Tennis Body Has Important Meet;
 Tourney Dates Set

New York, April 2.-Various recom- mendations connected with the DAVIS cup and national championship play for the coming season were consid- eKed here today at the annual spring meeting of the executive committee of the United States Lawn Tennis as- sociation.
 It was decided to erect grandstaAds capable of seating 14,000 to 16,OO0 ST rectators for the Davis cup challenge round to be played at Forest Hill, N r.. September 2. and 5. This will be the largest tennis arena ever built, ex- ceeding by several thousand seats the stands erected at Wimbledon, England and Sydney and Auckland, australasia.
 It was voted. to transfer the national junior and boys championships from the Philadelphia national singles tournament to the national doubles matches to be played on the Longwood Cricket club courts, Boston, beginning August 23. This change was made to avoid holding the junior events at a date when majority of the boys who would normally enter might be obliged to return to school before the tournament could be completed.
 The committee also adopted res olution favoring repeal of the govern ment tax of 10 per cent collected upon tennis and other sporting goods as be- ing detrimental to the development of amateur pastimes and recreations. The schedule of more important dates for the seasons play was ap- lproved as follows:
 June 10-Merion Cricket club, Phila- delphia, intercity matches for Church cup with teams from New York. Boston and Philadelphia; Richmonl, Va, in tercity matches for teams from Balti- more, Washington, Norfolk and Rich mond for E. D. Hotchkiss Jr., cup. a new trophy

DENY ACCUSATIONS
Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank
 Answers Charges of State Banks
By Associated Press

Washington, April 2.-Counsel for the federal reserve bank of Atlanta, in a brief filed today with the supreme court denied the accusations made by the American Bank and Trust company, and more than a score of other Georgia banks that it had planned a deliberate campaign to force them into the federal reserve system, or to accept par col lection of checks.
 The federal reserve law specifically provides the brief said that Nno such charges as those ordinarily made for check collection shall be made agains. federal reserve banks and that the At lanta institution, therefore, was proceed ing in the only legal manner left to it.
 Under the circumstances officials ot the Atlanta reserve bank insisted ''the orly methods open for collection would be those complained of in the plaintiff 5 bill.' These were alleged to include the holding back of checks on a small bank until a very large sum had accumulated and then insisting on immediate cash payment, and mailing of such checks to special agent for cash collection.
 The Georgia banks deelared that these methods inevitably would ruin a small bank.
