SHAW's PLAN DESTRUCTIVE
Private Bankers Say They Cannot
Make lmportations of Gold, Hav-
ing No Bonds to Deposit
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 16.-Secretary
Shaw's plan to allow national banks
to forestall the arrival of gold in ports
by the withdrawal of its equivalent
in cash from the sub-treasury upon
the deposit therein of bonds as security
was much discussed in the financial
district today. Some of the private
banking houses which dealt in foreign
exchange and which have been ac-
customed to import gold declared that
so long as the secretary's plan re-
mained in operation they will be una
BILE to make any further importations,
as they have not the same facilities
as national banks for carrying large
blocks of bonds to offer as security.
Their business, they asserted, would
be ruined under this plan.
One foreign bank asserted that the
banks will not get a single extra gold
shipment because of Mr.. Shaw's plan,
but said that the importations might
begin day or two earlier than they
ordinarily would. A friend of Secre-
tary Shaw said that the secretary
maintained that the plan was bene-
fit to the foreign exchange houses as
well as national banks, as they Will
get the immediate benefit of their gold.
