BANKING BOARD LIFTS RE-
STRICTlON ON ACCEPTANCES

The Federal Reserve Board, il is
understood, have removed restric-
tions upon the dealing in bills Of
acceptance oy banks 10 enable them
10 accept bills in any amount up to
10 per cent Of their capital stock
without presentation Of the docu-
mcntary evidence Of the transac-
ton. According 10 high officials,
the action Of the board is con-
structive step which should enable
American interests 90 maintain their
footing on financing Of information
al trade upon equal terms with for
cign bankers.
Heretofore, u was explained, the
Federal Reserve Board has required
banks under It's jurisdiction 10 de-
mand the document covering the
shipment Of goods before accepting
bill drawn for the financing Of
the transaction.
London banks, IL was said, were
no, bound by such restrictions. As
a result, an exporter shipping from
some port such as Buenos Aires TO
destination IN France or Germany
could obtain acceptance Of his bill
by cable from London without loss
Of time. while to obtain the accept
ance in New York would necessitate
mailing the documents covering the
transaction.
The board. officials declared. by
removing this restriction, up to 10
per cent Of a banks capital, had
made IL possible for American banks
TO compete with London and other
European financial centers.
