and all condemned the Aldrich bill.
Mr.. Clark said the bin as an emcr-

said. result In the banks preparing
themselves for panic by purchasing
bonds as a basis for emergency cur
rency
They would feel that they could
watch the situation. and when danger
looms up they could buy the bonds"
said Mr.. Clark. He did not believe
there would be enough OF the securi
ties prescribed in the bill TO provide
bonds for the banks. as the bonds are
closely held by people who would not
sell them even at an advance.
lie condemned the plan to enlarge
the reserves of smaller banks. as IL
would seriously curtail the amount OF
loans they could make.
Mr.. Lane presented report from
a committee OF the Philadelphia board
oi trade opposing the prohibition OF
loans to institutions IN which directors
or banks are interested.

cent strincency many banks were
loaded up with bonds while money
would have helped them.
