GENOA May 5.--The conversations
which Mr.. Lloyd George has been
holding with Chancellor Wirth and
DR.. Rathenau will continue to-mor-
row after he has seen Louis Barthou.
The British Premier has received
an urgent message from the head OF
the French delegation. asking him to
see him as soon as possible after the
Paris train arrives tomorrow morn
ing. Meanwhile important confer.
ences will be held at the Villa de AL
bertis between Mr.. Lloyd George and
Konstanty Skirmunt, the Polish Pre-
mier, and Mr.. Lloyd George and Nj
cola Pachitch, the Jugo-Slav Premier.
Camille Barrere. French Ambasss.
dor to Italy, acting chief of the
French delegation, has received a
message from Premier Poincare to
take no further part in negotiations
regarding the Russian memorandum.
He has notified Premier Facta that
France will reserve signature until
the Belgians accept.
More OIL Deal Details.
The Germans, it is said. are not
highly delighted with the results OF
the Lloyd George conversations.
A formal statement issued by the
British delegation. signed by Walter
Samuels, head OF the Shell oil inter-
ests. again denies wholly and in de-
tail that any deal has been concluded
with the Soviet Government for oil.
Aside from these superficial de-
velopments the day has been one OF
suspense for Genoa. Mr.. Lloyd
George is toiling valiantly along lines
of which he is a consummate master
to assure the success Of the Genoa
conference, with or without France
An important reservation should be
made. however. That is that he is
still determined to keep the Entente
solid front as far as Germany is
concerned.

100000. The growth of the bank in
vestments in bonds and other secur-
tiles is further evidence of the rela-
tive abundance Of available funds.
The progressive reduction in redis-
counts reported by the Federal Re-
serve banks is reflected in the returns
from the reporting member banks.
Bills payable and rediscounts with
Federal Reserve banks declined from
$1,000, 100000 to SLOTS, 100000 in the
first seven months of 1921, and from
s65O,OOO 900 to Silt 100000 in the
corresponding period this year.
In contrast with the continued de-
cline in loans, deposits of reporting
member banks, which declined $764,-
100000 in the first seven months OF
1921, increased in the corresponding
months of this year by $1,153,000, 900
the up-turn having begun in Septem.
Der, 1921.
Apart from temporary fluctuations
no halt has been reached in the accu.
mutation of gold by the Federal Re.
serve banks, but the gain in golC
holdings in the first seven month:
of this year was $196, 600, 900, as com
pared with a gain of $472,0 600, 900 il
a similar period last year.
The decline in discounts and in not'
circulation also continues. The re
duction in discounts for the sever
months period sof this year was $713,
100000, as compared with 1890 900,
900 for the same period last year, ant
the total discounts on August 2
amounting to S400 900 900, were les
than a fourth of the amouat of
year ago. MOREOVER; while invest
ments in bonds were reduced by near
ly one-half in the first seven month
of 1921, in the corresponding perio'
this year they have increased b,

FINANCIAL And BUSINESS SURVEY

A prominent feature OF the credit
adjustment is the fact that gener-
ally speaking the recovery in business
activity which has been under way
for some months has not given rise to
new commercial borrowings suffi-
cient to match the liquidation of old
loans, made possible in the main by
improvement 'of industry and trade,
according to a review of the stats
tics of Federal Reserve banks con
tanned in the current issue of the
Guaranty Survey, published by the
Guaranty Trust Company of New
York.
Not only because there is ordinar-
lily about this season of the year an
increase in bank loans fDr purposes
of crop financing, but also because
the cumulative effects of a more or
less general expansion in business
activity might be expected to result
in a n expansion of commercial bor-
rowing, the money markets are be-
ing watched for evidences of an ex-
pansiOn of demand for loanable funds,
the Survey says, but as yet there has
been no general increase in borrow
ings.
1t is worthy of note, nevertheless,
that although the total loans and
discounts of approximately 800 re-
porting member banks continued on
the whole to decline in July, there
was a net increase from July 5 tC
August 2 of $40, 200, 600 in loans and
discounts other than those secured
by the United States government OBJ
legations or by stocks and bonds
There had been an increase of $40,
100000 in these loans during the pre-
ceding four weeks, The decline q
these loans in July was accompanied
by a decline in the banks holdings
of securities other than United State,
government obligations. &
When comparison is made foi
longer periods, it is evident that tota
loans and discounts of reporting mem
Der banks have continued the genera
downward movement which was il
progress Throughout 1921. However
there has been a marked retardatiol
of the rate at which loans and dis
counts declined in the first sevel
months of 1922, as compared with TIA
first eve months of 1921. During
this year, the decline in seven month
was $401 900 900, or approximate,
SO per cent, as compared with a de-
cline of $685. 300, 200, or approx
mately III per cent in the dorre
spending period last year.
Investments of the reporting bank
have been expanding at an increas
ing rate In the first seven month
