BANKS PROMISE
Hugh Johnson Reports Much
Encouragement in big
Employment Drive
Borrowing Held Justified
By Objectives, Avers
National Leader
WASHINGTON., July 29.
(AP) Hugh S. Johnson came
back to Washington today with a
code for the automobile Indus
try and predicted a full measure
of success for President Roose
velt's reemployment campaign.
Striking tack Into the work
of directing the recovery move
ment, the administrator waded
through reports from postmasters
and commerce department offic
ials throughout the nation be
fore making his prediction. The
reports showed that scores of
thousands of employes were cov
ered already by blanket agree
ments promising higher wages
and shorter working hours to
spread employment.
Meanwhile, to the administra
tor came a. pledge from 11 of
New York city's largest banks
to do their part In expanding
credit to finance an Increase In
trade.
Asserting the objectives of the
recovery program "Justify all the
support that can be given to
them by the banis," the letter
said:
Production Loans
Deemed Justified
"Loans made in connection
with the Industrial recovery pro
gram may be likened to seasonal
loans. They will be made for
the financing of the production
of Inventory, the liquidation of
which the success of the presi
dent's plan would Insure.
"Such loans should be granted,
of course, only where the credit
of the borrower Justifies it, and
such a loan must be considered
on Its own merits, but all loan
aplicatlons which pass the ordin
ary banking requirements should,
and undoubtedly will have, sym
pathetic consideration from
banks."
The action of the metropoli
tan Institutions was interpreted
by officials as the beginning of
a general movement throughout
the country to make finances
available.
xtnrm im net ns was given the
movement by a letter circulated
by Mrs. Grace Morrison Poole,
president of the General Federa
tion of women a ciuds. urgms
all members not to patronize, as
fax as nosslble, establishments
"who 1 seek a temporary advan
tage by failing to sign the Presi
dent's reemployment agreement.'
