries in the account; the seasonality of such residuals would be whatever is required to balance the adjusted account. Such
residuals are used, and are in fact a necessity, in assembling the unadjusted accounts.
In the adjusted system, however, the use of
residuals throws away information, since
every series in the unadjusted accounts,
whether derived directly or as a residual,
has economic content and contributes some
evidence on the seasonality of the matrix
as a whole.
In order to use all such evidence, the adjusted system was brought into balance by
a procedure that forces all sector and transaction accounts (rows and columns of the
matrix) into consistency simultaneously. In
this procedure the seasonal of every cell of
the matrix is subject to some degree of modification in order to bring the structure as a
whole into balance. Such forcing does not,

in general, constitute a distortion of seasonals for the sake of balance alone. It
represents, rather, a use of information
from outside a series to refine an adjustment
originally based only on internal evidence of
the series itself. The resulting matrix of
seasonals incorporates into each cell data
from the entire system and has a probability
of having improved, on balance, the accuracy of the seasonals taken as a set.
For the tables published on pages 1508-23
of this BULLETIN, forcing of simultaneous balance was applied to a submatrix of
18 strategic accounts—10 sectors and 8
transaction categories. These accounts, together with illustrative balancing adjustments for one period, are shown in the table
below. The rest of the system consists of (1)
nonfinancial accounts that incorporate the
seasonal adjustments in income and product
data and (2) financial accounts with small
seasonal adjustment discrepancies that can
easily be eliminated residually without real
loss of accuracy.
Balancing the 10x8 submatrix consisted
of altering each of the cells of the submatrix
by an amount that helped eliminate discrepancies in seasonals in both the row and the

column in which that cell stands. To find
such amounts by trial and error throughout
the matrix for each of the 42 periods in the
flow of funds quarterly data was clearly impracticable, and some form of computed set
of adjustments was an operating necessity.
Computed distribution of discrepancies
is possible provided a rule can be established
to control the distribution. The rule used
for the present accounts was based on the
view that adjustments in the seasonals for
individual cells should be held to a minimum
for the matrix as a whole consistent with
bringing the system into balance.
The "minimum" here is relative—series
with large movements or high volatility or
both should be subject to larger adjustments
than others, since there is greater uncertainty, in dollar amounts, as to the appropriate seasonal adjustment for such series.
Before computing the balance, therefore,
each cell was given a weight that measured
its relative alterability, based on the average
dollar volatility of the series over the 10year period 1952-61. The computation then
consisted of finding a set of adjustments to
the matrix of seasonals that would eliminate
all discrepancies from that matrix while at
the same time minimizing the sum, over the
matrix, of relative adjustments in individual
cells.
Balancing the matrix of seasonals thus
amounts to computing a constrained minimum sum of adjustments, where the constraint is that the adjustments add to the
discrepancies to be eliminated. More specifically, the computation consisted of solving a system of 17 linear equations in 17
variables, one for each column and each row
of the submatrix except one, which was
derived residually from the solution for the
rest of the system. The 17 variables, when
found, were combined in pairs, one for the




row and another for the column of each
cell, and weighted by the volatility index of
that cell to find the adjustment to be made in
the cell in balancing the submatrix. A calculation of this type was made for each of
the 42 periods covered by the data. Once the
basic form of such a system is established,
it proceeds rapidly on a computer, taking
less than a minute per matrix from start
to delivery of revised seasonally adjusted
cells.8
Bringing the matrix into balance by this
procedure is clearly more mechanical than
the usual editing procedure of eliminating
extremes and abrupt shifts in seasonals from
a series before subjecting it to seasonal ad8
One characteristic of this balancing procedure is
that it does not upset the relation of adjusted series
to annual totals. If each series adds to actual annual
totals before balance, then the matrices of seasonal
adjustments add to zero over the year, including adjustment discrepancy elements of those matrices. As
a result the modifications made in balancing also
add to zero over the year, and each adjusted series
adds to its annual total after, as well as before, modification for balance.
It may be noted that two of the transaction accounts in the balance matrix—the interbank account
and proprietors' net equity—are measured statistically so as to disallow discrepancies of any form,
whether seasonal or other. For proprietors' net
equity, moreover, no seasonal movement has ever
been estimated. The role of these two accounts in
the system is to extend the flexibility of the balance
mechanism.
The interbank account, which is a combination of
relations between the Federal Reserve and commercial banks through reserves, member bank borrowing, float, and vault cash, is fairly volatile both seasonally and otherwise and is therefore subject to
some modification to the extent that it helps balance
accounts for both subsectors of the banking system
simultaneously.
Proprietors' net equity was brought in because
it is statistically one of the least measureable series
in the system. To the extent that adding irregular
movements to it helps balance the consumer and
noncorporate accounts seasonally adjusted, there may
be evidence here as to the actual fluctuations in the
series itself. There irregulars, having been derived in
balancing the seasonally adjusted accounts, must be
carried back to the unadjusted accounts, because they
are to be interpreted as modifications of the series
itself rather than of seasonal adjustments.

FLOW OF FUNDS SEASONALLY ADJUSTED

justment. If one is working within a matrix,
however, normal editing becomes clumsy
and complex, because all aspects of a disturbance must be dealt with simultaneously
in both sector and transaction accounts.
A simple example of such a disturbance
is the shift in the due date for personal taxes
from March 15 to April 15. This shift,
made in 1955, caused straightforward and
abrupt change in seasonal pattern arising
from a change in regulations; if possible,
it should be allowed for in seasonal adjustment. The seasonal in tax payments, however, is closely tied to seasonals in the
types of financial assets that consumers use
to pay taxes, to the seasonals in Federal
borrowing and cash balances, and probably
to other seasonals in the system. These financial flows associated with taxes must be
identified before any adequate allowance
for the change in regulations can be made.
The accompanying table summarizes the
major items connected with the tax shift.

1403
As shown in the table, the $23 billion (annual rate) change in tax seasonal was accompanied by an equal and opposite shift
in consumer saving, which in turn was reflected in several types of consumer financial transaction. Because the shift in seasonal for saving was virtually as abrupt as
that for taxes, it was too sharp to be followed closely in the original seasonal adjustment for financial flows, which turned
out to be shifted by only $13 billion when
the adjustment for the sector discrepancy
was included. The effect here was a net adjustment discrepancy of $10 billion. The
corresponding Federal Government discrepancy was $15 billion.
At this point, in normal editing practice,
the $10 billion gap in consumer seasonal
movement must be distributed among financial flows on an appropriate basis. The evidence of the raw adjustments is that the
flows most significantly affected by the tax
shift were neither cash nor savings accounts,
which had virtually no shift in seasonals, but
rather Government securities, corporate and
municipal securities, and consumer credit.
This in itself is a remarkable finding on interrelations among transaction accounts. The
problem remains, nevertheless, that if seasonals in these accounts are altered by hand
to eliminate the consumer discrepancy, the
row (transaction) accounts are out of balance until offsetting changes are made for
other investor sectors or for issuers of the
securities.9 Then those sector accounts are
out of balance until other seasonals are
modified.
The balance calculation described earlier
is an alternative to this procedure. As the
table indicates, the balancing operation
9

row occurred mainly in purchases by security dealers
and banks. About a quarter of the total shift was in
net issues.

1404

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

brought the shifts in the financial-flow seasonal considerably closer to the seasonal in
saving, having allocated about two-thirds of
the difference to sharper shifts for consumer
cash and Government securities and the rest
to the consumer discrepancy. The operation
clearly allocated too much to cash in this
case. Part of the shift should have gone to
private securities, but these were not in the
matrix to be balanced.
The inability to cope with the shift in
security purchases and issues in this example
illustrates a special problem in balancing
seasonals, whether by editing or computation. If, as suggested by the data, seasonals
shifted sharply in several parts of security
markets with the change in consumer tax
payment schedule, this shift was accompanied in other sectors by shifts in other seasonals such as those for liquid assets and
bank borrowing. In seasonal adjustment,
however, all of these shifts would be understated by approximately the same relative
amounts, and there would be no evidence in
discrepancies for nonconsumer sectors that
adjustments had been inadequate. Including
private securities in the balance matrix
would therefore not in itself have corrected
the overadjustment of consumer cash, since
it would not have revealed the presence of
under-adjustments throughout entire systems. This suggests that the balance operation should be expanded to include other indicators of poor adjustment than the presence of absence of discrepancies in the accounts, and tests in that direction will be
tried in coming months.
An interesting byproduct of balancing
seasonals is the possibility of establishing
balanced matrices of the irregular components of flows for particular periods of interest. Financial markets occasionally experience shocks of various types and inten-




sities, such as the speculative disturbance in
Government securities markets in mid-1958.
Such shocks appear in the adjusted data as
large irregular movements in numerous
forms of financial flows, and starting with
balanced seasonal adjustments it is possible
to isolate the set of irregulars in a period as
a single interrelated system. As a system,
large irregulars can bring out interconnections among financial markets in peculiarly
sharp form, and from early evidence it appears that these interconnections are extremely widespread. Further study of such
data can probably articulate many aspects
of financial-market mechanism that until
now could be recognized only in general
and unqualified terms.

tables is a reconstruction of the two summary tables, Tables 2 and 3. Table 2 now
presents on one page a condensed statement
of national saving and investment (Part I ) ,
a summary of credit flows most immediately
related to saving and investment (Part II),

FLOW OF FUNDS SEASONALLY ADJUSTED

and a brief recapitulation of credit flows
through financial institutions (Part III).
Table 3 in its new form presents certain
major transaction accounts that are of interest for current analysis—demand deposits, time and savings accounts, Federal and
other securities, mortgages, and bank loans.10
Table 2, Part II—the credit flow summary—is the only significant departure in
form from former flow of funds tables. It
constitutes a balanced account in which the
total of borrowing by nonfinancial sectors is
fully accounted for on the supply side of
credit markets by financial flows from nonfinancial sectors.
In the summary of supply, lending by
financial intermediaries has thus been removed by consolidation, with the sources
of intermediaries' funds that financed the
lending substituted for such lending. For
example, bank credit is reflected in the
table as changes in cash balances and time
deposits of private sectors, the Federal Government, and foreign investors, by retained
income of banks included in "sources n.e.c,"
and by stock issues to the extent that such
stocks are bought by nonfinancial sectors
rather than by other financial institutions.
Each of the financial sectors has been handled comparably.11
The purpose of this treatment is to present movements in borrowing in direct relation to the effects such movements have on
financial assets of nonfinancial sectors, par10

The term "transaction account" refers to rows
in the matrix form of the system shown in Table
1 as distinct from the sector accounts in Table 4,
which are columns of the matrix. Tables 3 and 4
thus summarize the same material in cross sections
along different dimensions of the matrix.
u
Although insurance and pension funds are viewed
in the flow of funds system as private claims, they
are markedly different in character from deposits
and securities and have been segregated in the table
to limit the private financial investment total to
flows subject to short-run discretionary action.




1405
ticularly private investors. Where private
investment does not parallel total borrowing,
the reason can be found in Federal cash or
lending, foreign flows, insurance and pensions, or the miscellaneous group, sources
n.e.c.12
Most of the large responses to developments in financial markets, however, are to
be found within the total for private financial investment in the form of shifts of flows
among cash, time deposits, and Federal securities. A comparison of 1957, 1958,
and 1959 in the annual columns of the table
brings out some of the variety of relationship among movements present in the table.13
Part III of Table 2 summarizes the aggregate flows through intermediaries that
have been consolidated out of Part II. Further detail on intermediaries' flows can be
found in Table 4, Parts G and H.
Structural changes. The most important
structual change introduced with these accounts is the removal of security credit from
the totals for credit-market borrowing. Security loans act primarily to supply bank
credit to security markets on a short-run
basis and do not constitute, in general, part
of the basic demand for credit in the economy. Although movements in security credit
are rarely large, they occasionally are significant enough to give a misleading impression of credit movements if they are included in the total. They are now shown in
13
Fluctuations in sources n.e.c. arise mainly from
sporadic discrepancy movements remaining in financial-sector accounts. These discrepancy shifts are
partly statistical and partly the result of seasonal
adjustment. Both types will be reduced with further
work on the accounts.
13
Consumer security credit—borrowing to carry
securities—is a negative component of private financial investment in Table 2, Part II. This credit is
supplied largely by banks, either directly or through
loans to brokers, and is reflected in the table in the
distribution of bank sources of funds, as described
earlier.

1406

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

the matrix and sector tables as an item separate from credit-market flows but are included in total borrowing and lending.14
In the second change in structure consumer-held savings bonds and Postal Savings
System deposits are now classified as Federal
obligations. Savings bonds and PSS deposits
are ambiguous financial instruments, serving both as redeemable savings deposits and
as advances of funds to a nonfinancial sector, the Federal Government. The flows are
normally small, however, and including
them in Federal obligations simplifies a summary use of the accounts.
The third structural change, in the treatment of nonlife insurance companies, is
mainly technical. The income of these companies has until now been the only element
of nonfinancial data not directly derived
from the Commerce Department's income
and product accounts. To close this remaining gap between income and product
and flow of funds accounts, the nonlife
premium and benefit transactions have been
shifted from a cash to the accrual basis
reflected in tax returns and national income.
Shifts to accrual accounting required establishment of a new financial claim of policy
holders for prepaid premiums and unpaid
benefits. This claim was introduced into the
accounts and included in miscellaneous fi14

Eliminating security credit from credit-market
totals does not eliminate all credit flows of that nature, because some borrowing to carry securities is
classified elsewhere in financial statistics and is not
identifiable as such. This change presumably adjusts
for the major part of the problem, however.




nancial transactions as a liability of the insurance sector and an asset of consumers
and business. The total flow—the difference
between net accruals and net cash payments
—is occasionally as large as $1 billion at
annual rates and is reflected in the accompanying sector tables.
PUBLICATION SCHEDULE

According to present plans, current data for
the adjusted flow of funds accounts will be
published quarterly in the BULLETIN on a
schedule similar to that maintained since
1959 for the unadjusted accounts. Annual
revisions of the accounts to reflect revisions
in income and product accounts and new
financial data will be published in the August BULLETIN of each year, and changes
in seasonal adjustments of the accounts will
appear at that time.
Flow of funds supplements presenting
data for all periods and all accounts will
continue to appear annually as soon as the
tables can be assembled following the August revisions. These supplements will include summaries of annual flows, seasonally
adjusted and unadjusted quarterly flows,
year-end levels of assets and liabilities, and
other information on the accounts that may
appear useful from time to time. Publication of the 1962 supplement has been delayed in order that it may include the seasonally adjusted accounts as well as unadjusted
data as revised in August 1962. A notice
of the publication of this supplement will
appear in the BULLETIN.

