COUNTRY" BANKERS
PICK BILL FLAWS
Declare Proposed Currency
Law Would Be Cumbersome
and Costly to Banks.

The Senate Banking and Currency
Committee today was given some
startling figures as to the cost of ex-
change under the banking system
proposed in the Administration cur
rency bill. George Woodruff. of
Joliet. III, one of the small bankers
who came here from the Boston con-
vention, basing his estimates on the
cost Of exchange in his own bank, said
the cost of handling the exchange
machinery of the new Federal reserve
bank at Chicago alone would be $780,
600 month. At this rate. the cost of
exchange for the entire system of re-
gional reserve banks would be $25,-
100000 a year.
Mr.. Woodruff went into the ques-
tion Of exchange in great detail. He
told the committee the ins and outs
of exchange charges by banks, and
the members Of the committee were
deeply interested. He said "kiting"
of the country banks.
Gardner Jones. Of Denver, was the
first witness. and he had criticisms to
offer. He thought the imposed system
would prove cumbersome.
The only serious talk about getting
through legislation at this session is
now heard at the White House. Sem
ators generally admit that 1t seems out
Of the question.
Scores Of amendments will be made to
the Administration bill before II comes
out Of committee. In fact, most of the
bill will be rewritten.

Just a few applications will prove a

Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier
way is to get the ready-to-use tonic,
costing about so cents a large bottle
at drug stores, known as "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" thus
avoiding q lot Of muss.
While wispy, gray, faded hair Is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur. no one can
tell, because 1t does 1t SO naturally, so
evenly. You just dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning all gray
hairs have disappeared. and, after an
other application or two your hair be-

now the people are coming back and
new people are coming in.
There had been thirty two vacant
homes within twelve miles OF his

people are looking to West Texas
for homes and there is no country
anywhere that offers more solid adj
yantages to settlers.
West Texas has suffered more IN

Is that conditlonos have been No
worse here than In most other parts
