That Mr.. Untermeyer cannot use the

Such Matters Not Reported.

Examiners of national banks do not
now report upon such matters to the con-
troller and are not asked to do so. The
controller could direct that this informa-
ton be obtained if he thought it neces-
sary to the carrying out of national bank
ine, laws and the protection of the banks.
But he has never considered 1t necessary.
If he did SO, it is declared, the rulings Of
the courts are that these reports Wouio
be privileged. confidential from the banks.
Mr. Untermeyer, it Is pointed out, Is
trying to force the executive branch OF
the government to secure for him 1nfOr-
nation that the existing law holds to De

for the use Of Congress, but the trouble
is, il is said, that Congress has steadily
refused 10 pass proposed amendments OF
this kind. The Pujo committee was I'M
able to get through a Joint resolution
bringing out this information. All the
powers it has were conferred by House

Purpose of Untermeyer.

The prevailing view is that Mr.. Inter
meyer is caring little for information now
in the hands Of the controller. This in
formation is practically available from
many other sources. The matter of
credits and loans and the INTERPOLATION
ship Of large banks in New York is
easily obtained from printed reports Of
the condition Of banks and other publi-
cations that show clearly what directors
of one institution are connected with
another. What Mr.. Cnter1neyer is try
ing to have done, 1t is said, is to get
from President Taft an order compelling
national bank examiners TO investigate
the issuing and Offering for sale of secur-
tiles by banks and how far these banks
are connected with various mOneyed COR
porations in these issues.
Re wants to go still further and aScer-
tain, through reports of examiners. what
becomes of the profits on underwriting Of
securities; whether the profits go into
the assets of the bank or whether por-
tons of the profits are in stocks given as
bonuses that find their way into the
hands of directors and officers Of the
banks.
1t has been brought out that Morgan
& Co., for forming the harvester trust
and financing its securities obtained the
neat little sum of $13, 10000 in common
stock.

WASHINGTON, July 5.-WIthout
counterpart in the world is a
laundry machine in the bureau OF
engraving and printing, the plant
where the government turns out the
national supply of currency. A
great item of expense has been the
production of new bills to take the
place of crumpled, worn and germ
laden paper money, sent in for re-
demption.
1t has had sufficient use to prove
its success in taking the wrinkles
and dirt and germs out of badly
used currency. Two young ladies
have been placed in charge of the
laundry. One feeds the soiled mon
ey to one end of the machine and
the other stacks the clean, crisp,
laundried notes as they come
through.
Before the machine had been
placed in practical service the claims
made for 1t attracted the attention
of government officials in several
European countries. They sent over
samples of much abused currency
and We're delighted in the condition
in which 1t was returned to them.
Hundreds of people, have seen
the machine in action. Many of
those who laughed at the inventor
and Others associated with him in
his effort to put such machine
on the market, are today loud in
their praises for the wonderful
piece of machinery. 1t is estimat-
ed that in eight hours between 30
900 and $4,000 old bills can be
laundried
National bank presidents have
been asked to, sign notes from their
institutions in strong, indellible ink,
so that when such bills are put
through the laundry the ink will
not fade. AS it is today bank
presidents sign notes with any kind
of ink, from plain polk berry juice
up to ordinary five cent ink. These
fade in the laundry machine.
Burgess Smith, native of Ma
con. Ca, but for the past eight
years a scientist at the bureau o.
engraving and printing, is the de
