MT. Preston recommended in his address the formation of a world wide association of banks which would promote fuller comprehen- sion of ''the difficulties which be- set every country and would make for more cordial and sympathetic understanding" among the nations.
 ''If the United States is to main- tain it's financial and industrial supremacy it must continue to lend, invest and sell abroad" he said. Foreign business will be more important in the future than in the past. We are so closely related to other countries that what effects one section of the world affects all"
 The president suggested that the American Bankers Association take the initiative in calling such a world conference of banking representatives.
