Following NJ. Paul Leroy Beaulieu's not
able article in the December Forum, the
January number of The Forum Will con-
tain ''Some Suggestions on Currency and
Banking" by Mr.. Adolf Ladenburg, a
prominent banker of New York CITY AS
a panacea for our financial Ills, Mr.. Lad
enburg suggests that the banks in every
city or small district combine and form a
sort of clearinghouse bank, and that
these clearinghouse banks combine and
form a state clearinghouse bank, and
that the state clearing house banks event
uaIly unite and form a national clearing
house bank He says that when this Is
accomplished. we would have a central
institution OF finance dealing with its
members ouly) which would represent all
the banks of the country, and be guaran-
teed by them. and TO 1t should ultimately
be delegat ted all power TO issue currency
1t would be a great central reservoir from
which every little bank in the country
would derive its strength TO supply its
customers with bauk-balarlce money and
currency. and under judicious manage
ment would give a confidence and stabil-
ity to commerce not hitherto experienced
in this country

and il is asserted that during the eight
days he remained there he ate no food
and drank but a few swallows of water
Mr.. Romero and others are willing TO
swear that no food passed his mouth
during those eight days.
The "healer" as the man is called,
was found at Pajarito, in the home OF
Juan Garcia. First of all. to strike the
observer is the remarka BILE likeness be-

Christ. The long flowing brown hair,
curling a trifie at the shoulders, over
which IL is spread, was there parted in
the middle and combed smoothly and

there wore simply blue calico shirt
with a fine white lime running perpen
dicularly over the breast, a blue jeans
jumper falling over the hips, over short
blue jeans oyeralls. Upon his feet We're
pepper and Salt socks which not quite
reached the overalls. Within an hour
scores touched his hands, many claim
ing relief from suffering. In lengthy
interview the man told of two years of
wandering since leaving Denver. He
claims he does as directed by his master
and to cure by faith alone.
