Atlanta, Ga, Oct Ex-Governor
NJ. B. Wellborn, of the Federal Re-
serve Bank of Atlanta, in a statement
today urged the advisability of non
member banks joining the federal re-
serve system and .mobilizing their
reserve deposits with those of mem
Der banks to meet the present .unsat-

district
Public opinion said Governor
Wellborn, which is the governing
power in this country should take a
hand in this matter and urge upon
the State banks the necessity of be-
coming members of the Federal Re-
serve Bank and thus strengthen our
great financial system so that all the
people in the Atlanta Federal Reserve
District would get the benefit of the
added mobilization OF the State bank
reserves.
TT is. evident that the public at
this time is more than ever before

decline in cotton, which in our chief
staple crop and the welfare of our
section depends largely upon the
proper financing of cotton to bring
about prosperous business conditions.
while the Federal Reserve Banks
of Atlanta has been able to take care
of the situation by extending credit
odations to its member banks
and through those banks indirectly
aiding nom member institutions, it
has its limitations. How much better
would we be able to cope with the
must be remembered that indirect aid
problems confronting us if the 'non-
State banks had modified
their reserve deposits which they are
required by law to maintain, with
those of the 450 member banks whom
are now bearing the burden. There

Rumanian Confirms Presidents
Objection to Amending
League, Says Harding.
RULE OF JUSTICE URGED
Republican Nominee. Quotes
from Jefferson, Cleveland
and Woodrow Wilson.
{ey Associated Press,

Marion, ohio. Oct 23-Alluding for
the first time to the controversy be-
tween President Wilson and Senator
Spencer, over the formers Paris utter
ances regarding Americas part. In
maintaining European peace, Senator
Harding said tonight that the Version
Of the presidents words recently pub
lished in this country and attributed to
Premier Bartiano of Rumania, served
to throw new light on the real charac-
ter of Article y.
The controversy as to the exact Ian
guage used by Mr.. Wilson was not
itself discussed by the Republican
nominee, who said in reply to a ques-
tion that it was not his dispute. He
added, however. that 1.-THE belated tes-
timony of the Rumanian premier is
very interesting by way of confirming
the presidents objections to amend
ing the league covenant.
1t has been the Republican purpose
all along to establish a world associa-
tion for the rule of justice rather than
force
Clearly Europe understands that
which we are coming to know, that
the league as written commits Amer
lea to the armed support of the four
great powers in maintaining the in
tegrity of their enlarged dominions
whenever attacked from without This
is why America will vote its unalter-
able hostility to article 10.
The senator made no speeches dur
ing the day. but in celebrating his
comment on the Bratiano interview he
gave out several quotations from
Thomas Jeffersaf, Grover Cleveland
and Woodrow Wilson which he said
had a direct bearing on the whole
league issue. He called attention that
it was 81 years ago tomorrow that
Jefferson wrote to Monroe:
"Our first and fundamental maxim
should be. never to entangle ourselves
in the broils of Europe"
The following was issued by Cleve-
land in December, 1888:
I'VE have foreborne from taking
part in any controversy between for
elgn states, but have left to every
nation the exclusive conduct and man
agement of its own affairs"
His quotation from President Wilson
was taken from a newspaper report Of
the presidents words on May 6, 1914,
and was as follows:
america should lead her own life.
We cannot form alliances with those
who are not going our way. We need
not and we should not form alliances
with any nation in the world"
