II' Bankers Score Comptroller for Recent Attacks .,1 Resolution Deprecates "Dan- gerous Attacks" by Untamed i Individuals on the Credit Structure of Country.' Washington. Oct. 22. Discussion hy the American Bankers' associa tion of criticisms leveled recently at certain New York banks by Comp Ixolter of Currency Williams culmin ate'd today in the adoption of a re t. ' port of the association' resolutions committee condemning "dangerous attacks" by unnamed individuals on the credit structure of the country. Presentation of the report brought cm a heated discussion. Several members maintained that the con tention itself' was not interested in the controversy which has grown Tout of Comptroller Williams' charge that certain bankers had received inordinate rates of interest on call -,Joans. ' ft The resolutions committee report j expressed complete approval of the federal reserve system; condemned i any effort to use the government ,'funds cr forces to arbitrarily hold up or to force down prices or other wise "to interfere with normal eco nomic influences;" recommended the elimination of the excess profits tax ' as unequitable and of the surplus tax ' because "it acts as a brake on pro duction," and pledged the efforts of the members toward the opening of foreign markets through extension of long term credits or other means. Scores Government Control. The report condemned "specula tive hoarding" in agriculture or other industries, renewed the rcc ' ommendation for a national budget system and expressed the associa tion's complete disapproval of na tionalization of industry, particularly as contemplated by the Plumb plan. - The " association, . through adop tion of resolutions, went on record ., as opposing "further participation of ' .thegovernment in business enter prises," and referred to the alleged extravagant losses resulting from . government operation yof railroads. Without referring; to the charges j.C'E Comptroller Williams directly, .. the report of tie resolutions com--.nnttce said: Must Have Confidence. -';. "n 'this 'hour (' when 'the. element i;vof confidence is so vital in stabiliz ?',ing and sustaining business condi S tions, we deplore utterances which jJ without warrant, of fact,, challenge pfhe integrity of iAmerfcajS bankers tas a whole and call into , question j their motives and practices in the ' conduct of their business. Criticism based on harmful generalizing . is most unjust and misleading. ' "The inevitable effect of such ..' broad and unfounded statements is to create false. inferences . .. '-, -' ? and in extreme instances to breed violence of actions and dangerous , disturbances in the public mind. ' "If such i. misleading influences, should be made-for personal profit or gratification, they cannot be too severely denounced as outrages against Ihe public interest. The delicacy f the credit structure of the country cannot safely stand such violent handling."
