DELERATES DISCUSS DEBT BANK'S SCOPE Functions, Location and Per- sonnel of Institution Also Are Studied. * By the Associated Press. BADEN-BADEN, Germany, October 8.—Delegates to the conference on the | Bank for International Settlements spent the day in intimate personal talks to determine one another's viewpoint. Despite optimism expressed by the press subcommittee, there apparently were divergencies on the functions and scope of the bank, its locatoin and the per- sonnel and nationality of its executives. ‘The American delegation considers that the question of the bank's scope is paramount. Apparently there are three viewpoints among the delegations: Somewhat as follows: (1) To reduce the bank to a repara- tions receiving station taking over the functions of the agent general for rep- arations, (2) To make the bank a clearing house for banks of issue. (3) To establish a world superbank competing with financial institutions already operating internationally. The Americans are determined that the bank should be limited to its second function, namely, as a clearing house for central banks, including the receiv- ing of reparations under the Young plan. They emphasize a desire to wipe out any impression on the part of the | American public that anything like a Federal Reserve Bank of the World is | contemplated. | In this they appear to have the sup- port of the various delegations, all of which are determined to safeguard tke independent banking system of their respective countries. Whatsoever scopz the Settlement Bank may assume, its authority undoubtedy will be limited to | that of a clearing house. | Dr. Hjalmar Schacht, president of the German Reichsbank, left Baden-Baden for Berlin tonight to attend the funeral of Dr. Gustay Stresemann.
