NEVADA BANK
MORATORIUM
NOT HANDICAP
Business Reported Booming
Despite Closing OF Many Fl
nancial Institutions.
REPORT MUCH SPENDING
Police Station Acting As CASH
Ter And Gambling Shows
Healthy Activity.
BY GEORGE d. CRISSEY
United Press Staff Correspondent

RENO, New, Nov. 2. -Reno's
merchants and bartenders, who
discovered an unexpected business
boom in what started out to be a
panic, opened shop today eager to
find out what would happen next.
In the first 24-hours of two
week banking holiday" that saw
most of the financial institutions in
the state closed, economic laws
were turned topsy-turvy, spending
was on scale unequalled in re-
cent months, and more big, round
silver dollars we're floating from
hand to hand than in months.
The police station was doing
the biggest banking business in
town. Dice ratified with new vigor
and roulette wheels whirled and
spun necessarily as, gambling picked
up.
This tradesmen and divorce
lawyers murmured sadly to them
selves at the first shock of the
moratorium, sis going to be awful
All the money is locked up. Well
| be taken in COWS on hoof for
| canned peaches, and chicken for
| divorce DEGREES"
Alas for all laws of economics
but luckily for business, the popu-
lace, like the banks, declared
holiday-but it was a buying holi-
day, spending spree. Never, in
recent months, has business been
so good.
The divorce business, one Of
Reno's most flourishing indus
! tries" went on as usual. Fifteen
suits were filed yesterday, attor-
neys paying court fees in cash in
each instance.
Big Sum On Hand
The First National was the only
bank in the city to remain open.
II stacked up $3,OoOO00 in cash.
"Come and get it," invited Pres
! ident Richard Kirnan.
Come again tomorrow" he urged
at closing time.
Others, whose quiet Withdrawals
| in recent weeks was in part re-
sponsible for the moratorium" al
so found themselves with cash in
their pockets, or hidden in their
sugar-bowls.
The gambling halls had their
| thousands of dollars kept ever
ready to pay off winning streaks.
There was at least $17,000,000
locked up in the closed banks. But
there was S3,OO0,oOo more in the
First National, and thousands on
thousands in pocketS of citizens
All the cash, SO suddenly releas-
ed from strongholds, began to
rush into circulation.

M|LLS-CLASS
HOLD DEBATE
Treasury Secretary Replies To
Democrat Who Once Held
Same Position.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2. U.P)-
Financial policies of the admins
Il ation were defended as paving
the way for economic recovery and
assailed as converting the country
into a "a national pawnshop" in
speeches here last night by Sec
Rotary of Treasury Mills and Sem
ator Glass (Dem.) Virginia, former
holder of the same cabinet posi-
ton.
Mills address was in rebuttal to
that of Glass delivered just prev
iously. The secretary's decision to
make prompt reply to one of the
most scathing indictments of the
campaign caused Glass to conclude
his speech with a charge that Mills
had obtained unethically copy of
his manuscript in advance. Mills
answer was that it was well
known" that copies of opposition
speeches "find their way" into the
rival camp.
Senator Glass, co-author of the
federal reserve act and secretary
of treasury under Woodrow Wilson,
opened his attack with an accusa-
ton that President Hoover had
made campaign statements flag
rantly contrary to the facts that
he might magnify his own alleged
achievements in correcting situa-
tons and saving the country"
He sharply criticized economic
and financial policies of recent Re-
publican administrations, denied
the gold standard was at one time
seriously endangered as the Presi-
dent asserted in his Des Moines
speech and defended the congress
sional record of Democrats on I'M
employment relief and financial
legislation.
Mills replied with a declaration
that if President Hoover is per-
mitted to carry on the admins
tration's economic program 'recov-
cry may soon be within our reach
and we may not have to wait much
longer for the dawn of the day to
which we have been looking for
ward"
The treasury secretary denied
Glass charge that funds of the
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton had been used for political
purposes, charged that most "un-
sound legislation" introduced in the
last session of congress had Dem
ocratic origin and accused Gov.
Franklin D. Roosevelt of keeping
silent on the question of curren-
cy initiation.
Glass declared the President was
"eitfler indifferent of the facts or
indifferent to the truth" in his
statement that at one time this
year the country was nearly forced
from the gold standard.

DAY Of REST
IN CAMPA|C
Roosevelt In Conference At
Albany With Advisers And
Prepares Final Talk.
I, 1892, NEA Service. Inc.
BY FREDERICK A. STORM
United Press Staff Correspondent

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. Gov
Franklin D. Roosevelt was at
home" in Albany again today, to
spend a comparatively restful "a
hours before he enters the home
stretch Of his race for the Presi-
dency.
On his days program, in con-
trast to the whirlwind finish of his
four-day campaign in New Eng
land, which ended last night after
he had spurted homeward at 65
miles an hour over rainsoaked
roads. were only a few conferences
with his advisers, and one public
address, scheduled for this even
ing.
The finish of the governors cam
paign to win the New England
state found him driving for ID
hours through cold and rain, along
route that carried him for 800
miles through the mill towns of
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and
Connecticut.
RoCSevelt'S appearances in the
final phases Of his tour were nee
essarily brief and we're hampered
by weather conditions that forced
him to use closed limousine in
stead of the open automobile that
had carried him through Massa-
chusetts and Maine. But, notably
at Providence, r. l., were approx
imately 10000 citizens gathered in
the light rain, lining the sidewalks
and jamming themselves into door
ways and beneath awnings, he was
able to extend his best wishes" to
the crowds through a microphone
thrust into his hands.
A driving rain struck the candi-
dates party when it reached Wor-
cester, Mass, out several thousand
persons, who had waited two hours
beneath umbrellas to see him, de-
fled the elements to receive his
greeting.
Tomorrow, the governor will make
three speeches, two in Newark and
Jersey City, and the third in the
Metropolitan Opera House, New
York. He will conclude his cam
paign with an address at Madison
Square garden Saturday.

him, Albert Markham went out
