Federal reserve experts, it was
learned today, practically have COM
pleted a plan to unlock S2000,000,-
900 of frozen deposits by govern
ment purchase of preferred stock
on a large scale. The objective is
to pay off depoSitorS and set aside
slow assets for gradual liquidation.
Banks which do not cooperate will
be forced into liquidation. The
plan will be ready for announce
ment next week.
This plan, coupled with the steps
taken to raise cotton and other
agricultural prices. represents a
gigantic move to expand credit and
put money into circulation and thus
meets the aims of the once more
rampant inf1ationistS by what Presi-
dent Roosevelt regards as Sounder
and safer means.
Cotton Loans Outlined
Perhaps late today. certainly on
Monday, the agriculture department
will announce details of a plan out
lined at the White House Friday
for loans to farmers, at 10 cents
pound, on this years cotton in
their possession in exchange for
commitments to reduce acreage next
year in accordance with the admin
istration's program.
This will result in withholding
cotton from the market and should
stabilize the price at once. The
President counts upon his other
credit expansion measures to spur
the price still further. Cotton now
is around 8 cents a pound.
This price boosting plan comes on
top Of allotment of $75.000,O00 for
purchase of surplus agricultural
products to feed and clothe the I'M
employed this winter. Both fol-
lowed quickly on the recent cotton
convention which revealed to the
administration the threat of
aroused farmers.
Urge Coal for Needy
Today, also, the administration
was considering adding coal to the
commodities that might be pur-
chased to aid the needy.
Economic experts long have re-
garded the frozen bank deposits rs
chief deterrent to the recovery
program Freeing of this store of
money, they have argued, would
contribute to the advance more than
any other one thing and would be
particularly helpful now that the
public works program has failed to
come up to expectations.
They finally have won President
Roosevelt over to the idea that
prompt action is needed because Of
the slow course of the treasury.
While the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation has bought preferred
stock in some ninety banks to
hasten reopening, banks have not
been quick to take advantage OF
this assistance. The new plan vir-
tually will be compulsory. 1t will
mean enlarged government control
over the country's banking struc-
ture.
Alternative Is Debated
An alternative plan was consid-
cred. This would entail issuance of
greenbacks under the imitation act
to pay off depositors of closed banks.
Bonds first would have to be issued
to comply with the act, and then
these would be retired by green
backs. Some within the inner cir
Gle preferred this plan but the more
conservative won out. President
Roosevelt still harbors a taboo
against printing press money, de-
spite the terrific pressure that has
been borught upon him within the
last few days by responsible party
leaders for direct currency imitation.

Pushing the large VOlumn,
around the office on wheels, Derry
asserts that the words dance"
and walk" are synonymous.
TO dance" according to the
dictionary. and phrase included
in the city ordinance which is
under fire-is defined as:
To perform, either alone or
with others, regular succession
Of movements, commonly to the
sound of music. Or to bob up
and down as a mote in the air"
Or ito execute serpentine move
ments or evolutions, compared to
the old dance called the hay"
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-09-23

Upon these definitions, Derry,
who has watched the "walkathon
for the last few night, will base
his petition to the court asking
that the temporary injunction
now in effect be dissolved, so that
police may act.
There is plenty of serpentine
movements in this 'Walkathon,'
Deery declared. LAS a matter of
fact, it's a shame, Webster could
not have seen it. His definition
would be most interesting and
enlightening.

NEW YORK, April 18.-There is
L something solid and perma-
nent about the House of Morgan,
something like the old feudal duke
doms of the Middle Ages.
It's descent from father to son.
its survival of panic and depression
down through the years of the
countrys history, make it unique.
More than 100 years ago, the
forebears of the Morgan clan was a
wealthy man, and nearly 300 years
ago the founders of the family came
to America.
Miles Morgan arrived in Boston
in 1886, accompanied by his broth
ers John and James, to seek for
tune in the new world.
Gets Land From Indians
Miles Immediately set forth as
a member of an expedition to
found settlement in the wilderness.
and was able to claim his shares of
land purchased from the Indians
cat Springfield, MasS0 by suppress
ing the fact that he was a minor
when lots were drawn for land.
That was the first Morgan business
deal in America.
Miles fought the Indians, and
descendant of his fought in the
Revolution as a captain.
But the story of the House of
Morgan really begins with Joseph
Morgan, who, about 1900, turned
from farming to become an inn
keeper. He did well, and, moving
to Hartford, became the proprietor
Of stage-coach lines.
Seeing the coming of the rail-
roads, Joseph sold out just in time,
and led the foundation of the Nor
gan fortunes.
Cashed In on Alarm
He was one of a number of
business men whose notes we're the
sole capital (no CASH of the Aetna
Fire Insurance Company. Suddenly
a disastrous fire swept New York.
Nervous note-makerS, VINO were also
the stockholders, felt they could
never pay off the claims.
But Joseph Morgan was not ner-
vous. He saw that if Aetna did
contrive to pay its claims quickly,
it would get most of the future
business.
So he formed pool, bought their
stock from the nervous ones, paid
the claims, and cashed in on his
courage. He made of this what was
then a glittering fortune-$15O,O0
But greater in his eyes than this
fabulous success was his son, Junius
Spencer Morgan. The boy should
be given a head-start in the world.
Joseph vowed.
So at %, a partnership was pur-
chased for Junius in the Hartford
dry goods firm of Howe. Mather g.
Co., for $4,000.
Becomes Merchant Prince
1t was the day of the merchant
prince" The banker as we know
him today did not exist; the stock
promoter was peddler; boys turned
their eyes in youth to the great
merchants in whom was concen-
trated the wealth of the day, whose
capital stood piled upon the shelves
in bolts of cloth.
The Kuhn-Loeb, Seligman, even
the RothSchild fortunes were built
on dry goods.
1t was 1886, and, established as
a rising merchant, Junius Morgan
married Juliet Pierpont, daughter
of Jealous army chaplain, preach
er and poet, veteran of a dozen cru
sades for social justice.
