BANKERS PLEDGE SUPPORT, CHEER CRITIC'S SPEECH

N ATION AL CONVENTION OF ASS(>( I ATION ( LOSES AT WASHINGTON WASHINGTON, Oct. 26. — The American Bankers Association closed its annual convention here Thursday by mixing a pledge to co-operate with the administration and a round of ringing applause for a speech severely criticising some of the Roosevelt policies. At the same time, the association's formal resolutions called for a balanced budget "at the earliest possible ditto,” and set forth a "conviction” that such notion constituted "the cornerstone of sound financial policy, whether public or private.” A standing ovation greeted an address by David Lawrence, editor of the United States News, striking directly at the "brain trust” as lacking practicality, asserting the administration's creed was “to the victor belongs the spoUs," and calling for a fight "hack home" against encroarhments upon individual liberty. Meanwhile, the association’s economic policy commission presented a report saying the biggest present hanking piohlem was that of finding "willing borrowers.” It asserted the time had arrived when "good banking must perforce he courageous banking.” Rudolf S. Heeht, newly-elected president .asked the delegates, In a brief installation address, to have faith in the leadership of the president and assured the chief executive that the “hanker will play his part on the all-American team, pledging the best efforts of heart, and mind.” His reference was to Mr. Roosevelt's address of last night, calling upon all groups of American economic life to line up together in a concerted effort to restore normal, prosperous business renditions and challenging the bankers to fullfill their responsibility for supplying the nation's credit needs. Throughout the convention, while speakers have hammered away at Rosevelt recovery methods, the offirers of the association have denied j charges of non-cooperation and have worked toward a moderate, friendly ' tone In the formally adopted resolu-j Hons.

Onr treasurer, who you all know, Could not he spared for she's got the dough. The secretary, a mother of three, Was just as loyal as she could he.