1407

FLOW OF FUNDS SEASONALLY ADJUSTED
NOTES TO CHARTS

Data for the charts are taken from Tables 2 and 3
(pp. 1510 and 1512). In all except Chart 6, the series
plotted are centered, 2-quarter moving averages of the
data in the tables. Financial flows are characteristically
more volatile from quarter to quarter than income and
product flows, even after seasonal adjustment. The
fluctuations reflect primarily the use of short-term
financing to cushion the first impact of large security
flotations and to shift timing of long-term financing
from one quarter to another. These short-run movements are important in the short run, but they obscure
the underlying cyclical relationships that most of the
charts are intended to illustrate. Such movements have
therefore been eliminated from the charts by the
shortest moving average possible with quarterly data.
Chart 6 presents flows without smoothing in order to
bring out the short-run relationship mentioned in the
text. 1962 data are shown directly in all charts.
Chart 1. Private total investment is discussed in
footnote 2 (p. 1396); in Table 2, Part I, it consists
of line H, Gross national investment, less lines E and
G, saving by Federal Government and financial sectors.
Total borrowing is taken from Table 2, Part II; it is
line A, total net funds raised by nonfinancial sectors,
less line U, changes in Federal cash balances. Movements in Federal cash are an element of credit supply
that offsets equivalent movements in Federal borrowing to a large extent as a component of credit demand.
Netting Federal cash movements against borrowing
eliminates a volatility of the total that is largely technical rather than part of major financial-nonfinancial
relationships.
Trend is removed from both investment and borrowing in Chart 1 to facilitate comparison with GNP
changes, in which the corresponding growth component is reflected as a nearly constant additive element
of the series.

NOTES TO TABLES

Cash balances shown in Part II of Table 2 are on a
bank-record basis for both the Federal Government
(line U) and private investors (line AC). This treatment differs from the asset side of the demand-deposit
transaction account—Table 3, Part I—which is on
holder-record basis. The difference between bank and
holder record consists mainly of mail float—checks in
transit that are temporarily not in any depositor's
cash-balance record. This difference appears in Table
3, Part I as a discrepancy on line L for the Federal
Government and on line M for private depositors. For
the Federal Government, bank record appears in the
table as line B.
Net issues of other securities, Table 3, Part IV, exclude investment-company shares. These shares are
netted against investment-company purchases of securities (lines N, O, and P) and are included in consumer net purchases, line G.

p. 1063 and August 1959 BULLETIN, p. 846ff.

Automation at Commercial Banks
• Commercial banks have already made
substantial strides toward automation, and
even greater advances are in prospect within
3 years on the basis of firm plans already
made.
• Nearly half of all banks with total
deposits of $25 million or more are using,
or are planning to use, automated equipment—mainly general purpose electronic
computer systems—for some of their bookkeeping operations. Nearly all large banks
and an appreciable number of smaller banks
are acquiring such systems.
• Regular checking accounts rank foremost among the banking operations to which
automated procedures are being applied.
Other operations with a high volume of
bookkeeping activity, such as special checking accounts and consumer loans, are close
behind. Automation is being least extensively applied in various low-volume operations, particularly time certificates of deposit, commercial loans, and trust activities.
• Preprinting of checks in magnetic ink
with transit number and routing symbol is
expected to be almost universal within 3
years. Encoding of checks with dollar
amount of check, however, will be confined
mainly to larger banks. Only about one-fifth
of the banks with total deposits of $25 million or more plan to encode checks sent to
the Federal Reserve or to correspondent
banks for collection.
These are some of the findings of a survey
conducted by the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System, in cooperation
with the Federal Reserve Banks, in March
1962 to determine the existing status and expected progress of automation at commer-




cial banks. The major purpose of the survey
was to provide information needed by the
Federal Reserve System in adapting its operations to advancing technology in the field
of bank bookkeeping, including arrangements for processing the increasing flow of
magnetic ink encoded checks through the
clearing facilities of the Reserve Banks.
The survey included all 974 commercial
banks with total deposits of $25 million or
more; 972 of these banks submitted completed questionnaires.1 The reporting form
is reproduced at the end of this article.
STATUS OF AUTOMATION

On the March 1962 survey date, more than
45 per cent of all commercial banks with
total deposits of $25 million and over, or
447 banks, had already automated some
part of their bookkeeping operations or had
definite plans for automation within 3 years,
as shown in Table 1. Almost seven-eighths
of these automating banks are moving
toward advanced systems built around an
1
Unless otherwise indicated, all references to banks
in this article relate to commercial banks with total
deposits of $25 million or more. In seven Federal Reserve districts, appreciable numbers of smaller banks
were surveyed on a selective basis. The Districts involved are Boston, New York, Richmond, St. Louis,
Kansas City, Dallas, and San Francisco. The total
number of smaller banks reporting was 1,841.
NOTE.—The survey of commercial bank automation was conducted under the supervision of James B.
Eckert, Chief of the Banking Section of the Board's
Division of Research and Statistics. Assistance in
planning the survey was provided by various Federal
Reserve System groups having responsibilities relating
to automation. Mr. Robert R. Wyand, II, Economist
in the Banking Section, was responsible for developing the statistical procedures for processing and summarizing the data. This article was prepared by Mr.
Eckert and Mr. Wyand.

AUTOMATION AT COMMERCIAL BANKS

electronic computer; the remainder will employ mainly conventional punch-card accounting equipment.
Computers were already in operation or
were being installed for 178 banks. These
banks hold roughly 40 per cent of all commercial bank deposits. As might be expected, in view of the high initial cost of such
systems and the risks involved in moving
into relatively untried fields, larger banks
have been in the vanguard in adopting computer systems. All but 2 of the 60 largest

banks—those with total deposits of $500
million or more—are installing computers.
Most of them already have the equipment
on hand.
The proportion of banks with computer
systems, either existing or planned, becomes
progressively smaller for banks in the
smaller size classes, particularly for banks
with total deposits of less than $100 million. Nevertheless, 77 banks with total deposits in the $25 million-$50 million range,
or 17 per cent of all such banks, are adopting

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

computer systems. For most of these 77
banks, however, the computers are still in
the planning stage.
On the other hand, nearly all banks automating with noncomputer systems are small
banks. In those districts in which the survey
was extended to some of the banks with
total deposits of less than $25 million, prospective automation at such banks was found
to be negligible.
Substantial progress toward automation
was reported in all Federal Reserve districts,
with the percentage of banks using or
planning computers ranging from 32 to 61
per cent, as shown in Supplementary Table
1. The San Francisco District, in which
branch banking is extensive, shows the largest proportion of computer-system banks, as
well as an unusually large proportion of
banks with systems already in operation or
being installed.
Type of computer. Nearly two-thirds of the
banks adopting computer systems are using
general purpose machines capable of adaptation to many types of bookkeeping operations. The 16 banks reporting large general
purpose computers are mainly those with
total deposits of $500 million or more, and
most of these machines are already in operation, as shown in Supplementary Table 2.
Medium-size computers were reported in appreciable numbers by banks in all size
groups down to total deposits of $50 million,
while small computers were reported mainly
by banks in the $50 million-$500 million
range of total deposits. Almost half the
medium-scale and more than half of the
small-scale computers were either in operation or being installed on the survey date.
For the most part smaller banks are the
ones adopting special purpose computers.
Such computers include those with special
capacity for handling large files of data.
A total of 94 banks, mainly those with




deposits of $100 million or more, are using
or plan to use more than one computer,
almost all general purpose machines. For
nearly half of these banks, two computers
were already in operation or being installed
on the survey date. In many cases, banks
were using or planning to use two computers
of the same general type.
Nearly all banks reporting large and
medium-size general purpose computers are
using either magnetic tape or a combination
of punch cards and magnetic tape as the
medium for reading data into the computer
and deriving output, as shown in Supplementary Table 2. This is also true for most
banks using small general purpose computers, although about one-fourth of these
banks reported punch-card input-output facilities. Banks using special purpose computers reported using punch-card facilities
more than other types, but an appreciable
number of such banks also reported using
magnetic tape and punch paper tape.
Arrangements for management. About 85

per cent of the banks adopting computer
systems are purchasing or leasing the equipment on an individual bank basis. This is
true for all such banks with total deposits
of $250 million or more and for the predominant proportion of all smaller banks.
A total of 32 banks, or less than 10 per cent
of all computer-system banks, are contracting with a correspondent bank or an outside
service firm to provide them with computer
services.
Nearly 200 banks, mainly the larger ones,
report that they are planning to make their
deposit accounting and sorting services
available to other banks. On the other hand,
only about 80 banks with deposits of $25
million or more indicate that they plan to
have one or both of these services performed
for them by other banks or by outside service organizations. Of the 1,841 respondent

1411

AUTOMATION AT COMMERCIAL BANKS

banks with total deposits of less than $25
million, 206 or about one-tenth reported
plans to use outside check processing services.2 These data suggest that competition
among large city banks for the check processing business of smaller banks may become
quite active and that the use of automated
services among smaller banks may spread
more rapidly than projected by these banks
at the time of the survey.
An additional 22 banks indicated that
they were arranging cooperative facilities
with other banks to perform their computer
operations, despite the legal difficulties in
doing so. At the time of the survey, investment in the stock of service corporations was
not permissible for Federally supervised
banks, but legislation permitting such in2
Since several districts surveying smaller banks
restricted coverage to banks most likely to be interested in automation, this proportion is higher than
would be true for smaller banks generally.

vestment was enacted on October 23 of
this year.3 As a result of this legislation,
more medium-size and small banks should
be able to avail themselves of the economies
possible only through use of the more advanced types of electronic computer systems.
The survey shows that banks participating
in cooperative ventures or contracting for
computer services generally have the use of
larger computers than banks of comparable
size purchasing or leasing their own equipment.
MAGNETIC INK CHARACTER
RECOGNITION SORTERS

A total of 361 banks, or nearly two-fifths of
all banks with deposits of $25 million or
more, are now using or plan to use magnetic
ink character recognition (MICR) equipment for sorting and reading checks and
other bank documents, as shown in Table 2.

In general, such sorters are one essential of

checks, incorporating an electronic computer. However, 56 banks that are acquiring
computers have no plans for MICR sorters,
and 19 banks acquiring sorters have no
plans for computers. In both instances most
of these banks fall in the smaller size classes.
Sorters are already in operation at 165
banks and are being installed at 34 other
banks; and 162 banks have such units on
order or definitely planned. Practically all
banks with deposits of $250 million and over
are using or have firm plans for MICR sorting equipment. The proportion of banks
using sorters decreases rapidly as size of
bank decreases, with sorters reported by
only 14 per cent of banks with deposits from
$25 million to $50 million. Most banks own
or lease sorters, operating them under singlebank management, but 15 smaller banks
are planning cooperative facilities for providing sorter services, and 25 are contracting for such services with correspondent
banks or data-processing organizations.
APPLICATIONS OF AUTOMATION

Statistical operations involving routine processing of large numbers of transactions are
particularly well suited for automation.
Banks have a large number of such operations. The recent development of equipment
capable of reading data imprinted with magnetic ink has greatly enhanced the possibilities for realization of the economies of automation in banking. As might be expected,
the survey shows that banks are employing
automated procedures in a variety of operations, with the extent of automation depending on the volume of transactions as well as
the adaptability of the operation to available
automation procedures.
For example, in most banks regular
checking accounts give rise to the largest




volume of bookkeeping activity; and they
are receiving the most attention in bank
automation planning. Within 3 years seveneighths, or 388, of the automating banks
will have coverage in this area, as shown in
Table 3. Other high-volume activities that
are being extensively automated include special checking accounts and consumer loans,
each reported by more than 70 per cent of
the automating banks, and savings accounts,
which were reported by almost 60 per cent.
More than half report coverage for mortgage loans and payroll accounts. Receiving
least attention are operations generally involving small volume and little processing,
including time certificates of deposit and
time deposits, open account; commercial
loans; and trust activities.
Implementation of automation plans,
however, is less advanced for regular checking accounts than for any other operation.
By the March survey date, only 16 per cent
of the banks automating regular checking
accounts had covered more than 80 per
cent of all such accounts within the bank.
An additional 52 per cent indicated that they
would achieve nearly complete coverage
with the use of equipment on hand or on
order, while 22 per cent of the banks had
yet to order the equipment. The extensive
work and planning involved in converting
regular checking accounts to MICR systems,
together with lags in the availability of
equipment, account in large part for the
limited progress reported thus far in automating these accounts.
In contrast, banks reported that they had
made most progress in implementing plans
for automating their payroll accounts.
Nearly three-fifths of all the banks that are
planning to automate these accounts reported almost complete coverage as of the
survey date. Substantial progress also was
reported in automating consumer loan and

personal trust accounts. In each of these
areas, however, existing automation is
mainly through conventional punch-card ac-

counting equipment, which has been available for a long time. Although planned automation in these areas involves increased

use of computers, conventional systems will
remain dominant in payroll and personal
trust accounts even after planned expansion
has been completed.
The existing automation of nonsavings
time deposits, mortgage loans, and commercial loans is mainly through conventional
punch-card systems. When the proposed expansion is complete, however, each of these
types of accounts will be more than 50 per
cent computer automated.
At the time of the survey, very little automation of transit activities had been
achieved. A total of 192 banks, or 43 per
cent of the automating banks, however, expect to have transit activities automated
within 3 years.
ACCOUNT NUMBERING AND
CLASSIFICATION

