J of deaf people are expected to accept
the invitation of the General Acoustic
Co. to come into its offices at 1923
{ Evans bldg. Washington, and have
their hearing restored for one hour,
free of charge.
( People who have been deaf for
lyears, others only slightly hard of
Ihearing-all in any way aff1icted-are
invited to enjoy the world of clear
sound again at our expense. The in
}eonspicuous six-tone "electrical-ear' of
the Acousticon--one of the most re-
(markable productions of science and
}electricity-will provide the means of
! hearing, and every one who wishes to
have his or her deafness permanently
eliminated will be enabled to take the
wonderful instrument home with him.
The General Acoustic Co. has adopted
J this method of personal demonstra-
} ton to prove to the deaf people of
Washington and neighboring cities
! that their hearing can be brought
back by the ACQUISITION permanently

give special attention to all applicants
visiting these permanent offices during

Vehicles on the Capitol Plaza.

In the arrangement of the plan for
next years civic Christmas celebra-
ton precaution should be taken to ad-
init no vehicles to the Capitol plaza,
provided the tree is erected and the
music and tableaux are rendered there.
The public enjoyment of the remarkable
spectacle at the Capitol last evening
was somewhat marred by the great
number of motors and carriages that
were driven into the space east of the
tree, forming parked semicircle
many vehicles deep and leaving d
space beyond for moving motors and
carriages. The semicircle of parked
vehicles obscured the view of those
who were standing beyond. while the
noise of the moving motors in the
roadway east of the semicircle
drowned the music of the band and
the chorus, and those who desired to
hear were forced to thread their way
perilously through the maze Of ma
chimes to reach the inner crowd, where
they could at least hear the hymns. If
the entire space from the steps to the
lawn were given over exclusively to
those on foot a much greater number
would be afforded an opportunity both to
see and to hear. The motors and car
riages last evening occupied d space
disproportionate to the number of per-
sons accommodated with vantage
points, and moreover those who Were
in the outer row of parked vehicles
were themselves prevented from see
ing anything in most cases. 1t will not
be difficult another time to make al
arrangement that will give seeing ano
hearing facilities to a much large,
number than could last evening fully
enjoy the program.

BANK HEADS DIFFER
ON FEDERAL CONTROL

NEW YORK. June give are do
ing nothing more at these conferences
than talking over the currency reform
legislation, trying to harmonic our
IDEAS, to understand 1t and TO apply
the proposed changes to practical
business. We shall not criticise any
until we have seen the finished prod
uct. As it stands now. the currency
bill is subject to changes, and be-
lieVe that same are contemplated.
That is the official statement of A.
Barton Hepburn, chairman of the
Chase National Bank, issued on De
half of the ten members of the cur
rency commission of the National
Bankers Association, who partici-
pated in another all-day and evening
conference at the Waldorf yesterday.
At the close of the session at Z
o'clock. Colonel Frederick E. Farms
worth. secretary of the commission,
announced that no more Information
would be forthcoming, other than any
statement which Mr.. Hepburn should
see fit to give out. All OF the men
present pledged themselves not to
discuss the matter outside of the con-
ference room.
When completed. copies of the
changes favored by the bankers will
be widely distributed and will be sent
to Washington, although not in
formal way. Any effect on the COM
pleted bill will come from the per-
sonal influence of the bankers, eX-
erted. as John Perrin, of Los Angeles,
admitted. in every possible way.
John Perrin. of Perrin, Drake ana
Riley. San Francisco, denied that
banking interests were aligning in
any sort of west against east for
nation on the matter of currency
measures. Both he and Colonel
Farnsworth were emphatic in declar-
ing that there was no dissension.
It is tacitly admitted. however,
that the conferences are held by op-
ponents of the bill for the purpose
of reaching a satisfactory compro-
mise with its advocates, If COM
promise be possible. 1t is felt in
many quarters that some points may
be conceded by both sides and sat
isfactory solution evolved. The four
points about which dissension CEN
tres are reserves, government con-
troll. issuance of new notes and ma
tional bank note redemption. or
these. government control of the new
system is productive of the major
share of divided opinion.
