Five thousand three hundred and
forty.five banking institutions In the
United States express their opinion OF
the new Federal Reserve system Of
banking In \ pamphlet entitled:
What the Banks Of the United States
Think Of the Federal Reserve Act"
Just issued by the Guaranty Trust
company OF New York.
It probably will not be very COM
forting to the Federal Reserve Board
and the sponsors Of the Act to learn.
as they will from = perusal OF the
results OF the QUESTIONABLE. that banks
maintaining critical attitude toward
the law slightly outnumber those more
favorably disposed. while those that
are non-committal on the subject ex-
coed in number either of the other
two classes.
Replies were received from 5,344
banking institutions, of which 2,709
were National or member banks, and
2.635 State banks and trust compan-
les. Banks from all over the country
responded, and 1t Is safe to assume

said r. B. Howard, Of Omaha, at

adversaries Of liquor, Col William
Jennings Bryan and his brother,

case OF West Virginia, according
to this dispatch from Charleston
to the Baltimore Sun:
Bootleggers and speak easy pro-
prietors all over the state are jubi-
liant over the possibility that all
the special officers employed to
enforce the state prohibition laws
Will be dismissed because Of lack
OF funds in the state treasury. Of
the $4,000 to the credit Of the
state prohibition department, but
$S65.86 now remains, and there will
be no more money forthcoming be-
fore July l.
Officers Of the state prohibition
department are making desperate
efforts to keep the officers at work.

They claim there will be sufficient
assurance of funds from private
sources to enable them to retain
all the officers. 1t is known that
there are number OF wealthy men
In the state willing to contribute