Banks that plan to automate their deposit
accounting or that have already done so
have adopted modified versions of either a
straight numbering of accounts or an alphanumeric system. The simple alpha-numeric
system generally is modified by dividing the
alphabet into small sections, for example,
AAA-AIA, AJA-ARA, etc. Within these
alphabetic sections, new accounts are inserted at the next unassigned number instead of in strictly alphabetic positions. A
further modification involves the segregation of groups of accounts for special handling, such as high activity accounts, trusts,
interbank accounts, public funds, and employee accounts.
The straight numeric system generally is
modified by grouping numbered accounts by
type, for example, special checking, regular
checking, and commercial accounts. Frequently, broad alphabetic groups are maintained within each category of numbered
account. Although a majority of the automating banks have adopted a modified




straight numeric system for numbering both
their deposit accounts and their loan accounts, a substantial number will continue
to use a modified alpha-numeric system.
A total of 231 banks, or more than onehalf of all automating banks, report that
they would be able to obtain figures through
their automated systems for the classifications of deposits and loans as required in
official Reports of Condition. Moreover, 134
banks report that their automated systems
could provide totals for the suggested demand and time deposit classifications developed by the Federal Reserve System as a
guide to automating banks, and 123 banks
report that provision has been made to adopt
the System's recommendations at a later
date.4 The classifications currently in effect,
however, provide considerably less detail
than those suggested by the Federal Reserve.
MAGNETIC INK PREPRINTING AND
ENCODING

A prerequisite to the use of MICR sorters is
the preprinting of checks or other documents
with magnetic ink characters. Banks may
have one or more of three different categories of information mechanically recorded
on checks: bank transit number and routing
symbol to facilitate forwarding and crediting of checks between banks; dollar amount
of check to permit automatic debiting, crediting, and verifying of proper amounts; and
individual account identification to facilitate internal bookkeeping at the payee bank.
At the time of the survey more than 400
banks, or 43 per cent of all banks surveyed,
were preprinting more than four-fifths of
their checks with magnetic ink characters
showing transit number and routing symbol.
Almost all the banks were preprinting some
of their checks, as shown in Table 4. Fur4

See Federal Reserve BULLETINS, July 1960 and
May 1961.

1415

AUTOMATION AT COMMERCIAL BANKS

ther rapid progress in the use of magnetic
ink symbols is in prospect; 467 banks plan
to have all checks preprinted by the end of
this year, and 724 by mid-1963. Only 7
small banks have no plans for preprinting.
Almost one-third of the respondents, or
312 banks, have already acquired or have
ordered equipment to encode the dollar
amounts on checks in magnetic ink characters, as shown in Table 5. At the time of the
survey, only 25 banks were encoding the
dollar amounts on checks sent to Federal
Reserve Banks or to correspondent banks
for collection, and an additional 200 banks

were planning such encoding, using equipment on hand or on order.
In seven Federal Reserve districts some
banks with total deposits of less than $25
million were surveyed regarding the use of
magnetic ink encoding procedures and
equipment. A substantial number of these
smaller banks are preprinting checks with
their transit-routing numbers. But only a
few will encode the dollar amounts on
checks sent out for collection, and a very
small number of these banks will operate
their own electronic sorting equipment.

Quarterly Survey of Consumer
Buying Intentions
CONSUMER PLANS to buy automobiles
and household durable goods continued
strong in October, according to data from
the Quarterly Survey of Consumer Buying
Intentions. Plans to buy new automobiles
and household durable goods increased
more from July to October than they had in
either of the two preceding years. Plans to
buy used automobiles showed little change,
compared with small increases in other recent years.1
In October the number of consumers
reporting plans to buy automobiles within
the next 6 or 12 months or reporting plans
to buy household durable goods within 6
months were all appreciably larger than a
year earlier. Moreover, more families than
in other recent Octobers reported that they
definitely would buy or that they would buy
within the first 3 months. Plans to buy
houses declined slightly from July to October but in October were close to the yearearlier level.
Consumers continued to report favorable
expectations about prospective changes in
income. The proportion expecting higher
incomes over the next year was slightly
larger in October than in July; the propor1P
This article presents the findings of the October
1962 Quarterly Survey conducted by the U. S. Bureau of the Census. The Quarterly Survey is conducted under the supervision of Mona E. Dingle of
the Board's staff and James C. Byrnes of the Bureau
of the Census. The current article was prepared by
Theodore G. Flechsig. Articles covering the previous
Quarterly Surveys appeared in earlier issues of the
BULLETIN. A description of the Survey appeared in
the BULLETIN for September 1960, pp. 977-1003.




tion expecting no change was correspondingly smaller. The proportion of families
who expected lower incomes or who were
uncertain about their future income prospects remained unchanged at a level well
below that of the corresponding period of
1961. In the recent Survey about the same
number of families as in the April and July
Surveys reported that their incomes were
equal to or higher than those a year earlier.
Automobiles. Reported plans to buy new
automobiles within 3 or 6 months, already
at high levels for July, increased slightly
more from July to October than in the corresponding period of 1960 or 1961. Reported plans to buy in 6 to 12 months following the Survey also advanced more than
in either of the two preceding years. The
proportions of families in October who reported plans to buy new cars within each
of the planning intervals covered by the
Survey were well above the corresponding
proportions reported in October 1960 and
1961.
In October, 6-month plans to buy used
automobiles were about the same as in October 1961, after having been above yearearlier levels in April and July. Definite
plans to buy and plans to buy within 3
months, however, were reported more often
than in either of the two preceding October
Surveys.
The number of consumers reporting dissatisfaction with the cars they owned was
about the same this October as it was a year
earlier. Six per cent said they had been

shopping for a new or used car in the weeks
immediately preceding the Survey, compared with 5 per cent in October 1961 and
slightly more than 6 per cent in October
1960.
In each quarter of this year consumer
purchases of new cars have been substantially larger than in the corresponding quarter of 1961 and for the first 9 months were
about one-fifth larger than in the same period of 1961. Consumer reports of used car
purchases showed little change from the
second to the third quarter this year, in contrast with substantial declines in the three
preceding years. According to Survey reports, purchases of used cars in the third
quarter were considerably above the third
quarter totals for 1961 and earlier years,
while purchases in the first half had been
equal to those in the first half of 1961.




Household durable goods. Six-month plans
to buy household durable goods increased
slightly more from July to October than in
the same period of 1961 and considerably
more than in 1960. Reported plans to buy
each of the household items included in
the Survey were higher than or about the
same as a year earlier. Expected purchases
of television sets, clothes dryers, and radio
and phonographic equipment were particularly strong.
As indicated in the chart, 6-month plans
per 100 families were about the same as in
October I960, after having been below the
corresponding 1960 levels in earlier Surveys this year. However, because these proportions are based on an expanding number of households, the number of plans was
actually about the same in July 1962 as
two years earlier and in October was slightly
larger than in October I960. 2 Plans to buy
household durable goods within 3 months,
moreover, continued at a substantially

In terms of the number of plans or purchases, it
should be kept in mind that reported proportions are
based on the total number of households, which increase by about 1 million units, or 2 per cent, per
year. Thus 20.7 plans per 100 families in the recent
Survey is equivalent in numbers to about 21.5 plans
per 100 families in October 1960.

QUARTERLY SURVEY OF CONSUMER BUYING INTENTIONS

higher level than in the corresponding Survey of the two preceding years.
Families interviewed in October reported
12.6 purchases of household durable goods
per 100 families for the third quarter, compared with 11 per 100 families in the second quarter. The increase between quarters
was about the same as in 1961. The total
number of purchases by consumers in the
third quarter was about 10 per cent larger
than the number reported for the corresponding quarter of 1960 and 1961. This
is the fourth consecutive quarter in which
reported purchases of household durable
goods have exceeded the year-earlier total.
Houses. Plans to buy houses within 6 or
12 months declined slightly from July to
October, compared with a similar decline
in the same period of 1960 and no change
in the corresponding period of 1961.
Slightly fewer families in October than a
year earlier expected to buy houses, and
fewer expressed definite plans to buy. In
July, plans had been slightly higher than in
July 1961. According to Survey data, in
the third quarter purchases of new and existing houses continued to show little change
from year-earlier levels.
Sampling variability. Data from Quarterly
Surveys are based on about 17,000 interviews and, as is true of all sample surveys,
may differ because of sampling variability
from data that would be obtained if a complete census were taken. The reliability of
estimates of percentages obtained from the
Survey depends on the size of the estimated
percentage and the size of the total sample
—or portion of the sample—on which the
percentage is based.
Sampling errors are shown in the table
for selected percentages and sample sizes.
The sample sizes are expressed in terms of
the estimated number of households repre-

number of households sampled. The chances
are 68 in 100, or about 2 in 3, that an
estimate from the Survey would differ from
a complete census by less than the sample
errors shown in the table and 95 in 100
that the difference would be less than twice

The second table shows the approximate
number of households by income and age

different from the mechanics of transfer and
delivery of certificates for shares of outstanding
securities, and the issuance of mutual fund shares
is not a future event in a sense that would warrant
the extension of the time for payment beyond that
afforded in the case of outstanding securities.
Consequently, the Board has concluded that a
purchase of mutual fund shares is not a purchase
of an "unissued security" to which Section
220.4(c)(3) applies, but is a transaction to which
Section 220.4(c) (2) applies.
Compilation of Federal and State Laws
Relating to Bank Holding Companies
A compilation of provisions of Federal and
State laws relating to bank holding companies, as
of June 1, 1962, has been prepared by the Legal
Division of the Board of Governors, with the
assistance of the Counsel for the Federal Reserve
Banks. Copies of the compilation may be obtained upon request.
Bank Service Corporations
The Act of Congress, approved October 23,
1962 (Public Law 87-856), the so-called "Bank
Service Corporation Act," authorizes all banks
subject to Federal supervision to invest in corporations whose purpose is to provide clerical, bookkeeping, accounting, and statistical services. The
Board of Governors issued a statement on October 23, 1962, to all State chartered member
banks, explaining the provisions of the Bank
Service Corporation Act. The texts of the Act
and of the Board's Statement read as follows:
AN ACT
To authorize certain banks to invest in corporations
whose purpose is to provide clerical services for
them, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States of America
in Congress assembled, That for the purposes
of this Act—
{a) The Term "Federal supervisory agency" means
the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or the
Board of Directors of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation.
(b) The term "bank services" means services such
as check and deposit sorting and posting, computation and posting of interest and other credits and
charges, preparation and mailing of checks, state-




ments, notices, and similar items, or any other
clerical, bookkeeping, accounting, statistical, or similar functions performed for a bank.
(c) The term "bank service corporation" means a
corporation organized to perform bank services for
two or more banks, each of which owns part of the
capital stock of such corporation, and at least one
of which is subject to examination by a Federal supervisory agency.
(d) The term "invest" includes any advance of
funds to a bank service corporation, whether by the
purchase of stock, the making of a loan, or otherwise, except a payment for rent earned, goods sold
and delivered, or services rendered prior to the making of such payment.
SEC. 2. (a) No limitation or prohibition otherwise
imposed by any provision of Federal law exclusively
relating to banks shall prevent any two or more banks
from investing not more than 10 percentum of the
paid-in and unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus of each of them in a bank service corporation.
(b) If stock in a bank service corporation has
been held by two banks, and one of such banks ceases
to utilize the services of the corporation and ceases
to hold stock in it, and leaves the other as the sole
stockholding bank, the corporation may nevertheless
continue to function as such and the other bank may
continue to hold stock in it.
SEC. 3. Whenever a bank (referred to in this section
as an "applying bank") subject to examination by a
Federal supervisory agency applies for a type of bank
services for itself from a bank service corporation
which supplies the same type of bank services to
another bank, and the applying bank is competitive
with any bank (referred to in this section as a "stockholding bank") which holds stock in such corporation, the corporation must offer to supply such
services by either—
(1) issuing stock to the applying bank and furnishing bank services to it on the same basis as to
the other banks holding stock in the corporation,
or
(2) furnishing bank services to the applying
bank at rates no higher than necessary to fairly
reflect the cost of such services, including the reasonable cost of the capital provided to the corporation by its stockholders,
at the corporation's option, unless comparable services
at competitive overall cost are available to the applying bank from another source, or unless the furnishing
of the services sought by the applying bank would be
beyond the practical capacity of the corporation. In
any action or proceeding to enforce the duty imposed
by this section, or for damages for the breach thereof,
the burden shall be upon the bank service corporation
to show such availability.
SEC. 4. No bank service corporation may engage
in any activity other than the performance of bank
services for banks.
SEC. 5. (a) No bank subject to examination by a
Federal supervisory agency may cause to be performed, by contract or otherwise, any bank services
for itself, whether on or off its premises, unless assurances satisfactorv to the agency prescribed in
subsection (b) of this section are furnished to such
agency by both the bank and the party performing
such services that the performance thereof will be

