of other defects in his letter to the
President which he thinks ought to be
changed. He thinks there is no reason
to make the Secretary of Agriculture a
member of the reserve board, although
it IS well he should be a member of
tie banking organization committee.
Because Of their positions. he thinks
the Secretary of the Treasury and the
Comptroller Of Currency ought to be
members of the board, but insists that
the Secretary of Agriculture is not
supposed to be an expert on currency
matters and that to put him on the
board "just adds unnecessarily one
more purely political officer to the
board-a member of the board fluc-
tuating with appointments"
He Shows further that if the Secre-
tary of Agriculture were removed, it
would give one more appointment to
the President, and that it could then
be provided that two instead of one
member of the board be persons ex-
perienced in banking.

PUP any city, but did believe with all
his heart in, good roads for building
up and developing the country on which
the cities depend. He said that good
roads are promotive of material well
fare and this, his figures and illustra-
tons proved, but the thing that most
concerns him is the effect of good
roads on the social, intellectual and
religious life of the people. If a
farmer should come to town with a
load and find the city streets so bad
his wagon would bog up to the hubs,
that farmer" said he, would begin
at once to complain at those RESPONSE
BILE for the condition of the streets
and he even might do some 'cussing' to
get even, but out in the country, if the
same condition prevails, no one is
blamed. Is this because the folks in
the country think they are not entitled
to good roads,"
The concluding thought in Mr.. Nc
Millan's address was that 1t is beyond
comprehension why intelligent men
will be willing to pay more in wear
and tear and loss of time for bad
road than they are for bond tax
with which to give good roads that

the provision which allows loans of
twelve months duration to be made
on certain farm lands. This section,
he says "in some respects violates the
principles of true banking and has
been called for more by political farm
ers than by real farmers.
Twelve months paper secured by
mortgages or deeds of trust upon lands
do not constitute live or a quick or
a banking asset; they constitute really
an investment asset. In some of the
states, in Mississippi, for example,
such a mortgage could not be fore
closed in less than six months after
maturity of the note and If there was
a desire to delay. not within less than
twelve months. This would keep the,
bank handling such twelve-month pa
per possibly out Of its money for twen-
ty-four months and certainly for eigh-
teen.
1T Is true that some provisions of
this bill render this provision less OBJ
noxious to the principles of true bank
ing than it otherwise would be, be-
cause, as | read the BILL these notes
could be carried to the reserve banks
and there rediscounted so that the
member banks in case of a run might
convert the slow asset into a quick
one, so far as it was concerned. It
must be remembered, however, that
this might leave the reserve banks in
possession of a lot of slow assets
which might prove dangerous to
them"
No Benefit to Farmers.
Senator Williams insists that the
provision doesn't benefit any class of
farmers. He divides farmers, roughly.
into two classes. "The members of
the first class own farms from 100
acres up, are unembarassed, out of
debt and their lands unencumbered

An Arbitrary Power.

He objects to the clause giving the
federal reserve board power in its dis
erection to remove any director in class
IF it should appear at any time
that such director does not fairly rep
resent the commercial, agricultural or
industrial interests of his district"
This power should be given, Senator
Williams thinks, only in cases of dis
honesty, incompetency, disability or
because director was using his place
for his own selfish advantage or for
the selfish advantage or promotion of
the selfish interests of any member
bank" The language as it is, Senator
Williams asserts, amounts in sub
stance to discretionary and arbitrary
power of removal without trial"
Senator Williams would make the
federal reserve banks "a little bit more
inviting to the member banks. This
could be done, in my opinion, without
in any way initiating against the pur-
poses of the bill or it's operation by
either increasing the annual dividend
on the paid in capital stock to which
the member banks should be entitled
to per cent instead of five per cent,
or by providing that after the surplus
has been built up to twenty per cent
of the paid-in capital stock of the re-
serve bank, that Of the remaining one
half. fifty per cent instead of sixty
should go to the United States and
fifty per cent to the member banks
instead of forty as provided in the
bill"
He suggests extending the discount
power to include notes and drafts |

ceipts deposited with member banks |

the South, he shows, is largely moved |
by loans made by local banks upon |
notes of cotton buyers who are DUR
chasing for Liverpool and the Ameri-
can mills upon notes and drafts Sc |
cured by cotton warehouse receipts.
Reserve Banks Should Help Treasury. |
He would make the reserve banks
be of assistance to the treasury de-
partment by requiring that not less
han ten per cent of the amount held
and segregated for redemption of re-
serve notes shall consist of gold coin

III this were DONE" he says, 1.-The
reasury would receive a very material

hat these reserve notes can be pre-.
ented at the treasury or at the reserve
'anks for redemption, and that under
he general parity clause of existing
aw, the holder of the notes will have
right to demand gold If he chooses
o do So"
Senator Williams approves the
lause in the bill which refunds two
er cent bonds into three per cent, but
'ould add "the further provision that
instead of depriving these three per
ent bonds from being used as a basis

made that when so used they should 1
