under section 3 of the Bank Holding Company Act (12 U.S.C. 1842) to
become a bank holding company or to acquire voting securities of a bank
or bank holding company. The listed companies have also applied under
Sec. 225.23(a)(2) of Regulation Y (12 CFR 225.23(a)(2)) for the
Board's approval under section 4(c)(8) of the Bank Holding Company Act
(12 U.S.C. 1843(c)(8)) and Sec. 225.21(a) of Regulation Y (12 CFR

The applications are available for immediate inspection at the
Federal Reserve Bank indicated. Once the application has been accepted
for processing, it will also be available for inspection at the offices
of the Board of Governors. Interested persons may express their views
in writing on the question whether consummation of the proposal can
``reasonably be expected to produce benefits to the public, such as
greater convenience, increased competition, or gains in efficiency,
that outweigh possible adverse effects, such as undue concentration of
resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interests, or
unsound banking practices.'' Any request for a hearing on this question
must be accompanied by a statement of the reasons a written
presentation would not suffice in lieu of a hearing, identifying
specifically any questions of fact that are in dispute, summarizing the
evidence that would be presented at a hearing, and indicating how the
party commenting would be aggrieved by approval of the proposal.
Unless otherwise noted, comments regarding each of these
applications must be received at the Reserve Bank indicated or the
offices of the Board of Governors not later than October 31, 1994.
