EXPERT ACCUSES CITY
OF PIER PROFITEERINC
Urges More Privileges to Pri-
pate Enterprises.

The shipping commerce OF the port Of
New York is being held up by. pier
profiteers and the city Is leading the
profiteers, was the charge made before
the Board of Estimate yesterday by A.
r. Smith. marine commerce magazine
editor. who appeared TO urge the con-
struction Of more piers. He came before
the board at the request of Mayor
Hylan, and after his charge he quickly
absolved the Hyian administration from
any blame in the matter.
The construction OF more piers and
more generous granting OF power TO pri-
vate enterprise to improve water front
property, he said. would solve the prob
lem. Mr.. Smith also accused Admiral
w. S. Benson. chairman of the United
States Shipping Board. Of diverting ship
ping from the port OF New York
The Mayor seemed a little uneasy
lest Mr.. Smith, who had come before
the board at the Mayors invitation,
might convey the impression that the
Hylan administration had been remiss
toward port questions and brought from
Mr.. Smith the statement that "this ad-
ministration has done more for the port
than all the commissions put together"
Good" said the Mayor. That's just
what | wanted to get on the record"
Mr.. Smiths report was referred to the
committee of the whole.

Orderly Market IL Needed.

"Orderly marketing means so market
ing that Il means a gradual and steady
sale and gradual and steady purchasing.
Now In the spring of 1920 IL became evil
dent that marketing was not proceeding
I'm an orderly way; that large volumes OF
staple agricultural products were being
held back at the points of primary pro-
duction. The excuse was given that the
railroads were unable TO furnish trans

after comforting with the Interstate Com
rnerce Commission. that the railroad sit-
uation was not altogether 30 bad as had
been stated, and that there was In evil
dence n disposition on the part of some
producers to hold their products back
from the market in the hope OF obtaining
higher prices.
"Of course n producer has a perfect
right TO exercise his judgment ~ to
when he shall market n crop. provided
he Is able 70 do so out OF his own re.
sources. But when he lncurs obligations
Mt a bank, and the bank counts upon
the payment OF that obligation at ma
turity, II Is entirely proper for the bank
to exercise legitimate pressure for him
to sell his crop TO liquidate his debts.

Not All Primary Deposits.

$50 that all the funds that the Fed
eral Resevve banks receive from member
banks are not primary deposits, but are
merely a part OF the deposits received
by the member banks, which must be
carried as reserve with the Federal Re-
serve Bank. II Is essential, therefore.
that the invested assets of the Federal
Reserve banks be not only sound but of
a liquid character and II possible of a
self-llquidating character.
I'm the spring of 1920 II became evil
dent that loans which were being car
ried by member banks on collateral
and for speculative purposes had under
gone a marked reduction. but that the
liquidation in the agricultural sections
had been nothing like so great as should
have been the case.
Now agriculture, as you know, Is a
seasonal operation. Loans are needed
at certain seasons of the year to assist
in the planting and production OF the
crops they are needed at other seasons
to market the crops in an orderly way.
And the Federal Reserve Board has al
ways been a strong advocate of orderly
marketing. for It is self evident that II
the great staple crops OF the country are
thrown upon the market over very
short period of time-say a few weeks
the facilities OF the railroads would be
so congested that the ability of the
banks to finance such operations would
be overstrained; that the dumping OF
these crops on the market in such q
short space of time would result In very
low prices to the producer without
necessarily any corresponding benefit &c
the consumer. because they would fall
into the hands of the middeman or the
speculator. who would exact his toll"

Mr.. Harding stated with confidence
and emphasis that the inherent strength
of the Federal Reserve banks generally
has so much improved that there need
be no apprehension of their ability to
care for the banking situation.
In defending the Federal Reserve sys-
tenn against the charges of strangulation
Of business. curtailment of credits and
particularly the discrimination against
agricultural pursuits, Mr.. Harding cited
comparative statistics In which the vol
ume of credits extended for agricultural
purposes through Federal Reserve banks
in 1919 had amounted to s7i9. 900. 900.
and for the first eleven months of 1920
