A spokesman for state bank
Ing commissioners and super
lntendents called on Congress
today for a full-scale study Of
the dual banking system and
new legislation to clarity juris-
dictional lines between National
and state-chartered institu-
tions.
Addressing the Georgia
Bankers Association at Atlanta
Hollis w. Burt, executive vice
president of the National AsSo-
citation of State Bank Supervi-
sors, urged Congress to "set
down the meaning Of the dual
banking system in words that
everyone can understand"
Expressing fear the Federal
government viii move along q
path toward centralized bank

has the authority to call on
impartial experts to spell out q

the power to turn these recon-
mendations into needed legis-

On the SheIf-fo Now

When Congress cuts the link
between silver and our paper

tificates are then switched to
gold-backed Federal Reserve
notes, the 81 bill in your pocket
will be significantly redesigned
for the first time since 1895
Its color, though, will remain
the familiar green, and so will
the color Of all the other de-
nomination bills in use in the
United States.
The drive to print the vari-
Gus denominations of United
States currency in different
colors, which was put into high
gear early in the Kennedy ad-
ministration by his first United
States Treasurer, Elizabeth Ru-
del Smith, has run into such
powerful opposition from with
in the administration itself
that the issue can be con-
sidered shelved.

NICKEL PLATE-N&W
NICKEL PLATE-N&W
Railroad Merger Is Favored
By the Associated Press

Another big railroad merger
the Nickel Plate with the
Norfolk & Western-was rec
o1nmended yesterday by an
Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion hearing examiner.
If the ICC accepts the find
ings Of its examiner. Lester r.
Conley, this will be another
major step in the industry's ef-
forts to compress into three
huge railroad systems all the
big lines that serve the popu-
lous, industrialized East.
The commission approved
last December 81 an applica-
ton for the Chesapeake & Ohio
Railway to acquire control Of
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad.
That was consummated Febru-
ary 4 but the Justice Depart
ment has been fighting it in
the courts.
Still In the public hearing
stage before ICC examiners
With no end yet in Sights a
proposal to merge the Pennsyl-
vania and the New York Cen
trail railroads.
kMr. Conley tied a major con-
dition to his recommendation.
He said the Pennsylvania
slould be required TO cut itself
loose from financial interests
10 both the Nickel Plate and
Tie nav.
THE Pennsylvania already
has indicated Its willingness to
put its stock In the other rail-
roads under O trusteeship,
thereby giving up Its voice in
the affairs Of the lines. This is
predicated. however. on ulti-
mate approval Of the Pennsyl-
vania-New York Central merg-
er.
The Gao -B&o and Pennsyl-
yania-New York Central merg-
ers involve one sound line try
ing to rescue q somewhat shaky
one. But the Nickel Plate and
N&W are financially sound and
tran into less opposition than
the other mergers.
Eventually, II the three BIG
mergers become q reality. 1t "a
foreseen that smaller lines
among the 35 scattered from
Canada TO Just below the Ma
son-Dixon Line gradually would
be assimilated by the big three
Under the proposal indorsed
by Mr.. Conley. the combined
railroad would lease the Wa
bash for 55 years. A proposal
for stock control Of the wabash

VEPCO Holders Vote
Split in Common

Stockholders Of Virginia Elec-

approved a 3-for-2 stock split,
which will increase company
stock to 22,365,000 shares.
The split will become ef-
fective April 26, A. H.

nounced.
Stock certificates represent
ing one additional share for

close on April 26 and checks

terest will be mailed around

Directors set 20 cents a share
as the initial quarterly dividend
on the split shares. This in
dicated an annual rate Of S1.Ol
. share on new shares, which
would be equal to $1.56 a share
on old stock or an equivalent
annual increase Of l6 cents a

Major Banking Study Urged

is that it is not truly repre-
sentative Of our banking and
financial economy, and Con-
greSs has not been included in
the framing of these findings" "
Instead, he said, the voice Of
Congress has been that Of q
censor rather than Of a spon-
sor."
Bankers should fashion their
own future rather than submit
to pressure from the Federal
Government to chart a path to-
ward a centralized banking
system, Mr.. Burt continued.
II believe that banking, one
Of the most regulated of indus
tries, needs new laws, basic
rules Of thumb, which define
the jurisdiction Of the regula-
tory bodies" he added, Il be-
lieve that there is a clear and
present need for legislation
spelling out the relationship be-
tween state and nationally
chartered banking and other
competing financial institu-
tions."
IF we are to have a change
in our banking industry, the
legislation bringing about such
a change should originate in
Congress. I am fearful that In
the absence Of such a study the
preSSures and emotions of the
moment may result in halfway
measures, half-truth solutions,
yes-even half-baked ideas"

that differently colored bills
would be very confusing"
So the proposal is shelved
for now. But it was intriguing;
1t still is, and it will not stay
on the shelf.
Ours is the only leading
country In the world which
does not distinguish among de-
nominations of its currency
either by the size of the bills,
the color or both. Canada varies
the appearance of its different
denominations primarily by
color. Britain does 1t by both
the size and appearance of the
denominations. Other countries
do 1t by a combination.
If our currency denomina-
tions were in different colors
1t would make counting and
handling of money much easier,
faster and more convenient. II
would slash the chance Of error
In identifying the denomina-
ton Of a bill. (Who among
you has not lost money by
miStaking a SIS or a $40 for a
81?
When Mrs. Smith assumed
office multi-colored currency
was the major innovation she
urged. and she submitted an
exhaustive report to Treasurey
Secretary Dillon explaining all
aspects Of the change. For a
while 1t seemed highly probably
that the White House would
push the move and Congress
eventually would approve.
But then the opposition came
alive.

