In an interview Richard S. Hawes, first vice-president of the Associa- tion, said: “Strange as it may seem that al- though the bankers of America are the men who finance business and are trustees of the savings of the work- ing classes and the bulwark of the industrial progress of the country,/ Washington authorities did. not deem it wise to invite the: great’ American Bankers’ Association to appoint dele- gates to the industrial conference to be held at Washington on October 6. “The association, composed as it is of about 20,600 banks out of the 30,- 000 banks of the United States, repre- senting a personnel of the most prom- inent financiers of America, estimated to be in excess of 500,000 men, cer-| BANK CONVENTION |v should demand a voice in a settlement of the delicate problem of pie relations between labor and capl- tal.” , A.
