BANKERS CONVENTION
Says Only Securities
Aiding War Progress
Should Be Issued Now

Baltimore Nov. 1.-THE Inventment
Bankers Association which opened It's
convention here today decided TO
frown on every unnecessary issue OF
securities while war financing impends,
The response came after an address
on the conservation OF capital by
James +. Curtis, secretary of the Fed
eral Reserve Bank of New York. Mr..
Curtis set for tn the necessity of cut
ting off all securities not absolutely
vital to the progress of the war es-
pecially state and municipal issues.
THE invitation which Mr.. Curtis
has given is one to join the suicide
Club" said Lewis B. Franklin of New
York. president of the association.
But as he has aptly said, there are
about a million and a quarter men IN
khaki who have joined the Suicide
Club" for us. They are doing it with
their life blood: we are only consid-
ering the profit"
The tenor of the discussion which
followed was that the members should
forget the word House" now. as they
uiu III tllc iLlDCIiS Ivan "'i"
agree upon unselfish cooperation in
war financing. The association will
likely make a direct appeal to the gov
ernor OF every state TO issue a proc
lamation calling on financial boards
of states and cities to withhold all
bond issues which can be dispensed
with at this time.
\ warning was issued against
'Sharpers" who, it was said. are likely
to get busy when those owning Lib
erty Bonds of small demonations pay
for these and do not know their value
or what to do with them. These
"Sharpers", it was said. would be ready
with wildcat issues and the small in
vestor must be protected against them.
President Franklin said If Germany
were victorious. she would turn to this
country to refill her empty treasury
