BY the Associated rress.

The National Coal Association today
urged the Federal Government to
abandon the Tennessee Valley power
development and all other hydro
electric projects as "wasteful" and
without economic or social justifica-
ton"
The associations annual meeting
closed with adoption of the power
project resolution and a report of its
bituminous industry wanted to keep
its code for at least two years after
next April l.
The Federal power projects. the
resolution said, would dislocate private
industry and lead to unemployment.
Claim Recovery Retarded.
"They will infiict great losses on
coal and related industries and impose
new burdens on the taxpayers" 1t
continued. They will put an end
to rather than promote recovery"
In asking continuation Of the coal
code. the committee found that, un-
der N. r. A:
% The code had been a forward
step toward stabilization and re-
habilitation Of the industry"
CD The maintenance of "fair
minimum market prices Is essential
for the protection Of hours OF labor,
rates Of pay and conditions of en-
ployment set up for the industry"
80 The emergency which a year
ago required control OF hours, rates
Of pay and fair market prices still
exists and will continue to exist until
such time as control of over-expan-
sion be established"
The committee recommended legis-
lation to continue those N. r. A. fea-
lures two years from April /, 1885,
"or until some permanent basis OF
sound recovery in this industry shall
be established"
Such legislation, It continued,
Should include such specific exemp-
tions from the prohibitions of the
antitrust acts, TO be administered
under the supervision Of an appro-
pirate Federal board as may be re-
quired to make such stabilization
provisions effective"
The committee also proposed 1t be
continued or another committee ap-
pointed to make more detailed rec
concentrations. The committee is
headed by John D. A. Morrow OF
Pittsburgh.
The association elected J. P. Will

O'CONNOR OFFERED.
$24,0OO POSITION
Controller Of Currency May
Accept Post as Federal
Reserve Agent.
Nv tha Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The post Of Federal Reserve agent
In San Francisco has been offered to
j. F. T O'Connor, controller OF the
currency, in a move that was con-
sidered an effort to promote harmony
among Federal banking agencies.
O'Connor said he did not have the
slightest idea" as to whether he
would accept the place, but in quar-
ters close to the situation it was be-
lieved his decision might be favor
able.
Reports of the controllers impend-
ing resignation, which have been cur
rent for months, were renewed re-
Gently when it became known Secre-
tary Morgenthau had taken steps to
coordinate the controllers office with
other Treasury bureaus. Prior to that
the Office had been considered Vlr-
tually independent, though a part
of the Treasury.
Will Clear Up Situation.
If O'Connor accepts the San Fran
cisco place, it will also clear up a
situation resulting from long-stand-
ing differences of opinion between
himself and Leo T. Crowley, chairman
of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corp, of which O'Connor is a men,
ber.
The possibility of O'Connor's res
ignation aroused discussion as TO the
effect it might have on any move to
unite the functions of the controller
u,itr those Of the F d. l. G,
Coordination of Federal bank ex-
amining agencies was the objective
of a meeting of examiners held here
recently on which a report is being
drawn up by DIR. Jacob Viner, eco
nonnic adviser to Morgenthau.
Whether Viner'S report would rec
ommend legislation amounting to a
virtual consolidation of the two ot1ces
has been the subject of much specu-
lation.
Would Leave Two Vacancies.
O'Connor's acceptance Of the new
post would leave two important flnan-
cial positions to be filled in addition
to that of controller. They are the
eovernorship of the Federal Reserve
Board. left vacant by the resignation
of Eugene R. Black, now governor OF
the Atlanta Bank, and the place on
the three-man F. D. l. c. Board,
formerly held by E. G. Bennett. Ben
nett, partner in the varied enter
prises of Mariner S. EccleS, special
assistant to Morgenthau, left some
months ago to resume business in
Utah.
OConnor has been mentioned as a
candidate for the Reserve Board gov
ernorship, and some observers were
inclined to believe he would defer
decision on the San Francisco offer
until that appointment was announced
by the President. Mr.. Roosevelt indi-
Gated recently the governor would be
named within few weeks.
The Federal Reserve agent is the
representative Of the board, and serves
as chairman of the Reserve Bank. The
salaries vary according to districts,
the San Francisco compensation be-
ing $4,000, which is twice that re-
ceived by the controller of the cur