tossed out nicknames-"funny
money" Kennedy money" -
and Treasury officials shud-
dered at what other nicknames
might be invented.
Then came Mr.. Holtzclaw's
verdict. AS he put it to me
in an interview, "Multi-color
currency would confuse the
general public. 1t would be dan
gerous, for 1t would encourage
counterfeiting. Today, our cur
rency is the most counterfeit
proof in the world because its
design is so simple and un-
changing"
New Models Prepared
Mr.. Holtzclaw goes along, of
course, with redeSigning the 81
bill when Congress permits the
Treasury to shift the 81 silver
certificate to a gold-backed
Federal Reserve note in order
to free the TreasLry's shrink
ing hoard Of silver for use in
minting coins. AS I reported
yesterday, in anticipation Of
congressional approval. Treas
ury artists and engravers al
ready have hand-tooled four
models Of the new 81 bill for
Mr.. Dillon's consideration. Z
But Mr.. Holtzclaw is a.
staunch opponent Of radical
change in currency. AS one ill.,

proposed that the Mint pro-
duce special notes embossed in

American Telephone an d
Telegraph Co. yesterday opened
its new cable-laying ship for
inspection in Baltimore, label
ing the vessel the most mod
ern Of its kind.
A company spokesman con-
eeded the new transatlantic
cable 1t will lay this summer
may well be the one carrying
President Kennedy's direct
emergency line to the Kremlin.
r The CS (for cable ship
Long Lines docked last week
end in Baltimore after an un-
eventful maiden run from
Hamburg, Germany, where it
was built. Officials gave re-
porters a tour of its decks and
operating quarters before be-
ginning preparations for train
ing runs.
Although details remain to
be worked out for the White
House direct teletypewriter line
to the Kremlin, it's probable
that cable transmission will be
used rather than an alterna-
tive microwave possibility.
Company officials are not
free to say just how a White
House line would be linked
with the Kremlin. but confirm
that existing customers now
use undersea telephone cables
to communicate via teletype-
writer with the continent.
Satellite Tested
Scientists recently demon
strated that such written mes
sages could be transmitted by
bouncing them off a satellite
using microwaves, but the ad-
vantage Of cable transmission
is that it's now q practical
reality.
The administration has ruled
out the use Of direct telephone
conversation with scow,
fearing that possible errors In
translation and transmission
are too hazardous.
Gwen If telephone conversa-
ton were agreed upon, the
Russians undoubtedly would in
sist on cable rather than RADIO
telephone transmission. A cable
conversation is private. but as
one AT&T official explained
yesterday, with radio anybody
can tune In" Premier Khru-
schchev insisted on cable con-
nection to Moscow during his
two visits here.)
The first task Of the Long
Lines will be to unroll $500
miles Of special plastic-coated
1H-inch telephone cable from
Tuckerton. N. j. to Cornwall,
England.

$19 Million Cable Ship to Lay Lines to England
New Wires May Link
White House, KremIin

, Housewives can't expect any
lower rates in calling relatives
or friends in London as a result
of the project, however. An Of
ficial said the line is being laid,
to keep up with demand at q
cost of $50 million plus $19 mil
lion for the ship. In recent
times, overseas phone calls have
been increasing at the rate Of
is per cent a year, a load that
new satellite systems cannot
handle alone.
Capt. James H. Connolly,
skipper Of the Long Lines, said
the ship went through its PAGES
without trouble on the trip
from Europe, despite some
stormy North Atlantic weather.
AT&T already has direct COM
mercial communications now
with Moscow via radio, but Is
awaiting word from both So
Wet and American govern
ments for an arrangement to
set up special messages using
cable, according to C. E. Schoo-
ley, director Of operations for
the company's ''long lines" de-
partment.
-Four Routes
Actually when the new cable
to Cornwall is completed next
october, calls to the continent
might travel over any Of four
routes. The company laid its
first submarine telephone cable
to Great Britain In 1856 and
there are now three in service.
Use Of long wave radio for
transoceanic telephone service
to London dates back to 1927.
One Of the novel aspects of
the ship Is its design to lay the
relatively small diameter. un-
armed cable plus large repeat
ers, all without interruption.
A repeater is a kind of current
booster, shaped like an enlarged
vacuum cleaner tank. One is
attached every 20 miles to am
plify the human voices travelling
along the line.
In previous ships, laying re-
peaters meant slowing or stop
ping the vessel, but the CS Long
Lines pays out the cable and
their life-giving cannisters at
a smooth rate Of 800 feet per
minute witout halting. thanks
to a new type cable engine. The
ship holds 1000 miles Of cable
in one load.
The cable itself is Of new de-
sign and will carry 1913 two-way
conversation at ocean depths.
1t is being manufactured in con-
tinuous 23-mile lengths at a
new plant operated by the Bal
timore works Of Western Elec-
trio Co. on the site Of the old
