Although the price of whisky has not
increased in proportion to the high cost
of living. the police say Phillip McCul-
Tough. of 23l5 Vine street, attempted to

up as a bad job on finding the machine
locked. Then, according to the police
man, the other Mccullough took a num-

In his pocket.

BANKS URGE DEFEAT
OF INTERLOCKING
DIRECTORATE BILL
Clearing House Here Tells
Congress Measure Would
Be a Serious Blow to Fl
nancial Institutions.

Bankers in this city are urging defeat
bill, which would prohibit interlocking
directorates. The bill is now before Con-
gress Urging that this section of the
BILL as far as 1t affects banks and trust
companies, be stricken out, kilograms
were today sent by the Philadelphia
Clearing House Association to the chair
man of the Judiciary Committees of the
Senate and House, Senators Penrose and
oliver and members of the House of Rep
resentatives from Philadelphia
Attention Is called to the fact that IL
this section is Incorporated into law 1t
the directors of many banks and trust
companies, and men who have a wide
business experience will be barred from
action as directors, thus causing a serious
blow to be dealt the institutions. At a
time when the new currency system is
about to be placed in operation these
men will be needed more than ever bfore,
say the bankers.
The kilograms, signed by Joseph Moore,
Jr., president OF the Philadelphia Clear
Ing House Association and of the National
Bank of Northern Liberties, and Levi l..
Rue, chairman of the Clearing House
Committee and president of the Phila-
delpha National Bank, read as follows:
II is our opinion that IL section 8. Clayton
antitrust bill. respecting interocking direc-
tors, is adopted by Congress and becomes a
law, 1t VIII deal serious blow to the banks
and trust companies of the larger cities OF
the country, and while doubtless intended to
conserve the peoples interests, is really most
detrimental to those interests. The country is
about to inaugurate banking system
Vast changes In banking methods are to take
place. and IL there was n time in the
history of the country when the managements
OF the banks and trust companies should be
In strong and experienced hands, II Is now.
The resources of the banks and trust COM
panes belong to the people. with them they
place their savings and the managements OF
their estates, the benefciares OF which are
largely and children. Their directors
should be men of broad vision, wide expert
ence, sound judgment and in touch with the
commerce and trade of the world. The bill
as written will strip these institutions of
many of the ablest men on their boards OF
directors.
We therefore most respectfully urge upon
Congress that section s, Of the Clayton anti
trust bill as affecting banks and trust COM
panies, be stricken out
