New Banking Bill as Unques- tioned Triumph for Remov. ing Federal System System from Wan Street Influence; Financial Capital Gravitates Strongly To- ward Washington.
By RODNEY BUTCHER Democrat Washington
 Correspondent

W7AsHINGToN, Aug. 27- The w debated question of whether the new banking law represents a victory for Senator Carter Glass or Governor Eccles possibly is less important than a couple of other Issues. to wit:
 Does the act tighten and cen- tralixe public control over the na. tional banking, credit and financial policies?
 Does 1t tend to free American banks from the domination of Morgan and the big banks of New York;?
 Each time the answer seems to be: Enormously. Those were the chief aims, as every informed per- son knew, of the banking act of 1895 when 1t was first proposed.
 The present federal reserve board, regarded as more or less hostile to Roosevelt and friendly to the New York banks, will be dropped. Roosevelt will appoint a new board of seven men. The 12 governors of the regional federal reserve banks, now to be called president must hereafter have the approval of this board after they're chosen by bank directors. Three board members must be republi- cans, but republican No. un- doubtedly will lbe radical" Gov crnor Mariner Eccles himself and the other two probably his choices.
 
 Power Over Credit
 The new open market committee Is empowered to order Federal Reserve banks to buy or sell gov ernment securities-which at least theoretically will enable 1t to ex- pand or contract credit by increas- ing or decreasing reserves of mem- Der banks. The committee, thanks to Glass, comprises the FRB and five Federal Reserve bank presi- dents, instead of merely the FIRE as urged by Eccles.
 Whether this will mean public or banker control of open market operations remains to be seen and depends on the care with which Roosevelt selects the board. Re- member that the five governors must have been okayed by the FRB.
 Now, just contrast that new set up with the present open market control system, under which the t12 bank governors undertake to control those operations, repre- senting and responsible to private bankers.

Liquidity Facilitated

Another break the outside-New York banks get Is in the broaden. ing of~requirements on paper elig- ible for discount. Originally the only eligible paper was highly H. quid short-term stuff and in 1929 many banks went to the wall with sound assets because their paper was technically ineligible.
 The new act removes that and other restrictions, extends eligibil- ity to nearly all sound assets and allows national banks to lend much more literally on real es- tate. That means lot more to bankers outside New York than to the big institutions of Wall Street It may remove shackles in many cases and the administration. for the umptyumpth time, thinks il has pulled something from the hal which will do a lot toward elim. mating the bankers "liquidity tcopyright. 1885, NEA Service,

Shifts to Capital

Eccles and many other bankers have long been opposed to dom. ination of the banking system by Wall street bankers, who-more or less controlling the Federal Re- servc--have worked out credit po- licies, set the pace on rediscount rates and worked with European banks. Policies have sometimes been made in view of the interna. tional rather than the domestic situation, as when the discount DO. Hey was adjusted in 1927 in or. der to support the pound.
 The FRB now certainly will have no less than a balance of power between /the New York bankers and the other bankers and 1t looks as if control might def. initely be shifted from New York to Washington.
 Since the open market commit tee can force regional banks to buy government securities, 1t will be much more difficult for New York banks to carry out tacit threats program by refusing to buy Treasury issues.
