AIDS IN BANKING
PRACTICE SOUGHT
Glass Bill Designed to Pro-
vide Additional Safety for
u. S. Institutions.
BY CHAS. p. SHAEFFER.
Associated Press Financial Writer.


Many amendments to the Federal
Reserve and national bank acts are con-
tanned In the bill introduced by Senator
Glass which seeks to provide greater
safety in the operation of the two sys-
TENS.
Proponents of the measure Of both
main political parties believe the bill
would accomplish the ultimate in re-
viving and maintaining confidence in
banking circles as well as effectually
curb that portion Of speculative move
ments heretofore made possible througl!
credit granted by Federal Reserve and
member banks.
High lights of the measure appear
directed at outstanding weaknesses un-
covered in the system during the latest
speculative era which was arrested with
the stock market crash that set in IT.
the late months Of 1929
Features of the bill follow:
Member banks would be restrained
in borrowing for 15-day periods on their
direct promiSsOry notes with United
States bonds as security from securing
from central banks more than a limited
percentage Of capital and surplus if and
when they are making loans to brokers
National banks would not be per-
mitted to maintain branches unless
they have a paid-in and unimpaired
capitalization Of Sl,000,00O
The Secretary Of the Treasury would
be removed from a seat on the Federal
Reserve Board.
An organization would be set up to
supervise open market operations Of
the individual banks, and no central
institution could conduct negotiations
with foreign bankers without first OBJ
tanning permission of the Federal Re-
serve Board. This provision, it is said
was included primarily to curtail the
activities of the Federal Reserve Bank
of New York which due to its initia-
tive and strategic position has been
considered in some circles as eXempIi-
fylng the policy Of the system as a
whole
A permanent liquidating corporation
would be created to purchase and liuui-
date assets of banks which have been
ordered closed by the controller of the
currency as well as member banks
which have been closed by State author
tiles.

Little Liquidation.

NEW YORK, January 90 tSpeciaD -
What is regarded by traders as the most
satisfactory feature of the stock market
Is the absence of liquidation. 1t has
not been seriously affected by the un-
favorable incidents recently, in the way
Of reduced dividends, slow wholesale
and retail trade and the irritating delay
IN reaching an agreement on the rail-
way wage question.
1t is known that Wall Street is about
100 per cent liquidated- is. Stock
Exchange houses are borrowing little or
nothing and could probably pay off
their total Indebtedness and show a
substantial surplus. There are drib-
let's of stock coming into the mar
ket day by day, representing the selling
out Of collateral held by banks. This
is readily absorbed in the odd-lot
purchases for investment that are con-
stantly taking place. Whether liquida-
ton could be resumed if the market
average dropped below that of January
5 is a debatable question. This average
is now about points above the low Of

There has been a decided reversal of

thoroughly liquidated than any other

There will be further rail dividend
reductions, the street believes, but as
practically all lines have either stopped

MANAGED CURRENCY"

LONDON. January 3O.-A managed

chairman of the Midland Bank. in an
address at the annual meeting of the
banks stockholders.
The immediate choice before this
country is nescapable," he said.
Either we must have Soundly man
aged gold standard which coud cnly
be secured by Well-ordered international
action, or we must abandon gold
definitely and rely on managed stand
ard, without any metallic basis at all
Mr. McKenna said the events since
England abandoned gold proved to him
that management was possible and he
felt the gold standard itself is mis-
taken ideal

government for a general tariff will GER

will even provide a surplus which might
be used advantageously for relief of the
present uneconomic burden and excess

Exempt List.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 29-An un-
expected boon has come to the sup
port of State and municipal bonds in
the public market.
spokesman for leading banks
which each year make large purchases
of these taX-exempt securities said that
new Treasury ruling, just made pub
lie, should benefit municipal bonds in
general
The United States Treasury Depart
ment announced an amendment to its
regulations which liberalizes the IRON
clad provisions which had been set up
to safeguard the collateral which banks
in the past rendered as security against
deposit Of postal savings and other
public moneys
Under the new ruling, approved bonds
or notes OF municipalities within the
United States will be eligible provided
they are classified in one of the three
highest grades by a recognized invest
ment service organization regularly en-
gagged in the business of rating or
grading bonds"
Until this amendment had been put
into effect only municipal bonds which
sold on a basis to yield less than per
cent were eligible
The change was made, bankers said,
because of the continued decline of Sc
curity prices. Comparatively few mu-
n1cipal bonds in the present market
are selling on a basis to yield less than
s per cent. Among the numerous cities
and States whose obligations are selling
on the former border line basis of S
per cent yield are New York City, De-
trolt Tennessee, Louisiana, Mississippi,
Alabama and Arkansas.
With postal savings accounts now at
record high figure, it is expected that
considerable new buying may develop
IN taX-eXempt securities which will fail
short Of meeting the former 6 per cent
yield provision, but are acceptable
under the new ruling.
