WHEAT ANDCOTTON
IN SHARP ADVANCE
Other Commodities Have
Shown Higher Trend During
Banking Holiday.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, March 1.-THE two
"big money" commodities, wheat nnd
cotton, continued their climb to higher
price levels where markets were open
today, and a renewal of buying in va
rious food products, metals and tex
tiles, lifted many EQUATIONS to the high
est plane since the start of the bank
holiday.
Some observers expressed the opinion
the brisker demand in these markets
reflected increased buyer confidence on
the expectation Of an early resumption
Of banking operations. The possibility
that Government remedial action IN the
present crisis might involve direct efforts
to raise the general price level also was
cited as q factor in the demand.
Cotton holders were chary about nam

BANKING CRISIS UNITES
NATION FOR RECOVERY
Confidence in the Presidents Leader
ship Has Resulted in Better Feeling
Among Business Men.

the events of the last few days mark
the end Of the critical period OF the
depression and that we may expect q
gradual Improvement In the business
life 'cf the country, though we should
not look for too much Of q recovery in
the next few months while the neces-
sary readjustments are being made.
Strengthening the Banks.
These readjustments will possibly in
volve some further shocks to the pub
lie, especially to the depositors in what
are classified as the weak" banks.
President Roosevelt in his message 10
Congress made 1t clear that the first
task was to reopen "all sound banks. !"
Other banks are to be reorganiZed and
reopened as it may be found necessary
to strengthen their capital structure
and to place them on a secure basis
This is the time to deal with individual
situations In such way that they will
no longer infect the general banking
position. It may be done now with less
disturbance to all concerned than
would have been possible earlier.
It has been known for months that
there were numerous banks that had
exhausted large portion Of their liquid
assets in meeting the demands of their
depositors and that, with the shrinkage
in their securities and in their real
estate investments. they have suffered
heavy drains on their surplus and even
impaired their capital. Such condi-
ton is a menace to the sound banks.
They have had to combine to carry
their limping competitors. The sug-

LIVE STOCK PRICES
SLIGHTLY IMPROVED
Steers and Other Glasses of Cattle
Have Gained During the
Past Week.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press. t'-
In a general way live stock markets
have come through a hectic week, with
very little fundamental change from
the seasonal trend.
With the exception of weighty steers
the more important classes of cattle are
about rs cents higher, fat lambs and
yearlings 10 to Is cents higher and
hogs are virtually unchanged. Chicago
paid a practical top of s7.25 for long
yearlings, compared with an extreme
top Of $3.50 last week, while the upper
crust of the light and long yearling sup
ply moved freely at $3.50 up. The prac-
tical top on hogs was $3.75, the same as
a week ago, and on the close shippers
did not 60 above $3.50 for lambs.
1t was hard to reconcile the final
analysis to the early boom caused by
uncertainty as to whether the markets
would stay open in the face Of the ma
tional bank holiday. Demand was
whipped into frenzied state during
the first two days of the week. The
fresh pork market went wild. prices
jumping up at the rate Of 81 an hour
only to flop back later. The extreme
peak reached s440 for hogs and the
general market was at the highest levels
in SIX months. Gains of around IS
cents on 100 pounds were registered be-
fore record ruin of supplies allowed
buyers to take of the upturn as rapidly
as it was put.on.
The imitation. market had shot the
general price level Of cattle up Is to
rs cents only to be swept back when
the country rushed in all classes and
grades, establishing new trucking rec
ord. Fat lambs jumped to $6.40 at Chi
cago, the highest point since January,
but the market collapsed just as sud-
denly. The close was so to IS cents
under the weeks high time, the top
dropping successfully from $6.40 to $5.85
and finally to $3.50.

RECASTING OF BANK
SYSTEM DEMANDED
Unified Set-Up Of Financial Insti-
tutions Is Urged as Protective
Measure.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, March 11-What Con-
gress In its special session may do to
enact emergency banking legislation
is only bit more important in the eyes
of the banking world than the steps
it may then take to effect an entire re-
casting of the banking system Of the
country.
More sentiment has been created
since Saturday in favor Of a unified
banking set-up than could have been
possible by means Of propaganda car
ried over period of normal years.
The public Is now demanding CO.
ordinated banking system as a buttress
against any future drain on banking
resoudces. The emergency compels ma
tional banks, that are members Of the
Federal Reserve System. and State
banks, which are outside the system, to
operate under the same general condi-
tions during the crisis. This provides
the necessary leverage of public opinion
to bring them once and for all under
one centrally located authority.
It is not the plan to dilute or weaken
the general banking situation by taking
into the Federal Reserve System large
number of institutions that are at
present of the class that Senator Glass
stated should be liquidated. At the
same time 1t Is possible through re-
vision of banking laws to assist them
and their depositors through the transt-
tcopyrisht. 1882 -.

BANKERS PREPARE
TO REOPEN MONDAY
All Sound Institutions in Ma
ton Are Ready to Resume
Business.
BY VICTOR EUBANK.
Associated Press Financial Writer.


NEW YORK, March 1.-THE coun-
try's banking machinery was being
oiled up today in preparation for pro-
ceeding under full head Of steam
Monday when most of the large in
stitutions in all States are expected to
open for normal business.
The principal New York banks. in
addition to fling reopening applications
with the Federal Reserve Bank, were
accepting deposits on an "if and
when" basis, and several of them were
meeting pay rolls in full and cashing
all necessary checks.
At the same time the hoarders'
gold rush" gained headway, with
lines of coins, bullion and certificate
changers swamping the tellers at %
windows of the Federal Reserve Bank.
The bank opened for the receipt Of
gold at o'clock this morning and
expected to remain open all afternoon.
The banks usual closing hour on Sat-
urday is noon.
Tabulation of yesterdays receipts,
principally from penitent and fright
ened hoarders, disclosed that of the
s20,000,000 received at the central
bank here, 100000 was in coin and
bullion and the remainder in gold GER
.tif1cates. Federal Reserve notes are
given in exchange for gold.
Federal Reserve member banks filed
their recpening applications with
regional central banks and these were
transmitted, generally by telegraph, to
the Treasury at Washington. Prompt
replies to all applications were ex-
pected, owing to the fact that the exact
condition of member institutions is on
file at the headquarters of the Federal
Reserve Board. 1t was not believed
the names of those banks permitted to
reopen. or whose resumption of busi-
ness was delayed for one reason or
another. would be made public.
Certain foreign exchange business
will be transacted for known CONNER
cial purposes and it was even expected
the Federal Reserve Bank would be
permitted to earmark some gold under
special Government license.

In the silk trade the light sale of

substantial contraction of production in

as surprise to those outside of the

been operating on basis of 100 per

proposed lowered price lists were with
