OF six OF the largest life insurance
companies In the United States.
They expressed their optimism In
interviews with the United Press
today.
Prosperity in the east, In their
opinion. Is due to orders from Euro

SECOND INSTALL MEhT
Of STOCK IS SOON QUE
FEDERAL RESERVE BANK At
DALLAS ~ NOTIFIED OF
GAIL TO BE MADE.
Daily Light Special.

Dallas, Tex. Jan. l3.-The Fed
eral Reserve Bank at Dallas has
been notified that ON or before
Feb. the Federal Reserve Board
at Washington will issue a call for
payment OF the second inStallment
on stock subscriptions. The an
nouncement was made yesterday
morning by W. +. G. Harding,
chairman of the Federal Reserve
Board.
This means that member banks Of
the Eleventh District will pay into
the Federal Reserve Bank at Dallas
another one-sixth of their combined
capital and surplus The total will
amount to about $9GO,000.
When the second installment is
paid the Dallas bank viii have await
able for rcdiscounting live stock
and agricultural paper the sum OF
approximately $1,700,0o0. This
bank is entitled to make such re
discounts up 10 80 per cent OF its
capital. The rate on such transac-
lions, which shall not exceed long
er than six months, is 6 per cent.
II is safe to anticipate that tho
directors of the Dallas bank are
not going TO request that a per
cent rate on notes secured by cot
ton. as suggested by Congressman
r. l.. Henry. be approved by the
Federal Reserve Board. Mr.. Henry
contendcd that the reserve banks
could better help the cotton situa-
ton by allowing the reduced rate
II is pointed out that TO attempt
to valOrizc a specific article, such a
| cotton. the reserve bank might lay
itself liable to serious cutangle-
meuts in the future. To grant a 4
per cent rate on notes secured by
cotton, as against a higher rate ON
other similar commodities, would be
setting a bad precedent, as we'll as
| forcing u discrimination it is claim
| ed.