LAW DEPARTMENT
subject to regulation and examination by such agency
to the same extent as if such services were being performed by the bank itself on its own premises.
(b) The assurances required by subsection (a)
of this section shall be given, in the case of—
(1) a national banking association or a bank
operating under the code of laws for the District
of Columbia, to the Comptroller of the Currency;
(2) a bank (other than a bank described in
paragraph (1)) which is a member of the Federal
Reserve System, to the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System; and
(3) a bank (other than a bank described in
paragraph (1) or (2)) whose deposits are insured
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, to
the Board of Directors of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Approved October, 1962.
STATEMENT OF THE
BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE
FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM ON THE
BANK SERVICE CORPORATION ACT
Purpose of the Statement. The purpose of this
statement is to provide some initial guidance to
State banks that are members of the Federal Reserve
System relative to the so-called "Bank Service Corporation Act," which became effective on the approval date shown on the cover page hereof. A copy
of the text of the Act is attached to this statement.
The Act involves an area of relatively recent development and is the first Federal legislation to deal
with the subject specifically. None of the provisions
of the Act has a delayed effective date. While all
banks are not expected to have the same immediate interest therein, the Act or some of its provisions will have a present interest to many banks
which contemplate or now have arrangements for
utilizing bank services of the kind covered by the
Act. Accordingly, this statement sets forth or summarizes salient features of the Act and refers in
some detail to the provisions of Section 5 of the
Act relating specifically to the assurances concerning
regulation and examination required to be furnished
to the appropriate Federal supervisory agency which,
in the case of State member banks, is the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Bank investment in bank service corporations. The
legislative history of the Act contains numerous
recognitions of the need to enable banks to utilize
modern automated equipment by means of their
ownership of stock in corporations referred to in the
Act as "bank service corporations."
To facilitate this objective, the Act provides that
"No limitation or prohibition otherwise imposed by
any provision of Federal law exclusively relating to
banks shall prevent any two or more banks from
investing not more than 10 percentum of the paid-in
and unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus of
each of them in a bank service corporation." This
10 per cent investment ceiling applies to loans and
other advances of funds, as well as the purchase of
stock.
The Act, however, does not authorize a State bank
to invest in a bank service corporation if the bank is
not permitted to do so under the applicable State law.




1429
Bank service corporations. "Bank service corporation" is defined in the Act to mean "a corporation organized to perform bank services for two or more
banks, each of which owns part of the capital stock of
such corporation, and at least one of which is subject
to examination by a Federal supervisory agency."
While initially at least two or more banks must
own stock in a bank service corporation, the Act
provides that if one bank ceases to hold such stock
and to utilize the services of the corporation, the
remaining bank may continue to hold stock of and
be serviced by the corporation.
Bank service corporations are prohibited from performing any services for persons or organizations
other than banks. Another provision of the Act is
intended to prevent any unfair or anti-competitive use
of a bank service corporation to the disadvantage of
a nonstockholding bank applying for service from
the corporation.
Examination and regulation. Under Section 5 of
the Act, no State member bank "may cause to be
performed, by contract or otherwise, any bank services for itself, whether on or off its premises, unless
assurances satisfactory to" the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System are furnished to it
"by both the bank and the party performing such
services that the performance thereof will be subject
to regulation and examination by" the Board of
Governors "to the same extent as if such services
were being performed by the bank itself on its own
premises." (Section 5 of the Act also applies to national banks and nonmember insured banks; but, as to
them, the assurances described in the section must
be furnished to the Comptroller of the Currency or
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as the
case may be.)
With respect to Section 5 of the Act, the Senate
Committee on Banking and Currency stated that the
Federal supervisory agencies "must be able to examine
all of the banks' records, and they must be able to
exercise proper supervision over all the banks' activities, whether performed by the banks' employees on
their premises or by anyone else on or off the banks'
premises. This examination and this supervision cannot be frustrated by a transfer of the banks' records
to some other organization or by having some other
organization carry out all or part of the banks'
functions." (S. Rept. No. 2105, 87th Cong, on H. R.
8874, Sept. 18, 1962, p. 3.) Similarly, the Committee on Banking and Currency of the House of
Representatives stated that "it would obviously be
unwise to permit banks to avoid the examination and
supervision of vital banking functions by the simple
expedient of farming out such functions." (H. Rept.
No. 2062, 87th Cong, on H. R. 8874, July 30, 1962,
P- 2.)
Assurances of banks and suppliers of bank services. The assurances required by Section 5 of the
Act in the case of a State member bank should be
furnished to the Board of Governors through the
Federal Reserve Bank of the district. The Act requires
such assurances from the party or organization performing the bank services, as well as from the bank
which the services are performed. Assurances are
required whether the services are performed under
pre-existing arrangements or new arrangements, and
whether the services are performed by bank service
corporations or others.
Unless and until further experience with the new

1430

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

legislation should indicate a need for other or more
detailed procedures, it will be satisfactory for the
required assurances to be furnished to the Board
of Governors by a letter addressed by the State
member bank to the Federal Reserve Bank, stating
in substance that the bank and the servicing agency
have agreed that the performance of the services
will be subject to regulation and examination by the
Board of Governors to the same extent as if the
services were being performed by the Bank itself
on its own premises. With respect to any service arrangement in existence at the effective date of the
Act, it is expected that the letter of assurance will
be received by the Federal Reserve Bank as promptly
as practicable, preferably within 30 days from such
date. As to any service arrangement entered into or
renewed after the effective date of the Act, the letter
of assurance should be received by the Federal
Reserve Bank prior to the performance of any services under such arrangement. Such letters need not
be furnished, unless specifically requested by the
Board of Governors, in connection with arrangements for the performance of legal services or administrative services such as transportation services
or guard services. Arrangements for bank services
needed because of emergencies or short periods of
unusually heavy work may also be made without furnishing such letters where it would be impracticable
to do so.

Inquiries concerning the Act. Inquiries concerning
the Act as it relates to State member banks should be
addressed to the Federal Reserve Bank of the district
in which the inquiry arises.

"Bank services." In connection with Section 5 of
the Act, as well as in other connections, references
are made in the Act to "bank services." That term is
defined in the Act to mean "services such as check
and deposit sorting and posting, computation and
posting of interest and other credits and charges,
preparation and mailing of checks, statements, notices,
and similar items, or any other clerical, bookkeeping,
accounting, statistical, or similar functions performed
for a bank."
As previously noted, numerous recognitions appear
in the Act's legislative history of the need for banks
and their customers to benefit from the use of modern
automated equipment. Of further relevance with respect to the meaning of "bank services" are the statements quoted above from the reports of the congressional committees. Bearing importantly upon the
meaning of "bank services" also is the following further quotation from page 3 of the Report of the Senate Committee:

This proceeding was initially instituted by an
Order of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System dated June 29, 1956, in which
the Board ordered a hearing to determine (1)
the adequacy or inadequacy of the net capital and
surplus funds of the Continental Bank and Trust
Company of Salt Lake City, Utah (hereinafter
called the "Bank"), (2) the additional amount of
capital funds, if any, needed by the Bank, and
(3) what period of time would be reasonable in
which to allow the Bank to increase its capital
funds to make them adequate.
By an Order dated July 18, 1960, [1960 F R
BULLETIN, page 860] based upon evidence contained in the record of that hearing, to the extent
indicated in that Order, and upon examination
and supervisory reports of the Bank equally available to the Bank, the Board found that the Bank's
net capital and surplus funds as of that date were
inadequate in relation to the character and condition of its assets and to its deposit liabilities and
other corporate responsibilities, and ordered that
within six months of the date of the Order the
Bank, by the sale of common stock for cash, effect
an increase in its net capital and surplus funds in
the amount of not less than $1,500,000.
Upon failure of the Bank to comply with such
Order of July 18, 1960, the Board on June 28,
1961, issued an Order for a hearing at which the
Bank might show cause why the Board should

"The authority to examine and supervise banks is broad
and must be vigorously exercised. At the same time sound
discretion must be used. Banks have always employed others
to do many things for them, and they will have to continue
to do so, and the bill is not intended to prevent this or to
make it more difficult. For example, banks have employed
lawyers to prepare trust and estate accounts and to prosecute
judicial proceedings for the settlement of such accounts. Banks
have employed accountants to prepare earnings statements
and balance sheets. Banks have employed public relations and
advertising firms. And banks have employed individuals or
firms to perform all kinds of administrative activities, including
armored car and other transportation services, guard services
and, in many cases, other mechanical services needed to run
the banks' buildings. It is not expected that the bank supervisory agencies would find it necessary to examine or regulate
any of these agents or representatives of a bank, except under
the most unusual circumstances. The authority is intended to
be limited to banking functions as such.
"The committee is aware also that, during emergencies and
short periods of unusually heavy work, performance of bank
services by outside organizations may be necessary and may
involve no problems from the point of view of bank examination and supervision. The committee expects the bank supervisory agencies to make sure that the authority vested in them
under the bill and their general supervisory authority are
exercised with this need in mind."




Termination of Proceeding Regarding
Adequacy of Capital Funds
The Board of Governors, on October 30, 1962,
issued an Order terminating the administrative
proceeding involving The Continental Bank and
Trust Company, Salt Lake City, Utah. The text
of the Order is as follows:
THE CONTINENTAL BANK AND TRUST
COMPANY, SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH
In the matter of The Continental Bank and
Trust Company, Salt Lake City, Utah.

LAW DEPARTMENT
not require it to surrender its stock in the Federal
Reserve Bank of San Francisco and to forfeit all
rights and privileges of membership in the Federal Reserve System for failure to comply with the
Bank's Condition of Membership No. 2; which
provides:
"The net capital and surplus funds of such bank
shall be adequate in relation to the character and
condition of its assets and to its deposit liabilities and
other corporate responsibilities, and its capital shall
not be reduced except with the permission of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System."
The Show Cause Hearing was held before a
duly appointed Hearing Examiner on October 29,
1962, the record of such hearing was closed on
the same date by the Hearing Examiner, and such
record has been certified by the Hearing Examiner
to the Board.
The record so certified contains a letter addressed by the Bank to the Board under date of
October 9, 1962, enclosing a resolution of its
Board of Directors which sets forth a plan for increasing the Bank's capital accounts. In substance
that plan provides:
1. By the end of 1962 the capital, surplus, undivided profits, and unapplied reserve accounts
of the Bank will be increased to a total of not less
than $6,500,000, which will require a cash increase of not less than $1,111,000 over the June
30, 1962 total of these accounts.
2. This cash increase of $1,111,000 in its capital structure will be accomplished by the Bank in
the following manner:
a. The issuance and sale of additional common
stock for cash in the amount of $540,000; and
b. Cash dividends from the two wholly owned
building subsidiaries of the Bank; cash proceeds
of the liquidation of the Paramount Life Insurance Company of Texas; and the declaration of a
stock dividend in lieu of the Bank's 1962 year-end
cash dividend, the total of such dividends and
proceeds of liquidation amounting to $571,000.
3. This $1,111,000 cash increase in the Bank's
capital structure will be allocated as follows:
$810,000 to capital stock,
$270,000 to surplus, and
$31,000 to undivided profits and/or reserves.
4. Upon the accomplishment of this capital increase the Bank will have:




Capital stock
Surplus
Undivided profits
Reserves

$3,510,000
1,700,000
505,000
785,000

$6,500,000
In addition the Bank's letter of October 9, 1962,
represented that the Bank would continue to improve its capital structure through net retained
earnings.
The Board has considered the fact that during
the period between the aforesaid July 18, 1960
Order and the June 30, 1962 Report of Condition
the Bank had increased its capital accounts by
$388,530 from retained earnings, which together
with the additional $1,111,000 will result in a total
capital account increase since July 18, 1960 of
$1,499,530. The Board has further considered
such changes as have occurred since July 18, 1960
in the amount, character, and condition of the
Bank's assets and in its deposit liabilities and other
corporate responsibilities. The Board has also
noted that through earnings retained since the
commencement of this proceeding in 1956, the
Bank had increased its capital structure as of June
30, 1962 from $3,488,202 to $5,389,350. With
the addition of the aforesaid $1,111,000 by year
end 1962, the Bank will have increased its capital structure by somewhat more than $3,000,000
since the commencement of this proceeding.
On the basis of these considerations the Board
addressed a letter to the Bank dated October 11,
1962, which is a part of the certified record,
stating that accomplishment of the plan set forth
by the Bank would constitute sufficient cause for
terminating this proceeding.
Accordingly, the Board finds that, in the light
of the Bank's current capital condition as reflected by the latest report of examination of the
Bank, and by the Bank's latest reports of condition and of income and dividends, the anticipated
accomplishment within a reasonable period of
time of the actions to increase the Bank's capital
funds, as described in the resolution of the Bank's
Board of Directors enclosed with the said letter
from the Bank dated October 9, 1962, constitutes
sufficient cause for termination of this proceeding.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the capital adequacy
proceeding involving the Bank, originally instituted by the Board's Order of June 29, 1956,
and culminating in the Board's Order to Show

Board, for good cause shown, may hereafter specify, the Bank shall not have furnished the Board
with satisfactory evidence that the Bank has substantially accomplished the actions described in

Orders Under Bank Merger Act
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System has issued the following Orders and Statements with respect to applications for approval
of mergers of certain banks:
UNION TRUST COMPANY OF MARYLAND,
BALTIMORE, MARYLAND
In the matter of the application of Union Trust
Company of Maryland for approval of merger
with The Liberty Bank.
ORDER APPROVING MERGER OF BANKS

