SECTION 27. That the term of service of the president and

vice-president of the American Reserve Bank shall be three years, and

the salary of the president shall be twenty-five thousand dollars

per annum, payable in monthly installments, and the salary of the

vice-president shall be eighteen thousand dollars per annum, payable

in monthly installments. The salaries of all the other officers or

employees of said bank shall be fixed by the board of directors of said

bank.

COMMENT:--The term of service should not be too long, for it would

follow that a good officer would be retained, while a mistake could be

corrected within a reasonable time. The salary should be sufficient to

secure the ablest men that the country affords.
