Knter New System. Itcgiilntions Issued. Washington, Dec. 31.?Hanks that enter the Federal reserve system do not need to take out new charters, but both state and national banks may become members by making proper application and by becoming stockholders in federal reserve banks. This regulation was issued yesterday by the reserve bank organization committee. The committee also announced that action by a board of directors is sufficient to bring a bank into the new system, but advised chat banks that wish to be on the safe side sound out their stockholders. The regulation reads: "The federal reserve a<H provides for membership ot banks operating under state charters as well as membership of national banks. No new charter is contemplated in either case. Eligible banks become members by becoming stockholders in federal reserve banks, when their applications have been properly approved and stock has been allotcd to Kllfll olllionriti?ln? ? 5 t..I stock of the federal reserve bank appears to he it matter within the province of the hoard of directors of the subscribing bank. The organization committee therefore deems it unnecessary to require as a condition precedent to membership that the stockholders should take any formal action. "Inasmuch, however, as stockholders of a bank have legal right, by necessary vote, to force a solvent bank to liquidate, and if dissatisfied with the action of the board in be. coming members might exercise this prerogative, banks desiring to take the precautionary measure of canvassing the sentiment of the stockholders may, by resolution of their boards, submit the question to stockholders either at the next regular meeting or at a specially called meeting. This course, however. Is not Insisted on by the organization committee. "Those national banks passing resolutions of non-acceptance on or before February 22, 1914, should, as soon thereafter as convenient, and before the expiration of the 12 month prescribed In the federal reserve act submit their action to the stockholders for confirmation, since non-acceptance of the provisions of the federal reserve act ultimately will Involve the liquidation of such national hanks." Pit His Case Exactly. "When father was sick about six years ago he read an advertisement of Chamberlain's Tablets In the papers that fit his case exactly," writes Miss Margaret Campbell of Fort Smith, Ark. "Ho purchased a box of them and he has not been sick since. My sister had stomach trouble and was also benefited by them." for sale by all dealers. Schedules Southern Railway.
