BANKERS ARE I0LD ANSWERS RESERVE BOARD CRITICISMS v Governor Harding Replies to Strictures of Former Comp troller Williams CONTROL OF BANKS DENIED Dy the Associated Press Washington, Aug. 4. Governor Harding, of the Federal Reserve Hoard, begnn today a defense of his admin istration before the Congressional Com mission which hns heard a scries of criticisms ngainst the board, including those of John Skclton Williams, former Comptroller of the Currency. Workings of the nntlnnnl credit svstrm, Governor Harding said, are In tho hands of the reserve banks, and over theso the board hns "general supervision," adding that this did not mean "control." "In law, the reserve banks nre private corporations," he continued, "controlled by their director. Con gress did not attempt to establish a central bank, but did furnish u means of mobilizing credits." Representative Funk, Republican. Illinois, said that In 1020 there had been a feeling in the West that reserves were not being made available for their banks. "The feeling wafl not warranted," Governor Hording said, "and I want to discuss it later. Tho difficulty wns in the unsultablllty of some of the available paper." The question of individual credit extension "clearly Is up to the reserve banks," Governor Harding snid. "Now, If through prejudice or other cnuf.e, the district bank refused n rediscount, the member bank might appeal to the reserve board, but up to that polut wc could not interfere. "It Is true that the reserve board has power to change an Interest rate on rediscounts after it has been put Into effect by a district bnnk. But thnt has never been exercised.
