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."
