CASH
IS BANKERS
PROBLEM

ATLANTA, Ca, March 25.-One
Of the greatest problems facing
the bankers of America is finding
q safe medium for employment of
idle cash, Tom K. Smith, of st.
Louis, president of the American
Bankers Association, declared here
today in the opening session of
the regional conference of the as
sociation. He said:
.. "A major question which is
going to be with us for years
is the investment of surplus
funds. A high degree of liquid
ity has been forced upon us by
pressure of circumstances, but
we cannot pay dividends with
liquidity."
To make matters worse. he
added, the day is coming when
government securities, one of the
most important present forms of
investment, will be available only
in greatly reduced quantities, be-
cause of the Social Security Act.
Approximately 8 per cent of the
business payroll of the country
this year will be diverted by social
security. which must be invested
in Government bonds, he ex-
planned.
, At present, the banks have too
much idle cash. despite the fact
they hold over so per cent of the
Governments debt, he asserted.
Another major problem con-
fronting both the bankers and the
Government is determining how
much of the banking work, taken
over by the Government during
the depression, should be turned
back to the chartered banks. The
emergency which prompted exten-
sion of the Governments banking
activities is now past, and a COM
mittee of the Bankers Association
is now making a study of the situ-
alton with a vie wof taking the
matter up with Government Off
cials, he said.

Deluged with criticism from
stamp collectors, particularly those
in the South, the Post Office De-
partment was quick to explain to-
day why Gen. Robert E. Lee is
shown on the Lee, Jackson 4-cenC
memorial stamp as a lieutenant
colonel.
"The two stars on his uniform
are not right" the collectors COM
planned, and Roy N. North, deputy
third assistant postmaster gen.
eral, agreed. but explained:
Zone star (the missing star
Of the three-star insignia of a
generaD is hidden behind, rather
around the coat lapel"
Pictures of Lee, Army officials
said, show him wearing two stars
and others show him wearing
three stars.

ON LABOR
POWDERED
By WILLIAM s. NEAL
COPYRIGHT, 1897
International News Service


I President Roosevelt Is consider.
ing legislation imposing definite,
legal responsibility upon labor as
a means of preventing possible
abuse of the vast power granted
labor by law.
This was revealed today by
presidential advisers as the Ad-
ministration's legislative program
for the remainder of the session
of Congress was outlined.
Mr.. Roosevelt was represented
as believing that labor will use its
new found power" with discre-
ton, but that the obligation Of
maintaining contracts should be
imposed upon labor by law, just as
employers are required by law to
bargain collectively with workers.
The proposed legislation, still
in the tentative stage, may be in
cluded in general substitute NRA"
legislation, embracing minimum
wages, maximum hours and fair
trade practices. It is also pos
Sible that it may be included in
amendments to the antitrust laws.
Two presidential messages are
now planned by Mr.. Roosevelt.
They are:
Message outlining national
power policy, including develop
ment Of iva and other existing
projects, and development Of
new projects for power, naviga-
tion and flood control. Message
expected in near future.
A wage and hour message,
discussing also fair trade prac.
ticeS and the obligations Of
labor in return for the guarantee
OF collective bargaining given
by the Wagner labor act. Time
OF submission depends on prog
ress Of Supreme Court enlarge
ment fight.
Would Link Nation
The power message will suggest
creation Of eight reginal authori-
ties, similar to iva, embracing
strategic points where cheap
power, linking the entire Nation,
will be developed in great volume.
The message also will deal with
flood control, navigation and con-
servation of natural resources.
Mr.. Roosevelt told his Congress
sional leaders he would fight for
the Observation-Disclosures relief
fund and insist upon a farm ten
ant program. The latter program
will be modest, entailing a cost Of,
perhaps, only ten million dollars a
year, but will include authority
for the purchase of submarginal
land and rural rehabilitation.
Mr.. Roosevelt plans to ask the
Attorney General for a legal
opinion on the question of whether
he still has the power to decrease
appropriations by Is per cent.
If the Attorney General holds
that Mr.. Roosevelt has this power,
the congressional battle between
10 per cent horizontal slash in
appropriations and giving the
President authority to impound Is
per cent may be ended.
