DIES MONIES, Iowa, Sept. LIN
terviews with Iowa bankers IN half
dozen cities today. show wide diner
ence of opinion regarding the advis-
ability of aiding in the billion dollar
war loan to the allied naN2ns OF
Europe, but they all agree on ono
point, the security must be ample and
nearly all demand American collat-
eral. Former Congressman A. F. Daw.
son. president OF the First National
bank OF Davenport voiced the ideas Of
the eastern Iowa bankers when he
said:
1T would contribute to our world
supremacy in finance to require
France and England to deposit Amer
fcan securities as collateral for the
proposed loan. A loan on straight
foreign government bonds would
leave France and England in position
to dump their large holdings of Amer
lean securities on this market later,
possibly to our detriment."
Waterloo bankers think the loan II
properly secured by American securi-
ties, would revive business and aid
materially in the market for crops.
German-American bankers who have
big deposits in many Iowa banks
might be expected to withdraw depos
its If their bank loaned money to the
allies. regardless Of the security.
