Federal Board Delays Action OH State
Banks.

Washington, Dec. 2.-Although the
federal reserve board will consider at
Il meeting with State bankers here
next week the question Of how State
banks are to be admitted to the fed
cral reserve system. it was said to-
night no general regulations governing
the admission of such institutions as
have already applied for membership
would be made for the present by the
board.
The law gives the board authority
20 make such regulations, but the
framing of them has proved difficult.
The principal point in question has
been the loans made by state banks
on real estate. Many instances have
come to the notice OF the board i'm
which state banks have 50 arranged
their real estate loans that their as
sets have been as liquid as though the
loans were ON commercial paper.

The city of Belgrade, which was the

the outbreak of the war, has been
under attack by the Austrians much
of the time for the last four months.
Early in August Austrian troops
reached the city, but were unable to
hold it. The advance of a new Aus
trian army through northern Servia
during the last fortnight made the po-
sitiOn of the Servian troops in Bel
grade Il hazardous one, and early
yesterday it was reported from Sofia,
Bulgaria. that the city had been

Van Dyke, Returning From Holland,
Says Mediation Movement Has Not
Come. =

Washington, Dec. DR. Henry
Van Dyke, American minister to the
Netherlands, back from his post on a
months leave, described to Secretary
Bryan today the earnest desire Of
Queen Wilhelmina and the people Of
Holland for the early ending of the
European war. ~
DR.. Van Dyke denied an oft pub
lished report that he was the bearer
Of q personal letter from the queen
relating to peace but said he had re-
ported to Mr.. Bryan "the Estate of
mind" Of the people of Holland and
conditions generally in Europe as he
has studied them. &
After talking with Secretary Bryan
for an hour DR.. Van Dykelindicated
clearly that the present didNOt seem
propitous moment to put forward
definite proposals for terms Of peace.
1.-THE desire of the UnfkSh States
for peace" he said afterwaI9e, "is a
we'll known fact. The dectSaon as to
the proper moment for us t@Eact is in
the hands of my chiefs. Tli9president
and the secretary of Stale can be
trusted to determine whenssfhat mo-
ment arrives"
The minister expressed the hope
that when the time for the tettlement
of the war arrived the Unitd States
would play a noble part" IN bringing
peace. He was also sure that the
heart Of Holland would be with the
United States in such effortS though
he would not venture prediction as
TO just what form the cooperation of
Holland or other neutral countries
might take.
DR.. Van Dyke will talk Sver con-
ditions in Europe with President Will
son tomorrow. having been In yitcd to
take luncheon at the Whiee House.
He came to the United les pri-
marily. he said, to have his sk treat
cu anu cNpeCteu W ledNc W08NlNBtON
tomorrow afternoon and sail for Hol-
land on December IL.
While at the State department DR..
Van Dyke told the newspaper men of
the efforts made by Holland to care
for the Belgian refugees.
THE people Of Holland" he said
"are peace loving folk. They are do
ing all they can for the relief of those
in distress. The Belgian people came
into Holland in great numbers and
we have been striving to give them all
the assistance We could. We have or
Ganizcd in Holland the only scheme
by which the civilian population of
Belgium can be helped. Great Brit
ain. France and Germany have APP
proved what has been done and the
work will continue
Asked rs TO reports concerning the
neutrality Of Holland or it's sympa =
thics in the present war, DR.. Van
Dyke said there was no doubt that
the queen and the majority Of the
people OF Holland were "sincercly
neutral and dcsirous for the return
Of peace"
