tNote-The following was read by Mr.. GArdin ~
Institute Of BANKING at the New Raleigh. last Sat-
urdAy eveningl
1 have been asked to speak upon the
question OF American banking institu-
tons in foreign countries
A banking system is more an effect
than a cause, and this, think. is lost
sight of in the universal clamor on the
IErt OF American merchants for bank
ing facilities in foreign countries, par
ticularly in South America.
Trade follows the flag, and, after the
trade is established. then comes the
necessity for a more intimate banking
connection than can be found either
through local institutions or through for
eign institutions located In the country
interested.
The American merchant need have no
fear, II he entered into a vigorous cam
paign for the sale OF his goods In South
America, that his banking requirements
would not be properly cared for and
cared for economically as well as safely.
The American dollar is little known
in South America, whereas the English
sovereign, the German mark. and the
French franc are the currencies that
have an immediate convertible value into
the local currency, owing to the fact
that the banking system Of each one OF
these countries has been represented
there for years; first by means OF pri-
vate firms. which firms, later on. de-
veIoped into joint stock companies,
which still later on have undergone ANAL
carnations and consolidation so that to-

WOMEN TAKE HOPE
FROM Big BLAZE
Will Petition w. R. and E. Co. to
Replace Burned Cars with
Low Step Type.

That victory for the women's commit
tee fighting against high street car steps
is within sight was the opinion among
the feminine agitators last night, when
Miss Janet Richards, chairman OF the
committee, announced that a petition is
to be presented to Clarence Z. King.
president OF the Washington Railway
and Electric Company. asking that the
sixty-seven cars which were destroyed
Sunday morning in the fire which razed
the barn at Thirteenth and ID streets
northeast be replaced by a type or car
with a low step.
Recalling the interest evinced by Mr..
King at the hearing before the District
railway commission last wednesday and
his apparent eageruess TO respond TO All
reasonable and Just requests OF the pub
lie. members of the women,S committee
last night felt sanguine that he Will lend
all possible aid in procuring low step
cars in place Of the high step cars that
were burned, in view of the TACT that
the new type Will not cost more than
cars provided with what the committee
caIls street car stepladders."
After a conference between Miss Rich
ards and Miss Elizabeth Brown. vice
chairman Of the committee. members
were notified last night by telephone
THAI the petition will be drawn up to-
day by an attorney who has offered his
legal aid in the movement and forwarded
to President King as soon as possible.
II the request OF the committee Is
granted and President King orders low
step cars, the first victory OF the cam
paign will have been won, ana II is the
belief OF the committee that the Capital
Traction Company will tall in line II a
precedent Is established by the Washing
ton Railway and Electric Company.

Burton People are making a serious
mistake when they imagine that every
thing in the sheep and wool growing
industry is clean profit. The loss of live
stock through incurSions into the herds
by mountain lions, wildcats, and other
savage animals is great and cuts the
profit down TO almost nothing. II Con-
gress cuts down the tariff on wool, the
foreign product which will come into this
country will menace our own and make
the industry still less profitable"
The political situation so far it per-
tains to the Presidential campaign or
preferences is not yet sufficiently clari-
fed in Nevada, according to Mr.. Burton,
TO justify him in any statements as to
who will be the nominees on the Repub-
Hcan and Democratic tickets.
Mr.. Burton sharply criticised the policy
