BANKERS REVEAL Figures From 101 Cities Show Big Increase in Loans and Investments. By the Associated P; NEW YORK, April 27.—The first faint indications that money is begin- ning to loosen up have been discerned by some New York banking authorities, who have advocated the present Federal Reserve Bank policy of attempiing to force banks to loan money more liber- / making the money supply un- large. These facts have been submitted by them in support of their contentions: 1. Bills discounted by the Reserve System for member banks have declined, ds taken to show that member irgently seeking cash e several weeks ago. In the week ended February 17 dis. s totaled $845,781,000 against % 000 in the week ended April 20. The latest condition statement of weekly reporting member banks in 101 leading cities shows an increase of $61,- 000,000 in loans and investments. This reverses a down trend which has gradu- ally been slackening during recent weeks. 3. Recent flotations of Government curities and prime municipal securi- ties have been absorbed this week by he investment market more rapidly than at any previous time this year. The Federal Reserve banks launched their intensive Government bond-buying program about three wee's ago. In the eck ended April 20 they purchased $93.106,000 of Government securities and the week before that their purchases totaled $100,010,000. For a few weeks prior to that time purchases had been averaging around $25,000,000 a week. The latest report placed Reserve bank holdings of Government obligations at $1,078,130,000. On February 24 their holdings amounted to $740,556,000. FINAL CURTAIN FALLS ON MORLEY THEATER Court Discharges Receivers for 01d-Time Drama Venture in Hoboken. By the Assoclated Press.
