BANKERS WANT ACTION
ON M'AD00'S CHARGES
Secretary Will Be Urged to
Present Proof or Make a
Full Retraction.

The feeling among New York bankers
regarding the charge made by Secretary
McAdoo Of the Treasury Department
that they have been forcing down the
price Of the government ? per cent bonds
TO create n sentiment against the new
currency bill. has reached such an acute
stage that drastic action Is predicted IN
the near future.
The bankers have been discussing the
advisabiity Of presenting a formal re-
quest through the New York Clearing
House for a Congressional investigation
OF the charges OF the Treasury Depart
ment, which are characterized as ridicu-
lous and without any foundation After
several conferences. however. between
the heads OF tie leading banks In the
financial district, II has been decided not
10 follow such a course. despite the con
tinued belief that Mr.. McAdoo made
statements that should be corrected.
In view of the decided opinion enter
tained by several Of the bankers that
Secretary McAdoo has gravcly erred, IN
dividual communications will BE- al
dressed to him demanding proof Of his
charges. and if no proof can be offered, a
full and complete retraction. On the
floor Of the Stock Exchange 1t was stated
that a member had received a private dis-
patch from Washington that the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury had already decided
on such course Of action.
The best evidence. In the minds Of the
bankers that Secretary McAdoo's charges
were absolutely unjustined are the press
dispatches from all parts OF the country,
which, with no exceptions. characterize
the charges as ridiculous and not based

Won't Call for More Margin.

Secretary McAdoo emphatically declared
to-day that the Treasury would not call
for more margin on the United States :
per cent bonds 10 secure national bank
circulation because OF the decreased mar
ket value of these securities.
officials OF the Treasury stated that the
provisions OF the currency bill for the
retirement OF the bond secured currency
was originally drawn in accordance With
the exact recommendations of commit
tee OF the American Bankers Association
and was later amended al the suggestion
Of Secretary McAdoo. so that all of the
outstanding per cents would be re-
deemed in cash. with interest, at the end
of twenty years. The Treasury holds
that the bond retirement provision as now
constructed materially increases the pliyi-
leges of the holders of the ? per cents.
