Charges that the American Bank
ers' Association appears to be using
its influence over the United States
Chamber of Commerce, and the in
dustrial trusts OF the country, link
ing them up to defeat the soldier
bonus, were made by the Senator.
In his statement attacking the
banks he said that since Governor
Harding, OF the Federal Reserve
Board. and Benjamin Strong, gov
ernor of the First Federal Reserve
Bank, admitted before the joint
committee Of Congress on Agricul-
ture Emergency that the banks of
the Federal Reserve system were
corporations organized for private
gain and not Government Institu-
tons, It leaves their excess profits
wide open to attacks by Congress.
There certainly should be- some
way devised to keep the banks from
getting away with the billions they
have plundered from the people dur
ing the World War, and more than
ever since we realize the terrible
poverty and suffering of the people
as q result Of this plundering," he
declared. "As the money magnates
with their affiliated banks have
made practically all the profits out
Of the war, they should be made to
pay the bonus to the soldiers who
won the war. An 80 per cent
excess profits tax applied to the
Increased assets, capital stock. sur

by a joint statement of President l..
Lewis, of the miners and b. NJ. Jew
ell, head of the rail unions, issued last
night after the first formal discus
