Ma|ott Urges Bankers
To Rally Public for
i. ). Defense
A. B. A. ConcIove Hears
Educators Plea for
Patriotic Stand

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. Sept. 29.-American
bankers were urged today by Deane
w. Malott, chancellor of the Uni
versity of Kansas, to rally the Amer
lean people to the defense Of Amer
lean ideals.
Speaking at the opening session Of
the American Bankers Association S
67th annual convention, Malott
asked:
"Are the bankers of America TAX
ing the leadership that belongs to
you, by right of ability and commu-
nifty standing, to rally Americans
everywhere to the urgency, the self
sacrifice, the action, needed to pre-
serve our very way of life?
Foresees Huge Task.
you are not fulfilling your jobs
unless each of you contributes now
to this colossal task" he continued
in his prepared address.
Malott said the United States was
faced with a choice of unpleasant
observation-disclosures victory, for
which the country is in no manner
prepared, or the discomforts of a
war economy.
Tine American people as whole
have not faced this" he continued
And If it is not faced promptly il
may be too late"
Association officials said they ex-
pected approximately 5000 bankers
from all sections of the country to
register for the convention, which
will continue through Thursday.
Separate sessions will be held fol
the State bank division of the asso-
citation and for the national bank
division, the savings division and
the trust division.
Plans also were made for round
table discussions on public relations
bank management, defense flnanc-
ing and current economic problems
Nader Gives Address.
In another address prepared fol
the opening sessions, DR.. Marcu!
Nader. professor of finance at New
York University, said the Nation!
banking system faced not only tht
problem of aiding the Government
in its defense effort, but also il
placing itself in such a strong posi-
ton that when the war is over i
might be able to meet any situation
arising.
He recommended that banks con
tinue to stimulate savings, refus,
credit to those who speculate, de
cline to grant mortgage loans fo
the erection of new buildings whel
they might conflict with defens
needs, and handle investments s
they would not compete with Gov
eminent financing.

Easing Of Restraints
On Business Urged
By Bank Magazine
Less Concentration
Of Details in D. 6.
Is Proposed
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-ReStraints
on business resulting from the ma
tional emergency could be eased by
less concentration of details in
Washington, less thinking in terms
of scarcity and more f1exibility in
price and rationing controls to avoid
damage to non-defense business,
the American Bankers Association
said today in It's official publication,
Banking.
Contending the emergency au-
thority in Washington should be
centered more definitely in one per-
son and place, the article continued:
"Of equal Importance is the de-
Capitalization of authority with re-
gard to smaller businesses and
smaller decisions Something in
this direction should be done soon
for the relief of thousands of estab-
lishments which must now handle
their most urgent problems by let
ter, telegraph or telephone conver-
sation with harried ofncials In order
to get decisions.
Next on the list Of handicaps Is
the persistence of a psychology OF
scarcity, a legacy from the '30s.
Without believing in miracles there
should be more thinking in terms OF
plenty and how to produce more
goods essential to defense and non-
defense purposes alike. 1t should be
a cardinal principle of the defense
program that plants which cannot
be used for defense production
should continue to produce goods
for civilian use.
There will be real gains to the
general ends of the defense pro-
gram by making every effort to
maintain the supply Of non-defense
goods, because if there were plenty
of the latter there would be less
present concern about imitation"
Banking's cross index of business
conditions, based on poll of 5000
bank directors and presidents in all
parts of the United States, was un-
changed from last month. Seventy
eight per cent of those polled said
the volume of business activity was
increasing, II per cent reported con-
ditions as static and per cent noted
a decline.

Auto Chiefs 10 Need
More Arms Orders
To Keep Busy
Deliveries Are Speeded
On Large Portion Of
Present BoekIoss
By DAVID ]. WILKIE.

DETROIT, Sept. 29.-Defense
contracts assigned to the Nations
automotive industry now total close
to So 5000 100000 but deliveries al
ready are under way on a large
portion of the total and the indus
try needs huge additional orders if
1t is to avoid serious unemployment
during the next to 10 months.
This is the assertion of leading
car and automobile parts manu-
facturers after surveying normal
employment potentialities under the
program looking to a so per cent
curtailment in vehicle production
during the 1912 model year. If the
cut in passenger vehicle output is
extended further as has been limited
by representative of the Office of
Production Management the tenn
porary diSlocation of workers will
be even more widespread industry
spoxesmen believe.
The automobile factories have
been getting under way slowly on
their 1912 model output, but al
ready have passed in volume the
comparable period of last year and
are approaching the level indicated
as an average for the manufacture
of 1,015000 passenger units during
the first five months of the new
model year. That is the total au-
thorized by the o. P. M.
Last weeks output of 1885 cars
and trucks, announced by Wards
Reports, Inc, brought the indicated
volume for September to 10000 and
the aggregate for the first two
months of the 1912 model year to
approximately 4l3,000. This COM
pares with 374,449 cars and trucks
assembled in the first two months
of the 1941 model year. From this
point on, however, the monthly out
put will show a marked drop from
the comparable period a year ago.
Trade paper surveys indicate that
every producer has stepped up
schedules on passenger output
and while there were some reports
of delays again in parts deliveries,
several companies already are at
the top of their allotted output pro-
grams.

Chicago Grain
Nv the Associated Press


CHICAGO, Sept. 29-Continuing
the creeping rally of the past week
or so, wheat prices today chalked
up new gains of a cent bushel,
reaching the highest level in more
than two weeks and coming within
about 2 cents of the four-year peaks
established on September IL.
Lacking new developments on
which to base purchases, most
traders attributed the markets con-
tinued strength to fundamental
trade factors, including the Govern
ment loan program, producers hold
ing of large supplies from COM
mercial channels and wartime
psychology. Gains of cotton and
soybeans stimulated some buying of
grains and mills also we're reported
in the market.

maximum gains, but wheat closed
