Third Congress Resolution
Asks if Conference With Bank
of England Governor Held.

BY the Associated Press.
Inquiry into whether the Federal Re-
serve Board conferred with the gov-
ernor of the Bank of England during
this month before issuing the warning
against stock speculation was proposed
today in resolution introduced by
Representative Black, Democrat, of
New York
Blacks resolution was the third to
be introduced since the boards state
ment was issued Wednesday night.
Thursday, stocks on the New York Ex-
change plunged downward. Both Black
and Senator Heflin, Democrat. Alabama,
introduced resolutions yesterday de-
signed to bring explanations from the
board.
The Senate again deferred action to-
day on the Hefiin resolution which
would call upon the board to submit a
recommendation for legislation to cure
the speculative evils of which it COM
planned.
InfOrmat ton Sought.
The Black resolution of today would
direct the board to inform the House
along these lines:
did the Federal Reserve Board confer
with Mr. Montagu Norman, governor of
the Bank Of England, during the month
of February, 1929?
Were such conferences If any,
solicited by Montagu Norman or by the
Federal Reserve Board?
What was the subject matter of such
conferences, and what agreement. If any,
was entered into by the Federal Reserve
Board and Montagu Norman. and what
was said at such conference?
Were notes made of such confer
enceS, and II SO, what were they?
did the Federal Reserve Board con-
fer with any individuals other than
Montagu Norman prior to and concern
ing the public statement issued by the
Federal Reserve Board on February Z,
1929, and what was said at such confer
ences, If any?"
Glass Makes Explanation.
When the subject of the boards state
ment came before the Senate today
Senator Glass of Virginia, former DEM
ocratic Secretary of the Treasury, called
attention to a resolution pending since
last May which would ask the board to
do what it did this week in admonishing
against further expansion of loans for
speculative purposes. The Virginian said
this was just about the course the board
had followed. He and Senator Hefiin
agreed to put the question over until
Monday
MY resolution deals with the worst
gambling scheme in half century"
Hefiin declared. 1T is so bad that the
Federal Reserve Board felt called upon
to ask the help of bankers In stopping
it."
