kota for advice. Lately he has given
some in a letter he wrote to the editor
Of the Harvey IN. d. Journal.
Explains His Letter
In conversation today former Gov.
Burke avowed the letter.
II sent it," he said, "for the infor-
nation of the people up there. It
seemed to be necessary to wake that
bank up. did not say in my letter
that the bank may be closed, as has
been reported. What l said was that
10 mistake had bean made and that II .
bank was not needed in Minneapolis
the reserve board would be glad to
know it and had power to abolish the
bank and attach the territory to Chi
cago. OF course, we know that q bank
Is needed there and that it ought to
and must be made to serve the peo-
pie" i.
Farmers Make Inquiries
In other quarters it was said that
the secretary Of the treasury and some
members Of the federal reserve board
fear that the Minneapolis reserve bank
is too much under the influence Of the
member banks. The latter, it has
been said, have plenty of money Of
their own to lend and hence they are
supposed to be keeping the resources
Of the reserve bank under cover. The
farmers wrote to Washington in great
numbers to know why they could not
have government money deposited, as
had been done in the Dallas, Atlanta
and Richmond districts. Members of
the board said they then found that
the regulations under which the Min
neapolis bank can make loans had
been given insufficient publicity in the
northwest.
Cen Get Money If Wanted
The federal reserve board did not
send money to the northwest, but it
sent the regulations which are the
same for al districts. The reason for
not sending money, rs given, is that
the Minneapolis bank has large loan
ing capacity over and above anything
it has put out to date. But If it need
Cd money it could get it on the same
conditions rs the southern banks, it
was said.

Washington, Sept. 27.-The Mime

strained terms with the federal re-
serve board because it has been criti-

the farmers. While it is unlikely that
the bank will be closed, the board has
the power to do so. But that such ex-
treme measures will be necessary is
not looked for in Washington.
