of high finance" Couzens explained that the government has no lawful right to interfere before loans arc made. fife said millions of dollars were loaned in Detroit by banks upon their own stock--"a violation of law"
 "The government was not dele gated by law to dictate the wisdom of consultations" he added in ex' plaining that much of the high finance to which he referred was the wholesale consolidation of banks during the boom times. X Several bankers testified here before," Toy said, "that as late as in good condition"
 'That," replied the senator, "is not true"
 Several preceding witnesses have testified that Alfred P. Leyburn, federal bank examiner. in Novem- Der of 1892 told the bankers their institutions were solvent and later declared they were insolvent. Ques- tfoned as to the statements Couz- ems said:
 "Mr Leyburn is merely an em- ploye of the treasury department He had no right to tell any bank whether 1t is solvent or insolvent. That is a matter for the comptrol- Ter of the currency"
 The senator added that the rea- son for such a ruling was obvious. That if under-offlcials could give such information great damage might be done to general depositors by interruptions officers who could make wholesale withdrawals on basis of such advance notice of a banks insolvency.

Fabricated Metal Products Concerns
 Preparing Codes
ScoviI Company Official Is Wce-Chairman of New Group Comprising 6,5OO Industries-All Water bury Concerns Would Be Affected By Codes, Says Local Official

William M. Goss, secretary o1 the Scovill Mfg Company, wal elected vice-chairman of the Fab- ricated Metal Products Federation which embraces approximately G. 500 industries all over the United States, at an organization meeting at Washington, D. c. on August 10th.
 Representative of those indus tries gathered at Washington to draw up a proposed code of fair competition for the fabricated metal products industry. Deputy Administrator o. H. King, under General Hugh Johnson, was pres- ent and addressed the meeting.
 MT Goss was named one of the Is directors chosen for the feder- ation and the directors elected the officers. l.. D. North of Cleveland was named chairman and Harry s. Kimball was chosen secretary treasurer.
 After a conference with MT King yesterday, the Federation address ed a communication to some $500 manufacturers and trade associa- tions, employing between 750,0OO and 1.50O,000 persons, urging that all clements of the industry agree on a single basic code.
 Representatives of appr oximate-

, and athletic organizations some 35 years ago, and is affiliated with several fraternal organizations of l today.
 Many outstanding Waterburians were in the race for the position, including Michael J. Bergin, demo- cratic town committee choice, Will liam T. Harrington, Roosevelt Cross club candidate, Attorney Michael Noonan, Charles Babin, a member of the finance board and Edward Real. Martin Scully was prominently mentioned for the position, but withdrew from the race when it was learned the age limitation would bar him. City Treasurer Ed ward L. Futile was also mentioned, but 1t was believed that he was also barred on account of the age limit.
 Upon receipt of the letter from the postmaster general this morn ing, Postmaster Colgrove sum- moned MT Kelley in his office and announced the essence of the letter. The new appointee was taken by surprise as MT Colgrove offered his hand in congratulation. As soon as the news spread about town MT Kelley was busy answering con- gratulatory telephone calls and re- ceiving the warm handshakes of friends who called personally.

They pointed out that Washington will elect dele gates by legislative districts and not by popular vote, as in most states. Thus the heaviest wet ma jorities in repeal counties would be useless in their lights in the dry counties,

ly 100 organizations and compan- ies met with Mir King and went oyer with him the provisions of the code which had been drafted. It was made clear that the indus try desires to conform with the NRA and the presidents re-em- ployment agreement.
 With so many manufacturing and trade groups, however, fear was expressed that if each group or a large number of groups should insist upon having separate codes, the principal purpose of the act getting idle persons back to work and expediting recovery - would be seriously delayed and much confusion would result.
 MT Goss stated today that prac- tically every industry in Waterbury comes under the Federation. He said a meeting of the Manufac- turers Association of Connecticut will be called in the near future at which the proposed code will be outlined. MT Goss Is chairman of the Manufacturers Association committee which was appointed to explain the proposed code. Others of that committee are Henry Nay Tor of Seymour, Fuller Barnes of Bristol, Leslie Jockmus of Ansonia, I. L. Ferris of Bridgeport, and R. E. Prichard of New Britain.
 MT Goss said that when the basic code is agreed upon by all affiliated industries. it will be submitted to the administration at Washington for approval, so that all manufac- turers can obtain the Blue Eagle. The Blue Eagle has already been received by the Scovill Manufacture ing Company and other companies under the copper and brass mill products code.
 The meeting at Washington was called to order by MT King, who stated that the problem of at- tempting to apply separate codes to the various divisions and sub divisions of the fabricated metal products industry presented an element of time which would be required to hold public hearings thereon. He said he had been re- quested to call the meeting by those who had prepared a plan for expediting the work of the N. R. A. He said the N. R. A. would accept any plan that consolidated a large group of industries with similar codes under one basic code cover ing uniform employment provisions and general conditions of fair trade thus eliminating many expensive public hearings and speeding up the process on accom-. the purpose of the MIRA. and the FRA.

the oil code to President Roosevelt for promulgation "some time this afternoon after I have looked at the protests" If any mistakes have been made, I'll change them"
 Four groups of the oil industry had presented objections. The protestants included Wirt Frank lin, representing the industry's $ wanted price fixing applied both to crude oil and the refined pro- duct.
 Johnson said the troublesome question of price passing points of the steel industry was near agree ment. Matters of wages and hours still were being discussed but in- dicated he expected action on Q complete steel code soon.
 A revised bituminous coal code has been written by MIRA officials for presentation this afternoon to coal men in conference here. John- son said he hoped action would be obtained soon also on this basic industry.
 Regarding the presidential re- employment agreements, Johnson said he was not going to attempt any "census" until the drive had been completed.
 Leaders of the soft coal indus- try worked under White House pressure for agreement on 8 code by tomorrow night. Quick action was expected to bring the lumber business under the Blue Eagle. Hearings on the Automobile code were to begin this morning. Administration proposals on labor provisions of the coal code, which have blocked agreement hitherto, were understood to ban strikes, set up a permanent arbi- tration board. and provide for na- tion-wide recognition of the United Mine Workers of America.
 sMr Roosevelt and Johnson adopted high-pressure tactics to hurry the industries into codes. Johnson summoned oil leaders to Q conference late. yesterday and thrust before them copy of code revised by the government. He gave them until 10 a. m. to- day to file written objections.
 Johnson hoped to have the oil, fore the President leaves for
 
 The controversy that blocked agreement among petroleum lead- CTS was resolved in favor of pro- vision for price fixing and pro- duction control, Expected to have the effect of increasing crude oil prices about 20 per cent.
 The president told delegation of soft coal operators that John- son would help them draw up la- bor provisions of their code. The company union and open shop is- sues have blocked agreement up to now.
 It was indicated, however, that the administration would not in. sist on its labor provisions. and might effect a truce on the union- ization issue for the time being. It was pointed out that tests on la- bor's demand for the right to or- ganize all mines will come after the code becomes effective, prob- ably through appeals to the Ma. tional Labor Board.
 A leading Pennsylvania coal op- orator confirmed that MT Roose- welt set tomorrow night as the deadline for the coal code, but said he did not see how it would be possible to complete 1t. He denied that MT Roosevelt had threatened to promulgate code for the in- dustry if 1t did not reach an agree ment by then. but there were mounting indications that the ad- ministration would countenance little delay.
