FEDERAL RESERVE
is URGED TO ACT
Purchase of u. S. Securities on Mar
ket Urged as Way to Ease Credit
and Revive Trade.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. october THE rec
ommendation that the Federal Reserve
system expand credit at this time
through open-market purchases of &C
ceptances and Government securities
was made yesterday by two economists,
Prof. James Harvey Rogers of Yale and
DR.. Lionel D. Edie, former professor
of finance at the University of Chicago.
Prof. Rogers said the results Of such
a policy would be an increase in bank
reserves with continued ease in money
rates; large purchases of bonds by
banks, thus strengthening the invest
ment market: an increase in long-term
financing. large expenditures for wages
and materials larger demands for con-
sumers' goods and a halt to the general
price decline
DR.. Edie said that although currency
boarding was going on at the rate OF
between 5000 900, 900 and 100000, 900
a month 1t was not too late to reverse
the situation.
"The moment the Federal Reserve
gives evidence that 1t is going to make
the SIS, 900 900, 900 of gold in this coun-
try do the work it is intended to do.
the short interest in commodities and
securities the world over will have to
run to shelter"
The suggested open-market opera
lions of the Reserve system, he said,
does not constitute imitation.
1T is merely putting stop to ca
tastrophic deflation. 1t is merely turn
ing the ship around before it hits the
rocks of disaster"

At PHILADELPHIA
Public Confidence Exhorted
to Stop Withdrawals
From Banks.

PHILADEL PHIA. October Public
confidence in Philadelphia financial
institutions was eXhorted last night by
outstanding business and industrial
leaders who condemned, through news
papers and the radio, panicky with
drawals of savings deposits and
boarding.
In statement signed by % of the
city's leaders, many of them nationally
known, citizens were urged not to with
draw their savings from banks because
of vague rumors" arising from several
recent bank suspensions.
George w. Norris, governor of the
Federal Reserve Beard Of Philadelphia,
declared in a radio address that per-
sons who take money out of banks for
the purpose of boarding it inflict
terrible injury" on themselves and add
to the present depression.
Outstanding among the signers of
the statement were w. w. Atterbury,
president of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road: Thomas S. Gates. president of
the University of Pennsylvania: Cardi-

POOL TO Be READY
BY END OF WEEK
New York Bankers Expect to
Submit $500, 100000
Plan at Once.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, October Leading
New York bankers who were working
today on details of the $500, 900 900
credit corporation proposed by President
Hoover for the relief of banks outside
the Federal Reserve System indicated
they expected to have a working plan
ready by the end of the week.
With the plan still SO new, bankers
were reluctant to discuss details. It
was assumed, however that the cor
poration would extend loans on COL
lateral to non-member banks which had
been placed in embarrassing or serious
situations by the ineligibility of assets
for rediscount at the Federal Reserve
banks.
The progress of the steps involved in
the formation of the corporation. it was
indicated. would not be revealed until
complete,
Hope for Agreement.
Wall Street bankers regarded Presi-
dent H.,overs reference to the inter-
national debt situation IS particularly
constructive but pointed out that i'm
mediate attention should be concentrat-
ed on domestic affairs to break the
continuity of def1ation.
Several who discussed the matter in
formally said that permanent restora-
ton prosperity would require the
Stabi'E alton of conditions in Great
BrltsA and Germany. which have been
impo.Nlnt customers for American
goods. They were hopeful that the visit
OF Premier Laval to this country would
result in an understanding between
France and the United States thu
worlds two strongest countries finan-
ciQllV ac IN cfr,,o
Unofficial estimates of the volur.> of
frozen credits now extant in the .;oun-
try run as high as 81. 900 900 .OOL.
1t was pointed out by bankers that
the corporation could not be regarded
as free-for- all grab bag from which
all ailing banks could draw help. The
belief in Wall Street was that all appli-
cations for loans would be considered
on their merits.
Personnel Undecided.
Nevertheless, it was felt that the
establishment of so substantial an in
stitution would do much toward restor-
ing confidence both among banks and
their depoSitors, even though it could
not be expected to put an immediate
stop to all banking troubles.
The fact that prominent banks were
working on the plan precluded the pos
sibility that a Government institution,
patterned on the lines of the War
Finance Corporation, would be formed.
The personnel of the corporations
management. it was understood had
not been decided on, although it was
assumed that 1t would include some Of
the bankers who discussed the plan
with President Hoover in recent con-
ferences.
These men included Charles E.
Mitchell. chairman of the National City
Bank; Thomas w. Lamont of J. P.
Morgan 4, Co.. George Whitney. also
OF the Morgan firm Albert H. Wiggin.
chairman Of the Chase National Bank S
governing board, and William c. Potter

RUMOR THAT HOOVER
FAVORS NEW DEBT
HOLIDAY STlRS LAVAL
Continued Prom First Page.)

