BANKERS TOLOAN
FOR NECESSITIES,
NOTFORLUXUR|ES

Washington bankers today are ap-
plying q keener scrutiny to applica-
tions for loans as q result Of the
warning sounded last night by Frank
A. Vanderlip, president of the Ma
tional City Bank, of New York, at the
annual convention OF the District
Bankers Association at the New Will
lard.
All OF the financial energy Of the
country must be applied &c the con-
duct OF the war, II we are to come out
victorious, vanderlip told the bank
ers, and every expenditure for luxur-
les retards the success OF our cause.
1t is the patriotic duty Of the banks
to refuse loans for projects not Con-
nected with the great purpose, and the
speaker urged the bankers that they
make no advances where the object IL
not q necessity.
The Washington times., 1917-10-16
Up to Masses.

Vanderlip pointed out that the
means Of financing the conflict lie In
the masses Of the people, and declared
that 1t is the duty OF the banks to
see that every opportunity is given
them to invest In the country's
bonds. The Federal reserve banks,
he said had practically saved the sit,
uation because OF their facilities for
handling the tremendous war loans.
All the banks in the country should
belong to the steadily growing sys-
tenn.
The officers of the association elect
ed for the year are Corcorans Thorn,
vice president Of the American Sc
curity and Trust Company, president;
A G. Clapham, president OF the Com
mercial National, frst vice president;
N. d. Rosenburg, president or the
Bank OF Commerce and Savings, Sec
ond vice president; Eugene E. Thomp-
son, OF the nrm of Crane, Paris
and Company, secretary, and A s.
Galley, cashier OF the Lincoln Ma
tional, treasurer.
A resolution was adopted express
ing appreciation of the services OF
z. s. Wolfe. secretary for the past
three years, who is leaving Washing
ton to become an official Of the Ma
tional City Bank OF New York
Banks Open NlGhtsL
The amount previously voted to
the Liberty loan committee for carry
ing on the campaign in the District
was Increased from 5000 to $4,000.
and It was decided that all banks In
the association should remain open
until $50 the rest of the week, sx-
cept Saturday, and every night next
week until o o'clock, to AFFORD every
possible facility to Liberty bond sub
