MAY ESTABLISH BRANCH FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS

WASHINGTON, May 30. Establishment,of a number of branch federal reserve banks throughout the country is contemplated by the federal reserve board upon the passage of amendments to the reserve act, now pending before congress. The first of the branch banks probably will be located at Baltimore, Louisville and Denver. Both .Baltimore and Louisville have presented applications to the board and the designation of those cities, it is believed will follow soon after the adoption of the amendments. The location of a branch bank at Denver, it is thought, would be advantageous to financial interests served from the center. Location of branch banks at other midwestern cities probably will be considered later. At present there is but one branch reserve bank in actual operation, at New Orleans, although branches of the San Francisco bank are contemplated at Seattle, Spokane and Portland, Oregon. As the law stands now, the cost of establishing a branch is considerable and has acted somewhat as a deterrent. This would be obviated largely by the passage"; of the amendments. ' '' - ' ' :-s Establishment of' branch banks would be authorized only where they would be of actual service in eliminating distance and delay to member tanks of the immediate vicinity. With the accession to the system of thousands of state banks and trust companies, a development expected shortly, it is believed, there would be need for a considerable number of branches.

In speaking of food control legislation, Senator Watson declared that he did not favor the regulation of maximum and minimum prices for foodstuffs, or the appointment of one man to have absolute control over the food supply of the country. People Being Taught. "Congress already has passed measures which provide for the conservation of food by teaching the people of the country how to conserve the supply and by appointing a board which can enforce priority rulings in railroad shipments of foodstuffs, but I do not think it' necessary to give one man absolute power over the food of this country to one man," Watson said. In closing, Senator Watson again appealed to the audience to do their share in the present crisis and in that way, pay the most patriotic debt possible to the brave men of the nation's greatest war. sThe exercises were closed by a benediction by Rev. Dressel and the sounding of "taps."
