Fifty-one Cities Show a
Per Cent More than
on January |.
POWER TO ADMINISTER
ESTATES is DEFENDED
Reserve Board Says Banks Can
Exercise Such Functions
Without Conflict.
from IN. Tribune bureau. ]

Washington, April Q. Indicating that
national banks throughout the country
have more money available for loans
than they had the first OF the year,
figures compiled at the Office Of the
Controller Of the Currency to-day
showed an increase OF nearly 4 per
cent in the reserves in the ffty-one
reserve cities, and an increase Of nearly
2 per cent in the reserves in central re-
serve cities
In the central reserve cities the
figures showed that the reserves
amounted to 24.62 per cent Of the de-
posits on March 4. the latest date for
which fgur~ are available. as COM
pared with 22.S9 per cent on December
81. As the legal requirement is only
Is per cent, the excess Of reserves over
the legal minimum in the central re-
serve cities is G.62 per cent.
In the hfty-One reserve cities the
reserves amounted 10 26.52 per cent OF
the deposits on March 4, as against
22.G3 per cent on December 81. For
reserve cities the amount OF reserve
required is 10 per cent. so that the
excess on the last date for which fig
ures are available was l1.52 per cent
Treasury Department experts inter
preted the figures 10 mean that the
amount of money available for loan
ing il very large. They pointed out
that this also showed that the demand
for money By business was not IN
creasing to any remarkable extent,
though the trend would be only shown
bv complete figures as 20 the char
acter of the loans Of December 81, as
compared with March 4. IL was SAIL
here that there has been a big decrease
in the amount Of loans on securities
since December, because of the remova!
Of all limitations on dealing in stocks
on the exchanges. There might there
fore be a small increase in business
loans without increasing the total.
The reserve cities showing the heRv-
lest reserves were: Galveston, 4i.O9 per
cent: Dubuque, ABA per cent; South
Omaha, 39.49 per cent; Minneapolis,
1920 per cent; Des Moines. 1852 per
cent; Seattle. 34.S3 per cent; Pueblo,
1886 per cent: Fort Worth, 32l5 per
cent; Kansas City, 1918 per cent; Gin
cinnati. 5000 per cent; Portland, 8O42
per cent
Stating that a mistaken impression
prevailed as to the effect of the pro-
vision in the Federal Reserve act per-
hitting a national bank TO act as trus-
tee, executor or administrator, the Re-
serve Board to-day issued statement
in which it says:
ut is assumed both az a matter Of
law and as d matter Of policy that
national banks exercising the powers
referred to will be subject TO the state
laws relating TO the administration Of
trustee estates, just as any other cor
poration which is permitted by state
authority to exercise these powers.
"When such estates are administered
under the jurisdiction of courts, the
national bank appointed by the court or
named in the instrument creating the
trust will, Of course, be subject to the
orders and rules Of such courts. and
there should not be any conflict Of
jurisdiction in so far as the admins
tration Of such estate is concerned

SIGNS OF UPTURN

Weekly reviews Of the commercial

ity. but Improvement is not confined

the more scasonable weather, indica-
tions Of a business upturn are strong
or than they have been since last
spring.
"Dun's Review says; Influences
favoring business are now more nu-
merous and potent and there is unmis-
taxable trend toward expanding activ-
ity. In certain lines conservatism con-
tinues the controlling policy, and thus

entirely aside from our own investl-
cations, the absence of manipulation
is sufficiently attested by the VIDE
variations in yesterdays prices. It Is
apparent that manipulation, II there
were any, would have the precisely op-
posite efFect-that is to say, It would
be expressed i'm the form OF frequent
transactions at narrow differences. AS
TO a. corner, the fact that the stock has
never loaned at better than Hat
rate shows that neither corner nor
any other artificial impeachment exists.
cone Of the reasons why the stock
fuctuated so widely, now that hoating
supply has been greatly reduced, IS the
absence Of the floor trader from the
market, as contrasted with previous
years. The federal tax Of 81 per 100
shares superimposed on the state tax
of s. per 100 has placed such a handi-
cap in the way Of what is known as
room trade that those formerly &C
