Swing 10 Washington
As World Bank Site
Seen al Savannah
BY the Asseeiussd Prsss

SAVANNAH, Mar. 1.-THE Boards
Of Governors Of the World Bank and
Fund headed into their first meeting
today, and some clue was expected
to emerge as to a decision on 4
British VS.. American struggle over 4
site for the two institutions.
Secretary of the Treasury Vinson,
head Of the United States delegation
and temporary chairman Of the IN
ternational Monetary Conference,
told reporters he expected to "have
something to say" on the site issue
after the board session.
The American delegation is boost
ing Washington while Britain and
Canada are leaders of a campaign
for New York. A swing toward
Washington developed among other
delegations yesterday after the
American group, in a caucus, laid
out firmly phrased policy in favor
of the Capital.
Controversy Grows Warm.
The British object to locating the
twin institutions in the shadow of
the United States Government and
Congress. They hold that New York
as a center Of world finance is the
logical choice. The Americans argue
that such q decision would bring
the fund and bank too close to the
influence of big banking houses,
and that they should be close to the
American seat of government, where
many Of the major decisions would
ultimately be made.
So hot was the backstage con-
troversy, however, that one Ameri-
can delegate advised reporters not
to rule out Philadelphia as possible
compromise choice,
The meeting Of the Boards of
Governors will be closed to the press,
Secretary Vinson said, because lit
is business meeting, like the meet
ing of the board of directors of any
bank"
He promised to meet reporters
shortly after the session, however.
The boards, whose membership is
overlapping since most countries
have named the same governor for
the bank as for the fund, were to
receive at their first formal gather
ing the reports of the Conference
Credentials, Nominating and Agen-
da Committees.
United States Shifting Policy.
The chance that the Remember
American delegation might make a
bid for presidency of the Interna-
tional Bank for Reconstruction and
Development-instead of its sister
organization, the International
Monetary Fund was reported
strengthening.
Several American delegates re-
ported this shift of policy. 1t is
based, they said, on the feeling that
the 50, ,100, 900 900 bank will prove to
be the more important of the two
agencies in world economic stabili-
Zation.
In addition, it is felt by some that
when the bank reaches the critical
stage-expected next fall-of Offer
ing bond issues to investors, Ameri-
can buyers will take more kindly
to them II an American is guiding
the lending of bank funds to for
eign countries.
A successful first f1otation of
bonds, it is argued, would do much
to set the bank OF on successful
career. Function of the bank is
to provide loans, or guarantee pri-
vate loans, to stimulate productivity
of war-weakened countries and to
build up countries which have Jagged
in industrial development.
