PHOENIX BOYS MAKE
 GOOD DRIVING RECORD

A party of energetic PhOenicians left Phoenix at o'clock on Thursday morning. drove to a point 24 miles the other side of PaIomas, in the neighbor- hood of Middle Wells in Yuma county, repaired an automobile that was stuck in a wash there, and returned to Phoe- nix by 2:3O yesterday morning, which incidentally is some drive.
 This trip was one hundred and tWen- ty miles each way or two hundred and forty miles, which was done in less than tWentyfOur hours.
 Some time back a story went the rounds here of the predicament of a traveller by the name of Blaine, who wore out his auto tires in the rough places east of Yuma. He reached Phoe nix and made deal with Tom Higley to go out there, fit up the auto with new tires and pilot the crowd back. Tom is nothing if not game. He de- cided to take up the proposition and Blaine, Whitney. Tom Higley, Harvey Sauer and Webb Griffin, started out. That they succeeded is shown by the fact that they got back.

SECURING FUNDS FOR
 EMBASSY QUARTERS

It would be hard to estimate the amount of money expended by those who remain abroad a year or more, but the amount of money expended by American transients in Europe IS placed at $200.OOO,0O0. Surely such vast sums diverted from American channels ought to be mulcted to the slight amount that Ambassador Ger ard proposes He suggests $10 a year as a sum sufficient to secure funds for embassy quarters. This would neceSsitate compulsory regis
 tra ton of Americans abroad, which would be a benefit in other direc- tions as well. The Gerard plan is one that must appeal to Americans as being a wise proposal for the so- lution of a difficult problem. Such solution would tend to strengthen the American sentiments of aliens for a time being from home shores. For the very fact that they paid a

necessary to sell government
bonds. but It is so unfair that
II ought 10 be Discontinued
Lawrence Journal.
The matter OF "unfairness" does
not enter into the question Of ma
tional banks issue of notes. II the
government did not pay interest to
the banks which hold its bonds II
would pay to some other holders OF
the securities. The popular notion
expressed above that the national
banks gain much profit from their
note issuing privilege is far from
the facts. The truth is that most
national banks would prefer not to
issue notes and a large number OF
them issue the smallest amount re-
quired by the statutes. A national
bank with 100000 capital issuing
500. 900 notes must purchase at a
premium bonds to the par value OF
100000. These have cost all the
way from 100000 to $4,000 and
pay 2 or 8 per cent interest. AS
the bonds approach maturity their
market value decreases. With this
loss, the expense of shipping notes
and the per cent redemption fund
maintained at Washington the av-
erage bank would gain by loaning
its 100000 directly without the
note-issuing privilege. The advant-
age lies in having somewhat CO.
hesive system of banks, nationwide,
restricted to commercial operations
and under government supervision
for reserve purposes and the facili-
tation Of exchange. While the bond
holding, note-issuing requirements
once, as the Journal states, served
purpose in national finance that
necessity no more exists and a mod
ern currency system would have
notes issued by central association
backed by the combined reserves OF
all the banks. 1t would in no way
injure the national banks which
have no PARTICULAR advantage In is
suing notes individually. The fact
that they are no more prosperous
than state banks operating under
similar conditions is evidence OF
that proposition. Nor would the
be affected either way
by the change. A central power OF
note-issuing and a cooperation OF
interest would make banks
more substantial and less liable to
panic conditions. Sound banking
reform looks toward this end.

PRoF. CARRUTH,s GooD SENS


Kansas is losing in Prof. w. H.
Carruth not only a fine educator
but man with sensible views on
tire duty OF the state toward higher
education. Speaking Of his accept
ance OF position in Leland Stan
ford University, he said yesterday:
IF the moral can be pointed suf-
ficiently to benefit those who remain
! shall be eomforted for my loss in
going. Here's the meat of the mat
ter: There are Just as good men
remaining as those who have been
taken. But the average man, not
in our business, can Judge as to
who are good men only by the call
to go elsewhere, when it is usually
too late to change matters. The
only people competent to Judge the
true value of college instructors are
the president and his advisors; that
is what they are hired for; If they
don't know, nobody knows. The
people of the state and the legisla-
ture must trust the estimate Of their
managers for educational affairs, the
presidents Of the institutions. II
Is as foolish for a legislator or o
governor to hamper or dictate to
these men as It would be for the
sfockhnlders of the Santa ia rail.
way to dictate to or hamper theiI
general manager. The people Of the
state certainly have the right to say
whether they want to pay for higher
education, but when they have de
cided they will do so, then wisdom
dictates that. they hire the best man
ager they can find and follow hi
advice"
