ON EXCHANGES
Commissioner of Corporations
Smiths Suggestions.
WOULD REPORT TO- PRESIDENT.
Cannot Determine How to Eliminate
Evil and Retain Good Of the Future
Transactions.

Washington, SpeciaL.-A Federal
tax on the transactions carried on
by the exchanges of the country is re-
garded by Herbert Knox Smith, COM
missioner of corporations, as offering
in some measure a CONSTITUTIONS
and available means of regulation
of these bodies. But In a report sub
mitted to President Taft Friday, MIR.
Smith acknowledged that he is some
what at a loss to determine exactly
how HEto eliminate the evil and retain
the good of the future transactions
of the exchanges.
Information requested by the Pres
ident as to transactions on produce
exchanges and as to certain future
contracts in farm products led to
Mr.. Smith s report on the subject.
Taking up the various classes OF
transactions in farm commodities,
the commissioner holds that "spot'
and "intended delivery" future
transactions are proper; that "bucket
shop'' transactions are "unquestion-
ably evil and indefensible," and
that "hedging" transactions are nee
essary and proper, being really not
speculation, but an avoidance OF
speculation"
But as to speculation "where
neither party intends to deliver or
receive, but where the contract is
made on a regular exchange, the rules
of which make delivery and receipts
obligatory, if demanded Mr.. Smith
asserts that this class of future
transactions "presents a difficult
problem. It's existence probably In
wolves the existence of the future ex-
changes themselves"
The trouble with exchange specula-
ton, says Mr.. Smith, is not with the
theory but with the actual practice.
The commissioner bases his com
ments in regard to speculation chief
ly on recent investigation of the cot
ton exchanges. The theoretic bene-
fits of exchange transactions, he says,
are often nullitied by improver con-
ditions on the exchanges themselves
and cites the New York cotton ex-
change, the basic defect of which he
says is its so-called "fxed differ
ence" system. The false quotations
produced under this system, he says,
frequently decrease prices of cotton
received by the farmer.

ton, has been to the country. Like
wise the inland waterways commits
sion has been called upon to expend
a large amount of money on work
that ought to have been done by Con-
gress.
There is no way of estimating what
the expense In the Balinger-Pinchot
case will be when it is ended. Many
witnesses will come to Washington
from time to- time, from far distant
States, and their expenses, including
railroad fare, hotel bills and inciden.
tails, must be paid by the Government.
In addition to this the expenses of
the Senators and Representatives,
who compose the committee, when
the long trip to the West is made to
personally inspect the Cunningham
coal lands, the mismanagement of
which formed the basis of Glavis's
charges against Secretary Ballinger,
must be paid by the Government.
It is not believed that the food and
meat trusts investigation will be com
pleted for a year or more, although
a partial report of the inquiry may
be made at the present session of Con-
gress. The outlook therefore IS for
continued investigation in many lines
for at least the next year or two

Never In the history Of the coun-
try, old officials around the Capitol
say, have so many Congressional In
vestigations been held at one time as
the case now is. The situation, they
say, is almost without parallel, and
indicates clearly that other laws
than those under which we are now
living must be enacted or the higher
courts of the land, including the
United States Supreme Court and the
Interstate commerce commission,
must hereafter more strictly enforce
their mandates. The many loopholes
through which violations of the law,
both civil and criminal so frequently
occur, must be closed up. Not until
that time will it become unnecessary
to hold Investigations, such as that
now going on in the Ballinger-Pinchot
matter, in the Investigations of the
food and meat trusts, into The trans
portation of second-class. mail matter
and other investigations by special
committees &C Congress In Washing
ton.

ton commission, which spent several

food Chemist Repert.

During the year I'll samples of
food and beverages were e~xaminedy
154 or a little more than 81 per cent
of which were found to be adulterat-
ed or misbranded. Eight violations
of the law have been reported to
solicitors for prosecution and others
are being put IN shape to be report
ed. In each ease the defendant was
convicted and fined. The adultera-
tons of greatest Importance were
found in butter, lee cream, vinegar,
syrup, molasses and -four. Butter
contained fat other than milk fat;
ice cream was made from gelatin,
etc., and was below standard in
milk fat; compound vinegar was
sold for fruit vinegar; molasses and
syrup contained too much water, and
-four was bleached with chemicals
that are deleterious to health.
