US: Fed Chairman Bernanke and top Atlanta bankers to meet at Jekyll Island Club where Federal Reserve was conceived in 1910. We can imagine that many of the original plans and deceptions will be hot topics once again. Nation's Top Banker will be on Jekyll Sat. May 09, 2009 May 09, 2009 (The Brunswick News - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) When Ben Bernanke, chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, speaks to staff members of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta Monday on Jekyll Island, he may address some of the same issues that the original organizers of the Federal Reserve System encountered as they began laying the groundwork for what would become the United States' central bank. It was November 1910 when U.S. Sen. Nelson Aldrich, a Republican of Rhode Island, chair of the National Monetary Commission and a business associate of industrialist J.P. Morgan, convened a secret meeting of some of the leading financial minds of the day -- under the illusion of the group taking a 10-day duck hunting trip on Jekyll Island. The nation had been in a financial crises that had Wall Street brokerage houses collapsing and the U.S. Treasury pumping money into failing banks. That meeting on what then was a private island owned by some of the nation's wealthiest industrialists developed the concept for what would eventually become the Federal Reserve Bank, which was signed into law by President Woodrow Wilson on Dec. 23, 1913. The Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta is holding its three-day 2009 Financial Markets Conference at the Jekyll Island Club Hotel, which was catapulted into history as the nominal founding spot for the Federal Reserve Bank.