There has come before the Board of Governors,
pursuant to the Bank Merger Act of 1960 (12
U.S.C. 1828(c)), an application by Union Trust
Company of Maryland, Baltimore, Maryland, a
member bank of the Federal Reserve System, for
prior approval by the Board of the merger of that
bank and The Liberty Bank, Easton, Maryland,
under the charter and title of the former. As an
incident to the merger, the three offices of The
Liberty Bank would be operated as branches of
the Union Trust Company of Maryland. Notice




[SEAL]
STATEMENT

Union Trust Company of Maryland, Baltimore,
Maryland ("Union Trust"), with deposits of
$286.6 million as of December 30, 1961 (adjusted for two mergers heretofore consummated
in 1962), has applied, pursuant to the Bank
Merger Act (12 U.S.C. 1828(c)), for prior approval by the Board of the merger of that bank
and The Liberty Bank, Easton, Maryland ("Liberty Bank"), with deposits of $7 million as of the
same date. The banks would merge under the
charter and title of Union Trust, which is a Statechartered member bank of the Federal Reserve
System, and the three offices of Liberty Bank
would become branches of Union Trust, increasing the number of offices of Union Trust from
35 to 38.
Under the Act, the Board is required to consider (1) the financial history and condition of
each of the banks involved, (2) the adequacy of
its capital structure, (3) its earnings prospects,
(4) the general character of its management, (5)
whether its corporate powers are consistent with
the purposes of 12 U.S.C, Ch. 16 (the Federal

LAW DEPARTMENT
Deposit Insurance Act), (6) the convenience and
needs of the communities to be served, and (7)
the effect of the transaction on competition (including any tendency toward monopoly). The
Board may not approve the transaction unless,
after considering all these factors, it finds the
transaction to be in the public interest.
Banking factors. The financial history of Union
Trust is satisfactory, its asset condition is sound,
and its capital structure is adequate. Its management is good and its earnings prospects are
favorable. The financial history of Liberty Bank
is also satisfactory; however, its financial condition is only fair, its earnings have been below
average, and its capital structure is less than desirable. Liberty Bank has a serious management succession problem which this merger would correct.
This transaction would have the effect of adding
management strength and of establishing a basis
for improved earnings that does not presently exist
on the part of the offices of Liberty Bank. No
indication exists that there is or would be any
inconsistency with the purposes of 12 U.S.C., Ch.
16.
Convenience and needs of the communities.
Thirty-three of the offices of Union Trust are in
Baltimore or within twenty miles of the city limits
(city population 939,000 and metropolitan area
population 1,785,000). The other two are in Salisbury (city population about 16,300 and trade area
population of 225,000) on the Eastern Shore of
Maryland. The main office of Liberty Bank is in
Easton (city population about 6,300), which is 60
miles from Baltimore and 45 miles from Salisbury.
There is a branch of Liberty Bank in Trappe, 8
miles south of Easton, and one in Hillsboro, 15
miles northeast of Easton.
The merger would affect principally those people living in the service area of Liberty Bank.
The Hillsboro and Trappe offices of Liberty Bank
would offer a number of new banking services
and the Easton office would become another
source of certain services. For example, larger
loans, consumer loans, and trust services would
be available at all three.
Competition. The nearest offices of the two
banks involved in this proposal are those at
Trappe and Salisbury, 38 miles apart. There are
several other banking offices in the area between
these offices of Liberty Bank and Union Trust.
This merger would have little, if any, effect upon




1433
them. The service areas of Union Trust and Liberty Bank do not overlap, and each draws only a
negligible amount of business from the area of
the other. There is virtually no competition between them.
The small banks in the areas surrounding
Easton, Trappe, and Hillsboro serve principally
their own communities and would probably not
be perceptibly affected by this merger. Upon
consummation of this merger there would be in
Easton one branch of Union Trust (third largest
bank in Maryland), two branches of Maryland
National Bank (the largest bank in the State),
and one unit bank, The Talbot Bank of Easton.
The proposed transaction would probably have no
deleterious effect upon competition in Easton.
Consummation of this proposal would cause
Union Trust to hold only .2 per cent more of the
total commercial bank deposits of Maryland, and
its position as third largest bank in the State would
not change.
Summary and conclusion. There is little, if
any, competition between Liberty Bank and Union
Trust which would be eliminated by this merger,
and the over-all effect upon competition for other
banks in the area should not be appreciably adverse. This merger would not materially increase
Union Trust's percentage of total bank deposits
in Maryland, and its relative size among the banks
in the State would not change. Consummation of
the proposal would not only provide the people
within the service area of Liberty Bank with
broader banking services but would also solve the
management succession and capital problems of
Liberty Bank.
Accordingly, the Board finds the proposed
merger to be in the public interest.

Act of 1960 (12 U.S.C. 1828(c)), for prior approval by the Board of the merger of that bank
and Lake County State Bank, East Gary, Indiana
("Lake County Bank"), with deposits of about
$4.3 million.* The banks would merge under the
charter of Gary Trust, which is a state-chartered
member bank of the Federal Reserve System, and
under the title of Bank of Indiana. Bank of Indiana
would have five offices as it would continue the
three offices of Gary Trust and the two offices of
* As of March 26, 1962.




Lake County Bank would become branches of
Bank of Indiana.
Under the Act, the Board is required to consider (1) the financial history and condition of
each of the banks involved, (2) the adequancy of
its capital structure, (3) its future earnings prospects, (4) the general character of its management,
(5) whether its corporate powers are consistent
with the purposes of 12 U.S.C, Ch. 16 (the Federal Deposit Insurance Act), (6) the convenience
and needs of the community to be served, and
(7) the effect of the transaction on competition
(including any tendency toward monopoly). The
Board may not approve the transaction unless,
after considering all these factors, it finds the
transaction to be in the public interest.
Banking factors. The financial condition and
capital structure of each of the banks are satisfactory, as would be true of the resulting bank.
The earnings prospects of the resulting bank would
be satisfactory. Lake County Bank's management
succession problem would be relieved by the management of Gary Trust.
There is no indication that the powers of either
of the banks are or would be inconsistent with
12 U.S.C, Ch. 16.
Convenience and needs of the communities.
Gary, Indiana (1960 population about 178,000),
is a growing industrial city situated on Lake Michigan and is one of the leading steel producing areas
in the United States. The steel industry provides
employment for over one-half of the Gary labor
force. Banking services in Gary are supplied by
Gary National Bank, by far the largest bank in
the metropolitan area, which operates twelve offices, and Gary Trust, which operates three offices.
Lake County Bank has its main office in East
Gary (1960 population about 9,300) and operates
a branch at Hobart (1960 population about
18,600) located to the south of East Gary. These
communities are mostly residential in character
and the principal employment is provided by the
nearby steel plants.
The proposed merger would provide home owners, small businessmen, and salaried individuals,
which constitute the population of the East Gary
area, with more complete and broader banking
services.
Competition. Although East Gary and Hobart
are contiguous to Gary, there is little overlapping

1435

LAW DEPARTMENT
of the service areas of the two banks involved
in this merger. The main offices of Gary Trust
and Lake Couny Bank are seven miles apart and
no offices of the respective banks are closer than
four miles to each other. There appears to be only
a small amount of competition between these
banks.
Gary National Bank has long been the dominant
institution in the Gary metropolitan area. This
bank operates 12 of the 17 offices operated by
the two Gary banks and the Lake County Bank,
and holds over 82 per cent of the IPC deposits
held by these three banks. Among its offices is
one in Hobart which now competes with a branch
of the much smaller Lake County Bank. Under
the proposal, the Hobart office of Lake County
Bank would become an office of the Bank of Indiana, and this should increase competition in the
Hobart area.
Since the present management of Gary Trust
acquired control of that bank about three and
one-half years go, the bank's deposits have increased from approximately $16 million to about
$25 million. Consummation of the proposal would
extend the services of that aggressive management
into a new area.
Summary and conclusion. Very little competition will be eliminated by this proposed merger,
and a basis would be provided for the resulting
bank, with stronger management, to compete more
aggressively and effectively with the much larger
bank which presently competes directly with both
of the merging banks. The proposed merger would
provide broader and more complete banking services in the City of East Gary.
Accordingly, the Board finds the proposed
merger to be in the public interest.

Bronxville.
ORDER APPROVING MERGER OF BANKS

There has come before the Board of Governors,
pursuant to the Bank Merger Act of 1960 (12
U.S.C. 1828 (c)), an application by The County




Trust Company, White Plains, New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, for the Board's
prior approval of the merger of that bank and

National would be operated as branches of County
Trust. Notice of the proposed merger, in form
approved by the Board, has been published pursuant to said Act.
Upon consideration of all relevant material in
the light of the factors set forth in said Act, including reports furnished by the Comptroller of the
Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Department of Justice on the competitive factors involved in the proposed merger,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, for the reasons set forth

STATEMENT

The County Trust Company, White Plains,
Westchester County, New York ("County Trust"),
with deposits of $516.2 million,* has applied,
pursuant to the Bank Merger Act of 1960 (12
U.S.C. 1828 (c)), for prior approval by the
Board of the merger of that bank and The Gramatan National Bank and Trust Company of
Bronxville, Bronxville, Westchester County, New
York ("Gramatan"), with deposits of $16.2 million.* The banks would merge under the charter
and title of County Trust, which is a member
State bank of the Federal Reserve System. As an
incident to the merger, the two offices of Gramatan National would become branches of County
!

As of December 31, 1961.

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

Trust, increasing the number of offices of County
Trust from 43 to 45.
Under the Act, the Board is required to consider (1) the financial history and condition of
each of the banks involved, (2) the adequacy
of its capital structure, (3) its future earnings
prospects, (4) the general character of its management, (5) whether its corporate powers are
consistent with the purposes of 12 U.S.C. Ch. 16
(Federal Deposit Insurance Act), (6) the convenience and needs of the community to be
served, and (7) the effect of the transaction on
competition (including any tendency toward monopoly). The Board may not approve the transaction unless, after considering all these factors,
it finds the transaction to be in the public interest.
Banking factors. The financial history of each
bank is satisfactory. Both have sound financial
conditions, adequate capital structures, and the
future earnings prospects of County Trust are
favorable. This would be true also of the resulting bank, which would be under the competent
management of County Trust. Gramatan, with
a good earnings record, is facing a management
succession problem as the bank's chief executive
officer has announced his intention to retire this
year, and efforts thus far to find a qualified successor have not been fruitful. This situation is
complicated by virtue of the unusual lending operations of Gramatan, which consist mostly of
instalment loans originating outside Westchester
County. Consummation of the proposal would not
only solve Gramatan's management problem, but
the resulting arrangement would provide more
local use of banking resources at the two offices
now operated by Gramatan.
There is no indication that the powers of either
of the banks are or would be inconsistent with
12 U.S.C, Ch. 16.
Convenience and needs of the communities.
Westchester County is a rapidly growing area
which adjoins New York City on the north. The
county, which had a population of about 809,000
in 1960, is primarily residential, although it has
experienced important business growth in recent
years. Continued substantial growth both in population and business is expected. The proposed
merger would have little effect on the convenience
and needs of the communities now served by
County Trust, which has its main office and six
of its branches in White Plains (population 50,-




485 in 1960), county seat of Westchester County.
County Trust's 36 other branches are located in
most of the larger towns and villages in Westchester County.
Gramatan's main office and one branch are
located in the Village of Bronxville (population
of 6,744 in 1960) about nine miles south of White
Plains. The bank's service area, i.e., the area from
which it derives more than 75 per cent of its
deposits by individuals, partnerships, and corporations ("IPC deposits"), is principally residential and includes portions of the adjacent communities of Eastchester, Tuckahoe, Yonkers, and
Mt. Vernon, and has an estimated population of
40,000.
Gramatan, as noted previously, has not provided
all normal banking services to Bronxville and
environs. For many years about 90 per cent of
the bank's loan portfolio has consisted of instalment loans originating, not in Westchester County,
but in the eastern and southeastern parts of the
United States. Such loans as are made by Gramatan within the Bronxville area carry higher
interest rates than do similar loans at County
Trust; and consequently, consummation of the
proposed merger would provide to the Bronxville area a source of credit at lower rates, and
would eliminate the "home office protection"
which under New York law, now prevents other
banks from establishing new branches in Bronxville. The result should be increased competition
and improved banking services in the Bronxville
area.
Competition. Gramatan's unusual type of operation has minimized its competitive ability and little
competition exists between it and County Trust.
Nine commercial banks with head offices in
Westchester County are currently operating 65
banking offices, and two of these have a total of
six branches approved but not yet opened. Four
New York City banks, three of which are in the
multi-billion dollar deposit category, are currently operating seven branch offices in the county
and two of these have eight additional offices approved but not yet opened.
County Trust is the largest commercial bank
with head office in Westchester County. If the
proposed merger were consummated, County Trust
would hold 49 per cent of the IPC deposits in
the county held by commercial banks. This would

1437

LAW DEPARTMENT
be an increase of only 1.6 per cent, however; and
County Trust's size has had no adverse effect
upon the other county-headquartered banks, which
now hold a larger percentage of commercial banking business in the county than they held at the
end of 1956. Five of these other banks show a
much higher rate of growth than County Trust.
The movement of New York City banks into the
area weakens any tendency toward dominance of
county banking by County Trust.
Following the proposed merger, there would
remain numerous alternative banking offices in
or near to Gramatan's present service area, including ten branches of three banks with home offices
in Westchester County and two branches of large
New York City banks. Consummation of the proposal also would terminate the "home office protection" now prevailing in Bronxville, as noted
above; and this would likely result in increased
competition. Applications for branches by banks
not presently operating offices in Bronxville have
been filed, contingent on consummation of this
merger.
Summary and conclusion. The slight increase in

banking concentration that would result from the
proposed merger would be more than offset by
the positive benefits that would flow therefrom.
The elimination of the "home office protection"
presently existing in Bronxville can be expected
to result in increased competition. Moreover, the
share of commercial bank deposists in Westchester
County held by County Trust and Gramatan has
declined during the past five years. This, together
with the present activity of New York City banks
in establishing branches in Westchester County,
substantially lessens any tendency toward dominance of county banking by County Trust.
Such slight competition as exists between County
Trust and Gramatan consist primarily of competition for deposits and not for loans, largely because of Gramatan's emphasis on instalment loans
originating outside of Westchester County. The
proposed merger would not only solve the management succession problem at Gramatan, which
is closely related to the bank's unusual type of
business, but would enable County Trust to provide a full range of banking services at the present offices of Gramatan.
Accordingly, the Board finds the proposed
merger to be in the public interest.

