Reserve System's Dividends Analyzed
Bankers Find Increased Payments to Member Banks
Would Be Small Inducement.
Red Cross to Carry First Aid in War
To Lower Motor Deaths and Injuries
Various proposals that member; Reserve Banks to the Federal Govern-
banks in the Federal Reserve System
should participate more largely in its
not earnings through an increase in
the dividend rate above the present
fixed G per cent “would be a very small
financial inducement” to them, it is de-
clared in a recent study of this subject
ky the Economic Policy Commission
of the American Bankers Association.
This is shown, the commission says, by
a theoretical forecast, oh the basis of
the past six years, of additional earn-
ings that would be disbursed to mem-
ber banks during the next six years un-
der two plans introduced In bills before
the United States Senate.
“The Fletcher bill provides that
Federal Reserve Bank earnings, after
present 6 par cent dividends to mem-
bers and completion of a 100 per cent
surplus, should all be distributed as
extra dividends to the stockholder
banks,” the report says. “If the earn-
ings of each Federal Reserve bank
were distributed among its own mem-
bers there would be no extra dividends
to the Boston, New York, Philadelphia,
Cleveland, Chicago and Ban Francisco
districts during the next six years, but
the other six Federal Reserve Banks
would pay annual extras nt the follow-
ing rates: Richmond, G.08 per cent; At-
lanta, 4.09 per cent; St. Louis, 3.50 per
sas City, 5.48 per cent; Dallas, 4.83 per
cent.
“If the earnings were pooled and
paJd out to all members in all districts
each member would receive an aver-
age annual extra dividend of .78 per
cent. Under this plan no franchise tax
as now would be paid by the Federal
I
ment.
Another Plan Analysed
“The Glass bill would provide that,
after present 6 per cent dividends, one
half tho remainder should bo paid to
member banks as an extra dividend
with the residue going to surplus and
Federal Government as franchise tax
The average annual extras to members
would be as follows: Boston District,
2.51 per cent; New York, .48 per cent;
Philadelphia, 2.05 per cent; Cleveland,
2.09 per cent; Richmond, 3.26 per cent;
Atlanta. 4.67 per cent: Chicago, 3.20
per cent; St. Louis, 2.02 per cent;
Minneapolis, 4.75 per cent; Kansas
City, 2.74 per cent; Dallas, 3.31 per
cent; San Francisco, 1.87 per cent.
“If these extra funds were pooled the
result would be an extra average an-
nual dividend of 1.73 per cent for each
member. Under this plan the Bystem
would still pay as now an annual fran-
chise tax, amounting to 91,941,996 on
the kverage.”
By way of concrete instance, the re-
port says, a member bank having capi-
tal and surplus of $200,000, therefore
holding Federal Reserve Bank stock
amounting to $6,000 on which it Is re-
ceiving $360 under the present 6 pai
sent dividend arrangement, would with
the addition of each 1 per cent to the
U. I IUUUU 1UW IVI.W. , t U.l Uwu.hluww..
come of $60 a year.
“If each member bank will figure
out for itself the dollar-and-cents gain
It would enjoy we are confident it will
be agreed that the gains are small ai
against the economic disadvantage!
which can be pointed out,” It con
eludes.
