A—18 soeew FI FLEMING PLANS FOR A.B. A Five D. C. Bankers Given Important Committee Appointments. BY EDWARD C. STONE. According to dispatches from New Orleans today, Robert V. Fleming ac- cepted the presidency of the American Bankers' Association in a short, pointed address in which he outlined his plans for the coming year and later announced very important committee ap- pointments which included five Washing ton bankers. In his address he declared that the A. B. A. has to-operated wher- ever it could yproperly do so in every measure for national recovery and offered con- structive recommendations for such changes in banking laws as the asso- ciation recognized as necessary. Turn- ing to the banking act of 1935 h said: “The banking act of 1935 affords us [ opportunities for broader service and, at the same time, retains the funda- mentals which we believe are so vital to our national welfare and which have played a large part in bringing our country, in a comparatively short space of time, to the position of the greatest 4ndustrial nation on the earth.” Mr. Fleming proposes to establish Huring the coming year regional A. B. A. conferences, to be held in strategic sections of the country and embracing the managerial, legislative and operat- ing problems confronted by all types and classes of banks, these meetings to be in addition to the already estab- lished trust and savings conferences. The new sessions will be designed to acquaint bankers with the broad prin- ciples under which they can now op- erate, the Washington banker said. Public Relations Stressed. i Public relations will be stressed more than ever before. The new A B. A. head wants the public to know dust what the banks can do and just what they cannot do. If loans can- mot be made under existing bank laws, | the applicants should be shown the reasons in a manner that is under- standable, for it recognized that to| many people the business of banking | s still somewhat of a mystery. He expressed confidence in the sound ! Judgment and common sense of the American people when the functions | of banking institutions are more fully understood. During the next 12 months the offi- | cials of the A. B. A. will continue to | fight for what they think to be for | the economic good of the country and will bitterly oppose every legislative | measure they believe detrimental. | They will also make every effort to get | the Government to give up temporary banking functions as rapidly as pos- sible. While the Government had to step in during the emergency, these temporory banking agencies should not be allowed to become permanent, 1n the opinion of Mr. Fleming and his mssociates. | Mr. Fleming’s address took less than | five minutes. It showed clearly that | he is not going to sit still during the | coming year. In a nutshell, he hopes to take the association closer to the members, put the banks in better light before the public with a view to ending what is considered unjust criticism, work with United States | officials to strengthen all banks and at the same time vigorously oppose every proposed action considered de- structive. “A great opportunity for aervice,” he told his associates. D. C. Bankers on Committees. Five former presidents of the Dis- trict Bankers' Association were in- cluded in the committee appointments | which President Fleming announced today at the conclusion of the general business sessions. George O. Vass, a vice president and | cashier of the Riggs National Bank, ‘was appointed a member of the Fed- eral Legislative Council, State Legis- lative Council, and the Committee on | *Taxation. He is already a representa- tive from the District Bankers' As- sociation on the Executive Council. ‘Wilmer J. Waller, vice president and eashier of the Hamilton National Bank, was appointed to the Commit- tee on Banking Studies and to mem- bership on the Executive Committee of the same group. Francls G. Addison, jr., president of the Security Savings and Commercial Bank, was named a member of the ‘Bankruptcy Committee of the Amer- ican Bankers' Association by the new president. Joshua Evaus, jr., vice president of the Hamilton National, was appointed & member of the special committee on section 5219 of the revised statutes of the banking act of 1933. This com- mittee is working on the subject of State taxation of national bank 8tocks. Frederick P. H. Siddons, secretary of the American Security & Trust Co., ‘was the other Washington banker to receive committee honors. He was gppointed to the Insurance Commit- tee, a group which considers a very wide range of insurance problems. A glance at the list shows the ap- pointments were made on merit. All have rendered valuable service to the local association, and have already done much for the national organiza- tion. Many bankers serve more than one year on A. B. A committees, which greatly limits the new appoint- ments each year. This makes the more notable the distinction given to Capital bankers by the new A. B. A. chief. Today’s Trading on Exchange. Riggs National Bank preferred stock sold at 106 today on the Washington Stock Exchange in 8 small-lot trans- action. This was up a full point from the last previous sale. ‘Washington Gas 6s, series B, opened with a $1,000 sale at 102!, off % from the last sale. Two baby Gas bonds then sold at 100, completing the day’s trading. Potomac Electric Power preferred stocks and both Washington Railway & Electric issues are now being quoted ex-dividend. The regular dividends are to be paid in a few days. In the! case of Washington Railway & Elec- | tric common, in addition to the $3 payment due at this time, an extra payment of $6 per share has also been voted. The bid for Railway & Electric common today stood at $640 a share, ex-dividend, against $650 yesterday. ‘The asked price was reduced to $710a share from yesterday's $725 figure. Azain no sales.
