HI THE
 WAGE BANNERS
 HARDEST IF ALL
They and Their Families Are the First to Feel the Pinch of Want When the Financial Crisis Comes
BY WILLIAM L. DOUGLAS Former Governor of Massachusetts

To say that the man who will benc- it most from a wise reform of our banking system is the man without d bank account sounds paradoXical but l believe it is unquestionably true. The man without savings or other accumu- lated resources has nothing to depend on but his employment. If he is dis employed. then his family is certain to feel the pinch of want
 Ours is the only civilized country which suffers from money panics. Our banking system is a panic breeder. And the brunt of the vast misery and hardship which panics bring fall upon the wage earner. It was so in 1907. It has been 50 in every panic We have known.
 When such a crisis sweeps over the land. the banker receives early warn ing Under our unscientific scattered reserve system. it is imperative that he protect his reserves. He knows that the time is coming when deposi- tors will be clamoring for cash. So he calls in all outstanding loans he can, and selfishly grasps for gold. It is not his fault that he must do this it is the fault of the system under which he conducts his operations. Praise should be accorded to our Ma tionaI bankers for the fact that the notes they issue have always been re deemable at their face value. and that they have suffered but few disastrous failures. But. owing to the defective system under which they carry on their work they have been derelict time and again to their larger duty, which lies in their obligation to main tain such conditions that wages will be promptly paid and opportunities for employment generally steady. As the

But if he cannot obtain capital he must curtail it or shut down his plant altogether His largest cash outlay is pretty certain to be his payroll. So he sets about to reduce that. He may do it by laying. off part of his force, and he may furZ ther retrench by cutting wages. He may, as so many manufacturers did in 1907, close his plant
 Now this occasions the manufacturer a certain temporary inconvenience nothing more. He is losing the interest on the money invested in his plant, and the profits from his business. But he has an extended credit with trades men and life goes on with him pretty much as it did before the crisis came.
 How different is the situation for his employees, Even if they have an account at a savings bank, they are as likely as not to be told that they can not get the cash. The banks may be forced to suspend specie payments. And. granting that the cash is obtain able. the wage earner's slender say ings are soon dissipated when there is no weekly pay check to supplement them.

SENATE IN FAVOR OF

BOISE Feb. 25-The state senate
has gone squarely on record in favor
OF the death penalty for murder, when
Hedrick's bill abolishing capital pun

considered in the committee of the
whole and was recommended for 'in-
definite postponement" Upon the re-
turn of the body to its Regular session
Hedrick objected to the adoption o.
the report and demanded a roll call
for the purpose, so he said, of placing
ON record those who favor the con-
tinuation of the barbarous system"
The report of the committee of the
whole was adopted by vote of is t.

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY AIDED
BY NEWSPAPER PUBLICITY

To get before the public the results
of it's scientific Investigations at the
earliest possible date the United
States geological survey avails itself
of the courtesy of the public press,
leaving the later and more complete
statements to be covered by it's own
publications 1t Is believed that this
policy is fully warranted as in the In
terest of the public itself since useful
! information can thus be disseminated
among millions of readers, whereas a
survey report of the usual sized edi-
ton reaches only few thousand
| readers, and those only after a period
! of months, II not a year or more after
the completion of the work of the
government geologist or engineer. On
! the other hand, the preliminary state
ment can be issued to the press with
III IL lew udyS anu SCSoiS u 5ChNio'
distribution of the information over
the entire country. To illustrate, re-
cent statement issued to the press by
the geological survey gave an authori-
tative estimate of the 1912 output of
petroleum for the United States and
this news item is known to have been
published by newspapers with an ag-
gregate circulation of at least $780,
600. The complete detailed statement
of the production of petroleum for
1912 can not, however, be compiled and
printed for at least six or eight
months, and then the edition of the
report will not exceed probably 10000
copies.
For the past few years the geologi-
cal survey has issued the early part
of January preliminary estimates of
the output of the principal mineral
products, and reviews of the industr,
in the United States. The hgureS
have been, wherever practicable, bas-
ed on the reports of actual production
for the first IL months of the year,
with estimates for the twelfth month.
and thus is several instances the estt-
mated total production has proven out
well within / per cent of the final fig
ures when determined.

PENSE.

Young America is taught that the
United States pays the president $751;
600 yearly for appointing postmasters,
reviewing fleets. riding at the head of
parades and incidentally supervising
governmental machinery.
One seldom hears of any other sums
connected with the presidents Office.
but an inspection of report recently
issued by the secretary of the treasury
shows the chief executive to be Just
bit more expensive than popular
supposition credits him with being.
Congress willing. and since the eco
nomy banner has been hoisted it may
not be, the United States will spend
sS20,790 In the fiscal year 1914. which
begins July 1, to maintain its execu-
tive establishment. including the pres
ident, the White House and Trimmings.
The fiscal year Of 1913 cost about
quarter million less than that.
The presidents salary is $4,000 a
year. The other dollars are for lin
cidentals."
His assistants, secretaries, clerks,
stenographers, messengers, etc, are
expected ia cost $71.O4O next year, a
saving of about $1,000. That doesn't
include his chief assistant, the vice
president at $4,000 year. Station
cry, kilograms, telephones, motor cars
and books will add $4,000 more.
Ordinary care and extraordinary re-
pairs in 1913 cost $4,000.

king who ruled, but didn't reign the
navy burns up few thousands in

PUTTING IT TO THE TEST.

The democratic party will now have
almost clear field for the downward
revision Of the tariff. The status, as W.
see 1t, Is just this: If wages remain IN
after the tariff reduction, then the
contention Of democracy is correct and
that party is in the saddle for many
wears to come. IL a reduction in the
tariff brings reduction in wages
then 1t is natural that reduction In
wages will force q reduction In the
price of labor's products In the lat
ter event the conditions will cause the
democratic voters to sit up late and
take notice. --Headland (Ala) Stand
