haa supplemented its plan for locat­

official announcement pointing the
way for all cities to present their
claims for banks.
Before the com­

of the country, it will advise clearing
house associations and boards of trade
in cities that are in the field for a re­

Only 14 cities in addition to Wash­

understanding that any city and any
community can be heard at some point
on the trip around the country which
has been mapped out.

have not been worked out. it is prob-
