Bankers Fear Danger Ln Central Bank Plan
Think Government Control Over Banking Would Alter Whole Economic Life of Nation

a temporary emergency. Its aim now should be to withdraw that control as quickly as possible, in so far as 1t tends to make banking operations subject to political in- fluences.
 This should not be interpreted to mean either that the government should refrain from regulating banks or that no further changes in the banking system are needed. Certain changes are, very much needed, but they do not consist in placing the entire business of bank ing under political control. They consist, rather. in providing the sort of regulation by which sound banking can flourish under the management of experienced and competent bank officials. e
 The principal steps necessary to create. the sort of banking system that the country really needs are relatively simple. First and most important, there should be one fed eral system with compulsory mem- bership for all mercial banks. Bank charters should be granted only upon proof of public tneces- sity. Uneconomic banks should be eliminated. Banks should be. per- mitted to have branches within trade areas as defined by the re. spective Federal Reserve banks. but in the development . of the branch system the sound unit banks should be protected.
 The general supervision of the banks and the banking system should be vested in the Federal Reserve banks. The Federal Re. serve banks should have, among other powers. that to compel the fo unsound prac- tices. to prohibit the payment of and to close banks. ss
 The unsound plan for perma. nent guaranty of bank deposits should be abandoned at the earliest possible moment.
 All changes should be based on
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-10-15

New York, Oct. 15.-Among the legislative proposals that are like- ly to be brought before the next none is of more interest or of, more vital importance than the plan for a governmentally con- trolled central bank, states the Guaranty Trust company of New York in its weekly survey, review of business and financial conditions in the United States and abroad.
 The most ominous possibilities of such a proposal lie not in the fact that 1t would extend the control of banking, but that 1t would alter the nature of the banking process in such way as to place the entire economic life of the country under the regulation of public official, the survey continues.
 The nature of the plan cannot be fully understood except in It's rela- ton to the general recovery pro gram of the administration. The program of public loans and ex- penditures involves borrowing on q huge scale by the government, mainly from the banks. This bor- rowing has already proceeded to a point where about one-third Of total bank portfolios consists of government bonds and where mem Der banks of the Federal Reserve system alone hold more than one third of the total public debt. It Is recognized that, if this borrowing continues. it will become increas- .ingly difficult for the government to float bonds at reasonable rates of interest.
 With the central bank complete ly under the cosatrol of the gov-. ernment, this limit. could be greatly extended; and if the central bank should be relieved of reserve re- quirements, there would be no limit, at all. The central bank, under these circumstances, could simply issue notes in exchange for gpv-4 ernment bonds. For all practical purposes, this would be equivalent to a direct issue of greenbacks by the government. To the extent that such a policy was pursued, the cen tral bank. would be merely an sin- of roundabout infia- tion.
 The central bank plan, instead of removing the banking system further from political control and restoring greater measure of self regulation to the bankers of the country, would put the entire bank ing structure into politics to m ex- tent never before contemplated in the United States. Government con : trol of the supply of credit would sooner, or later involve efforts at goyornmenf control Of nrtcas rro. duction. and business policies in general. The entire industrial and commercial structure of the nation would be affected. .s,5st,S
 The government has already ex- tended its control over banking very drastically, partly, at least as
