B. & M. AGREES

Railroad would agree to a reduction
of its freight rates to the Baltimore
level, counsel for the respondents OF
tanned an admission from James r.
McAnany, assistant general freight
agent of the Boston & Maine, that
in such an event. the New York rates
should also be lowered. He agreed
that both Boston and New York
were at disadvantage as compared
with Philadelphia and Baltimore.
The New York Merchants Asso-
citation was made party to the pro-
ceedings when an intervening petit
ton was filed by James c. Lincoln
over the protest of Henry w. Bike,
representing the Pennsylvania Rail-
road. The latter declared that the
petition extended the scope of the
hearing and was intended to obtain
for New York, the advantage of any
order that might be issued in favor
of Boston.
Mr.. McAnany's statement that
Boston had natural advantage over
all other ports in shipments by rail
and water from Chicago and Liver
pool developed the question of the
extent to which water rates should
figure in the hearing. It was decided
that no testimony would be taken on
ocean rates and this was regarded
as an important point in favor Of the
petitioners case as heretofore ocean
rates have been a factor in deciding
rates to ports on export commodities,
but the afternoon session was given
over almost entirely to the subject
Of ocean freight rates. This resulte
when Examiner Gerry ruled ttat If
there was anything in the history
and operation of differentials in their
relations to ocean freights, that
would help him in reaching his con-
illusions that such testimony was ad-
missable.
F. D. Frieser, special assistant to
the traffic manager of the emergency
feet corporation. testified that the
Shipping Board did not allot bottom 5
to this port because there was not
sufficient export business here to
justify the sending of vessels. 1t was
shown that at present three lines
were sendinf liners to Boston to load
grain and other staples.
Figures then were quoted to show
that out of a total of $50 Shipping
Board vessels allotted to the North
Atlantic trade only two touched at
Boston and that in these cases the
allotment was accidental"
1t was indicated today that the
hearings would probably continue
through this week here and then
might be moved to Washington or
Philadelphia.

BANKERS ON RECORD
AGAINST PRESENT

e American

New York. Oct 4.-The American
Bankers Association, in convention
here, went on record today by vote
of approximately 3 to /, as being op-
posed to branch banking or the es-
tablishment of branch Offices by both
state and national banks in any form.
After the passage of a resolution
expressing this opposition. steps were
taken by bankers from Missouri, 1lli-
nois. Wisconsin. New Jersey and
Connecticut to form an association Of
national and state banks and trust
companies opposed to branch bank
ing. to undertake a campaign for the
passage of a federal statute prohibit
ing national banks from having
branches or more than one office in
any state. Murray Mcleod, vice pres
ident of the Irving Park National
Bank. Chicago. was elected chairman
Of the organization. and committee
composed of three delegates from
each of the As state bankers associa-
tons. will meet in Chicago in the
near future. it was announced, to
plan national campaign.
Messages from President Harding
and Secretary of the Treasury An
drew w. Mellon. were read by Pres
ident Thomas Il. McAdams. In his
letter to the bankers Secretary Mel
, lon wrote that a foundation for an
early and healthful revival of bust
ness had been esta blished through
the response Of the bankers to the
treasury offerings of the short term
| notes issued during the past eighteen
months to retire victory notes and
| other early maturing obligations.
President Harding's message was
plea to the bankers that they 1ead
in recommitting our people to sane
expenditures, to ways of economy
and thrift and to the consideration
of municipal and national problems
in that conscience which builds the
temple of confidence"
| In the election of officers. John H.
| Peuicher, of Milwaukee. was chosen
president; Walter w. Head. of Oma-
| ha, Neb.. first vice president, and
William w. Knox, second vice presi-
dent.
| Frank A. Munsey addressed the
conventions on the problems of the
hour. and said that the operations
Of the Republican and Democratic
parties were being carried on with
small attention to the interests of
the government or the people.
The fight of the two parties over
! the tariff. he said. was carried on to
the shame of the American people.
It is wholly a business question. he
said. and should be treated as such.
Germany can pay her war debts
the Right Honorable Reginald Nc
kenna, former chancellor of the
British exchequer. told the bankers
| but such a payment would only Re
possible if all other demands are post
poned for a period which would per-
nit the sterilization of the mark.
Such postponement should be eX-
tended to all European countries
! with the exception of England, Mr..
Mckenna said.
