         GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR FORM U-3A3-1

1.  Use of form. - A bank is not exempt from any
provision of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of
1935 by virtue of Rule U-3 unless the bank holds on the
last day of February of any year no securities or
evidence of indebtedness of the type and amounts required
to be reported under items 1 or 2 of this form or unless,
holding any such securities or evidences of indebtedness
at such date, it thereafter files a statement on Form
U-3A3-1 to cover the preceding 12-month period.
  The entire form should be filed out.  If a particular
item is inapplicable or if the answer is "None," so
state.
2.  Time of filing. - In order to keep on file with the
Commission an effective statement, the bank should file
a statement on form U-3A3-1, as of the last day of
February in each year, within 30 days thereafter.
3.  Number of copies. - Only the original needs to be
filed.  If a duplicate is submitted, it will be returned
to the bank stamped to show date of receipt by the
Commission.
4.  Meaning of terms. - The terms "public-utility
company," "holding company" and "voting securities" shall
have the meanings set forth in Section 2(a) of the Act. 
The term "public-utility company" need not include any
company declared not to be such pursuant to Sections
2(a)(3) or 2(a)(4) of the Act or any company which drives
no material part of its income, directly or indirectly,
from sources within the United States.  The term "holding
company" need not include any company declared not to be
such pursuant to Section 2(a)(7) or which is either
exempt as such pursuant to a rule or order under
subsections (3), (4) or (5) of Section 3(a) of the Act or
has pending an application for exemption under any of
such subsections.  The terms "officer" and "director"
have the meanings set forth in Rule U-70(c).
  Securities owned, controlled, or held by branches of
the bank, including domestic and foreign branches,
offices, and subsidiaries, shall be considered as owned,
controlled, or held by the bank.  Securities owned,
controlled, or held by a foreign branch or office of the
bank or of a subsidiary of the bank (in the regular
course of business of such branch, office or subsidiary)
need not be included provided the principal amount or par
or stated value of the securities of any one company so
owned, controlled, or held by any such branch or office
does not exceed $10,000.  Securities issued by
subsidiaries of holding companies are owned, controlled,
or held by the bank.
5.  Limitation on responsibility of bank. - The filing of
a statement on this form shall be deemed a representation
by the bank that it has made reasonable efforts to
ascertain whether companies whose voting securities it
owned, controlled, or held are public-utility companies
or holding companies as defined in the Act, but the bank
shall not be responsible for failure in good faith to
include in the statement data as to its holdings in any
company whose name or general reputation does not
indicate a probability that it is such a company.





                          -5-


  A statement shall not be invalid because of any
inaccuracy which is not wilful, provided the inaccuracy
is corrected when brought to the attention of the bank.
  The inclusion of any security in the statement shall
not (unless otherwise expressly stated therein) be deemed
an admission that the bank does in fact own, control, or
hold the power to vote such security within the meaning
of Section 2(a)(7)(A) of the Act. The inclusion of the
securities of any company shall not be deemed an
expression of any option by the bank that such company is
in fact subject to the provisions of the Act.
6.  Foreign branches. - Where the bank cannot
conveniently include in this statement information as to
one or more foreign branches, the bank shall indicate
this omission in answer to item 7 of the statement, and
as early as possible, shall file a second statement on
this form with respect to such branches.  To the extent
that it may not be feasible to supply information
concerning any foreign branch the bank may request
written instructions to modify certain items of the form
in so far as they concern such branch or to furnish such
information as of a different date.
7.  Public disclosure. - The bank may object, pursuant to
the provisions of Rule U-104, to public disclosure of any
information contained in this statements on this form. 
If any such objection concerning a customer's loan or
credit is made on behalf of the customer's loan or credit
is made on behalf of the customer as well as the
reporting bank, no disclosure thereof will be made
without notice both to the bank and such customer.
8.  Reliance on statistical manuals. - A bank shall be
entitled to rely on any standard manual of financial data
to determine the total number of shares of any class of
outstanding voting securities, the voting rights of any
securities, the assets of any company and the names of
the directors of any company.
