PRAISE AND BLAME
FEDERAL RESERVE
Credit Men. Fail to Agree
On Effects of Sys-
tenn.

An attack was made yesterday on
imitation possible under the Federal
Reserve law, by A. F. Thomas, of
Lynchburg. at the meeting of the
Virginia Maryland and District of
Columbia section of the National
Credit Mems Association.
Thomas said imitation under the
law gives rise TO illusions by mag
nifying the shadow of business de-
preston. He stated that after al
lowing one basis of exchange. it
was arbitrarily changed. and while
obligations of debtors are as large
as ever. in the process OF defation
the debt-paying power was made
smaller. He emphasized the fact
that his criticisms were directed
toward the method which tries to
make 40 cents into a gold dollar"
and not toward the organization.
w. NJ. Turner. president OF the
American National Bank Of Roam
