forcement of the banking laws by the comptroller of the currency in 1880 would have prevented the debacle of collapsed banks in the nation, Senator James Couzens testified today before grand jury inyuiry into Detroit banks.
 "If the comptroller had enforc- ed the laws as early as 193O," Couzens said, i've would have avoided all this trouble now. There would have been a gradual li- quidation of these banks"
 Meanwhile, Prosecutor Harry s. Toy dispatched a letter to Former President Hoover renewing his earlier request that MT Hoover volunteer to come here to testify. No mention was made of subpoena which, Toy explained. would have on compelling power outside Mich- igan. Couzens testified that Senator Glass told him comptroller Poole and his success of await had mot enforced the banking laws because they feared National Bank col lapse"
 Explaining tendency of the REC officials to curtail loans, the sena- tor said that after the public furor following the Dawes loan of $90,- 000.000 and the authorization of his committee to investigate the REC loans it wa snatural officilas should be more cautious.
 officials are always on the alert l when the public is watching 1 them, he added.
 CouZens denied vigorously from the witness stand to-day that any past political or business battles in Detroit influenced his opposition to loans requested of the REC by De- troit banks.
 As the senator took the stand to conclude his testimony before the grand jury inquirinG into Detroit bank failures Prosecutor Harry S. Toy prepared to renew his attem pt to bring former President Herbert Hoover here as a witness.
 At the opening of to-day's ses- sion of the grand jury, Attorney O'Brien rapidly drew from the senator a brief account of his early history. in Detroit.
 Couzens explained that in 1915 he disagreed with Henry Ford over policies of the Ford Motor l company and severed his connec- tion with the firm.
 Did that disagreement leave any personal bitterness that migh, have affected your future atti- tude 2" O'Brien asked.
 Not so far as I am concerned ' Couzens replied. While can- not speak for Mir Ford I don't think he has any feelings about the matter either"
 The questioning dealt at length with local banking details and the senator's attitudes regarding them Couzens condemned the wholesale amalgamations and consolidation. of banks, in Detroit. asserting tha depositors who placed their fund. | in single institutions were never | consulted about the mergers.
