testing wish to get out Of paying per
cent for the 1912 assessment unless

ton OF the legislature is declared to
have been that the reduction should

MAYOR GAYNoR
SAILS FOR EUROPE

New York. Sept. 4.-Mayor Gay
nor surprised his friends and polit-
ical enemies alike today by sailing
for Europe on the steamship Baltic.
Astonishment that he should leave
New York on the even Of his cam
paign for reelection was somewhat
allayed by the announcement that
his trip would last only 20 days.
The mayor wilt return on the same
ship, due to arrive here September
rs.
The mayor changed his. plans a:
the eleventh hour because he be-
lieved that sea trip would give
him greater relief from the throat
trouble that has recurred at inter-
walls since he was shot more than
three years ago. The bullet that
lodged in his throat is still there and
his voice never has served him for
public speaking since that time.

Commercial Banks
Must Bear Burden
Declares Banker

Washington. Sept. l.-Fostus j.
Wade. Of the Mercantile Trust Com
pany, OF ST. Louis. one of the rep
rcsentativcs of the Chicago confer
cnce Of bankers. told the senate
banking committee today that the
administration currency bill would
nut the whole burden OF organiza-
,ion on the Commercial banks" Of
the country.
The national banks are simply
the commercial banks moving the
merchandise and the commerce Of
the nation" he said. This bill. ia
its principles. ignores the great
banking strength that has really de-
veloped the country-thC state
banks and trust companies that have
financed building. land development,
farming and international improve
ments.''
Inducements necessary to draw in
the state and national banks had ap-
parently been lost sight Of, he.
thought. Wade declared the issue OF
currency and the handling OF the
bank reserves should be divided and
not Joined as in the new bill.
at would be a fatal economical
mistake for the government to issue
the currency of the nation he said,
because IL would put the govern
ment in debt Just that much more
than Is necessary
He declared the bankers appeared
not as bankers. but as public spirited
citizens in urging the change.
I'VE say: Don't put the credit OF
the government beside this great Is
sue OF notes The time may easily
come when the nations credit will
need all the strength it can command
for emergencies
