DAYS OF GRACE"
Repealed in Iowa by theSNegotinble
Instrument Law.

DEs MONIES, IoWA-Attorney General
Mullan; has given an opinion to the auditor
of state in which he holds the negotiable in
strument law, enacted by the last general
assembly, repeals the present law requiring
days, OF grace. The question Is one that has
been giving much trouble to bankers all over
the state. Mr.. Mullan says there is no ques-
ton that days of grace were abolished by the
act. When the bill was before the general
assembly, this question was raised but the
matter was given hasty consideration and It
was said by Representative Clarke, who IN
troduced the measure, that it would not have
this effect. e III. ~ ~ g. .er-,..
The hearing before the executive council
on railway taxation was marked yesterday.
by the appearance of Henry Wallace,
who spoke for the public and urged
that the market values of stocks and bonds
be used in reckoning the values of railroads.
Mr. wallace, who is the publisher of Wal
lace's Farmer of this city. and an authority
on farm values, contended that the present
values of farms in Iowa were too high TO
continue and could not Justly be taken as the
basis for assessment Of farm property
w. W. Baldwin of the Burlington presented
figures to show that hundreds of corpora
tions in Iowa are evading section 1928 Of the
code, which requires an annual return TO the
assessors, showing the amount and value Of
their capital stock and facts related thereto.
OF fifteen large concerns he had investigated
in Burlington, Mr.. Baldwin said not one was
making such report. No such reports We're
made in Des Moines and the assessments on
corporations were extremely, often ridicul-'
ousiy, low Mr.. Baldwin cited as examples
the low assessments on the Des Moines Street
Railway company, the Dess Moines Water
works company, the Savery Hotel company:
the Edison Light company and various others.
i Governor Cununins. who has taken the
closest Interest. IN the hearings, has declared
his belief that the state is given too large a
share Of operating expenses by the railroads,
thus cutting down the net earnings according
70 reports. He believes the fair rule would
be to give Iowa the same share OF operating
ernenses. compared to the, expenses of the
systems as the Iowa gross earnings are to the
