DO NOT AGREE WITH DAWES.
Chicago Bankers Take Issue with Part OF
His Report.


Chicago, Nov. 27.-COmptroller OF
the Currency Dawes sent his report to
the press yesterday. and officials of
Chicago banks do not agree with his
recommendations for changes in the
management of the national banking
institutions or with the advocacy of
stringent restrictions upon the powers
OF bank officials and directors to make
loans 20 themselves. In his report he
dweIls on the alleged evils of directors
borrowing from their own banks and
also of loans to employees. stating that
IL per cent. of the recent bank failures
was due To such practices.
Bank officials here argue that these
conditions are not alarming. II is be-
Heved that the cOmptrOller's recon-
mendations is too broad and that his
criticisms do not apply to we'll
regulated institutions. There is at
the present time 10 per
cent. statute limitation on all
loans, and dangers in national banking
have come chiefly from abuse of this
regulation by exceeding the limit in
loaninS 10 directors. In national bank
ing circles of Chicago officials say am
pie safeguards have been provided for
protection against the conditions 1T
which the comptroller is striking.
