e? PRONPT PASSAGE OR FINANCE BODY BILL IS URGED IN SENATE Committee Says **Country Is] Eager For Speedy Enact-: ment of Measure Washington, Jan. 6—(%)—Prompt enactment of the reconstruction fi- nance corporation bill was urged in a|| formal report on the measure Wed- nesday by the senate banking com- mittee. ‘ “It may be stated conservatively,” the report said, “that the piste as represented by its most eminent bec hrsareed ray financial lead- » is eager for mpt enact~ ment of this bill. pe “There is substantial agreement among those who have been consulted that some step for the consolidation of efforts and the reestablishment of confidence in the underlying founda- tions of business and finance is abso- Jutely essential. 3 “Moreover, unless the machinéry provided by the bill can be set in mo- tion without loss of time, the oppor-' tunity for good, which might other- wise be accomplished, will inevitably. be sacrificed and the aid, when offer- baat3 made available, nay come too fate.” The legislation—would create a re- construction firiance corporation able to put two billions of credit into the toughest spots of the country’s eco- nomic machinery. An almost identical bill was going through final commit- tee stages in the house, with a report due Friday. Prospects were that few days would elapse before the treasury would be empowered to set up the ccrporation with $500,000,000 of gov- ernment capital to start off. As reported to the senate, however, the bill contained amendments from the original administration draft. There was assurance the adminis- tration was satisfied with the present draft. Senator Walcott of Connecti-| cut, its author, said he felt sure the president would be pleased with it. The report said the total assets of banks which failed since October, 1929, amounted to more than $2,000,- 000,000. Senator Walcott, Republican, Con- necticut, author of the bill, said “many banks now in danger are not members of the federal reserve sys- tem. Other institutions, although members, have no paper. eligible for discount in the federal reserve, and hence are in no position to apply for aid. j “Still other institutions have found their assets 80 greatly impaired through the depreciation of their market value that their capital has been practically exhausted. “The new construction corporation now proposed will be free from most of the conventional restrictions upon lending, and wisely managed, should be able to rescue.many situations #which- will. grow rapidly “worse.” Lion Volleyball Team Beaten by Rotarians Members of the Rotary club volley- ball team Tuesday evening won & match from the Lions Hep aggrega- tion by winning three of four games at the World War Memorial building, according to John W.
