Federal Reserve Agent Praises Banking System in Kansas City

Kansas City Oct 15 Federal Reserve agent M L McClure told Missouri Bankers Association that 92 percent of U S banks are on the federal par list and that clearing and branch banking are key topics. He cited 1922 figures showing 638,625,000 items cleared and 160,130,624,000 dollars processed by the twelve banks in the system. He urged maintaining a sound federal reserve and noted broad district compliance with par status, with few non par banks. He warned against expanding the system in ways that could impair efficiency and highlighted the need for proper paper standards and examiner checks to prevent careless banking practices.
