Small Loans Made
'Political Football,'
Bankers Are Told
Legislators Should Be
Given Data on Costs,
New Yorker Says
Charging that “politicians” were
using the rate structure and in
terest charges of small loan agen
cies throughout the country as a
“political football,’ Otto C. Lorenz
of New York City today told the
American Industrial B&nkers As
sociation at the Wardman Park
Hotel "that your Job and my Job
is to give the American people bet
ter financial service at lower rates.”
Legislators, however, must be
brought to know the cost of such
service, such as the placing and
collectlnig of a $50 loan, he said.
Otherwise, he warned, the present
trend may lead to "lowering the
ceiling of the rate structure too
quickly.” This, he said might
bring “to a dismal end” the efforts
of department stores and many
agencies to meet the real needs
of the American people for small
loans.
An intelligent presentation of the
problem, he predicted, would "pre
vent legislators” from fixing this
ceiling too quickly. Any uniform
small loan legislation should give
recognition and protection for the
small loan business and the people,
he said.
Urges Careful Cost Analysis.
He recommended careful cost
analysis of small loans as one means
by which "we may lower rates on
loans.” Installment buying of all
sorts of goods was on a rapid in
crease and had spread to some of
the largest department stores in the
country, he said.
Theodore B. Nickson, controller
of the Federal Housing Administra
tion, presented a technical discus
sion on "the effect of volume of
business on efficiency of operation.”
Dr. Ralph A. Young of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania discussed
activities of the National Bureau
of Economic Research, with special
attention "to evaluating results of
statistical studies to increase effi
ciency of management.”
Thirty-four directors were elected
at this morning’s meeting and they
were to elect officers late this aft
ernoon.
Committee Reports Received.
E. R. Campbell of Shreveport, La.,
reported for the Auditing Commit
tee, and William E. Yeager, Warren,
Pa., reported for the Nominating
Committee.
Other speakers this afternoon in
cluded Dr. James S. Thomas, presi
dent of Clarkson College of Tech
nology, at Potsdam, N. Y.; Dr. R. J.
Saulnier of Columbia University,
Prof. Gustavus W. Dyer of Vander
bilt University and P. A. Lawrence
of the Burroughs Adding Machine
Co.
The bankers will have their an
nual dinner-dance tonight at the
Wardman Park Hotel and the con
vention will conclude tomorrow
morning.
Tomorrow’s speakers include John
A. Reilly, president of the Second
National Bank of this city, who will
discuss “Credit Machinery in the
Modern Bank.”
Outdoor Musical Given
At Cathedral School
Every child in Beauvoir, the Na
tional Cathedral Elementary School,
participated today in an outdoor
musical on the school grounds at
3500 Woodley road.
Scenes were laid in the garden
and on the farm, since every child
in the school has his individual
garden and all of the children visit
a farm sometime during their stay
at the school.
Children took the roles of mother
hens and waddling ducks after study
ing the habits of both during the
spring. The barnyard fence, wooden
rakes and hoes and other properties
were made and painted during the
handicraft periods, according to Miss
Elizabeth G. Taylor, principal. The
performance ended with a Maypole
dance.
Ameche Heckle
Defending Film
Appearing in the role of an op
ponent of legislation to outlaw
compulsory block booking and blind
selling of motion pictures, Don
Ameche, the film star, underwent a
slight heckling before the House
Interstate Commerce Committee
yesterday.
Declaring that pictures change so
much in the making, the actor told
the committee it would be “impos
sible” for producers to comply with
proposed provisions which would
require them to furnish theater op
erators with a synopsis of a picture
before it was produced.
Representative Brown, Repub
lican, of Ohio, asked the actor if he
had written a letter received by
committeemen opposing the legisla
tion, adding that “I also received a
letter from Mickey Rooney express
ing his opinion on moral and eco
nomic phases of this legislation.
This brought a roar from some
of the audience, and sniffs from
some members of the distaff side
which was out in force.
Mr. Ameche said he could not re
member whether he wrote the letter
or whether some one else had writ

approval.
Representative Wolverton, Repub
lican, of New Jersey told him not
to feel embarrassed If he didn’t
write the letter because “members
of Congress frequently have their
secretaries write letters for them.”
Mr. Brown said letters from Holly
wood -actors, which discussed moral
and economic factors of the pro
posed legislation, “made a great im
pression on me, especially those
from Mickey Rooney and Shirley
Temple”
Proponents of the legislation con

theater owner must contract for all
or none of the films in a proffered
group and that under blind selling
sometimes must buy a picture with
out knowing anything about it ex
