CON MEN INTERVIEWED.
Portland Makes Bid for Branch Bank
Statistical information ia
Excluded.

Portland, Ore, Feb. "A branch
regional bank at Portland, with a main
bank at San Francisco was urged upon
William G. McAdoo, secretary of the
treasury, and David +. Houston, secre.
tary OF agriculture, by bankers of
Washington, Idaho and Oregon here.
The secretaries concluded their hear
ing and Went to San Francisco.
AS at Seattle, the secretaries re-
peatedly reminded hearers that the
maximum capital stock of regional
bank which national banks in Wash
ington, Oregon, Idaho and western
Montana could subscribe, on a basis
OF SIX per cent Of their own capital,
would fall a million dollars short of
the $4,OOO,000 capitalization required.
With this in mind, A. L. Mills, pres
ident of the Portland Clearing house,
expressed his personal opinion that
but one bank should be established on
the Pacific coast and that at San Fran
cisco. Bankers at Los Angeles al
ready have taken this view, so there
is no visible opposition to it.
What the bankers who spoke yes
terday said they wanted was limita-
ton of the number of reserve banks
to eight, and branch bank at Port
land which eventually might be ex-
banded into regional bank to meet
the demands of this tremendous area
as it develops.
Much Statistical information about
the Northwest was excluded by the
secretaries and some men were sent
for who were not on the list Of
speakers as made up here.
Individual Banks Asked Preference.
Washington.-Requ were mailed
from the treasury department to ma
tional banks and state banks and trust
companies which have signified their
intention to join new federal reserve
intention to join the new federal re-
serve banking system, asking for an
indication Of preference as to the loca-
ton OF the reserve bank to serve their
district. The banks were told that the
reserve bank organization committee
wished to consider the location of re-
serve banks and the districts to be
served by them from all practical
standpoints.

Run on Bank Well Handled.

New York, Jan. 31.-Millions of dol
FAIRS of the resources of city financial
institutions were offered to the Bank
for Savings when depositors began a
run for which the banks officials could
not account, except that it might have
resulted from malicious rumors cir
culated by enemies. The bank, found
ed in 1919, is reputed to be one of the
strongest in the state. Walter Trim
BILE, it's president, said the banking
firms offered him $4,000, 900 if needed.
