WHY BANKS DODGE
FEDERAL RESERVE
Banker Gives Conyress COM
mittee Six ReasOns-Lauds
and Flags System.

Speaking for a committee rcprc-
senting the American Bankers Asso-
ciation, Waldo Newcomer, president
of the National Exchange Bank OF
Baltimore, Md, today gave the joint
cngressional committee six reasons
which prevent state banks and trust
companies from coming into the fed
era1 reserve system. He listed these
reasons as Inadequate return on the
stock member banks are required To
take in the federal reserve system,
less of interest on reserve balances.
lack of eligible paper, the require
ments for statements and other for
malities, the sufficiency of accommo-
dations obtained by non-membeI'
banks from their correspondents and
finally their resentment against the
apparent attempts to force them into
the system.
He. declared that the federal re-
serve system was Fundamentally
sound, but opposed the establishment
Of agencies or branches in Cuba OF
other foreign countries. He pro
tested against what he termed class
discrimination in the selection of tn.
personnel of the Federal Reserve
Board and insisted that there should
he continuity in the membership Of
that board with the President per-
mitted to reappoint members without
subjecting them to confirmation by
the Senate. This would, he said, have
the effect of protecting members Of
the board from the resentment and
opposition of senator's. He also
would have the board appoint its
governor instead of having that Off
Ger selected by the President.
A. great deal could be accomplished
in removing the opposition of the small
banks to membership in the system.
he said, should the government guar
antee per cent interest on the stock
of the federal reserve system ito which
members are required to subscribe.
Large national banks had left tht.
system, he stated, to meet the COM
petition of state banks and not because
of opposition to anything special in the
reouirements of the system. He was
opposed. he said. to holding out any
inducemerit to small banks to bring
them into the system unless the in
ducements were sufficient TO bring all
in in body.
He criticized recent acts of Con
gress which had, he said. extended spe-
ciaI credit to farmers which were IN
the nature of furnishing them capita,
on which to operate.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. October "a more
cheefful feeling prevailed in tpday's
bond market. with prices Arm around
Mondays closing. levels There was
also e. noticeable increase in inquiry
for good underlying unlisted securi-
ties.
Buyers were particular as to quail
ity, but when their ideas on this score
were met 1t was not difficult to sell
bonds. The same condition was said
to prevail in the market for new Of
ferings. The syndicate margin of
profit on some Of the recently offered
bonds Of the better grade was very
narrow
Investment bankers are anxious
just now for business Of this kind
all of which argues for a good mar
ket for the best bonds listed and un-
listed, old and new.
b. & o. Issues Firm.
In today's market Baltimore and
Ohio obligations were especially firm
with the most attention paid to the
refunding 5s. There was substan-
tial advance also in Baltimore and
Ohio, Toledo-Cincinnati division As
bringing the price up above the high
of the year. There Is reason to be-
lieve that the matter of refunding the
Baltimore and Ohio maturitles of 1926
is already under consideration.
Southern Railway As and 611s sold
around recent quotations notwith-
standing the very favorable outlook
of the road and the speculation in
the stock based on hopes of a divi-
dend. In the Il. & o. case the rise
in the bonds followed that in the
stock. Both the Southern Railway
issues at present prices yield more
than 6h per cent. Among the more
speculative issues Seaboard Air Line
adjustments paused in he upward
movement SO pronounced Monday.
Missouri Pacific and ST.. Paul bonds
continued heavy.
Industrials Active.
There were several features of in
terest among the industrials. includ-
ing the making Of a new low record
for Ajax Rubber Ss. while Goodrich
6lss were advancing fractionally.
Hershey Chocolate IS sold at SO.
American Writing Paper 6s were
lower, while the sugar bonds, espe-
cially the Punta Allegro Sugar rs. ad-
vanced. The fractions were not much
changed
In the high-grade class prices were
steady, with the tendency to advance
Pacific first As and Atchison general is.
Easy Mone- Predicted.
Predictions Of long period of easy
money were heard today. United
States government loans were un-
changed to higher.
Trading in the foreign group was
very slow. The new Republic Of SAL
