DEAL CRITICISED
Plan to Hold the Seventh District Be-
tween Them Is DistastefuI to
the Party.
Especial to The Gate City

i
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. 25.-Re,
pubi1cans OF the Iowa delegation in
congress are Of the opinion that If the
republicans OF the Seventh district
shall become convinced that Judge
Prouty and Cash Doweil entered into
an agreement as to how long the Judge
should hold the Seventh districts
seat In the house of representatives
and when he should turn it over TO
Mr.. Dowell, an entirely new candidate
VIII be demanded and in this connec-.
ton the name of Charles A. Rawson,
chairman of the republican state com
mlttee, is being most frequently men
toned. Mr.. Rawson has large bust
ness interests. He owns three brick
and tile factories and looking after
these keeps him pretty busy, but his
friends say that If he should feel that
there was genuine demand on the
part OF the people that he represent
the district in congress, he probably
would accept the call. Mr.. Rawson and
Senator Kenyon roomed together at a
boys academy in the years gone by
and they have been devoted friends
ever since. 1t was Mr.. Rawson who
managed Senator Kenyon's campaigl.
in the primary race against col. La
fayette Young.
Regarding the alleged articles of
agreement entered into between Judge
Prouty and Mr.. Dowell, one member
of the Iowa delegation said fr,end
OF his was invited to be the custodian
Of the written instrument, but de-
clined and, as the congressman I'M
derstands the matter, the agreement
now is held in escrow in Des Moines

Thor O. Hanson, the Bode banker, who
may enter the race against Represen-
tatiye Frank p. Woods for the repub-
lican nomination for congress in the

law making. He was a member of the
lower house OF the Iowa legislature for

opinion.
A case in point IL the recent attack

attack was made BY . politician who

that he could not qualify ~ an expert.
TIE court decided In favor OF the Coca
Cola Company ~ It was clearly shown
that the only essential difference be.

oblitsra.Ins Field Of Waterloo.

While Americans are observing the
semi.centennial OF Gettysburg. and
thousands study the battle by the aid
OF the monuments and markers on the
battlefield. complaint comes to Eng
land that the Waterloo terrain Is In
danger. While La Hale sainte and
Hougomont still bear the marks OF
cannon shot. both are In danger OF
being rebuilt. and part of the Hougo-
mont wall against which the wave OF
French courage dashed In vain has
already been pulled down. That is not
the worst OF the situation. according
TO n British ofiicer who recently visit
ed the field. "Tramcars" and choap
fares have been followed by "tawdry
cafes" located on the very spot
whence the Imperial Guard recoiied.
What is TO bc donci The suggestion

no nailed-down carpets. but movable

that there is no such thing as dry

poses in such volume as to hinder or

currency bill was made public by Rep
rssentative Glass, chairman Of the
House committee ON banking and cur
rency. It will be introduced in the
House and Senate aftsr President VIII
SON has delivered in person his ad-
dress to Congress.
An outline Of the measure prepared
by Mr.. Glass states that It will be gone
over In detail for alterations. and sets
out that its purposes 10 to accomplish
three principal objects:
Provision of means for redis-
counting commercial paper OF speci.
fled types.
A basis for elastic notes properly
safe-guarded.
Machinery for doing foreign bank
ing business.
The measures essentials provide for
twelve or more federal reserve banks
which will rediscount paper. deal in
government securities, exchange and
conduct government fiscal operations.
National banks and such state bank
and trust companies as conform to
standards would be stockholders Of the
reserve banks. The government would
hold no stock.
The government would control the
federal reserve banks entirely through
q federal reserve board Of seven NOM
bers in which the banks would have
no representation. The board would
be composed Of the secretary Of the
treasury. secretary Of agriculture and
comptroller OF the currency as mem
bsrs ex-officio. Four other members
would be chosen by the President and
confirmed by the Senate.
The national bank note circulation
would remain undisturbsd and no pro
posal Is made In the bill for retiring
approximately S700.0o0.oo0 two PEI
cent bonds upon which that note issue
now rests. An amendment or separate
hiii to refund these bonds into three
Der cent bonds may be introduced
later. ~
In addition to the s70o.o00.o0o e1
isting national bank notes. not more
than $500. 100000 In what are TO be
known % federal reserve treasury
notes might be issued at the discre
ton Of the federal reserve board. sole
ly for tho purpose Of making advances
to the federal reserve banks, which
would do no business with the public
deal only with their member-banks nnc
receive deposits only from the United
States.
While the notes on their face would
purport to be the obligations Of the
United States. they would be required
to be secured by gold reserve OF 81
Is per cent provided by the federal
reserve bank, and would be first and
paramount lien on the assets OF these
banks and would be redeemahle In
gold on demand Of the treasury de
partment mt the city Of Washington
