Administration Hop" s
Conferences Here Will
Evolve a Plan.
RESERVE SCHEME
OPEN TO EUROPE
Acceptances Would Have Adj
vantag2s and Drawbacks or
Short Term Notes.

Washington. Sept. l5.-The admins
tration strongly hopes a satisfactory
method Of establishing a credit IN the
United States by the Allies will be
worked out Reports o. the confer
caccs IN New York between the Anglo
French Commission and American
bankers are received here with an
eagerneas second only to that displayed
concerning information on the subma-
rine warfare situation.
The position Of the administration
was reflected forcibily by the plan
raJlished in The Tribune this morn
ing, which showed that Reserve bank
could finance what would amount 10
loans 10 the governments Of the AllleS
through the rediscounting Of accept
ances Of drafts drawn by those govern
ments on American banks. The only
objection to this plan would be that
the acceptances would have to be re-
rcwed at three monthly intervals, and
would. of course, have TO be paid OIL
finally by bond issue.
That is, the acceptances. which
might readily amount to half billion
dollars or more, might be renewed
every three months during the entire
duration Of the war, but some time o.
other they would have to be liquida;ed.
Then it would be necessary for the
governments which had drawn the pa
per to float bond issue to retire IT,
The same objections and advantages
attach to the use Of this government
drawn paper as apply to the issuance
Of short-term notes by railroad compa-
MES. The advantage is that they are
for a short period, and can therefore
be placed more readily when the banks
have d large amount of unloaned
money which they do not want 20 tie
up in long-term bonds. On the other
haac. the need for refunding come
speedily. With the railroads the short
term note is usually used during a
reriod of high interest rates, because
the company does not want to sell q
bond which will run for long term OF
wears and on which a high interest
! charge will have to be paid during that
entire time. So the day of the bond
issue is postponed through the short
time not device, until time when the
! interest rates are lower and lon2-tcrm
/ bonds can be hoatcd to greater advan-
/ tage.
But in the case of paper drawn by
the Allied governments the big advan-
taee is that it provides method by
which the resources of the Federal Re
serve bankns can be used, as these &C
ceptances could be .cdiscounted by the
Reserve banks. VIII bonds could not
be. There has been no agreement with
the representatives of the Allies on tn
US Of this plan. 1t merely has beer
proposed in administration circles and
approved.
Nor is theR to be any attempt to
compel the individual Reserve banks to
rediscount such acceptances. The ad-
mnistration hereby has let it be known
that it approves this method Of hnanc-
ing the needs of the Allies. with the OBJ
iect of restoring the exchange edul-

Il is believed that the Allies would

hiles and other supplies they would

tion until yesterday had not been
looked for. In practically every case
the speakers declined TO be quoted by
name. All gave the same impression
that they had felt injured by the
assumption that ties OF kinship or of
business with Germany would keep
them from giving their support to a
project which will undoubtedly be Of
great benefit to the United States,
even though the Allies likewise reap
advantage from it.
In Wall Street much importance was
attributed TO the reported visit of Sir
Ernest Cassel 10 the Offices of Kuhn,
Loeb & Co. in the course of the morn
ing. Sir Ernest, like James J. Hill,
who visited the Kuhn, Loeb Offices on
Monday, was believed TO be acting as
an emissary of those who have been
most concerned in the negotiation of
the loan. Like Mr.. Hill, he is a per-
sonal friend of Jacob H. Schiff. At
Kuhn, Loeb E. Co.'S Offices neither
confirmation nor denial could be OBJ
tanned of the rumor of his visit II
was said, however, that if he had been
there yesterday or Monday or any
other day there need not be any more
importance attached to his call than
to any visit he made to his friends in
New York.
Was King Edwards Adviser.
Sir Ernest Cassel came over on the
same steamer with the Anglo-French
mission. He has been closely con-
nected with at least one of its mem
bers, Sir Henry Darlington Smith, in
the conduct of banks in Egypt, and,
though of German origin, he was for
years a power in British finance. He
was the closest personal friend of the
late King Edward, whose financial ad-
wiser he was until the latter's death.
Because of the agitation in England
after the outbreak of the war against
persons of German name or birth in
important official positions, Sir Ernest,
like ~ir Edgar Speyer, the London
pa..ner Of Speyer & Co., the New York
bankers. was forced to resign from the
Privy Council But he has strenu-
ously insisted on his British senti-
ment, and although he said his arrival
in this country on the same vessel
that brought the financial mission was