Virginia Corporation for approval of the acquisition of voting shares of Southern Bank of Norfolk,
Norfolk; Peoples's Bank, Mount Jackson; Shenandoah County Bank and Trust Company, Woodstock.
ORDER APPROVING APPLICATIONS
UNDER BANK HOLDING COMPANY ACT

There have come before the Board of Governors, pursuant to Section 3(a) (2) of the Bank

STATEMENT

The First Virginia Corporation ("First" or "Applicant"), Arlington, Virginia, a registered bank
holding company, has filed three separate applications, pursuant to Section 3 (a) (2) of the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956 ("the Act"), for
the Board's approval of the acquisition of 80 per
cent or more of the outstanding voting shares of
each of the following banks in Virginia:
(1) Southern Bank of Norfolk, Norfolk
("Southern-Norfolk");
(2) Peoples' Bank, Mount Jackson ("Peoples'Mt. Jackson"); and
(3) Shenandoah County Bank and Trust Company, Woodstock ("Woodstock Bank").
Statutory factors. With respect to each such
acquisition, Section 3(c) of the Act requires the
Board to take into consideration the following
five factors: (1) the financial history and condition of the holding company and bank concerned;
(2) their prospects; (3) the character of their
management; (4) the convenience, needs, and welfare of the communities and the area concerned;
and (5) whether the effect of the acquisition would
be to expand the size or extent of the bank holding company system involved beyond limits consistent with adequate and sound banking, the
public interest, and the preservation of competition in the field of banking.
The Board has deemed it appropriate to consider the three instant applications together, particularly because of possible interrelations between
them in weighing their competitive effects under
the fifth statutory factor. Considerations relating
to the holding company's financial history and
condition, prospects, and management are, in gen-




eral, equally applicable in all three instances.
Similar considerations with respect to each of the
banks involved, as well as considerations relating
to the fourth and fifth statutory factors, require
separate treatment.
First Virginia Corporation. First presently controls 6 banks, all in Virginia, having a total of 22
offices and total deposits of $116 million,* taking
into account First's subsequent acquisition of
Richmond Bank and Trust Company and the
consolidation in 1962 of Mount Vernon Bank and
Trust Company with Old Dominion National
Bank of Fairfax County (now Mount Vernon
National Bank and Trust Company of Fairfax
County). Of the system's total deposits, about
$47 million are held by Old Dominion Bank, Arlington. The three subsidiaries other than those
already mentioned are The National Bank of
Manassas, Manassas; The Purcellville National
Bank, Purcellville; and Falls Church Bank, Falls
Church.
Consideration of the financial condition and
history, the prospects, and the management of
First and of its system as a whole, discloses nothing
that would weigh materially for or against approval
of the present applications. In its Statement on the
denial of First's application to acquire stock of
Farmers and Merchants National Bank, Winchester, Virginia, the Board expressed views adverse to the two-class stock structure of First,
principally on the ground that it represented an
inequitable distribution of voting power among
the corporation's stockholders (1962 F. R. BULLETIN, page 1163). Since that time, the stockholders of First have approved amendments to
the Articles of Incorporation resulting in conversion to a single class of stock with uniform rights
and privileges, thereby removing this problem.
First's financial history and condition are satisfactory and would be expected to continue to be
so whether or not the proposed acquisitions were
consummated. First's banks have been operated
soundly and successfully. The prospects of the
system as presently constituted are satisfactory
and the addition of the proposed subsidiaries
would not alter this conclusion.
Southern Bank, Norfolk. Southern-Norfolk,
with about $27 million in total deposits or about
* Unless otherwise stated, all figures herein are as
of December 31, 1961.

LAW DEPARTMENT
9 per cent of the total for the City of Norfolk,
has 9 banking offices, all located in the city. The
bank is strongly capitalized. Norfolk is a major
commercial port of the United States, contains
a very large naval installation, and has experienced steady and considerable growth. However,
Southern-Norfolk does not appear to have shared
in the benefits of such growth to the same extent
as the other Norfolk banks, or to have expanded
proportionately its scope and capacity to serve the
growing needs of the area. The fact that Southern-Norfolk is the smallest bank with offices in
the city may have some bearing on this situation,
but it appears that the bank has remained relatively
stationary more from a lack of progressive management policies than from other circumstances.
In summary, the financial history and condition, prospects, and management factors as to
Southern-Norfolk are not such as to indicate that
the bank cannot continue its sound operation independently, but strengthened management, together with a vitalization of policies and services
would improve the bank's prospects. The assistance that First proposes to provide in these respects is therefore a consideration favorable to
approval of the acquisition of Southern-Norfolk.
The three other banks with offices in Norfolk
and their total deposits as of year-end 1961 are
National Bank of Commerce—$197 million, The
Seaboard Citizens National Bank—$72 million,
and Bank of Virginia—$151 million (for all offices; only three of its 17 branches are located in
Norfolk). It is not shown by Applicant that the
banking needs of the Norfolk area are not being
conveniently met. On the other hand, the auspices
for economic growth in the Norfolk area are considered especially favorable. There is reason to
believe that the demand for credit and other banking service will make full use of the potential as
well as the present capacity of the area's banks.
Thus, the assistance that First proposes to provide to Southern-Norfolk would make an affirmative contribution to the convenience, needs, and
welfare of the Norfolk area, both directly and also
indirectly through making Southern-Norfolk a
more effective competitor. The extent to which
support will be provided by First either in the
long or short run cannot be anticipated with certainty, but the likelihood that it will be provided
and that it will be of positive benefit to the area




1439
is sufficient under the fourth statutory factor to
weigh in favor of approval of this application.
With respect to competitive effects, the proposed acquisition of Southern-Norfolk should tend
to intensify banking competition in a beneficial
way, in view of Southern-Norfolk's history and
present relative size. While Southern-Norfolk does
have nine offices in Norfolk, it is clear enough
that its affiliation with the holding company should
on the whole tend towards a balancing of competitive strength rather than the contrary.
Present subsidiaries of First draw a small
amount of business from Norfolk, and SouthernNorfolk holds some loan and deposit accounts
originating in the areas served by First's banks.
However, the extent of present competition between Southern-Norfolk and subsidiaries of First
is not consequential in terms of the total business
of any of the banks involved, and even less so
in terms of the total business of banks in the
competitive areas involved. The nearest office
of a First bank to Southern-Norfolk is that of
Richmond Bank & Trust Company, some 90 miles
distant, and it appears that the elimination of
neither present nor potential competition between
Southern-Norfolk and First's present subsidiaries
is a significant concern in connection with the
proposed acquisition.
Peoples* Bank, Mount Jackson. Peoples'-Mt.
Jackson, with deposits of $2.8 million, has its only
office in Mount Jackson, Shenandoah County. Its
primary service area (wherein 75 per cent or more
of its total deposits originate) is the town of
Mount Jackson and the surrounding agricultural
area within a radius of approximately eight miles,
having a population of about 12,000. The County's
population of about 22,000 has been stable for
years, as has the population of Mount Jackson,
now about 720. The County generally is rural in
nature, with about 11 per cent of its population employed in small industries.
Peoples' Bank is adequately capitalized and has
been soundly operated. Its growth has been somewhat slow as compared with other banks in the
area, but the bank's financial history and condition are generally satisfactory. As a subsidiary,
the bank would have the benefit of First's auditing
program.
In view of the relatively stable economy of the
present and potential service areas of the bank,
it could reasonably anticipate maintaining a sound

1440

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

condition, but its prospects for profit and growth
are naturally somewhat dependent on continuity
of competent management. The operation of the
bank since 1959 reflects the capable leadership of
its present chief executive officer. There is some
question as to how long the bank as a small independent institution would be able to retain his
services, and the bank anticipates some difficulty
in providing satisfactory management succession.
It appears that First would be able to provide useful assistance in this regard, as well as with respect
to the bank's lending and investment policies. Accordingly, considerations as to both prospects and
management of the bank are somewhat favorable
to the acquisition of Peoples'-Mt. Jackson by First.
There is little, if any, evidence that the banking
needs of the Mount Jackson area are not now
being conveniently and adequately served. The
stability of the economy argues against a significant present demand for expanded facilities or
services. Two other smaller banks, with one office
each, are located within Peoples'-Mt. Jackson's
primary service area, and the Applicant states that
the other four banks in the County compete for
business from that area to some extent, although
the largest of these four has only about $4.2 million in deposits, and they are from 14 to 25 miles
distant from Mount Jackson. However, it appears
that the holding company affiliation might help to
stimulate the economy of the area and thereby
promote the welfare of its people. This prospect
provides some support for approval of the proposed acquisition of the bank by First, although
such support is limited by the absence of a showing of present or potential inadequancy of banking facilities.
It does not appear that the acquisition of
Peoples'-Mt. Jackson by First and the proposed
benefits of the affiliation would have the effect
of giving the bank an undue advantage over
its competitors, the nearest of which are about
seven miles distant. While all the banks in the
County are relatively small, the limited demand
for services that they cannot independently provide and the nature of banking in the area limit
accordingly the advantages of affiliation with a
banking system of much greater resources. Thus,
it does not appear that competition would be intensified for the remaining independent banks in
such a way as to be harmful to them or to the
general health of banking competition in the area.




The amount of existing or potential competition
between Peoples'-Mt. Jackson and present subsidiaries of First appears to be negligible. The nearest office of a First subsidiary is that of Purcellville National Bank, approximately 71 miles distant. The proposed acquisition would not by itself
reduce alternative sources of banking service to
a material extent.
For the reasons stated, the Board is of the
opinion that the acquisition of Peoples'-Mt. Jackson alone would not have a significant adverse
effect on competition in the Mount Jackson area.
Possible elimination of competition among the
three proposed subsidiaries if the acquisitions are
consummated must also be considered. Southern Norfolk serves an area remote from both Peoples'Mt. Jackson and Woodstock Bank, so that competitive considerations as to the Norfolk area
need not be related to the other two acquisitions.
Woodstock Bank and Peoples', on the other hand,
are both located in Shenandoah County, about
14 miles apart. Accordingly, the competitive relationship of those two banks and the effects of
the acquisition of both will be discussed following
a discussion of the Woodstock Bank proposal in
the light of other statutory considerations.
Shenandoah County Bank and Trust Company,
Woodstock. Woodstock Bank, with one office and
total deposits of $3.6 million, is located in Shenandoah County, about 30 miles southwest of Winchester and 14 miles northeast of Mount Jackson.
The bank's trade area is predominantly agricultural with a relatively stable economy. The bank
has been operated soundly and conservatively. In
the five years ending with 1961, the bank's rate
of growth in deposits was the next to lowest among
the seven banks in the County for the period
and in terms of dollar increase it ranked fifth,
but the bank is well capitalized, and in all probability could continue to be operated soundly as
an independent institution.
While there is no apparent need for the financial support of a holding company, Woodstock
Bank's performance indicates that its prospects
could be improved. While significant economic
expansion is not predicted for the area, it would
appear that the bank has not taken full advantage of existing opportunities within the scope of
conservative banking practice, particularly with
respect to lending policies, as to which First's ex-

LAW DEPARTMENT
perience and advice could be beneficial. The institution of an auditing program and the availability of trust and investment assistance from
First also also proposed contributions to the bank's
prospects.
The present management of Woodstock Bank
is competent. However, successor management
must be provided before long and, as with other
banks in the same size range, Woodstock Bank's
own capacity to provide it is limited. While this
is not in itself a strong reason for approval of the
acquisition of the bank by First, such added assurance of management continuity as the affiliation would provide is a favorable consideration.
As indicated, affiliation with First's holding company system should be of some benefit to Woodstock Bank with respect to its prospects and its
management. This benefit should in turn be reflected in benefit to those who are or may be served
by the bank. How important this is to the convenience, needs, and welfare of the community and
the area depends on the total availability of required banking service. In Woodstock itself ( population about 2,100), there is one other bank with
about $3 million in total deposits. Also located
in Woodstock Bank's primary service area is Farmers Bank of Edinburg (deposits of $1.8 million).
The other four banks in Shenandoah County compete within Woodstock Bank's primary service
area to a slight extent. Thus, there are banking
alternatives available to the Woodstock area, and
it does not appear from the evidence before the
Board that banking needs therein are not being
met with reasonable convenience. However, it
appears that the affiliation of Woodstock Bank
with First's system might tend to improve the
general level of banking service presently available and thereby be of benefit to the community.
The situation of Woodstock Bank is similar to
that of Peopdes'-Mt. Jackson in this respect.
The competitive situation of Woodstock Bank
in its own area is also somewhat similar to that of
Peoples'-Mt. Jackson. As noted above, there are
two other banks in the primary service area of
Woodstock Bank: National Bank of Woodstock
in Woodstock, and Farmers Bank of Edinburg,
about seven miles distant, which is also in the
primary service area of Peoples'-Mt. Jackson. Because of the competitor in Woodstock, the effects
on other banks of any improvement in Woodstock
Bank's competitive position would be more im-




