Annual Report 1956 FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF CHICAGO ANNUAL REPORT 1956 To the Member Banks of the Seventh Federal Reserve District: I am pleased to submit to you this Forty-second Annual Report of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, covering the operations during the year 1956. In addi­ tion to the summary of Bank operations the Report includes a detailed review of the basic economic structures of two District cities— Indianapolis and Milwaukee. This is the third in a series of studies of the distinguishing characteristics of Seventh District “areas” to appear in the Annual Report. Clifford S. Young retired on February 28, after 35 years of devoted service to the Bank. He started here in 1921 as an Assistant Examiner, subsequently served as Assistant Federal Reserve Agent, as Secretary, as Vice President, and as President of the Bank from 1941 until his retirement. “Hap” Young’s knowledge of Midwest banks and bankers, together with his warm personal qualities, made countless friends and represented a most important asset for the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and the Federal Reserve System. December 31 saw the retirement of Assistant Vice President Mark A. Lies, a “charter employee” who had served the Bank since the day it opened for business in 1914 and in recent years was the capable manager of our bank building. Mr. Lies also left us with the respect and affection of a host of friends. Carl E. Allen, who had been a Class “C” Director and Deputy Chairman of the Board, succeeded Mr. Young as President of the Bank on October 1. J. Stuart Russell was then appointed Deputy Chairman of the Board, and Robert P. Briggs, Executive Vice President of Consumers Power Company, Jackson, Michigan, was appointed a Class “C” Director to succeed Mr. Allen in the latter capacity. J. Thomas Smith, President of the Detroit Harvester Company, was appointed Director of the Branch to fill a vacancy on the Board. C. V. Patterson, Executive Vice President of the Upjohn Company, Kalamazoo, Michigan, was appointed Director of the Detroit Branch to succeed William M. Day, President, Michigan Bell Telephone Company. The past year set many records in the economic life of our country. As a result the volume of business handled by many departments of the Bank was larger than ever before. On behalf of our Directors, Officers and Staff, I extend our deep appreciation to you our stockholders for your understanding cooperation and assistance. Very truly yours, (L President carl E. allen took office as President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago on October 1, 1956. Prior to that time Mr. Allen had served as Director and Deputy Chairman of the Board of the Chi­ cago Bank and since 1950 had been President of Campbell, Wyant and Cannon Foundry Company of Muskegon, Michigan. A long career in commercial banking preceded his service as a Midwest industrialist. From 1926 to 1950, Mr. Allen was associated with the National City Bank of New York where he served as a Vice Presi­ dent from 1940 to 1950. When announcing selection of the new chief executive officer of the Bank, Bert R. Prall, Chairman of the Board, said, “In selecting Mr. Allen we have a man who can give the Federal Reserve Bank the kind of leadership this great area needs. The Chicago District is the largest in point of population, has more banks than any other District, and leads all others in many of the basic industries of our economy. He has a broad commercial banking experience, is an out­ standing industrialist, and being 51 years of age will give continuity to management.” Mr. Allen was born in Carbondale, Illinois, is a graduate of Phillips Academy, Andover, Massachusetts, and of Dartmouth Col­ lege. He is married and has four children. FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF CHICAGO Chairman and Federal Reserve Agent Deputy Chairman Bert R. Prall J.

Humphrey School of Public Affairs The University of Minnesota Christov Churchward, Jacob Herbers, Ben Picone, Drew Turro Client: Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Capstone Instructor: Fred Rose Date of Oral Presentation: 5/6/2019 Approval Date of Final Paper: 1 Executive Summary State of the Market Medium-duty electric vehicles (MDEVs) are still in the early stages of adoption across the U.S. Cost- parity on the initial purchase price of these vehicles relative to their conventional counterparts is not expected until the mid-2020s. A lack of organizational experience operating and maintaining EVs and a dearth of charging infrastructure present challenges to the early deployment of all types of EVs. Furthermore, most test cases for MDEVs are in California, whose warmer climate makes it difficult to draw accurate operational comparisons to Minnesota. Despite this, manufacturers are entering the market and providing a greater variety of vehicle choices. The number of class three through six (5-13 tons) electric vehicles on the market increased by a factor of six from 2013 to 2018, going from four to 24. Utilities, recognizing customer demand for EVs, are developing specialized programs and electricity rates for their customers to keep the costs of EV charging low. Furthermore, MDEVs operate with half the fuel cost per mile versus a comparable diesel vehicle. For fleet owners able and willing to take on the

While efforts have been made to include relevant announcements by Canadian transit agencies since that time, specifically as they relate to electric buses, many investment decisions and funding programs related to municipal green infrastructure deployments may change this year as a result of the financial crisis unfolding in cities across the country.

With the government’s hydrogen as an energy carrier, and has many mandate that all federally financed bus purchases competitive advantages (e.g. low carbon feedstocks) be zero emission beginning in 20231, cities and that will grow this sector as the world seeks low transit authorities are faced with a choice of what carbon intensity fuel options.
