PROTEST
SECRETARY M ADOO'S
CHARGES OF 'USUARY'
Criticise as Unfair His
Blacklist Enumerating
Banks Ch arged With
Hoarding of Currency Re-
serves.
serves.

Protests from bankers against being
held up before the country as "usurers"
and as being guilty of wilfully creating
financial stringency by alleged boarding
of currency reserves began to reach the
Treasury Department today. Some Of the
letters used vigorous terms in criticislng
Secretary McAdoo's campaign against
boarding and his publication of so-called
"blackllsts" enumerating banks having a
surplus of legal reserves.
That they would be subject to severe
criticism had they failed to maintain am
pie reserves under present conditions was
the tenor of the bankers protests. For
protection Of themselves and their de-
postors, the protesting bankers contend.
1t is only prudent to maintain more thar
the minimum legal reserves during the
war situation.
Despite the bankers protests, Secretary
McAdoo today evidenced strong inten-
tions of continuing his campaign against
money boarding. Occasional additions to
his blacklist are planned. He Is re-
ceiving many letters commencing him
for Showing up the banks guilty of
boarding and demanding excessive in
terest. Some of the letters cite instances
of alleged extortion and refusal of credit.
State banking commissioners of many
States are also promising cooperation.
The list given out by Secretary McAdoo
enumerated some of the national banks
in each State of the Union which are
carrying reserves largely in excess of
the legal requirements. as shown by
their reports to the Comptroller of the
Currency as of September 12
Each one of the banks in this list is
required by law to carry a reserve of
only Is per cent. The reserves they are
holding range from % per cent. to IA per
cent. If the large amount of loanable
funds that is kept from active employ
ment, as indicated by these figures. was
invested in commercial or agricultural
paper, or loaned on proper security, the
present situation would be greatly i'm
proved" said Mr.. McAdoo.
Some of the national banks in this city
were included in the initial list.

plunged from the window he had been
conversing in the library of his home

short time later his body was found ly-
ing on the pavement.
