It's a friendly clash of ideas and ideology over business lending and credit union growth shaping up this month between an Idaho banker and two credit union CEOs on one of those Federal Reserve panels devoted to promoting grassroots input and harmony.

In this case, the venue is the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and the confrontation focuses on a sideline debate within the Community Depository Institutions Advisory Council. 

At issue is CU advocacy of new business lending powers and the tax exemption, pitting the panel chairman, John L. Evans of  D.L. Evans Bank of Burley, against Ron Barrick, president/CEO of Advantis CU of Milwaukie, Ore., and Darin Moody, president/CEO of Utah First FCU of Salt Lake City. Barrick is also vice chairman of the San Francisco CDIAC.
