"Retel March 24 concerning application for membership by proposed Bank of Illinois Valley, Cave Junction,
Oregon. It is Board's view that applicant will not be
entitled to the benefits of insurance' under section
12B of Federal Reserve Act, and will not be eligible for
membership with less than $0,000 capital, until it has
applied for insurance and has been approved by board of
directors of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in
accordance with subsections (f) (2) and (g) of section
12B, and has complied with any conditions precedent
Prescribed in connection with such approval. In this
connection, see memorandum and correspondence re
membership of Inland Empire Bank, Umatilla, Oregon.
.
"Washington Office of FDIC advises that considera?-°n of application will be expedited if bank applies
lor insurance, but that it considers an examination
Or investigation and report by its own examiners to be
necessary as a basis for action on any application
1-or insurance, particularly in view of provision re
slcamination in subsection (f) (2) of section 12B.
"If applicant does not wish to increase basic
caPital to $50,000, thus obviating necessity for such
:
.Ietion, suggest information developed by your examiner
ue made available to FDIC examiner assigned to make
investigation. It is believed desirable to invite
?IC supervising examiner to participate in investiga1°ns or examinations made of all uninsured banks
aPplying for membership."
