Secretary of the Treasury Asks
Them to Relieve Present
Scarcity
SMALL BILLS STORED AWAY
House Committee to Take Up Currency
Observation-Disclosures to Meat In
spection Bill introduced in Senate
Proceedings in consress-Washins
ton Notes.

washington, Dec. 6.-Secretary of
the Treasury Shaw today issued the
Following open letter to all the banking
institutions in the United States:
"A very marked scarcity of small
bills is noticeable everywhere, which
the treasury is powerless to relieve.
In the absence of legislation allowing
the national banks to issue larger
proportion of their circulation in the
d denomination of IS, the banks them
selves must be relied upon to alleviate
the strain as far as possible. There
are in circulation, nearly $15,000,000 in
silver certificates. Of the denomination
of $40 Many of these are doubtless
packed away in the vaults of various
banking institutions, and held as re-
serve. Permit me to respectfully ask
that each institution, state and ma
tional, search the money in its vaults,
and send these tell-dollar certificates
no the treasury. They will promptly
be converted into ones and twos, to
the very great relief Of the country.
1t is the only remedy. Let no bank
complain of conditions until it has lit
orally searched its own valuts, and
contributed as far as possible to the
relief of the situation"

"Wt. have another type of country
which needs drainage along the Mis-
souri, river. From the bluffs to the east
large quantities Of water are drained
rapidly onto the river bottom lands
exceedingly rich IN their fertility, but
subject to frequent overflow. The
drainage problem is also found along
the Mississippi river, where levees have
been constructed to prevent the over
flow from flooding lands on either Side.
By the construction of such levees the
bottoms of such lands are often flooded
by water thrown down from the bluffs,
and for which there is not outlet to the
river, pipe outlets being too small and
often closed during "a. rise in the wa
ter
Ashbaugh went deeply into the cost
of drainage and benefits to health VIXEN
