Wall Street Bank Examiners Notified to Ease Up on Their Requirements. —BY RALPH HEM)ER>HOI Tlb'i Special Financial Writer I
DISPATCHES from Washington this week confirm the general Impression held previously that the meeting of bank examiners with the heads of the treasury department. the federal reserve board and other government agencies interested in banking was for the purpose of getting the examiners to ease up
on their requirements in order to facilitate the exte n s ion of credit to industry. P. M. Law. pres ident of the American Bankers Association. appeared before the meeting and outlined the position of
flendershot
the bankers. He revealed the inconsistency of some agencies ol the government urging the banks to grant more liberal loans, while other agencies were pressing the banks to dispose of so-called slow loans. Ail were in agreement that the banks had a logical complaint. In all probaility the facts brnugnt out at the meeting were predetermined and intended primarily for the public and the examiners. It seems certain that the examiners will be told that they have been too severe in their requirements and that in the interest of business recovery they should take a more liberal attitude. a m • SUCH instructions might lead to carelessness in the future in bank examinations. The examiners might feel that the government Is behind thrm and would be in no position to criticise if they became slack. Such an attitude might defeat the purpose of bank examinations and in the end could lead to another wave of distrust of banks if carried to extremes. The other side of the picture, however, and the one the government undoubtedly is looking at is the tendency on the part of bank examiners to permit loans which are really doubtful in times of prosperity merely because they appear safe and to put on the screws in periods of depression for the reason that debtors are slow in meeting their payments. An upturn in business undoubtedly would make all the difference in the world in the case of most loans which now are regarded as doubtful. n u a THE implication in Washington dispatches dealing with exchanges between Joseph P. Kennedy, SEC chairman, and Eugene E. Thompson, president of the Associated Stock Exchanges, is that the officials of some corporations have been looking seriously toward the over-the-counter market as a possible avenue of escape from the regulations to be imposed upon security trading in the organized exchanges. The over-the-counter market has been viewed, it is stated, as possibly offering • advantages.” Since the new deal's aim toward security trading is avowedly that of safeguarding the interests of investors, i the public may have difficulty in in- j terpretmg this desire of some corporations to preserve “advantages” for their securities. It might easily have been suspected. however, as now develops to be the case, that federal administration has no intention to ignore the over-the-counter market in its program to safeguard investors. The SEC intends to watch both the byways and the highways.

Iron and Steel Bookings Increase During Week
Production Rate in Metal Plants Climbs Half Point. By Times Special * * CHICAGO, Sept. 14.—Moderate expansion in iron and steel bookings during the week, especially from miscellaneous sources, is reported in Iron Age, industrial periodical. Rate of production in steel plants has risen a half point from the average of the last two weeks to 19 % per cent of productive capacity. However, as yet there is no indication of a definite upward trend, according to the magazine. The slight gain in output resulted from increases of two points to 11 per cent of capacity at Pittsburgh, three to twenty-three in the valleys and one to twenty-four at Chicago. These were largely offset by losses of eleven points to 15 per cent at Cleveland, three to twenty-one in the Wheeling district and two to sixteen in the Philadelphia area. There still is extreme caution in replenishment buying, despite growing evidence of depletion of consumer stacks. This-hesitation is attributed to business uncertainty and the protection against price advances under the code, the magazine states. The industry principally is reliant upon the construction business, and this still is sustained by federal expenditure. Among the government sponsored projects is the 1.000-mile long and 100-mile wide shelter belt to extend from Canada to the Mexican border, which will call for the purchase of approximately 100.000 miles of wire fencing, consisting of 165.000 tons of steel, by the forest service of the department of agriculture. Operations in tin plate continue at a strong 40 per cent of capacity, being upheld by orders .from South America and the Orient, Iron Age asserts. Funds of the public works administration have been allocated to the Lehigh Valley railroad for the construction of 1,900 freight cars in its own shops and the purchase of three Diesel electric switching locomotives. Pennsylvania railroad is in the market for ten to fifty electric locomotives.

MAJOR GRAINS 1 DISPLAY FIRM TRADING RANGE
Corn, Oats and Rye Decline Fractionally; Foreign Prices Rise. BY HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Prr* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Sept. 14. Wheat prices at the opening of the Chicago Board of Trade today were steadied by relative firmness in foreign terminals. Other grains here took to the off side. Wheat started unchanged to cent higher, corn was unchanged to off % cent, oats were ’s to ‘g cent off and rye was unchanged to off % cent. Liverpool and Rotterdam reported rather firm markets at the start. Buying in wheat here, however, was light with most traders hanging to the sidelines to await developments. The trade was concerned with reports of sleet and snow in Canada, where harvest was said to have been tempararily halted. Chicago Futures Range —Sept. 14— Prev. Wheat— Hirh. Low. IP PO. Clof*.
