Federal FinancierS Favor an
Amendment TO Law TO Ell
feet Purpose Sought.

Washington. Oct. 12.-After giving
extended consideration TO the written
wishes OF President Wilson and Score
tary of the Treasury NcAdoo, the Fed
eral Reserve Board to-day disapproved
Secretary McAdoos suggestion that
Joint agencies be established in all the
important Latin-American cities. A
committee report. which the board APP
proved, declared that Federal Reserve
banks. being the custodians Of the re-
serve money Of the member banks.
should not be permitted to do pioneer
work in Latin-American countries,
granting credit facilities which would
lead to lookup Of reserve money in
loans, which, in most of the cases,
would be subject to wide fluctuations
of foreign exchange"
Pioneer work in the Latin-American
countries. the board decided. should be
done By member banks of the Federal
Reserve system, and with this end In
view it promised support to an amend
ment which would enable the members
20 cooperate in owning and operating
foreign banks.
Secretary McAdoo Concurs.
Secretary McAdoo recently suggested
establishment Of joint agencies. and
the proposal was approved by Presi-
dent Wilson in a letter which Mr.. Nc
Adoo made public and then laid be-
fore the Reserve Board. To-day the
Secretary. explaining tina. the plan he
favored did not contemplate operations
of the character objected 70, joined IN
/ the action of the board in approving
an unfavorable committee report.
Nice-Governor Delano, Paul VI. War
burg and ". 2. G.. Harding composed
the committee.
THE committee took the position
saws a formal statement issued by the
board after to-day's meeting, that

ought 20 be permitted 10 develop the
opportunities first. but that, IN trade
/ centres where American banks are not

Federal Reserve banks to appoint JOINT

considered By the board, was as fol-

EVIDENCE LACKING
TO WARRANT VERDICT
Supreme Court Reverses Suit Origin
ating in Second Judicial District Af-
fecting Payment vi Promisory
Note

In an opinion written by Chief JUS
tice Sullivan and eoncurred in by
Justice Bulge and Justice Morgan,
the supreme court reversed the de-
cision of Judge Steele of the second
judicial district, in the case of w. F.
Burdell, Plaintiff and appellant, vs..
Orton Nereson and others, defend
ants and respondents. Burdell pur-
chased from Mclaughlin Bros. in Au-
gust, 1909, promissory note signed
by the defendant and others for
S1125. with interest, which fell due
November ! following. Two pay
ments amounting to S237.5O had
been made before the purchase. Bur-
dell was not aware that the note had
been dishonored when he bought it.
The defendants in the lower court,
introduced testimony to show that
fraud had been practiced by Nc
Laughlin Bros in obtaining the note,
and that there was a breach of guar
anty on their part on the stallion for
which the note was given. They
failed to show, however, that the
plaintiff had any notice of such fraud
or Misrepresentation The supreme
court held that the evidence was in
sufficient to support the verdict of
the jury, and remanded the cause for
further proceedings in accord with
the views expressed in the opinion.
