The House t RESERVE BANKS TO OPEN NOVEMBER16E McAdoo Says Conditions in Southl ,Necessitated Action. Says It Will Help Cotton. Washington, Oct. 25.-The twelve Federal reserve banks of the new banking system will be opened for business November 16. This was offi ecily announced today. Secretary hicAdoo, authorized by the Currency Act to name the openfling date, made the annou'ncement. isu choice of the 16th was made despite the recent recommendations of- the di rectors and governors of the twelve banks not to open before November 30. Mr. McAdoo declared he had reach ed his decision after discussion with the F'eerai reserve board and because of emergency conditions in the South. lie believes the operation of the banks, especially helpful there, will benefli business in all sections. In a *statement tonight the Secre tary. npade it clear that under the new system the Federal government will be able to deD~slt Nom the general fund of the treasury in reserve banks to aid producers Of staples. 'The new resolu tion rejuires, h~e pointed out, the re lease of 148,000O000, now hold by na tional banks as reserves, and will add greatly to 'the l0aning power of th( banks.' TVhe statethent in part fillows: "I have deterinined to announce or1 the 16th day of November, 1914, thE establishment of the Federal reservE banks in all tihe Federal reserve dis tricts. On tihat day the new reserve requirements for national banks. ai prescribed by the Act, will becomE operative. 'I am impelled to this decision par ticularly because of the emergency conditions in the South and the confi. dent belief thatt the prompt opening of the reserve banks will be very helpfiu to the cotton situation and to general business in all sections of the country "This conclusion has been reached afte a th'orudh iHscunnlon w~th m JT CLOTIING.T Week.

"1 am fully aware of the physical difficulties that ermust be overcome to set the reserve banks in motion on the 16th of November, but the directors of these banks represent the highest de gree of American banking ability and I am sure that not only can they meet the situation, but that they will cheer fully take up) the task in the same fine spirit of public service which animnat ed their decisions at the Wasghington conference, "As the result of the enactment of the war revenue measure, the parity between receipts and disbursements of the treasury will soon be happily restored. This will make it possible for the treasury to render still great er service than it has already rendered in helping the financial situation in the South and in other parts of the country where -the need has app~eared. The prompt opening of the Federal reserve banks will make the assistance of the treasury doubly powerful be cause the Federal IReserve Act author ies the Secretary of the Treasury, in his discretion, to deposit a large amount of the foneys held in the 'gen oral fund' in the Federal reserve banks and to require such banks to act as fiscal agents of the United Stat'es; and also in his discretIon to deposit the revenues of the government. 'or -any part thereof, in the reserve banks -and to make disbursemenits by c'hec'ks drawn against such deprosits. "Under the present system the Sec retary of the Treasury cannot with prudence scatter the 'general fund' of the treasury among the great unumber of widely separated national banks throughout the country.
