		While the process of investigation, discussion, and compromise leading to the act had ended with President Wilson's signature, another long process was beginning: that of organizing and establishing in practice the central banking system of the United States and of developing new policies and tools to meet the changing needs and circumstances of the economy.
		First, the act was a political compromise between different conceptions of what the Federal Reserve System as a whole, and the Board as part of that System, was to do and was not to do and what kind of checks and balances were needed.
		But the act assumed that cooperation and coordination between the Board and the Reserve Banks, as well as among the Reserve Banks, would be automatic.(5) One example of the problems arising from this assumption regarded the discount rate, which each Reserve Bank was empowered to set for its own district.

		Aldrich did much to strengthen the antiprogressive wing of the Republican party and led the Senate opposition to Theodore Roosevelt's increasingly progressive policies.
		The “Aldrich plan,” published in 1911, was not made into law, but it did offer information that was used by the Democrats in setting up the Federal Reserve System.

	Gold & Money 10 Aldrich Plan
		Nelson W. Aldrich (1841-1915) was a very powerful man for he was the de facto leader of the small coterie of Senate Republicans who dominated the party caucus and who determined the action of the Senate on most issues between 1895 and 1910.
		One unabashed propagandist was Edward Vreeland, cohort of Aldrich and co-author of the Aldrich-Vreeland Currency Act of 1908 that was a precursor for the Federal Reserve Act of 1913.

		Eventually, the National Banking Act of 1863 had a large impact on the US financial system because it chartered national banks which met certain requirements, made the notes of national banks legal tender for all public and private debts, and levied a tax of 2 percent on state bank notes, which gradually increased over time.
		During the period of time from the passage of National Banking Act from 1863 to 1913, new innovations in the financial system and economic development largely changed the structure of the financial industry.
		In 1913 the Federal Reserve Act was established and it gave the United States its first Central Bank.

	ABA Celebrating 125 Years and the New Millennium - Timeline 1910-1919
		24 November: ABA threw its support behind the Aldrich Vreeland Act of 1908, which set up a National Monetary Commission to study the reform of banking laws in the U.S. The Currency Commission of the association worked with that commission and endorsed the Aldrich Plan in 1911.
		The Aldrich Plan, as explained by Senator Nelson Aldrich, chairman of the National Monetary Commission, proposed the organization of a National Reserve Association (later the Federal Reserve System), "a cooperative union of all the banks of the country for definite purposes and with very limited and clearly defined functions."
		While the ABA had supported the Aldrich Plan which proposed a National Reserve Association, it had been opposed to some of the provisions of the Federal Reserve Act.

		Of the three components, the relatively obscure Aldrich-Vreeland emergency currency was by far the most important in combating the economic threat, despite Treasury Secretary McAdoo’s reference to it [1931, p.214] as “a feeble emergency measure.” Closing the Exchange merits an assist but the Federal Reserve System arrived after the battle had been won.
		II.1 Aldrich-Vreeland Currency The issuance of emergency currency, originally authorized by the Aldrich-Vreeland Act of 1908 and extended by the Federal Reserve Act until June 30, 1915, was designed precisely to avoid a repetition of the Panic of 1907.
		A number of features of the Act were archaic, especially the provision that the emergency currency could be issued only by banks already having banknotes (currency) outstanding secured by U.S. bonds equal to 40 percent of their capital.

	mhp: The Federal Reserve Act
		It seems probable that the identification of the Aldrich Plan as a Wall Street operation predicted that it would have a difficult passage through Congress, as the Democrats would solidly oppose it, whereas a successful Democratic candidate, supported by a Democratic Congress, would be able to pass the central bank plan.
		When Senator Aldrich and others were going around the country exploiting this scheme, the big banks of New York and Chicago were engaged in (21) raising a munificent fund to bolster up the Aldrich propaganda.
		The Act, which was to deprive Wall Street of its funds for speculation, has really given the bulls and the bears such a supply as they have never had before.

		As soon as Aldrich's bill failed of passage, Senator Glass introduced its twin, which managed to pass as the Federal Reserve Act.
		It also empowered the Fed to issue its own paper currency, and to manipulate the money supply, buying and selling bonds in the open market, to prevent financial panics like those of 1837, 1857, 1873, 1893, or 1907; not that it was too successful here, as events of 1921 and 1929 proved.
