RESERVE BOARDS ORDER
CALLED DEFENSIVE ACT

The real purpose Of the warning against
investment in foreign securities issued by
the Federal Reserve Board to American
banks was to forestall the flooding of
the country with Issues OF bonds made
by small cities, towns, and municipalities
in belligerent countries, principally
Russia, Il was learned at the Treasury
Department here yesterday.
The board did not desire to make a
direct slap at the French and English
treasury bills. although that was the in
depreciation generally put on the an
nouncement. What the board did desire
to do was to warn banks not to invest ia
unsound foreign securities.
