annual conclave.
Today's program was devoted to
the savings' division of the asso
ciation and the general session will
open tomorrow.
Problems discussed by speakers
at the session today were devoted
principally to the lowering Interest
rate on loans and the problem of
meeting interest payment on de
posits. P. D. Houston, chairman of the
board of the American National
bank. Nashville. Tenn., urged greater
liberality by bankers.
"Bankers in their loan policies
must not become too conservative."
he warned. "Our conservatism should
be tempered with some liberality. It
it likely that the experiences of re
cent years may have caused us to be
scmewhat over-conservative, and if
such be the case. It Is but a natural
consequence. We should be Inter
ested In making productive loans,
and. therefore, the purposes for
which a loan is sought should be
given consideration along with the
security that is offered. A loan may
be well and fully secured and yet not
necessarily be a desirable loan for
our bank."
J. Harvle Wilkinson, Jr.. vice-
president of the State-Planters
Bank and Trust company, Rlcn
mond. Va predicted that "Interest
rates within the next two years will
average a somewhat higher figure

CARSON TALKS
ON ESSENTIALS
OF PROSPERITY
The road to prosperity In Oregon
Ilea in getting out of debt and stay
ing out. cleansing politics of falsa
prophets, not being taxed out of ex
istence and a militant and intelli
gent citizenry. Joseph K. Carson,
mayor of Portland, declared at tha
first chamber of commerce lunch
eon of the season today noon. Ha
urged long-range thinking and not
trumped up Issues of bunk and ho
kum with building and development
In an orderly manner.
Development must be along the
line of a systematic exploitation of
resources for the benefit of the na
tion as a whole instead of the cit
izenry spending most of Its time
eternally dealing with the ne'er do
well and crockpot advocating fool
and freak laws. It is Impossible to
escape honest labor and enterprise
which Is the first law of nature,
Mayor Carson added.
California Is determined that the
rate for power from Bonneville dis
tributed in Portland 40 miles away
shall not be lower than the rate
from the Boulder dam, over 300
mllea from Los Angeles," Mayor
Carson said. "That state does not
want the northwest to have any ad
vantage that might lead to its In
dustrial development." He called
attention to the group that Is seek
ing to have the direction of Bonne
ville In charge of Senator Bone, of
Washington.
"We find adelpates and crack-
brains trying to get into politics at
public expense and threatening
those who have built up a business
to attain success. They eternally
seek to fasten debt upon the state
which creates a heavy Interest pay
ment. These same people would not
know a kllowat from a mixed
drink." he aald, "yet these blab-
mouth politicians would seek to tell
the state how to carry on." Human
ity must pay in human effort for
whatever It gets, Mayor Chrson said
in closing.
Accompanying Mayor Carson
from Portland were City Commis
sioner Earl Riley, City Attorney
Frank Grant and City Treasurer
William Adams. A group of Port
land realtora, here for the meeting
tonight, were also introduced.
