FEDERAL RESERVE
ATTACKS CENTRAL
BANK COOPERATION
Board Vetoes U. S. Participa.
ton in Discussion of
Resolution At Farley

London, July 12.-P-The Amer
lean federal reserve board, it was un-
derstood In authoritative quarters
Wednesday, has vetoed participation
by the United States delegation at
the world economic conference in dis
cussion of q resolution calling for
central bank cooperation.
This resolution was backed bv the
European gold bloc and has been un-
DER consideration by the sub commit
tee on permanent monetary prob
lens.
It was stated Senator Pittman of
Nevada told the subcommittee the
federal reserve board felt the resolu-
ton was premature"
Some members of the committee
asserted this attitude killed further
consideration Of Senator Pittman's
important resolution calling for,
among other things, eventual return
to the gold standard, reduction Of the
gold cover to Is per cent, and optional
use Of silver for one-fifth OF this
cover.
DSAASOA ~ x1AA4OA ANSoAAS
American quarters, however, en-
rhatically denied the federal reserve
veto had anything to do with the
Pittman resolution, the gold section
Of which has already been approved
by the subcommittee.
The Americans maintained the fed
eral reserve authorities were referring
only to cooperation Of central banks
as proposed in another resolution Of
fered by European state a few days
ago.
Gold bloc quarters expressed indig-
nation and declared this attitude
brought the conference much nearer
complete standstill. One non-gold
country's delegate agreed with this
view.
Central bank cooperation was one
Of three subjects which the bureau.

Gay could be usefully discussed with
out creating dissension. The bureaus
decision was the climax of q battle
between the gold countries, which
wished to eliminate virtually all
monetary questions pending dollar
sterilization, and the American group.
which wanted to continue discussion
Of the full agenda.
Harmony Appears Insured
Tuesdays decision by the guiding
body of the parley was hailed as in
suring harmonious continuation Of
the deliberations until the time ar
rived for recess.
It was understood the Americans
thought they could go ahead with
treatment Of central bank coopera-
ton, but James p. Warburg, financial
expert with the delegation, took the
precaution to send a message to the
federal reserve board to make sure Of
the position.
The boards unexpected veto was in
terpreted in some American quarters
rs an indication the federal authori-
lies were fearful Of discussions which
might commit the United States upor
the subject Of returning to the gold
standard, or sterilization.
