ing credit strain. He was said to
feel that credit restriction has been
lessening steadily since June, but
that this movement could be speed
ed up.
The second object in Mr. Hoover's
mind for the meeting was described
as tho development of plans by
which the business and Industrial
committees from each federal reserve
district, which will take part, can
spread employment not only by
shortening working hours but also
by speeding business activity.
Tho president was said to feel that
some misunderstanding has devel
oped concerning the nature of the
conferenco since leaders of various
rtiu$incss fcroujis ' Hjave -sbvht 'rep
resentation siT the 'conference. Mr.
Hoover was said to desire that the
gathering attack a limited field
rather than the entire economic sit
uation, with labor and- agricultural
organizations coming In for later
attention.
Therefore attendance has been
limited to members of the business
and Industrial committees, comprised
of outstanding men in each of the
federal reserve dlstricts.r,..-

(Contlnucd From Page Three)
r The administration, which had op
pose the publicity, - maintained . a
watchful attitude, fully ready to
blame the Democratic control of the
house for the legislation if bad re
sults should follow.
The report given out yesterdoy, cov
ering the brief period from July 21
when the relief bill became law, to
August 1, showed 437 loans totaling
$45,057,556, of which $32,900,180 was
to banks.
A quick denial by the Bank or Am
erica National Trust and Savings as
sociation at San Francisco that It had
received $3,800,000 listed as a loan
made to It, drew attention to a dis
closure by the report that loans to
taling $223,862,500 have been author
ized but not drawn upon by the bor
rowers. This figure Is for the entire
period Blnce the corporation began
functioning. ' t
Of the total, banka and trust com
panies were debited with $118,681,610
which they had not found It neces
sary to draw from the reconstruction
finance corporation. The big Call
fornia bank, through A. P. Glannlni,
chairman of the board, said that since
application for the loan wa3 made
"conditions changed for the better
and we decided we did not need the
money."
It appeared likely many other banks
had decided similarly. Of the remain.
lng money undrawn, such was allotted
to railroads which receive it only as
needed for retirement of bond issues
or expenditures for improvements.

zona and other states and finally on ,
a small Island near Juneau, Alaska,
and alio stated that the Indians
showed a much higher Intelligence
than tho mountaineers. She de
scribed their living conditions as al
most unbearable and tho many gen
erations that havo lived in the back
woods with no Introduction of new
blood havo made them a very primi
tive people. Superstitions, feuds and
lawlessness abound and their meagre
diet or com bread, brown beans and
sorghum has developed an emaciated
raco or people. Tho school in which
Mrs. Cox served as principal had
about 60 pupils ranging from six to
25 years of age. The work was great
ly handicapped by a lack of books
and the school, which has been sup
ported by voluntary contributions,
will not open this rail because of a
lack or runds. Her talk called forth

illiteracy could exist within so lew
miles of the national capltol. An
other feature of the league program

GIBRALTAR,, Aug. 23 (P) Five
young landlubbers, all undergraduates
of Princeton university, have conquer
ed the Atlantic In a two-master in 49
days despite storm and calm.
The adventure began In New York
July 3, and will end, for the time be

craft reaches there.
Tho venturesome team Jost five

days in various spots of dead calm.
They aro: Wiillam Drowrey, New York;
William L. Crow, New York; Standish
Backus. Detroit; Ashley Hardy. Bos

Hero Is the story or the adventure
from Drewrcy;
Wo sailed from New York July 28,
leaving for Tanglcra July 31, and ar
riving there August 10. Wo reached
Gibraltar Saturday for provisions.
"Although wo were inexperienced
when we started tho cruiso, wo had
no trouble navigating our ketch, the
Stortebcckcr, after the first few days.
"A gale struck us on tho rourth
day aftor quitting Marblehead, and we
had to hoavo to and drop tho Boa
anchor ror 18 hours. Two days later
wo encountered a storm which carried
away rive sails, and held U3 up for
five days.
"In all that blow, our 21-ton crart
was never In danger of sinking.
"We met plenty of headwinds, but
the so-called 'prevailing southwest
winds' wore conspicuously absent.
Wo ulso encountered mnny calms, to
taling about 14 days. These wo spent
swimming, reading, playing games,
and listening to radio concerts.
"Artcr leaving the Azores, wo hailed
the British steamer 'Paciric Pres.:
dent and went alongside to check our
navigation position."
Tho vessel sailed yesterday for Mal
aga. Spain. It will follow tho coast
to Marseilles, where tho craft will
cither be sold or stored until next
