SECTION 7. That they shall take some point in the financial centre of

their respective commercial zones, from which they shall draw seven

radial lines, so cutting the territory as to divide the whole number of

banks, as nearly as possible, into seven district groups, each district

containing approximately the same number of banks, and may from time to

time thereafter shift said radial line for the purpose of maintaining

such equal subdivision of the banks.

COMMENT:--It is a matter of great importance that these districts

shall be automatically and arbitrarily constituted, if possible; and

this plan will accomplish it. By this method every part of every

commercial zone will be represented by business men as well as

bankers. Neither particular sections nor particular banks can have any

direct advantage.