1441
mediate than they would in the case of Peoples'Mt. Jackson, whose nearest competitor is about
seven miles away, but it would not appear that the
acquisition of Woodstock Bank by First would
have material adverse effects on competing banks.
Thus, as in the case of Peoples'-Mt. Jackson, the
Board believes that the acquisition by First of
Woodstock Bank alone would not have significant
adverse effects on competition in the Woodstock
area.
As for the combined effect on competition of
the acquisition of both Peoples'-Mt. Jackson and
Woodstock Bank by First, the two banks for the
most part serve their respective communities and
surrounding areas, although their primary service
areas overlap slightly in the area of Edinburg,
which is about midway between Mount Jackson
and Woodstock. Analysis indicates that the two
banks are alternative banking sources to some
extent for the areas they serve but, with the possible exception of loan business drawn by Peoples'
from the service area of Woodstock, the amount
of business drawn by each bank from the service
area of the other is not large, even as a proportion of each bank's own totals. In view of the other
alternative sources of banking service, including
the bank in Edinburg, another bank in Woodstock,
and the other banks in the County to a lesser
extent, the amount of active competition that
would be eliminated by First's acquisition of both
Peoples' and Woodstock Bank and the effect of
that elimination on banking competition in the
area generally cannot be regarded as substantial
in its importance to the public. The acquisition of
both Peoples'-Mt. Jackson and Woodstock Bank
by First would combine about 30 per cent of the
deposits and about 25 per cent of the loans of
the County's banks under common control. However, since the total volume of business of the
two banks is to a considerable degree drawn from
separate competitive areas, it is only a qualified
measure of concentration.
Having found that the competitive effects of
the proposed acquisitions of Peoples' and Woodstock Bank in their respective service areas are
not adverse to approval of the two applications
when considered independently, the Board finds
further that, while some competition between the
two banks would be eliminated by First's acquisition of both, that fact is not, in the general context
of banking competition and service in the area,

1442

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

sufficiently adverse to outweigh the other considerations noted as favorable to approval of each
application.
Conclusion. As indicated, the Board is of the
view that the proposed acquisitions would not expand the size of the holding company beyond
limits consistent with the preservation of competition in the field of banking in the local competitive areas principally concerned. Moreover, the
Board concludes that the proposed acquisitions
would not unduly expand the size or extent of
the holding company on either a regional or statewide basis, considering the size of the proposed
subsidiaries, their competitive range, and their
geographic distribution relative to each other and
to present subsidiaries of First. The three acquisitions would increase First's percentage of banking offices in the State from 3.5 to 5.3 and its
percentage of total banking deposits in the State
from 3.3 to 4.2. While First would, by these three
acquisitions, be extending its interest at a distance
from the area of its principal operations, this
would not appear to be inconsistent with adequate
and sound banking.
Upon consideration of all the relevant facts in
the light of the factors set forth in Section 3(c)
of the Act and the underlying purposes of the Act,
it is the Board's judgment that the proposed acquisitions would be consistent with the public interest
and that the three subject applications should be
approved.

STATEMENT

Virginia Commonwealth Corporation, Richmond, Virginia ("Applicant"), has applied, pursuant to Section 3(a)(l) of the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956 ("the Act"), for the Board's
prior approval of action that would result in
Applicant becoming a bank holding company—
namely, acquisition of more than 50 per cent of
the voting shares of The Bank of Virginia, Richmond, Virginia, with deposits of $151 million;*
The Bank of Henrico, Sandston, Virginia ("Henrico"), with deposits of $3.2 million; The Bank
* Unless otherwise indicated, deposit and loan figures herein stated are as of December 31, 1961.




of Salem, Salem, Virginia ("Salem"), with deposits
of $8.9 million; The Bank of Occoquan, Occoquan, Virginia ("Occoquan"), with deposits of
$6.4 million; and the Bank of Warwick, Newport
News, Virginia ("Warwick"), with deposits of
$15.2 million.
The Bank of Virginia is the fourth largest bank
in the State and would be the principal bank in
the proposed holding company system. With control of that bank and the four smaller banks, the
group would still rank fourth in total deposits,
although very close in size to the National Bank
of Commerce, of Norfolk, which would retain
third place.
The Bank of Virginia has 19 offices distributed
in five areas, in the Richmond metropolitan area,
in Petersburg, in Norfolk, in Newport News, and
in Roanoke. Acquisition of the bank in Occoquan
would give Applicant representation in the northern part of the State.
A chief admitted advantage to Bank of Virginia
from the formation of the proposed holding company system arises out of statutory restrictions on
further branching in Virginia. All of that Bank's
branches were acquired before a "freeze" imposed
by the State legislature in 1948. In 1962, the restriction was relaxed somewhat, but only to permit city banks to establish additional branches in
the city where the head office of the bank is located (in this case, in Richmond), or within five
miles of the city limits. As a result, Bank of Virginia can only establish more branches in the remaining areas of the State where it now has interests, or in other areas, through mergers.
Statutory factors. Section 3(c) of the Act requires the Board to take into consideration the
following five factors: (1) the financial history
and condition of the holding company and the
banks concerned; (2) their prospects; (3) the
character of their management; (4) the convenience, needs, and welfare of the communities and
area concerned; and (5) whether or not the effect
of the acquisitions would be to expand the size
or extent of the bank holding company system
involved beyond limits consistent with adequate
and sound banking, the public interest, and the
preservation of competition in the field of banking.
Banking factors. The financial history, condition, prospects, and management of the five banks
are satisfactory, as are the proposed financial
structure, proposed management, and prospects of

1444

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

the Applicant. Virginia Commonwealth Corporation was incorporated as a Virginia corporation on
January 11, 1962, for the purpose of acquiring
more than 50 per cent of the outstanding shares
of, and furnishing services to, the banks proposed
to be acquired by it. Its management is to be made
up largely of officers of the banks involved, who
are regarded as competent.
The Bank of Virginia was organized in 1922,
as a Morris Plan bank. Ten of its branches and
two facilities are located in the Richmond metropolitan area, three branches in Norfolk, and one
branch each in Portsmouth, Petersburg, Roanoke,
and Newport News. As of December 31, 1961,
Bank of Virginia had loans of $93 million.
Henrico was organized in 1957, with major
assistance from Bank of Virginia. It now operates
two branches, and the Virginia State Corporation
Commission has authorized the opening of an
additional branch. It offers general commercial
banking other than trust services, and had $2.4
million of loans on December 31, 1961.
Occoquan has its main office in the town of
Occoquan, and has three branches, all within
Prince William County, about 75 to 85 miles
north of Richmond. It is the third largest of the
five banks located in that county. The bank and
its branches are situated between Washington,
D. C , and Quantico, and the area is predominantly residential. It has loans of $3.8 million.
Salem was organized in 1891. The bank did
not operate any branches until 1961 when it established a branch in a shopping center in Roanoke
County adjacent to the city of Roanoke. Loans
outstanding total $6 million.
Warwick was organized in 1941 in what was
then the town of Hilton Village in Warwick
County. Subsequently the county became an incorporated city, and later was consolidated with
the city of Newport News. Warwick operates two
branches in Newport News and has made application for a branch to be located in adjacent York
County. Its total loans amount to $7.5 million.
As to the prospects of the proposed holding
company, Applicant argues that a notable economic surge forward which Virginia has made in
recent years requires, and will require, stronger
banking sources, and that creation of the bank
holding company system will help provide such
sources with a corresponding opportunity for
growth of the five banks as well as of Applicant.




In this connection, Applicant contends that the
holding company will better be able to raise the
capital needed to keep pace with industrial expansion in the State than could the individual banks.
It does not appear to the Board that it would
be substantially easier for the banks to raise capital
through the holding company system, as apparently
none of the banks has experienced difficulty in
the past in floating new issues of stock when
needed. On the other hand, basically, additional
capital is justified by deposit growth, and to the
extent that general improvements in management
and efficiency of the subsidiary banks promoted
deposited growth, their prospects would be improved.
Ready access to the automated equipment already installed by Bank of Virginia should also
improve the operating efficiency of the small banks
and facilitate their growth, thus improving their
prospects.
Turning to the third factor, the character of the
management of the Applicant and the banks concerned, it appears that Bank of Virginia has for
some years maintained a strong training program.
Through the extension of this program, Applicant
argues, it will be able to supply the smaller banks
with officers who are more qualified than those
which the banks individually could attract or
develop.
Against this contention, it can be urged that,
on Applicant's own showing, the present management of all the banks is satisfactory, and there is
no reason to suppose, except in the case of one of
them, which has recently had a management succession problem, that they will be unable to attract capable officers in the future. Despite past
performance in this regard, however, it would appear that since Applicant will be able to place
officers from the smaller banks for periods of
training in the more specialized departments of
the large bank, and can offer executives of the
smaller banks better opportunities of promotion,
and advantage would accrue to the smaller banks
under this factor.
Convenience and needs of communities. The
fourth factor, the convenience, needs, and welfare
of the communities and the areas concerned, is
of course intimately interwoven with the first
three. Additional arguments which have been
brought forward under the fourth factor include
the fact that Bank of Virginia has a sizable and

LAW DEPARTMENT
active trust department, and Applicant plans to
make expert advice and guidance in the trust field
available to the smaller banks, although it does
not propose to establish trust departments in the
three which have none. A second point made by
Applicant is that the greater ease of arranging
participations within the holding company system
would have the effect of raising the effective (although not the legal) lending limit of its subsidiary banks.
While the contemplated guidance on trust matters would be of some assistance to the smaller
banks and to their communities, the scale of their
future operations will probably not justify much
trust activity. As to the second point, the smaller
banks have been able to arrange participations with
correspondent banks, particularly with Bank of
Virginia, when needed, and should be able to
continue doing so were they to remain independent
of the system.
Competitive effect. The final factor, whether the
effect of the proposed transaction would be to
expand the size or extent of the bank holding company involved beyond limits consistent with adequate and sound banking, the public interest, and
the preservation of competition in the field of
banking, is more difficult to analyze. However,
the Board is of the opinion that the proposed
holding company system will remain well within
limits consistent with adequate and sound banking, and so far, will be consistent with the public
interest.
Applicant's banks would have about 5 per cent
of the offices and deposits of all banks in the State.
In the areas where more than one of the proposed
subsidiaries have offices, the group's proportion
of deposits would be about 10 per cent in the case
of the Roanoke and Salem banks and 11 per cent
of banks in the Richmond metropolitan area. In
Newport News, the subsidiary banks would have
about 26 per cent of combined bank deposits,
considerably less than that of the largest bank in
the city. The merger of that bank with First and
Merchant's National Bank of Richmond, on October 31, 1962, will make it a branch of the largest
bank in the State.
On the question whether there will be a significant lessening of competition in the field of banking as a result of approval, the Department of
Justice has urged that




1445
"The proposed formation of a holding company, which standing alone may appear of not
too great significance, may actually be the
incipient step which will trigger other and more
substantial conglomerations resulting in Virginia banking in every community being dominated by a small number of large holding companies with a consequent diminution in the
number of smaller, locally controlled banks."
The Board agrees with the inference in the
statement by the Department of Justice that the
lessening of present competition which is likely
to result from the proposed acquisitions is not sufficient to require denial of the application. Occoquan is about 85 miles from Richmond, and there
is no existing competition between Occoquan and
Bank of Virginia. In the case of Henrico, the
close relationship with Bank of Virginia, as well
as the location of Henrico in suburbs of the city,
where the larger bank is not represented, has forestalled the development of competition between
them.
In the case of Salem, Applicant urges with some
reason that the degree of existing competition with
the Roanoke branch of Bank of Virginia is slight
and due to special, self-terminating factors.
As to Warwick, the $1.05 million of deposits
and $.9 million of loans of Bank of Virginia's
Newport News branch which originate in the primary service area of Warwick are equivalent to
6.9 per cent of the deposits and 12.2 per cent of
the loans of the Bank of Warwick. The deposits
and loans of Warwick which orginate in the primary service area of Bank of Virginia's branch are
less significant from the competitive point of view,
as five commercial depositors, two of whom are
directors of Warwick, account for about $.3 million of the $.35 million of such deposits, and three
commercial customers, two of whom are directors, account for about 85 per cent of the $.2
million of such loans.
In addition, the size and number of alternative
banking sources which would remain would tend
to mitigate the lessening of competition which can
be expected to result from approval.
The statement that approval of this application
will "trigger other and more substantial conglomerations," as urged by the Department of Justice, seems to imply that approval will in some
fashion commit the Board to approving future ap-

1446

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • NOVEMBER 1962

plications. But it is the statutory duty of the Board
to determine the point at which a line should
be drawn, deterring further concentration of banking facilities, and it has done so. In one recent
case, the matter of the application of Morgan New
York State Corporation, where the proposed system would have included the fifth largest bank in
New York City, and six of the largest banks in
the respective upstate New York areas, thus widening the competitive gap between the larger and the
smaller banks in the cities concerned, the Board
found that this prospective result compelled the
conclusion that formation of the holding company
would have adverse consequences for the competitive banking structure of the State and required
denial. (48 F. R. BULLETIN 567, May 1962)
Approval of the application of First Bancorporation of Florida similarly would have united four
powerful banks already "strongly entrenched" in
the State's four largest metropolitan areas. The
Board found that since "Among relatively large
and aggressive banks competing for the business
of sophisticated customers such as other banks,
small advantages can be decisive," it was "probable that the competitive ability of the remaining
major correspondent banks would be seriously
diminished" and denied the application. (48 F. R.
BULLETIN 979 at 982, August 1962)
By contrast, the proposed holding company
would not be the dominant banking institution in
any area in which it operated. Four of the banks
are relatively small, and there would be no change
in the relative rank of the principal State banking
organizations as a result of approval.