Continued Prom First Page)
Edges denial, came out today with the
erroneous story, under blaring head
lines. and caused much uneaSiness -
uniformed circles.
Bankers who conferred with Mr..
Hoover Sunday are blamed here for~cir-
culation of the false report. Whether
they were genuinely misled or whether
they hoped to bring pressure on the
President to modify his scheme, &C
cording to their desire for a further
moratorium, nobody can say. It was
said, however, that President Hoover
was exceedingly annoyed at their
breach of etiquette in discussing his
supposed intention.
This incident, quite naturally, has
strengthened Premier Laval in his de-
termination not to be rushed into an
agreement on measures which might
imperil Frances financial situation.
With GerWany's critical financial con-
dition nov complicated by political
confusion, as a result of the shake-up
of Chancellor BrueningS cabinet, the
French government is more than ever
convinced that the nation enjoying
relative stability must avoid risking 1t
to save others.
Lord Reading. British foreign min
lister, is bearing this same language
today in his conversations with Pre-
mier Laval, Foreign Minister BRAND
and Finance Minister Flandin. French
opinion is that the British financial
situations is worse than the British real
ize, and, Furthermore, that the gen.
eral election in Britain on October 81
may reserve an unpleasant surprise for
those who count too optimistically on
the countrys supporting the present
National Coalition.
Consequently. the French are greet
ing Lord Reading with great reserve,
believing it Is none too certain that he
will not be replaced a month hence
by another Labor minister.
1t is believed, indeed, that the I'M
certainties of the British elections
which occur the very day that M.
Laval embarks for his homeward jour-
ney after his American visit, will make
it practically impossible to reach any
definite conclusions of major import
ance touching world finance in the
Washington conversations.
Should Labor again return as the
strongest party in the House of Com
mons, 1t certainly will be regarded IS
a complete reputation by the British
electorate CT the national, governments
policy.
Imitation" Is the word most used
by French financial experts to describe
President Hoover's new scheme for
mobilizing credits in the United States
1t Is freely predicted that American
prices will rise and some doubts are
expressed as to whether heavy god ex-
ports will not be necessary if the dol
lars parity is to be maintained.

LONDON, October Great Britain
plunged into turbulent general cleo
ton campaign today with the most
contradictory lineup of issues and can
didates in generation.
Thirty million men and women vot-
ers are being asked to determine on
October 81 the life or death of a gov
eminent which is led by Socialist
prime minister without a party sup
ported by coalition of Conservatives
and Liberals who have been thrown to-
gether by political fate and attacked
by united Labor party which VOWS
its extinction.
Wants Free Hand.
Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald
has announced he will run from his
present constituency of Seaham Harbor,
which already has rejected him. on
platform of what he describes as
free hand in dealing with the nations
problems. Conservative and Liberal
leaders have indicated they will give
him an oper field by not nominating
candidates ':om that district
Stanley baldwin. Conservative leader,
received a vote of confidence from his
followers last night. but it was not clear
whether they were expressing faith in
his leadership or in his protective
tariff policy. He was known to be OPP
posed by the empire free trade group
of Lord Beaverbrook.
David Lloyd George. ailing Liberal
chieftain. continued his antagonism to-
ward the election and witnessed his
party slowly drifting away from him
toward a protect!onist standard. His
leadership was being divided between
Sir Herbert Samuel, cabinet representa-
tive, who has ben criticizd by his small
group because of indecision. and Sir
John Simon. who is ralying another
faction behind strong tariff banner.
Henderson Laborites United.
Arthur Henderson's Labor cohorts APP
peared to be the most firmly united,
drawing inspirs ton from their bitter
ness toward their former leader and
standing squarely on a platform of OPP
position to the governments economy
measures and public control of the
banking system.
Prospects were that candidates would
be advanced by at least six clean-cut
groups-Conservativ Laborites, Lib
erals. National Liberals. National La
borites and the new" party Of Sir
Oswald Mosley-none knowing exactly
what they are fighting for and all dedi-
Gated to the support or defeat Of a
government which was formed only for
an emergency and has no permanent
progl am.
The situation may be cleared up to-
night when Mr. Macdonald goes on the
all to appeal to the people directly for
his doctors mandate" and to explain
in what manner he hopes to mold a
divergent new Parliament into a har-
monious body which will carry out his
ideas-if he is reelected.
