WASHINGTON, D. C.. Oct. 34. The advance publicity work be tween the Dew dealers and the con ventlon of Amer ican bankers here was so per lectly harmon ious that skep tics have been going around saying there must have been a deal. That la a rath er harsh thing to say. Alter all, harmony can be achieved without pre- arrangement. The dove oi 4 peace has on previous occasions been conceived by spontaneous com bustion, although It Is supposed to be an extremely difficult process among persons' who regard each other in such distant relationship as existed between the new dealers and bankers. The new dealers started It by let ting the news slip out unofficially that It was against a central bank. That story came two days before the . bankers were to assemble. Al most simultaneously there came an official new deal announcement that the sliver seigniorage profit In the treasury was being frozen, that it was not to be used now In an Inflationary way. Consideration On Conven tion Floor Due Tomorrow St. Louis Gets 1935 Conclave For Big Navy. IE nnnfn IN FflroBEl Railroad Retirement Law Is Declared Invalid ram toauon If there Is one thing the bankers fear more than monetary Inflation It Is a central bank. These two sub jects together certainly represent 60 per cent of all banking fears. In re sponse, the leading officials of the ABA stepped right out and flung a few posies back at the new deal. , They said they did not fear Presl- dent Roosevelt very much, and that the new dealers apparently were not - such bad , fellow after, all. It made the bankers' convention feel as welcome In Washington as If Mr. Roosevelt has gone out to meet the delegates with a brass band. Regardless of how It all came about, all the wisest new dealers and bankers were very glad It hap pened. There has been too much misunderstanding on both sides. As a matter of fact, the central bank Idea Itself was a misunderstanding. A few wide-eyed new dealers starteo about a year ago to talk up the Idea. No responsible official here ever Indorsed It or seriously enter tained it. Fully a month before the bankers' convention opened, respon. slble treasury officials decided to amend the federal reserve act in order to accomplish stronger central credit control, rather than to try to create a central bank. It was carried In this column at the time. Likewise there was nothing new in the announcement about freez i lng the sliver seigniorage profit. That hss been done right along. 83, what really happened was that the new dealers struck down two dead ghosts to calm the bankers. There Is Rolng to be more of that sort of thing In relation to busi ness generally. Tou might call it "laying the ghosts of business fears.' MIAMI, Pla., Oct. 34. (AP) Im mediate cash payment by the gov- iernment of the soldier bonus at face value was recommended In a resolution adopted today by the American Legion legislative committee. Only two dissenting vote were cast. Kay Kelly of Detroit, chairman or the committee, said no minority reportwould be submitted when the matter formally Is presented on the convention floor, probably tomorrow. Long Debate Looms Debate on any one question has been limited by the rules commit tee to two hours. However, the bonus Issue, most controversial ot the convention, probably will be given greater time, with various angles of the question being brought up as separate issues. The convention adopted a report of its time and place committee awarding the 1935 convention to St. Louis. Mayor Bernard F. Dlckmann or St. Louis personally extended an In vitation from his city and handed over a $25,000 check "In good faith." Without discussion or a dissenting vote, the convention adopted a re port of Its national defense com mittee recommending Increasing the standing army to 14,000 officers and 165,000 men. Air Merger Opposed Consolidation of the army, navy and marine corps air services was opposed in the report. Construction of an American navy to full treaty strength was advo cated. The report proposed a National Guard strength of 310.000,-a reserve officers corps of 120,000 men. and necessary appropriations to provide 30,000 men with reserve corps train ing during the next fiscal year. Merriam Leads In Straw Vote For Governor NEW YORK, Oct. 24. First re turns from six scattered cities in the Literary Digest's poll for gov ernor of California gave Frank F.

LEADER SAYS MEMBERS HILLAH SHRINERS TO E Storm Hurls Seas Against Seattle Homes This trend was suggested also by the result of a conference recently held at the White House by a new deal critic. The report may not ac curately relate all that went on. but. In essence. It appears to be significantly trustworthy. The critic la nationally known for brilliant comments about some phases of the reform program. He Is supposed to have insisted bluntly fhat he could never agree with the administration until something more wa done to bring the budget Into reasonable balance, to clear up money uncer tainty by some steps toward stabil ization, and to appease business un certainty by NRA reorganisation, r That was a large order. The critic Is supposed to hare agreed It couia not be accomplished for some time, even if Mr. Roosevelt set out now to do the Job. The upshot of the ensuing dis cussion was that the critic said he would give the administration a chance to prove itself along the lines Indicated. At least that U the way his friends put it. Another thing recommended by the new deal critic was the release of Agriculture Secretary Wallace. He received no encouragement on that score. WASHINGTON, Oct. 34. (AP) The nation's bankers were asked by the Roosevelt administration today to lend more liberally even to i-he extent of making "loans they would not ordinarily wish to make" and "loans that will need to be Indulged." Jesse H. Jones, chairman of the Reconstruction Finance corporation, which was organized to save banks and businesses earlier In the depres sion, made this plea before the Amer ican Bankers association convention. Though bankera say they have been eager to lend. Jones declared there was "Indisputable evidence they have not done so as freely as they could."

(AP) The railroad retirement law enacted at the last session of congress was held unconstitutional today by Jus tice Alfred A. Wheat In the District of Columbia supreme court. The ruling was banded down In a suit brought In August by the Amer ican Railway association on behalf of more than 160 carriers. The roads contended the law vio lated the commerce clause of the con stitution and the fifth amendment prohibiting the taking of property without due process of law. They asked a temporary Injunction to prevent the retirement board from beginning administration of the law, but this was denied August IB. The next dav the retirement board ordered all class one roads to pay Immediately one-tenth of ono per cent of their pay rolls Into the pen sion fund. The assessment amounted to 133, 000. This decision makes ths first de feat for the administration In a suit brought In this Jurisdiction to teat the constitutionality of the legislation. After a general discussion of ths purposes of the act, Chief Justice Wheat's opinion said: "When the act Is examined In de tail, however. I find It contains pro visions, which, In my opinion, were beyond the power of congress and wheh render it unconstitutional. In the first place, the act Is un constitutional because It extends Its provisions to persons not engaged In interstate commerce." MELBOURNE WAITS A Jury in Justlc of the Pac Wll Ham R.
