Pending Questions to Affect

TOUCHES NEUTRALITY
Regulations for Acceptances
Are Hindered by Eu-

NTASlIINGTON, Jan IS.-The fed

WASIIINGToN' Jan iS'-The fed
w eral reserve board expects to
take action upon several important
pending questions following meetings
here this week OF the advisory coun-
ell and the governors Of the IL fed
eral reserve banks.
Regulations to govern the admis-
sion Of state banks and trust com
panies, rules for the redlscount Of ac-
Ceptances based on the export or inn
pOrtatlon of goods and the scope OF
clearing house operations by the re-
serve banks are all under consider
alton by the board, the council and
the governors.
The executive committee Of the
council j. B. Forgan, j. JP. Morgan,
ID. q. Wing H. H. Rue and w. s.
Rove met today in a conference pre-
llminary to meeting tomorrow Of
the entire council.
Consider State Banks.
At the suggestion OF the reserve
board the committee devoted some
attention to the question OF regula-
tlons for acceptances. No report was
made tonight. and It was understood
that the matter Will be taken up to-
morrow when all the councillors are
present
The governors are due here next
Wednesday, and are expected prl-
marily to consider state bank admis-
sIons. They are much Interested. how
ever. In the matter OF clearing house
operations by the reserve banks. The
board has considered this function OK
the bank under their direction with
great deliberation, and is not expected
TO direct all the banks to begin gen
eral clearings between the different
districts at once. The views OF the
council and the governors may have
a determining influence upon tho
boards action.
Admission OF state banks is a mat
ter OF some concern 10 the board
There Is little doubt here that the
board would be glad 10 see strong
state banks Of good character come
into the system II has not been the
idea OF members. however, that the
regulations for their admission should
be so easy I'm terms that the state in
stlttttious would be given advantages
over the national banks or the state
banks which already have become
members
War Complicates situation.
The question OF regulations for ac-
ceptances has promised TO be compli-
Gated by the European war situation
and the preservation Of neutrality
The general opinion OF the board so
far has been that acceptances based
upon real commercial transactions
even where they involve purchases OF
OF war should be subject
for redlscount By federal reserve
banks. The idea has been advanced
In some quarters that the rediscount
Of such paper by a Quasi-g government
Institution such as reserve bank. |
might be taken as an unneutral act !
The opinion Of the council may be
sought incidentally on this phase OF !
the matter. but so far as a majority |
Dt board members are said to feel |
that So long as there is no direct con-
nection between a belligerent cOun- |
try and the transactions which give /
rise to the acceptances there can be |
no valid ground for charging unneu- |
trail action.
