 The SEQ OOO,OO0 pool is destined to cover the entire west and will be pro portioned where it is most needed and will do the most good, announcement from Chicago said.

 Operation of the bankers pool will be . rediscounting operation, bank officials here said yesterday, and must, of necessity, follow the require lc cnts of rediscounting through the federal reserve banks.
 Two what extent Arizona stock men will benefit from the pool will depend entirely upon the attitude of bankers,' F. E.. Schneider. secretary of the Arizona Cattle Growers asso- citation said yesterday. ''The m oney is in Chicago to be had, and it is now ! matter of going after it"
 "A general recognition of Arizona conditions will be essential to bring full share of the pool to the state,' he continued. "The bankers them selves can do much toward that end. If the banks go after the money with heart and soul, then stockmen of the state can look forward to full par ticipation in the benefits accruing from the operation of the pool"
 Ground work for operation of the pool in Arizona was laid by Charles B. Walker of Tucson in a recent east. ern trip, it is stated. The plan will be furthered by H. J. McClung, presf dent of the Phoenix National s,ank who is planning trip to Chicago in behalf of Arizona stockmen. There is other evidences, MT.
