LOCAL FINANCIAL GOSSIP.

Henry Walters, of Baltimore, denies the
report that the Atlantic Coast Line in
tonds TO buy in and retire the Louisville
and Nashville collateral per cent bonds
Such a story has been widely repeated
in Wall street and among commission
house brokers.
The company has the privilege OF call
ing these bonds, but IL does not appear
that the directors are eager to pay a
premium of S1,75o,O0O to retire a low in
terest bond, which could not be replaced
with another issue on such an advan-
tageous basis. To retire the issue at 100
would cost the company $50, 750,000 while
the market value of the issue at the cur
rent price is about s31 $4,000. A deter
mination on the part of the Coast Line
to call she bonds would make a total
profit of $4900OO0 for the holders.
Interest is payable next on May I. and
If the Coast Line were to call for the re-
demption of the bonds 1t would have
to notify the holders not later than
March 1,
At the meeting Of the local stock ex-
change yesterday a letter was read from
Griffin Halstead. whose brokerage office,
In the Colorado Building. was recently
closed, due 10 his financial embarrass-
ment resigning from the exchange and
requesting that his seat be sold for the
benefit of creditors. Mr.. Halstead not
having any outstanding claims among the
members of the exchange was In good,
and the action requested will be complied
with.
Trading on the local exchange yester-
day was again small In volume, consist

Of wool on its products.
Mr.. Clark: l think it would be q
blessing to the American people
if it was all wiped out i'm that
schedule. applause on the Demo-
cratic side.) We say that the rates
in the woolen goods schedule are
entirely TOO high. The president
says The same ching. On that ques-
tion he and l are agreed. He is a
Republican president. The House
is Republican by 43 majority, and
the Senate is Republican by 26
majority.
When Mr.. Clark edited his
speech for campaign circulation,
and perhaps for the permanent
Record, he cut out all the matter
above quoted; but the speech in
full, exactly as delivered, and
heard by all who were listening 20
him, is in the Daily Congressional
Record as bound temporarily, On
pages 6S93 and 6s95, and t he para
graphs here quoted viii be found
on those pages. That is to say,
when Mr.. Clark came 20 look over
what he had said under spur of
close interrogation, il did not read
as we'll as he had thought, and so
he played the trick Of suppressing
it, and has since been going
around brazenly denying that he
ever made such declaration.
Now that his deception has been
exposed, let him a. least come for
ward with the $1,000 which he
promised to give to charity. In
the meantime, the admirers Of the
'speaker-to-be" can take a good
iOok at him and decide for them
selves what they think of him in

CITIES DESIRE TO
PENSION TEACHERS
VOTERS WILL BE ASKED TO AP-
PROVE PLAN IN THE NOVEM-
BER ELECTION.
NOT FROM STATE REVENUE
Funds to Be Raised by Municipal
School Boards From Local
Sources Entirely.

Missouri voters, at the election of
November 8, will be asked to pass
Amendment No. to the State Consti
tuition, providing for the establishment
of pension system for school teach
ers in ST. Louis, Kansas City and St.
Joseph.
The teachers of the three cities, who
are strongly urging the adoption of
the amendment, believe it will win
easily if two points can be made clear
to the voters. These points are:
First, that the amendment will
not be discrimination against
teachers in other sections of the
state.
Second, that the proposed pen
sion funds will be drawn from
local sources entirely, tnat the
rest of the state will not have to
contribute toward the pensions of
the city teachers, and that the
amendment does not authorize an
increase in the city tax rate.
The proposed amendment is what
is called enabling legislation. If adopt
ed, it will not in itself provide for
pension funds, but will merely author
ize the legislature to pass an act.
This act, in turn, will authorize the
boards of education of st. Louis, Kan
sas City and st. Joseph to establish
the funds.
The boards in those cities stand
ready to take such action as soon as
they are legally authorized to do so.
1t is believed that large majority Of
voters in the three cities favor the
amendment.
They are to do this without having
power to increase the city tax rates
In other states and cities
and there are seven states and fifty
cities which now have teachers pen
sion funds--it has been found possible
to provide funds from other sources
than increased tax levies.
Some of the means employed In
those states and cities are (1) small
percentage tax on teachers salaries,
the percentage being lowest for those
whose salaries are least; (2) portions
of regular school revenue diverted
The Montgomery tribune., 1910-09-30
....s+.f.s.s.ss.....s..

from other purposes; (3) sums for.
feited by teachers through loss of
time; (4) voluntary contributions of
teachers and others.
