Loans to "BlIsted
Industry" Refused
BY Chicago Bank
President Informs Jones
His Institution Is Elig.
ibIe for "BIack List"
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, March 9.-Commenting
on a report that "black list" was
being prepared of banks unwilling to
make loans on responsible securities
for the aid Of industry and business,
j. M. Nichols, president of the First
National Bank of Englewood, who has
kept his institution almost liquid, said
in a letter Wednesday to Jesse H.
Jones, head of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation:
If so protecting the deposits Of
some 10000 persons has become a fel-
ony, then We are eligible for the black
list and proposed boycott. Turn on
the heat, if you will. But not dol
lar of our customers money Is going
toward the support of busted industry
and idiotic professor ideas. My
first duty is to my depositors and not
to you or the Democratic party.
When I believe that our merchants
can safely and profitably borrow
of paying it back, shall tell them SO.
In the meantime we sit tight. 1t is
not my money, neither IS it yours. It
is the depositors'. If they are not
satisfied with the way we conduct q
bank. they may withdraw it. put it
in their sock or bury it where they
will Then possibly some Of you po-
litica1 crooners can induce them to
make these loans to industry them
selves. I refuse to take this respon-
sibility, as I do not believe this a
safe time either to borrow or to loan" !"

more Lad came in about 40
lengths ahead of the second
horse. He and Gigolo ran two
circles of the course neck and
neck, jumping beautifully to-
gether. But at the seventeenth
fence Drinmore Lad moved up
and Gigolo fell back as Chario-
teer took second place. 1t was
seen that Gigolo was all in and
as he came slowly in he seemed
corded up. Gigolo has been an
outstanding horse and winner
for two seasons and it is hoped
he will soon recover.
The third race, the Burnleigh,
about two and half miles over
brush, was won by Peacock,
owned by Anderson Fowler, and
ridden by Burley Cooke. This
horse was the only one to finish
the race. 1t started out to be
an interesting race with four
starters. Hopeful Jim, Mrs. J.
H. Whitney's entry, lost his
rider, Henry Frost. jr., at the
second fence. Cold Punch, an
other Whitney entry, lost his
rider. Charlie White, at the
fifth fence, and Northern Light,
the favorite, lost his rider at the
eleventh fence.
The fourth race, the Ray
mond Belmont Memorial, about
three miles over timber, was the
most exciting race of the day,
with eight starters. 1t was won
by Career, owned by Mrs. Simon
T. Patterson, ridden and trained
by Noel Laing. Second was
Dan MCGEE, owned by B. l..
Behr, and ridden by Stewart
Janney.
Third was independence Boy,
owned by Mrs. Vadim Makaroff
and ridden by William Street.
Laguna Secea, the favorite,
owned by Charles E. Perkins
and ridden by Henry Frost, jr.,
ran a great race, we'll out in
front until he lost his rider
three fences from home.
Silver Pay, owned by Jack

and Grown Up also ran. Blue
Admiral started, but was pulled
up by j. E. Ryan early in the
race.
The fifth race, The Homeland,
