THINKS SYSTEM SPLENDID
Leader Of Board Assumes Responsible
Ity For Having Circulated Glass
Speech--Declares 1t Set
Forth tacts.

Washington.-Gov Harding OF the
federal reserve board in letter sent
to the senate, struck back at senate
rial criticism of the board and its
policy.
Assuming complete responsibility
for recommending circulation by fed
eral reserve banks of speech by SEN
ator Glass, democrat, Virginia. defend
ing the board, Gov. Harding declared
that charges made against the board
were misleading and untrue"
Without mentioning by name Sena-
tor Heflin, democrat, Alabama, who
has criticised the board frequently,
Gov. Harding said that some of the
senate charges "would have been re-
sented as libelous" but for the consti-
tutional immunity of senators in de-
bate.
Gov Harding's letter written in re-
sponse to resolution by Senator Hef-
lin regarding circulation of Senator
Glass speech was accompanied by let
ters from the Philadelphia, Richmond
and st. Louis reserve banks stating
that they had circulated, respectively,
1000 copies. 10000 and $4,000 copies
of Senator Glass speech.
In his letter Gov. Harding said that
on January Is he received letter to
the governors OF all reserve banks stat
Ing
Think Senator Glass speech de-
Tending federal reserve system should
be widely and promptly circulated
"The federal reserve board" Gov.
Harding's letter to the senate contin-
ued, assumes responsibility for com
mending this speech to the federal re-
serve banks for circulation.
Neither the board nor the federal
reserve banks regarded the speech as
being an attack upon any senator and
were not interested in it from that
point of view. This speech was and
is regarded by the board as a fair
presentation of facts. 1t was COM
mended to the banks for circulation
because it was answer made in the
senate to charges which had been
made on the floor of the senate. 1t
is a clear exposition of the policies,
functions and operations of the federal
reserve system. durng a critical period
and is an important contribution to
current economic discussion"
Asserting that banking business
rests peculiarly upon the foundation
Of public confidence, Gov. Harding de-
clared that the board and each bank
as custodian of the nations finances
had the right and the duty to take
necessary steps to prevent undermin-
Ing Of public confidence.
Those charged with the admins
tration of a bank continued Gov,
Harding's letter. "have the right and
are impressed with the duty of using
all legitimate means, when necessary
to protect it's good name and to pre-.
vent any impairment of public confl-
dence."
