Leaders of the association asserted last

Regulation OF National Banks.

Another feature of legislation which
will receive attention. though to what
extent cannot be outlined at this time,
is the regulation of national banks in
conformity with some of the recon-
mendations OF the Pujo money trust
committed 1t is certain that a bill
pre- hibiting interlocking directorates of
national banks will be one of the first
passed. as its preparation was author
Ized last summer by the Democratic
caucus of the House.
Some of the other Pujo recommenda-
tions are these: Forbidding national
banks to clear for or through other
national banks or trust companies of
the same locality; for5idding agree
ments as to collection charges. rates OF
discount and rates on deposits; forbid
ding national banks to lend credit in
aid Of any combination TO control
prices. prohibiting borrowing from
their own banks by officers of firms or
corporations in which they in
terested: prohibiting officers and di-
rectors of national banks from par
ticipa ting in promotion Of securities
which shall be- sold by their banks;
prohibiting national banks from engag-
ing in any promotion or fiotation OF Sc
curities: prohibiting stock of n national
bank from being held by any other

To Be Made Party Measure.

Ii Is assumed that the antitrust bill
Will be formulated as were the tariff
and the currency bills-that is TO say
through conferences between President
Wilson and the party leaders in the
House and Senate. The antitrust bill is
to be a party measure. obeying the man
oates of the democratic national platform
adopted at Baltimore. Once agreed upon
~ the President and the leaders and
ratified by a democratic caucus, its sup
port will be made a test of party al
legiance.
In general way democrats in the
House are aware of some of the proposed
features of the antitrust bill. Sum
mariZed. they are understood to be as
follows:
Regulation of the capitalization of cor
perations engaged in interstate COM
nerce.
Regulation of the sale price of the
necessities of life controlled by trusts
This includes looking into the operations
of cold-storage companies and combina-
lions thereof handling ishable food.
Prohibition of interlocking directo-
rates in interstate commerce corpora
tions and national banks.
Prohibition Of the practice of fixing
ur form prices of commodities for
communities.
Fixing heavy penalties for the per-
sonal guilt of men responsible as in
dividuals for the misdeeds of corpora
tons

Hulsey struck match. he was shot by
Lopez. In the exchange of shots that fol-
lowed Mandrich fell and then the deputies
retreated. Several deputies who had gone
ahead of the smudging party We're cut off
by the desperate, who is now between
them and the outlet.
Arrangenrents We're made tonight to at

Four in Hitchcock Bill.

The Hitchcock bill. which has the sup
port of the democratic Senator from Ne
braska and five republican members of
the committee. provides for only four
regional reserve banks. 1t is expected,
therefore, that strong efforts will be made
70 amend the democratic bill when II
gets into the open Senate so as to reduce
the number of banks. The opponents OF
the larger number of regional banks be-
lieve that the system will be weakened
by dividing the banking resources of the
country.
They contend also that if the sup
porters of the many regions plan are
actuated by desire to eliminate New
York as the great banking center of the
country, they will not succeed in ac-
complishing this result New York will
have the largest regional bank in the
country in any event. and to increase
the number will be merely to magnify
the Importance of the New York
regional reserve bank.
The caucus has referred back TO the
Owen wing of the committee, with
other things, the section of the bill re-
lating to the retirement of the proposed
notes.
