I'AGE roCB GRANTS PASS DAILY COCKIER Tt'KHItAY, HAV 1.1, lg. Available Money Reserves The main object of the Federal Reserve Banking System, of which we are a member. Is to make more available the untied money reserve of the strong bank of the county. Even in normal time there come seasonal loan demands ot which the average eltlien Is unaware. The farmer must have money loaned htm tor planting and crop moving. Interest and tax payment periods each present their 8ecial banking require ments. The Federal Reserve Bank through which a member bank may quickly convert commercial paper into available assets when most needed enables us to meet these needs.
