GLASS BANKING REFORM
 BILL TO BE FOUGHT OUT
The Morgans, Rockefeers And Senator Huey P.
 Long Will Be Heard In Congress

In the Rockefeller-M Morgan con- test, the colorful Louisianan is ex- pected to battle for the Rockefel- lers and their Chase National bank. President Roosevelt, likewise, will be on the Rockefeller side if he becomes directly involved.
 In one provision the Glass bill would compell all members of the Federal Reserve system to aban- don investment banking within two years. Commercial banks engage in investment banking through se- curity aff1liates, thus .evading the law forbidding banks to underwrite securities.
 Another provision would require J. P. Morgan and Co, and all other private investment bankers to abandon commercial banking op- erations such as the receipt of de- posits thus handicapping their in- vestment business.
 It would appear that the bill strikes at commercial banks and investment banks with equal force. Many commercial banks, however, under leadership of the Rockefel- ler-controlled Chase National, have admitted they never should have become investment bankers in the first place and have taken action to divorce Or disband their securi- ties affiliates.
 But the House of Morgan and other great private banks have shown no disposition to accept without protest legislation which would restrict their business.

United Press Stan COrreSpOndent)
 Washington, May 1S.-UP)- The Morgans, the Rockefellers and the Louisiana kingflsh will dom- mate consideration of the Glass banking reform bill, which after weeks of delay is the pending leg islative business in the senate, it appeared today.
 The Louderback impeachment trial obstructs bank bill progress, but senate leaders believe they can end it by Saturday night or Mon- day. On motion of Senator Buck ley, democrat, Ohio. the Glass bill late yesterday became the unfin- ished business to which the senate will turn when Judge Harold Lou derback and his lawyers depart.
 Senator Long, democrat, La, whose filibuster blasted the bank bill last winter. seems destined now for somewhat altered role. The kingfish centered his fire last ses- sion on the branch banking pro- vision of the Glass bill and whit tied it down to provide authority for National banks to operate branches only in states which au- thorize branch banking.
 The new bill contains the branch bank section accepted by Long after three weeks of picturesque tilibustering. The -kingfish's new fight is developing in another di- rection-to obtain extension of all state bnaks of proposed bank de- posit insurance protection.
