REPORT OF CONDITION 
k TOT less than three times each year every national 
1 bank is required to make a report to the Comp- 
troller, according to the form prescribed by him, verified 
by the oath or affirmaton of the bank’s president, vice 
president, cashier or assistant cashier designated by the 
bank’s board of directors to verify such reports in the 
absence of the president and cashier, and attested to by 
the signatures of at least three of the bank’s directors. 
Forms for these reports are furnished by the Comptrol- 
ler usually in advance of the date upon which formal 
notice of the call reaches the bank. The information 
asked for must be transmitted to the Comptroller 
within five days after the receipt of the call at the bank, 
and in the same form in which it is furnished to the 
Comptroller the information must be inserted in a 
newspaper published in the place where the bank is 
located. 
The Comptroller has power to call for special reports 
from any particular bank whenever in his opinion it is 
necessary to obtain such information.
