fort TO the affected parts, warming

In a statement made public with
the telegram, Mr.. McAdoo declared
there was an extraordinary boarding
of money by banks throughout the
country and piling up OF reserves
without occasion. He said reports to
the comptroller of the currency
showed money boarding has been
carried on By banks to an extreme
degree. and announced he expected tt
focus attention upon the guilty banks
by issuing a daily list of those with
excessive reserves.
Although the federal government
has no power over state banks or
