While all of them have the mintter under consideration and, in the case many of them, the consideration is merely one of form. the time since the passage of the law has been too short for action.

Wells, president of the National City, todicated that there was 00 doubt about favorable action by the stockholders. But while no action has yet been takon by the local banks. the thorough accord with the principles of the currency reServe act came not only from the gational bunks of the borough, but from the executives of State banks and trust compantes as well. The opinions expressed In 50.1e quarters to the effect that the national banks would surrender their charters In preference to coming in under the new law tailed to find auy support in Brooklyn at all. Charles Boody Heartily Approves New Law.

"My bellet has been ail along that sooner or later all the State banking institutions would be members of the new association," said Charles A. Boody, president or tee Peoples Trust Company. "It is a law and we all know it is 8 good low. TLere 18 no doubt in my mind about elsal acceptance by all Brooklyn beaks." A further Indiration along this line of just how acronzly the local banks might be expected to aupport. the new measure was given by A King Wood, president ot the Franklin Frust Company, through the statement shat ho the matter over with Mr.

4L Edwin 1'. Mazuard. president Trust Company, and that Me Wasnard had egreed with Mr. that all the State bania would apter into the Federal Reserve Mr. Maynard himself could not be seen yesterduy.

Much Importance attaches to this expected stand of the banka Serause, under the low, they are tot teasired to enter Into the system. The law provides that nacional banks must within a ye.r or forfeit their charters. But the Stain banks and trust companies are to met as they fit, the law morely giving them the privilege of Joinnew banking system. and their of the net 18 regarded by bankers as one of the best possible inof the ellency and worth of the law. Nineteen Brooklyn Banks Eligible to Membership.

All told, there are six national banks, nre State banks and eight trust companies in Brooklyn. Tite situation with theta yesterday was that five of the national banks were practically, assured members of the new reserve system, while the sixth did not wish to commit Itself without further study; that two of the State banks were almost certain of being Federal Reserve banks; two! others were favorably disposed, awalted further titte for consideration. and the Arth bunk had not yet considered 1t at all: and that three of the trust companies were decidedly likely to anply for membership, four others belleved in the worth of the law and were sidering the question membership, while the eighth had not yet upon it at all. D. V.

B. Hegeman, vice president of the Nassau National Bank. Was vially about the law. He asserted that it was good law in every way and that while there might be defecta, it was the general feeling among bankers that President Wilson would be found willing and anxious to make any amendments from time to time that might be required. "The question of our applying for memberstilp will be presented to the board of directors on Tuesday afternoon," said Mr.

Hegeman. "and after their action has been registered, the stockholders will then be asked to vote on it. This course is taken so that we may comply with every aspect of the law. I am sure that all banks will -operate to make the law a success." National City's Officers Thoroughly Believe in New Statute. "Our officers feel about the new law :15 I'm sure the officers of all other national banks said President H.

M. Wells, of the National City Bank. "That 1s, we are very favorably disposed toward it. We believe In the law thoroughly. There may be some minor things to be corrected, but they will be worked out all right.

The proposition of coming in under the law will be submitted to our stockholders at the annual meeting on January 13." "I do not see any reason why we should not gO into the new system." was word from G. W. Spence, president of the Peoples National Bank. "'The only thing that stands against the formal registering of our approval 15 that we haven't taken up the matter vet. But believe that our directors will take lavorable action "The proposition has not yet been taken but it is almost sure that We will 10 into the new syste.n." said W.

at their meeting on January 14. President of Nassau Trust Company Indorses the System. Frederick W. Rowe. vice president of the Greenpoint National Bank, said that the Board of Directors of that institution was not yet reedy to pass upon the question and would not do until the directors had had more thine for further consideration of the law.

The directors of the Homestead Bank. a State institution, are expected to decide for membership in the Federal Reserve Association. F. L. Rockefeller, president of the tank.

said: "The matter will be taken up by the Board of Directors at a meeting on January 2 and our position will probably be decided defnitely then. Of course it 19 0 subject that demands muen consideration. Our study of the law thus far has made 118 see many advantages in "We don't feel that We know enough about the law to be able to decide on it said Paul E. Bonner. president of the North Side Bank, also a State Instituption.

"We are inclined to believe it in the main a good law, but at the pres ent time do not Ace why we should not see how it works out first. There's no need for State banks to hasten--we don't have to make up our minds quickly. Wol feel very favorably toward the law, but we will probably not act for some time yet." A similar view was expressed by Can- tain H. M. Randall.

president of the Montauk Bank. while G. H. Malley, cashder of the Bank of Coney Island, said that the directors of that Institution Were expected to decide for membership Keen appreciation of the law was voteco by A. T.

Sullivan, president of the Nassau Trust Company, who said that while no action had yet been taken by his coma favorable response might be pany, pected from the directors at their meeting on January S. "Personally, I believe we will apply for said Mr. Sullivan. "It has Impressed us here as something that is going to be of great good to the whole country, and I am sure that most of the banks will apply for membership." W. E.

Edmister, president of the Hamilton Trust Company, said that it was too carly to state what the attitude of his company might be; but. as did the other trust company executives, he asserted that the opinion of all bankers was favorable on the new law. At the Home Trust Company and the Kings County Trust Company. and at the Mechantes Bank, it was said that it was too early, yet to tell what course might be adopted.
