WASHINGTON, March 14- Cheered by return of gold and de- posits to thc reopened United States banks, the administration tonight declared the "era of fear" ended and proceeded with plans to extend the resumption of normal activities to all communities tomor- row. . With a. vast majority of thc in- stitutions in authorized cities again on a full time basis, Secretary Wil-

newed his assurance that immed- iate reopening of some banks and

' thc appointment of conservators ' F a’ c e for others by no means meant per- Suviqrintend- closing of thc latter

He said it simply meant with these banks that they were going to be put "in apple pie order" be- fore they,got their license to rc- sume activities.

the Government, President Roose- ‘velt called attention to those he called "dishonest" bankers, whom he blamed in part for the causes leading up to the national holiday.

Leaving a cabinet " at the White House, Attorney General Cummings said “we are sifting" those things. The Justice Depart- ment is under order from the Pres- ident to watch future disclosures by the Senate Stock Market hives- tlgotlng committee. Early hearings arc in prospect.

The Treasury also is drawing up strict regulations to apprehend boarders. Pending formulation of these, the period was extended un- til Friday in which boarders of gold and gold certificates will be per- mitted to return these to the banks.

The Federal Reserve Board an- nounced late today that eight state banks and trust companies had been Admitted to membership in the Federal Reserve system yes- terday.

Twenty of Washington's 33 banks were reopened today and reported heavy business oi deposits and new accounts. Ten savings banks and three national banks did not re- open immediately,
