THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, APRIL 4, 1914. "'IB POLITICS IN LOCATING BANKS Henry W. Yates Incensed at Action of Committee. BRYAH DONE FOR IN NEBRASKA Vftrnn Financier, Who Labored Dlllrently for (into Cltr, Hitter In CrUlcIam of Ucmocrnlla Plat Attnlnnt Omaha. "Nothing In tho world but politics gov erned the decision by which the federal reserve banks were located," declared Henry W. Yates, president of the Ne braska National bank last night when he heard Of the action of the reserve bank organization committee In naming Min neapolis and Kansas City and putting Omaha In the Kansas City district. ' "It is disgraceful It's an outrage. "In my judgment the outcome will have decided political effect. I can't see any other result but that Mr. Brayn has killed himself In Nebraska. There Is no ques tion but Lincoln was raised up as a candi date for a place to bo knocked down, carrying Omaha with It Ilnnkrrn llcaent It. "Tho result will be, 1 predict, that banks In this territory will tako little In terest In ihi new system and that as far as can be done, the banking business will proceed along Its ordinary channels. Bankers here will make little effort to build up tho new system preferring to let It start upon as smalt a basts as will bo permissible. "We were assured by Secretary Mc Adoo whrif we presented Omaha's case that politics would play no part In' tha locatlon-absolutcly none. Under the law, Omaha was absolutely entitled to bo named. Trade Not Followed. "The usual courses of trade wero to be followed In carrying It out. Wo showed positively the, course of trado from Omaha west to tho Kocky moun tains was cart Into Omaha. The busi ness from tho west Is east by only two railroads that serve both Kansas City and Omaha, and these leave twlco as much freight In Omaha as In Kansas City. Under banking statistics that we presented, Omaha was absolutely entitled to be named. "I believe the decision was entirely ruled by political considerations, "I am positive that both Richmond and Atlanta cannot show tho requisite bank ing strength to justify their selection. And then to think New Orleans on the gulf wan left out and Dallas chosen! Xothlnrc In Common. "Bankers as a whole In the Omaha territory when they know what has been done will bo indignant There . is no cource, of trade from 'Nebraska to Kansas City. The courso- Is almost en tirely Into Chicago. "The commlttco has absolutely gone against the law itself, with a result that will be bad for the Institution and regulation of the new system."
