BUILDING LOANS
HELD ESSENTIAL
Federal Reserve Board Urges
Banks to Encourage =.
Construction.

Bank loans for building operations
are essential" and no restrictions are
put on them under the credit policy OF
the Federal Reserve Board, Governor
Harding said, in an opinion made pup
lie today. Governor Harding's opinion,
an answer to the lumber interests
said the board is not responsible TOT
any restrictions of credit to the build-
ing industry, but considers structural
projects as a fundamental necessity
along with other basic necessities
"While the Federal Reserve Board
has pointed out the necessity for the
exercise of more discriminating judg-
ment by banks generally in granting
accommodations, it has repeatedly
stated that care should be taken to do
nothing to interfere with essential
production" Governor Harding said.
"The board has never undertaken TO
define what in its opinion might be re-
garded as essential or non-essenuai
loans. II has stated that this is
matter which should properly be left
to the judgment of the individual
banks.
There can be no question that the
production and distribution OF the
basic necessities of life, such as food
fuel and clothing, are essential. and
IL is obvious tnat snelteT aiso 10 Z"
fundamental necessity.
THE Federal Reserve Board does
not feel that 1t can be Justly charged
with responsibility for any restrictions
of credit to the building industry
Builders should now have no diff
ficulty in securing necessary short
time loans at their banks to finance
operations, the governor said. Refer
ring to the rigid provisions OF the
Federal reserve act, limiting the re-
discount transactions of the reserve
banks, Governor Harding stressed
the point that reserve banks are not
allowed by law to make direct loans
to borrowers.
Governor Harding said he and his
associates on the board recogn nize
that various factors have served to
slow up building activity, such as
poor transportation facilities and
high cost of materials.

Omitted States attorney and Charles
V. Duny. collector OF internal reye-
nue.. on appeal from the Federal

involving the constitutionality OF the
prohibition amendment to the Consti-
tuition and the Volstead act. There Is
no reason. however. to expect the
court will change it's view announced

held.
Another important case involving
the prohibition issue Is that OF Will

posit Company. an appeal from the
Federal Court for the Southern Dis

SAYS 1920 GAMES BAD
Prosecutor Hoyne Says Plans
Laid to Fix Coming Series.

From New York With New Evil
dence of Baseball crookedness.

which bought up White Sox players
to throw last seasons worlds series

more. And plans were laid By the
gamblers tc Fix" the 1920 series.
Such were the charges revealed by
States Attorney Hoyne when he re-
turned from New York. He immedi-
ately took charge of the grand jury
investigation. Mr.. Hoyne said:
II have evidence that several of the
1920 games were fixed and have in
formation that the forthcoming series
was to be fixed
"While in New York / gathered to-
gether loose threads of a 1920 scandal
in baseball which would far surpass
that of last season." he said 1T ap-
peared that the gamblers had met
with such success that they were
brazen in their plans to pollute the
national sport. Rumors of their
crookedness were floating from the
housetops, as 1t were.
"And there was evidence, foo,
though had not sufficient time TO run
it down to a certainty. But left nu-
merous trusty investigators in the
East and am expecting them to COM
plete the work ] starred.
what will be the result? will
not say at this time, but | will ven
ture the assertion that there is more
and bigger scandal coming in the
baseball world"
After a conference with his aids
over the past work of the grand jury
and its results, Mr.. Hoyne went be-
fore the tribunal to assure 1t that he
was wholly in accord with it's actions.
