IN THE WORLD OF FINANCE
BANKERS
PLAN FOR FIGHT
Will Go to Chicago to Force
Issue in Lading Bill
Strife.

NEW YORK, Sept. 11-Large delega-
lions of Eastern bankers and business
men win attend the national confer
ence looking to the establishment of a
uniform bill of lading which will be
held in Chicago on Monday. This con-
ference, which has been called by the
bill of lading committee of the Ameri-
can Bankers Association. will precede
the annual convention of that associa-
ton.
For the past three or four years
banking, shipping n commercial in
~terests Of the country have endeav-
ored to secure legislation that would
safeguard the bill Of lading as an In
strument of credit, contending that
the failure of the carriers to assume
responsibility for the bills of lading
that they Issue had resulted In extern
sive frauds and the loss Of several mil
lion dollars annually by the banks of
the United States. They have on
tended further that unless the alleged
evils were remedied the banks would
refuse to accept bills of lading as a
basis of credit. Several banks had al
ready taken hat stand, and the fear
that similar drastic measures might be
adopted by bankers generally resulted
In concerted action being taken to
secure the adoption of uniform and sat
isfactory laws that would settle the
controversy.
The entire question came up before
the Interstate Commerce Commission,
which recommended hat the reforms
proposed by the bankers be adopted,
but decided that 1t had no legal power
to enforce this recomm endation against
the carriers.
