E CHARGES AROUS FINANCIAL CIRCLES "Comptroller ot the currency John Skelton Williams has created a disturbance in - financial , circles by nla charges that th $sew Tork banks, have been exacting excessive interest, which, of course, the bank ers have t promptly denied," aays Walter B. Brown, editor of the New York CommerciaL The merits of the : contrtiverBy, if how ever, are rather overifhadowed by the larg-e controversy between th two groups of Washington" officials, who have been at odds for some ; time as .to the better' method of restorinie th financial equilibrium-, i Governor Harding' of . the federal "re serve board and his colleaSTues tnereon have adopted the . policy of a curtail ment of credit for non-essentials, for the purpose of causing; a liquidation Of Commodities, and bringing: prices down to something like a normal basis. The other group. - as represented by John Skelton Williams, takes the ground that Interest can be reduced, capital made easiry obtainable and production stimu lated to meet the demand. - - "It is easy enough to declare" that capital should be made cheap and easily obtainable, but the point is, where is It to come from? Interest rates are high now because- the demand is greater than the supply, for money Is a com modity Just like everything; else. If bankers have charged. high interest rates it has been because the supply of money offering- at the time was not equal to th demand, for borrowers would not pay more in one place for money than they could get it for in another." .,; y;:v.

The same kind of Selling : that ' . was . apparent ' when the banks inaugurated their credit restric tion plan early in the - year haft been resumed by corporations and this time Is not confined to the smaller merchants and manufacturers, : but appears to In elude both. the large and small concerns.