While the shoe industry is, of course, different
from the banking industry, it may be relevant to
note that in its recent decision in Brown Shoe Co.
v. United States, the Supreme Court found that
supporters of the 1954 amendment to Section 7
of the Clayton Act "indicated that it would not
impede, for example, a merger between two small
companies to enable the combination to compete
more effectively with larger corporations dominating the relevant market" and held that "Congress
indicated plainly that a merger had to be functionally viewed, in the context of its particular industry." Indeed, the Court described as a "mitigating
factor" a "demonstrated need for combination to
enable small companies to enter into a more meaningful competition with those dominating the relevant markets." (370 U.S. 294 at 319, 321-322, 346
(June 25, 1962)) In the present case, uniting the
four smaller banks with Bank of Virginia should
enable all these banks to compete more effectively,
both with the larger banks in their own areas and
with the powerful Richmond and out-of-state
banks which are now active in the Virginia banking field. Nor under all the circumstances does it
appear that the remaining smaller independent
banks would be adversely affected.
Viewing the relevant facts in the light of the
general purposes of the Act and the factors enumerated in Section 3(c), as well as the cited opinion of the Supreme Court, it is the judgment of the
Board that the proposed acquisitions would be
consistent with the statutory objectives and the
public interest and that the application should be
granted.

Announcements
APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTOR

On November 8, 1962, the Board of Governors
announced the appointment of Max P. Heavenrich, Jr., of Saginaw, Michigan, as a director of
the Detroit Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank
of Chicago, for the unexpired portion of a term
ending December 31, 1963. Mr. Heavenrich is
President and General Manager, Heavenrich Bros,
and Co., Saginaw. As a director of the Detroit
Branch he succeeds Mr. Carl A. Gerstacker,
Chairman of the Board, The Dow Chemical
Company, Midland, Michigan, who recently resigned.
CHANGES IN BOARD'S STAFF

Effective October 19, 1962, Mr. Albert R. Koch,
an Adviser in the Division of Research and Statistics since January 1960, was appointed Associate Director, and Mr. Daniel H. Brill, an Associate Adviser in the Division since January 1960,
was appointed an Adviser.
RESERVE REQUIREMENTS

On October 18, 1962, the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System announced a reduction from 5 per cent to 4 per cent in the
reserves against savings and time deposits that
member banks are required to maintain with
Federal Reserve Banks. The reduction in requirements became effective at the beginning of the
next reserve computation periods, October 25,
1962, for reserve city banks and November 1,
1962, for all other member banks.
This action reduced member bank required reserves by an estimated $767 million—$410 million at reserve city banks and $357 million at all
other member banks. The release of these reserves, coming at this time, will assist in meeting
the heavy seasonal needs for reserves that the




banking system experiences in the closing months
of the year. In addition, the reserves thus supplied will help in providing for the longer-term
growth in bank deposits needed to facilitate the
expansion of economic activity and trade.
Reserves supplied in this manner substitute for
a corresponding amount of reserves supplied
through Federal Reserve purchases of Government securities in the open market, most of
which, because of the characteristics of the market, would necessarily be in short-term securities.
Thus, this method of supplying reserves will
minimize downward pressures from System purchases upon short-term market rates, which is
desirable in the present circumstances in order
to keep incentives for short-term capital flows
abroad from becoming stronger. In addition, the
reduction in the requirement will make reserves
available directly to banks throughout the country, to be used by them as their own local circumstances dictate to support seasonal or other
changes in earning assets and deposits.
In taking this action, the Board took into account the character of the growth in deposits
at commercial banks this past year. Net increases
in savings and time deposits during 1962 have
been comparatively large, in response to widespread offering by banks of higher rates of interest for such deposits. In these circumstances, the
Board felt a lower requirement behind these deposits would be appropriate.

Released for publication November 16

Industrial production, construction activity, and
nonagricultural employment continued to change
little in October. Retail sales rose, as buying of
autos increased sharply after introduction of the
1963 models. Commercial bank credit continued
to expand, reflecting mainly an increase in loans.
Common stock prices, after declining further in
response to the Cuban crisis in late October, rose
sharply.

was maintained at the advanced levels prevailing
since July.
Declines in output of materials were widespread
but generally small. Production of nonferrous
metals, construction materials, and textiles and
most other nondurable materials was reduced
somewhat. Output of iron and steel changed little.

INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION

New construction activity in October—at a
seasonally adjusted annual rate of $63 billion—
was unchanged from the August-September level.
Private residential construction, which had
changed little through the summer, declined moderately, and industrial, commercial, and most
other types of private activity also declined. Public construction, however, increased sharply.

Industrial production in October remained at
the August-September level of 120 per cent of the
1957-59 average. While output of business equipment rose further, production of materials declined somewhat and output of consumer goods
changed little.
Auto assemblies, after allowance for the sharp
recovery from the model changeover low, remained at about the level prevailing since July.
Production of other consumer durable goods declined, however, reflecting mainly reductions in
television sets and furniture. In the business equipment industries, output of farm machinery and
freight and passenger equipment increased while
output of industrial and commercial machinery

EMPLOYMENT

Seasonally adjusted employment in nonfarm
establishments continued to change little in October. Employment increased further in services and
State and local government but changed little in
manufacturing, trade, and most other lines. Average weekly hours and earnings in manufacturing

5.5 per cent, compared with 5.8 per cent in August
and September and an average of 5.5 per cent in
the first seven months of this year.

Retail sales rose 2 per cent in October and were
8 per cent higher than a year earlier. After newmodel introductions around the first of the month,
deliveries of domestic autos increased sharply to a
seasonally adjusted annual rate of about 8 million
units in October; sales in early November were not
far below this advanced rate. Department store
sales declined in October, primarily reflecting abnormal temperatures in some parts of the country
that limited consumer interest in winter clothing.

NATIONAL SUMMARY OF BUSINESS CONDITIONS
COMMODITY PRICES

The wholesale commodity price index was
stable in late October and early November. In response to the Cuban crisis, basic commodity prices
rose in spot and futures markets, and in early November, prices of rubber, burlap, and some other
commodities remained moderately higher than before the crisis. Prices of lead increased, partly because of a strike affecting output at some domestic
mines. On the other hand, prices of aluminum
scrap and steel scrap declined and pig iron prices
were reduced. Among finished goods, price increases of up to 5 per cent were announced for
tires and refrigerators; prices for both of these
products had been below a year ago.
BANK CREDIT AND RESERVES

Total commercial bank credit, seasonally adjusted, continued to rise in October, reflecting
mainly expansion in all major categories of loans.
The money supply increased and time deposits at
commercial banks rose substantially further.
In late October and early November, a reduction from 5 per cent to 4 per cent in reserves required against time and saving deposits released

about $780 million of reserve funds. Over the
four weeks ending November 14, total reserves
declined $915 million. Reserves were absorbed
through a reduction in Federal Reserve holdings
of U. S. Government securities, a decrease in float,
an outflow of gold, and an increase in currency in
circulation. Both excess reserves and member bank
borrowings from the Federal Reserve increased
somewhat between mid-October and mid-November.
SECURITY MARKETS

Bond yields generally declined further between
mid-October and mid-November, with yields on
corporate and State and local government bonds
setting new lows for this year and those on Treasury issues approximating their previous 1962 lows.
Rates on 3-month Treasury bills increased to
about 2.80 per cent.
After declining further in initial response to the
Cuban crisis, common stock prices increased
sharply in heavy trading. In mid-November, average prices were 15 per cent above the June low
and 17 per cent below the peak reached in December 1961.

The data for F. R. Banks, member banks, and
department stores, and consumer credit are
derived from regular reports made to the
Board; production indexes are compiled by the
Board on the basis of data collected by other
agencies; figures for gold stock, currency, Federal finance, and Federal business-type activi-

ties are obtained from Treasury statements;
the remaining data are obtained largely from
other sources. For many of the banking and
monetary series back data and descriptive text
are available in Banking and Monetary Statistics and its Supplements (see list of publications at end of the BULLETIN).

1 Reciprocal balances excluded beginning with 1942. Reclassification
of deposits of foreign central banks in May 1961 reduced interbank
deposits by a total of $1,900 million ($1,500 million time to other time
and $400 million demand to other demand).
2 Includes other assets and liabilities not shown separately.
3 See note 4 on page 1463.
4
Beginning with Dec. 31, 1947, the series was revised. A net of 115
noninsured nonmember commercial banks with total loans and investments of about $110 million were added, and 8 banks with total loans
and investments of $34 million were transferred from noninsured mutual
savings to nonmember commercial banks.
5 These data reflect the reclassification of New York City and city of
Chicago as reserve cities effective July 28, 1962. For details see Aug.
1962 BULLETIN, p. 993.
6 See note 6, Oct. 1962 BULL., p. 1315.

NOTE.—Data are for all commercial and mutual savings banks in the
United States (including Alaska and Hawaii, beginning with 1959).
Commercial banks include all nonmember and member commercial
banks; stock savings banks and nondeposit trust cos. are included with
commercial banks. Member banks include 1 national bank in the
Virgin Islands that became a member in May 1957, 2 noninsured nondeposit trust cos. and, before July 1962, mutual savings banks that
became members of the Federal Reserve System during 1941 (3 before
Jan. 1960, 2 until June 1961, and 1 until July 1962). These banks were
excluded from commercial banks.
Comparability of figures for classes of banks is affected somewhat
by changes in F. R. membership, deposit insurance status, and the reserve
classifications of cities and individual banks, and by mergers, etc.
Figures are partly estimated except on call dates.
For revisions in series before June 30, 1947, see July 1947 BULL.,
pp. 870-71.

Govt., less cash items in process of collection; beginning with 1961,
demand deposits other than domestic commercial interbank and U. S.
Govt., less cash items in process of collection.
6 Beginning with June 1961, reclassification of deposits of foreign

NOTE.—Data are for all commercial banks in the United States. These
figures exclude data for banks in U. S. possessions except for member
banks. During 1941 3 mutual sayings banks became members of the
FRS; these banks (2 beginning with June 1960 and 1 beginning Sept.
1961) are included in member banks but are not included in all insured
or total banks. Comparability of figures for classes of banks is affected
somewhat by changes in F. R. membership, deposit insurance status, and
the reserve classifications of cities and individual banks, and by mergers,
etc.

Because of ^classifications as of Sept. 27, 1961, many categories are
not strictly comparable with prior data; for example, new "mining"
includes a part of old "other manufacturing and mining," with which
it is compared; a part of "metals and metal products"; and coal, crude
petroleum, and natural gas from old "petroleum, coal, chemicals, and
rubber." "Other durable" and "other nondurable" were in old "other
manufacturing and mining."

Reflects new coverage; see June 1961 BULL., p. 654.
NOTE.—Data for sample of about 200 banks reporting changes in their
larger loans; these banks hold about 95 per cent of total commercial and
industrial loans of all weekly reporting member banks and about 70 per
cent of those of all commercial banks.

NOTE.—Data in the first three cols, and last col. are for end of month,
in the other cols., for last Wed.
Net debit balances and broker and dealer credit: ledger balances of
member firms of the N. Y. Stock Exchange carrying margin accounts, as
reported to the Exchange. Customers' debit and free credit balances
exclude balances maintained with the reporting firm by other member
firms of national securities exhanges and balances of the reporting firm
and of general partners of the reporting firm. Balances are net for each
customer—i.e., all accounts of one customer are consolidated. Money
borrowed includes borrowings from banks and from other lenders except
member firms of national securities exchanges.




Bank loans to others than brokers and dealers: figures are for weekly
reporting member banks. Before July 1959, loans for purchasing or
carrying U. S. Govt. securities were reported separately only by N. Y.
and Chicago banks. Accordingly, for that period the fifth col. includes
any loans for purchasing or carrying such securities at other reporting
banks. Composition of series also changed beginning with July 1959;
revised data for the new reporting series (but not for the breakdown of
loans by purpose) are available back through July 1958 and have been
incorporated.

NOTE.—The figures include all securities sold by dealers under repurchase contracts regardless of the maturity date of the contract unless the
contract is matched by a reverse repurchase (resale) agreement or delayed
delivery sale with the same maturity and involving the same amount of
securities. Included in the repurchase contracts are some that more
clearly represent investments by the holders of the securities rather than
dealer trading positions.

Only bonds sold pursuant to 1949 Housing Act; secured by contract
requiring the Public Housing Administration to make annual contributions
to the local authority.
2
Beginning with 1957, coverage is considerably broader than earlier.
3
Classifications before 1957 as to use of proceeds and type of issuer
are based principally on issues of $500,000 or more; smaller issues not
classified. As a result some categories, particularly education, are understated relative to later data.
4
Municipalities, counties, townships, school districts, and, before 1957,
small unclassified issues.

The figures on international capital transactions
are collected by the F. R. Banks from reports
made on Treasury foreign exchange forms collected by the F. R. Banks in accordance with
Executive Orders No. 6560, dated Jan. 15, 1934,
and No. 10033, dated Feb. 8, 1949, and Treasury regulations thereunder. Other data are com-

piled largely from regularly published sources
such as central bank statements and official
statistical bulletins. For some of the series, back
data are available in Banking and Monetary
Statistics and its Supplements (see list of publications at end of the BULLETIN).

international organizations, unpublished holdings of various central banks
and govts., estimated holdings of the U.K. Exchange Equalization
Account, and estimated official holdings of countries from which no
reports are received; excludes U.S.S.R., other Eastern European countries, and China Mainland.

the Bank's gold assets net of gold deposit liabilities. This procedure

countries.
