Meyer Decries Effort to
Discredit Reserve Banks

WASHINGTON. Dec. 25.-The prae-
tieo OF some banks In advertising thaI
they are neither members OF the red
erai Reserve System nor do they use
its redlseounting facilities, is criticized
as injurious TO the public interests oy
Eugene Meyer. managing. director OF
the War Finance Corporation IN let-
ter 20 ]. II. Pulieher, president OF the
American Bankers Association, which
was made public tonight.
Mr.. Meyer urged that the bankers
association take promps steps to stop
the practice.
"Sueh banks his letter says, ARE by
no means in all cases the strongest
banks, although they seek TO increase
their standing and reputation by such
statements. II Is even more true that
such banks are by no means the banks
which are serving the best interests Of
the people Of their territory. Espe-
eially is this true in the agricultural
districts.
"Sueh statements as I refer 20 tend
10 impair and diminish the usefulness
Of the Federal Reserve System, estab-
lished by the people Of the United
States TO serve as an elastic banking
and currency system for the benefit OF
all the people. II would appear that
the American Bankers Association
should take prompt action with n view
TO stopping the practice Of making
statements injurious to the public in
terests."

the collateral back OF American Telephone
and Telegraph collateral ~, 1872. and lnelf
ranking as a public utility bond7-A. Z. 7.
Answer-Colorado & Southern re-
funding and extension AIS are a sound
railroad investment, although a step
removed from the gilt-edge class. The
S28,e7S,900 outstanding is secured by
a general lien on all the property Of
the company, tentatively valued at
something like S1i2,0O0,00O, subject to
Sl9.l00,000 Of prior liens. They are
additionally secured by a first col
lateral lien on securities OF t25, ,l20, 900
par value. On the basis Of earnings
for the first nine months Of 1922 earn
ings for the full year will be at the rate
Of more than AZ per cent on the prop
erty valuation. American Telephone

Answer-There are just two securi-
ties on your list that call for criticism.
Won undoubtedly know something OF
the situation In St. Paul. That sys-
ten undertook a program OF vast ox-
mansion, extending it's lines TO the Pa
eiAc Coast, and up 20 the present the
additional traffic resulting from that
extension has not produced sufieient
revenue 70 carry the added burden OF
unded debt. At the present time the
company Is not earning its hxeo
charges. The crisis will come IN
1925, when the issue Of which you hold
$4,000 must be retired. Unless the
company is able 20 show vast lmproy.e. ,..
ment In earning power during the
NEXT two years Il may experience con
Siderable difieulty in meeting that OBJ
iIgntIon. For that reason we feel that
vour position would bo sounder with
out The ST. Paul bond. The other
ls,ue meritinR comment is the Brazil
3 ner cent. bond. Owing TO tho past
record OF the Brazilian government,
mis- bond ranks In the second grade OF
foreign bonds.
