BANKERS ASK QUIZ
ON BROKER LOANS
Federal Reserve Authorities
Requested to Act by Dele
gates to Session.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, october 4.-Hav-
ing voiced their faith in the soundness
of the credit situation and recommend
ed a scientific investigation OF the
brokers' loans problems by the Federal
Reserve authorities. delegates were on
their way home today after winding up
the annual convention of the American
Bankers Association.
Hope was expressed that the reSolu-
ton passed Just before adjournment, urg-
ing Federal Reserve system and STOCK
exchange heads to study brokers' loans
in an effort to stabilize the national
credit situation, might stave OH con-
gressional investigation.
Many and divergent views on the
relative merits of branch and group
banking as distinguished from unit
banking came out of the gathering. The
convention revealed that deep feeling
exists among bankers over the abSorp-
ton of many banks by huge branching
systems.
Unit Bank Defended.
During the last session unit bankers
had their say. George w. Dawson OF
New York declared the unit bank, I'M
der which America had grown to be the
greatest industrial nation OF history,
was still the best adapted to continu-
ance of that prosperity.
Max B. Nahm of Bowling Green, KY,
attributed failure of banks to failure
of surrounding areas, rather than to
weakness in the system. He believed
the banks that have failed In the last
decade-more than 5,000-would have
failed whether under State or national
charter, or whether they were members
of branch systems or units banks.
Oveloans Charged.
Other matters closely noted by the
bankers and throughout American
financial circles included the declaration
by retiring President c. B. HaZlewood
of Chicago that many banks were over
loaned on securities and in a top-heavy
position, the statement by Controller Of
the Currency j. w. Pole, regarded as
the voice of the Hoover administration,
that branch banking privileges should
be extended to national banks, and the
Endorsement of the Federal Farm Board
as a stabilizing fundamentally for ag-
riculture
F. N. Shepperd of New York was re-
elected executive manager. T. M. Patton,
also of New York, general counsel, and
Grant McPherrin, Des MoineS, IoWS,

utive council meeting.

day the principal city, Mathew Town,
has IL officials and is called "the City
Of Yesterday" The town is not unlike
q deserted mining camp in the far
West.
Wonderful streets. broad and level,
stretch in four directions, but the

now abandoned. Most Of the buildings
are roofiess, doors and windows cape

a large congregation, now stands with
out doors or windows. The Church of

AL6I OF Me TIGERS HOPES
"ARE IN MS Rl6HT ARM"

The dopesters picking the Detroit
baseball club as the dark horse in
the coming American league PEN
nant chase are taking into consider
alton the right arm OF. George Uhle.
If Uhle can regain the form of
two years ago, the already strength
ened Tigers should be in nice spot
to make strong bid against the
Yankees and Athletics.
Of course, the smart dopesters
are not altogether overlooking the
st. Louis Browns and one or two
other clubs that may go crazy and
do what the Brownies did last year.
Uhle, who came to Detroit from
Cleveland in exchange for Jackie
Tavener and Ken Holloway. has
been taking treatments for his arm
under a bright California sun and is
reported eager for the gun.
That he has outlived his useful
ness at Cleveland is generally ac-
cepted. Quite often, however, an
athlete transplanted into new pas
lures enjoys surprising reversal

Harris. manager OF the Bengals.
Although regarded as one Of tho
leading pitchers of tho American
league for the last decade, thle has
been somewhat of an in-and-outer.
A season or two of great work
would usually be followed by one
in which he would report to the
shower room at promptly 3:l5

sent to the mound.
In 1926. he had the best year of
his career. coming within an acc of

The following summer he eX-
perienced arm trouble and was of
little use. Last year he started
with rush faltcred early and
found himself out of condition and

Should George regain his stride at
Detroit, it will be a splendid oppor-
