erty has received letter from one OF
his agents informing him that the case

Lynchburg mill owners will again test
the constitutionality and validity OF
the statute,

SIGNATURE MAKES
BILL EFFECTIVE
Defect Found in Postal Savings
Measure Which May En-
barrass Board.

WASHINGTON, D. C., June a.
When President Taft signs the bill
for the esta adjustment of postal savings
banks ii will be a law in full force.
1t will be some time, however, before
the people will be able to take their
savings to the postoffices. with the
confident assurance that under Uncle
Sans protection the money will be
there when they choose to call for it.
The surprising discovery was made
to-day that the House bill which was
passed by the Senate fixes no time
when II shall take effect. The inten-
ton of Congress was to make the
law effective at some time far enough
in the future TO give the board OF
trustees opportunity to perfect the
system for the operation of the postal
banks. The bill is now at the White
House awaiting the signature.
