George A. CASTOR, Of Castor, Will

returned from a two months business
trip abroad, stated yesterday that the

Financiers Look
For Many Bank
Consultations
Bankers Trust Liberty Ma
tional Merger Is Still at
Talking Stage; Deal Long
I'm der Consideration

Wall Street is on the threshold of a
period of bank mergers, in the opinion
of the senior officers of several of the
leading financial institutions. The re-
ported consolidation of the Bankers
Trust Company and the Liberty Ma
tional Bank has not yet been effected,
and officials of both institutions.
though admitting that conversations
had been held, denied that any tangible
results had yet been obtained.
Harvey D. Gibson, president of the
Liberty National Bank, declared: "The
matter of the merger of the Bankers
Trust Company and the Liberty Nation
al Bank has been the subject of in
formal discussions for some time. No
decision or definite understanding has
resulted and we cannot say when any,
thing will occur which could be pub
lished properly. The matter has not
even reached point where it could be
referred to the board of directors" A
similar statement was issued by the
Bankers Trust Company.
If the deal should go through, the
combined institution would be known
as the Bankers Trust Company and
charter, but as a member Of the Fed
eral Reserve system. In all proba-
bility, according to those who are we'll
informed, Mr.. Gibson would become
president of the merged institutions,
and Seward Presser, president of the
Bankers Trust Company, would be
made chairman of the board of d.
rectors. The capital of the merger
would be $25,0O0,000, and the surplus
$25 ,000;O00, and the deposits $4O0,00O,-
900.
The object of the merger, according
to it's advocates, would be that it would
make the combined institution clearly
the third largest banking institution
in the country, tagging behind only the
National City Bank and the Guaranty
Trust Company. 1t is argued that great
resources are needed to meet the new
conditions of world banking and that
mergers will give the strength and
breadth necessary. 1t was indicated
that the combined institution, if it
comes into being, will energetically 20
into branch banking and would seek to
jump into leadership in international
banking.
Some bankers who are of the opinion
that the same tendencies which in the
last several years caused numerous
bank mergers in England will bring
consultations here. Among the banks
mentioned in the speculations of
bankers who foresee consultations are
| the National Bank of Commerce, the
Mechanics and Metals Bank the Ma
| tional City Bank and the Chase Ma
tional. The last named institution has
acquired the Metropolitan Bank. and it
| is believed that it may eventually take
it over as branch and establish other
| branches.

Lamont Appeals
For Support of
New Consortium
Banker Tells Foreign Rela-
tons Council That Trade
in the Orient Hinges ON
Efforts of individuals

Thomas W. Lamont, of J. P. Morgan
& Co., who yesterday presided over a
luncheon given at the Bankers Club
by the Council of Foreign Relations, at
which Far Eastern affairs were dis
cussed, appealed to "all good Ameri-
cans" to cooperate with the bankers
who represent the United States in the
Chinese consortium.
I'VE must remember" the banker de-
clarcd, "the formation of the con-
sortium, now that Japan had decided
to come in, is but the first step in q
long and arduous pathway. The bank
Ing groups themselves will have to dis
play toward one another great patience
great tolerance. Coalitions never
function readily; international partner
ships always prove difficult, but the
fact that we are all engaged in one
enterprise and with one principle in
view-namely, the welfare of China
to reach that happy end we must be-
speak the cooperation of all good cit
liens.
"The policy of the United States
government with respect to the Far
East has been criticized in the past as
not having been altogether consistent
But in this particular matter of the
consortium, since it took it up afresh
two years ago, its policy has been con-
sistent, energetic, courageous. But the
success of the consortium, the main
tenance of American trade in the Far
East, rests in the last analysis not
upon governments, but upon private
citizens and upon their support.
Japan undoubtedly showed broad
mindedness and wisdom in waving her
reservations in regard to Manchuria
and Mongolia. She was courageous in
recognizing that those reservations
were of no value to her and If main
tanned would only serve as an in
evitable bar to her entering as a free
and full partner in the consortium.
AS one of her leading men said to me-:
I want Japan to enter the consortium
on the same terms as the other bank
tions of the consortium will best de-
velop China, and from such develop
ment Japan will benefit most; second,
through the consortium the four ma
tions will be brought into closer touch,
and, third but not least, because Japan
has not the resources wherewith to de-
velop China alone
Jacob Gould Schurman, ex-president
of Cornell University, who recently re-
turned from a trip to Japan, defended
the foreign policy Of the empFSe and
said that above all it wished peace with
the United States. Henry w. Taft, who
was in Japan with DR.. Schurman. said
he came from Japan openminded in
regard to it's policies, but with firm
conviction that Americans ought to

To Pay Off Ford Loan

The last instalment of the accept
ance credit granted last July to the
Ford Motor Company by the Chase Sc
curities Company, Bond & Goodwin
and the Old Colony Trust Company of
Boston will be paid off tomorrow, ac-
cording to the bankers. This maturity
amounts to $35,000,000. The bankers
in their arrangement with the Ford
company year ago contracted to lend
$75,000,0O0, but only $60,0O0,000 of this
maturities were in the form of ninety
day notes, the interest rate being de-
pendent on the open market rate for
commercial paper, the first notes being
rediscounted at 51a per cent. Accord
ing to the terms Of the loan, the COM
pany agreed to pay off 100000 of
the total at the expiration of the first
ninety days.

Chicago Happy

Chicago gets back upon the spec
ulative map to-day. Trading in wheat
futures is scheduled to be resumed
and the stage is all set at the Chi
cago Board of Trade for the big event
Trading in wheat futures ceased
August IS, 1917. nearly three
years ago. The September option
was the only one traded in
at that time, and the range of prices
for this month on the last trading
day was $40 to $2.13 bushel
The closing price was $2.13. Around
the grain trade they have been talk
ing of a price of $3.50 as the basis
on which operations will be resumed
Some of the biggest operators have
recently taken somewhat bearish
view of the outlook for wheat prices
basing their sand upon the more
promising crop prospect here and the
indications of smaller export
demand.

American Wooden

Ever since the announcement that
the American Wooden syndicate had
been left with more than $4,000
900 of new $2OO00,0oO common stock
on its hands traders have made the
present issue the object of bear at
tacks. The result Of their efforts
yesterday brought out a considerable
amount of stock and the price got
down to SSH, or nearly 10 points below
the underwriting price of the new
stock. The opinion was expressed in
banking quarters that the pessimism
over the disappointing results of the
new financing was being overdone, par
ticularly in view of the company's
strong asset position. After the net
proceeds of the new financing 49,
00O,000) are paid in, it is stated that
the company will have net quick as
sets of over 100000, which after
deducting the preferred stock at par
would leave nearly sos share for the
common. The syndicate managers have
notified participants in the underwrit-
ing that SO per cent of their subscrip-
ton is due to be paid July 81 and the
balance August 6.

the stock market session had added

sold the stock heavily at the opening
on reports of lunfavorable develop

quickly absorbed. A telegram re-
ceived by New York directors of the

corning the Tulsa dispatch stated that
the drilling operations in the Arkan-
sas field thus far had fully met the
expectations of the company.
