FINANCIAL EXPERT
DEN0UNCES BANKERS

Cincinnati, Ohio, Nov. 25.-De-
nouncing Aldrichs central reserve
bank fund plan, Alfred Crozier. a
prominent finoncial authority. delar-
ed today that the American Bankers
association. Has solemnly Joined
Wall Street in the most daring and
dangerous conspiracy that has ever
been cooked up by the greed and
avarice of high finance. He said
Shall the control of the public cur
rency be by the public or by private
parties? That is the Issue.
"The, Aldrich plan offers the banks,
for their support, the most colossal
bribe in history. He would take
from the government and give to a
banking syndicate a present of one
billion dollars to put in their reserves
so that with relatively no investment
the banks can collect interest on it
and loan it back to the people at a
profit of billions and get more busi-
ness credit-on mere financial wind"

ROUNDUP WRITEUP
IN PACIFIC MONTHLY

In the December issue of the Pa
cific Monthly just off the press is a
profusely illustrated story of The
Roundup, perhaps the most readable
story that has yet been written OF
Pendleton's big frontier show The
author is none other than Fred Lock-
ley, manager of the magazine and
formerly circulation manager of the
East Oregonian and incidentally one
whose knowledge of the west he de-
scribes was not gained by reading
but derived from actual contact with
it.
Preliminary to the description of
the cowboy carnival Mr.. Lockley tells
OF Pendleton and its tributary coun-
try as 1t was before invaded by the
iron monsters of the Hill and Harri-
man system and in this introduction
he incorporates stirring incidents ia
miliar TO every old timer in this part
OF the state.
His story of the Roundup proper is
vivid and graphic, each feature of the
big show being so described that the
real spirit of the occasion is impart-
ed TO the reader. Throughout the
story are reproductions of photo
graphs taken by Bowman. MARCEL
and Burrell at the two shows and
they furnish proof indisputable of the
claims made by the author.
The Pacific Monty story concludes
with the realistic impressions of a
at the Roundup as writ
ten by w. c. E Pruitt and published
