BANK COMPETITION OUTLINED.
Federal Reserve Board IhdicItes
Relations TINT Come Within Law.

Washington. Sept. 20.-Ont OF Il
total Of 679 applying 55G directors
of national banks throughout the
country have been authori :ed by the
Federal Reserve Board to serve as
directors Of other banking nstitu-
tions under the modified Clayton act,
which now permits the board to ex-
tend such authorization where the
national banks and private or State
institutions affected are not in sub
stantial competition"
Seventy-seven applications we're
received from the Richmond reserve
district and nine from the Atlanta
district. or the former 40 were
granted and 2S denied and OF the
latter eight were granted and one
denied.
In statement tonight making
this announcement and defining
substantial competition" the board
said:
The board has considered each
case OH its own merits, but has taken
the general position that the mere
purchase by two banks Of CONNER
cial paper in the open market or the
making Of time or demand loans on
collateral securities having wide
market for the purchasing Of such
securities, need not necessarily or
invariably be considered as indicat-
ing substantial competition within
the meaning Of the Kern amendment.
1t is, however, the view of the board
that substantial competition must
be held to exist in cases where the
resources Of the banks are Of such
magnitude or OF such character that
the ability Of the banks Jointly to
grant or to withhold credit or other
wise influence the conditions under
which credit may be obtained, might.
constitute them a dominant factor in
the general loan market, even
though the character Of the deposits
carried b. the institution in question
might be quite different"

Charlotte, Sept. 22.--Salvaging
the six huge steel beams which vera
precipitated into the bed OF the Ca
tawba river by the collapse of the
Southern Railway bridge at Catawba
in July has begun. A temporary
bridge, built parable! to the structure
upon which Southern trains are now
operating and a short distance down
stream, is the indirect medium by
which the huge girders will be re-
claimed. Upon this bridge. which
starts from spur track on the
Mecklenburg side Of the river, der
rick will be showed out to the various
points where the half dozen steel bo-
nanzas are located. After the grid
trs. which range in length from so to
Is feet, have been sawed into %
feet sections, they will be plucke,!
from the river bed by the giant arm
Of the derrick and returned to shore.
Since the missing sections are scat
cred practically the entire breadth
Of the stream, it will be necessary to
stretch the temporary bridge to
within a few feet Of the Castor shore.
The nearest Of the number is resting
short distance from the Mecklen-
burg side, and the SO feet of bridge
which has now been completed. is al
most within reach of the desired
prize, which naturally, will be the
first Of the number to be rescued

The construction Of bridge to
salvage structural steel is a new de-
parture in railway engineering in
this section and the work at Catawba
is attracting much attention. The

ing to save the innocent public from
the dire consequences of a ife-aRd-
death struggle between the railroads
and the brotherhoods. He came upon
the scene only when the railroads
had come to an open break with
their employees - and did the only
thing possible to prevent a strike.
The strike had been ordered by a
referendum vote. There was no
power to stop the strike unless the
president used whatever power he
could command.
His conduct has been neither cow
ardice nor politics. It has been &C
tuated by courage of the highest or
der. He stepped into the breach as
the representative of the millions Of
men, women and children who would
suffer if the railroads stopped run
ming. He put this government in
the position it should be in-that of
being something bigger than the
combined railroad interests Of the
country.
In the eyes of Wall. street andtthe
newspaper organs of property
rights, all Wilson had to do to be a
hero and patriot was to let the men
strike and then turn the army over
to >the railroads to shoot their en-
ployes into submission.
But he wasn't a Grover Cleveland
and he didn't turn the power of this
government-including the army
over to Wall street. He took charge
of the situation himself, kept the
power Of the government in his Owl
hands and used it for the public
good. O...
Yes, the situation does constitute
"a challenge to the manhood of all
Americans" And red-blooded Amer
leans who place human rights above
rights will rally to the sup
port of a president who has the cour-
age of his democratic convictions
