BANKERS PLANTS
Continued from First PAGE

such subscription to be paid and half
subject to call. They suggest that the
proposed requirement should be cut in
naiI; 1t Is perhaps a sufficient answer
10 TINS suggestion to recall that at the
annual meeting Of the American Bank
ers Association at New Orleans in 1911
tnis identical requirement was unan-
inousiy approved as part of the AL
drich plan. At New Orleans two years
against this provision, yet in Chicago
last month there was none to defend it.
ool Wexier, who was designated by
the chicago bankers conference to ex-
pam the Views OF that conference to the
senate committee on banking and cur
rency. failed to advance a single argu-
ment against this provision which he
might not have advanced against the
same provision in the Aldrich plan when
the bankers association met in his own
city Two years ago. He failed to ex-
plain the remarkable unanimity in the
change OF opinions; he failed to show
any new circumstance which makes this
provision, SO desirable two years ago, i'm
practicable now.
1T is inconceivable that every member
OF the bankers association present at
these two conferences could really have
sincerely reversed his opinion on this
provision as an independent proposition
And In truth there was no independence
about it. At New Orleans Simon said,
Thumbs up and all thumbs went up.
At Chicago Simon said Thumbs down.
and every thumb went down. 1t matters
not whether Simon was Mr.. Forgan or
Mr.. Hepburn or Mr.. Wexler or Mr.. Wade,
or a composite of all of them. 1t is
pretty clear that he decreed the reversal
of position, not because of any change in
the merits Of this Independent PROPOSE
ton. but because for some other reason
he favored the Aldrich plan and disliked
the Glass plan."

Representative Rogers of Massachu-

Bacteria in Public Baths.

E~lectrolyzed e water, poured init
swimming pools in small quantities,
has proved to be an effective sterilizer
to be used in the fight against noxious
bacteria. It's sterilizing action is so
great, as experiment has shown, that
thirty gallons will keep the water in
an 85,000-gallon tank clear and free
from bacterial organisms for several
days. And the electrolyzed e water
costs only about $40 per 1000 gallons.
The need of such a sterilizer is shown
by the fact that in a fresh-water pond
Of 100000 gallons, used by $50 bath
ers, the bacteria have been known to
increase from 500 to 342, 900 per cubic
centimeter (about lie cubic inch) In
