A—4 * ASSOCIATION HOLDS BANKS ARE STRONG Report Says 99 Per Cent of Deposits Unaffected by Economic Situation. B the Assoclated Press. ATLANTIC CITY, October 6.—Amer- ican bankers today launched an assault on the Nation's economic problems. Criticising critics of the banking structure and pleading for perspective picture of a serious situation, the Eco- nomic Policy Commission of the Amer- ican Bankers' Association presented its report to the first general session of the association's convention. The report is not voted on by the convention, but bankers take it to rep- Tesent the views of financial men and regard it as particularly important at this time. “In common with the rest of the world our country is being forced to face many serious problems, but Amer- ican credit is still the strongest in the world,” the report said. Gold Holdings Cited. “We hold in this country a large part of the world’s monetary gold. It is still fundamentally true that where the gold is the strength lies. ; “We have no doubt that America's indomitable will to conquer will see us through the present difficulties as it has seen us through similar difficulties in the past. “The facts are that. while 4 per cent of the banks, as to numbers, were per- manently or temporarily closed in the first eight months of the year, some 96 per cent were not involve and, furthermore, that only 1.2 per cent of the deposits were tied, which means that almost 99 per cent were not af- Tected. “It is obvious, in view of the fore- going, that an exaggerated and dis- torted view of the banking_ situation has been created in the public mind by focusing attention” solely on the bank-failure figures, unrelated to the broader situation of which they are but & part. Many Difficulties Met. “It surely stands strikingly to the THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, Held for Child Killing in New York VINCENT COLL GANG PHOTOGRAPHED AT HEADQUARTERS.

S. Attains Ratio Proposed. ] By the Associated Press. A five-year naval holiday by Great Britaln and Japan, while the United States continues to build her treaty Navy, is favored by Senator Swanson of Virginia. ‘The ranking Democrat on the Senate Naval Committee has proposed to President Hoover that he negotiate such a treaty with the other two signatories of the London Naval Pact, as a means of bringing this country up to iis al- lotted comparative strength. Swanson, who in the past has sup- ported libéral appropriations for the Navy, said a treaty for a holiday of this kind is far preferable to small and sporadic reductions of naval ex- penditures with no definite end in view and which will result in putting the United States at a disadvantage in ob- taining the agreed ratios of the Lon- don treaty.” v Outlines Holiday Views. Pointing out that the world depres- slon and governmental deficits have resulted in widespread discussion of a nl;;fll holiday, the Virginia Senator said: “The United States s, under the terms of the London conference, in agreement with Great Britain for equal- ity in naval power and in agreement naval strength of five for the United States and three for Japan, Britain and this ratio with Japan, Great Pritain and Japan consented to less naval construction until these ratios were obtained by the United States. Urges Building Suspension. “Under these circumstances the United States could and should agree to a naval holiday with these nations provided that the the end of the holiday the ratios fixed in the London treaty should be reached and during the years of the holiday there should be annually TUESDAY, OCTOBER 6, “DADDY.

All of the children except Eva May escaped the flames, but she tripped and fell in | the middle of the burning liquid. Mrs | Lloyd C.
