SAMUEL UNTERMYER
DEFENDS THE BILL

BOSTON, Oct. 10.-The fundamental
principles Of the currency bill were cham
pioned tonight by Samuel Unter1nyer Of
nomic club. Mr.. Untermyer said that
the bill had "minor defects" but that
he favored IT primarily because Of what
II Will do toward relaxing the 'strangle
hold Of few men In New York on the
money and credits OF the country"
The true inwardness'' OF the opposI-
ton. he said, was found in the refusal to
permit bankers TO control the currency
system. But the bill In It's entirety gave
the bankers vastly more generous
representation than is accorded in any
known system Of finance Not satisfied
with having six of the nine directors Of
bankers are cunning for voice In de-
termining when, how. and to whom the
government shall Issue its obligations in
the form OF currency"
nents OF the bill as "the most powerful.
plausible and resourceful body OF men
IN the country-grand past masters in
the art Of manufacturing public sentl-
mcnt"
The only two debatabI questions OF
primary Importance In this controversy.
he asserted. were: Should there be
twelve reserve banks or less? And:
obligation? He expressed the opinion
that twelve reserve banks were prefer
able TO smaller number because they
would permit a responsible local man
agemeut and avoid the danger of bu-
reaucraoy that would be inevitable IL
there were. say. only four or five such
banks,
The objections to the bill expressed by
the conference OF the country banlrers at
Boston. Mr.. Untermyer said, were "trivi-
al, selfish and insincere,"

REALTY MEN WANT
BOOST COMMISSION
Believe City Solons Should Not Con-
stantly Seek to Cut Down
Expenses.

A city commission is wanted by the
Salt Lake Real Estate association
which will devise plans, as part of
its public duty, to enhance the growth
Of the city-to enlarge and prosecute
construction work. rather than to seek
continually to curtail expenditures,
Such was the sentiment expressed at
yesterdays bi-weekly luncheon of the
organization, which was held at the
Commercial club, and there was CON
siderable discussion Of the subject.
AS An item toward such development,
and one which could be achieved by
united action on the part of city Of
fcials and all business men of the town,
Freeman Morningstar made a sugges-
tion. He said that in construction of
the Salt Lake route this city lost much
Of advantage, Business men here, he
said had permitted Los Angeles and
other towns in California to absorb
all the trade through laity of local
all built from the other end, and trade
developed in towns along the route
went to Los Angeles and has been re,

Mr.. Morningstar, who has just re-
turned from Denver. said that a sim
liar condition was likely to develop in
construction Of the Moffat road, work
on which is now being pushed, Den
yer having bonded itself in the sum of
100000 to help the road along It's
promoters propose to come to Salt Lake
to get aid, he said, and there should
be an understanding had that part of
the business attaching to construction
Of the line should come to this city
and that Denver be not permitted to
take il all. The matter is to be fur

Proposed Legislation Indorsed
in Part by Two Bankers

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1o.-onserva-
tive expressions by Democrats known
to be in close sympathy with the ad-
ministration today led to the general
belief that the path Of the currency
bill has been smoothed out. at least
for time. Apparently there is to be
no attempt to unduly hurry the senate
in its work unless conditions should
develop later in the banking and cur
rency committee that threaten to de.
feat or greatly delay legislation.
While President Wilson wants early
action on the Glass bill, close friends
of the administration are making it
clear now that they do not draw an
arbitrary line at December l as the
date for its passage. Senator Hoke
Smith of Georgia said today the pass.
age of the currency reform bill IN
January would be as much an admin
istration victory as Its enactment in
November, and the same view is held
by many other senate Democrats who
are eounseling the administration
against drawing party lines On the bill
OF attempting to prevent reasonable
debate of the bill.
Bankers to Be Heard.
While the special session Of congress
will end November 30 and the regular
winter session begin December l, the
transition will make no change in the
status of the currency bill, and will
not effect the senate's work upon it.
The senate committee arranged today
its programme of hearings to cover the
time up to October 25. Bankers from
Kansas. Nebraska and other western
states will be heard.
The apparent determination to let
the currency situation solve itself may
meet sudden change if it should bo
found impossible to get an agreement
in the committee within two or three
weeks after formal work is begun on
the reconstruction of the BILL when the
hearings have been concluded.
Report November Is.
1t is believed that if the bill can be
brought into the senate by November
Is the administration will be willing
to let the Democratic leaders of that
body take charge of the situation, with
out trying to force passage Of the bill
before December.
The general PURPOSES Of the admins
tration bill were Endorsed today before
the senate committee by james G. Can
non, president of the Fourth National
Bank of New York and A. F. Daw.

remedy in a large measure the defects

TRAINING BIRDS TO CATCH FISH:

The wonderful ingenuity and patience
of the Chinaman is we'll shown by the
skilful wav in which he has trained the
cormorant to fish for him. The bird is
taken when young, and then, with in
finite care, taught to catch fish for it's
owners. A metal ring is placed round
its neck, fitting close enough to prevent
it from swallowing the larger fish, yet
sufficiently loose to allow the small ones
to pass down its throat-its reward for
working. A sort of harness is rugged
about the body of the bird. by means of
which it is lowered into the sea and
lifted out again into the boat. A cord
of spruce fiber, about dozen feet in
length, prevents the bird from straying
too far, while it also enables the fisher
man to control and guide its movements.
The fishing is always done at night. and
this is the reason why it is difficult to
get good set of pictures of cormorant-
fishing. When all is ready the birds are
lowered into the water, and as soon as
they have filled their capacious mouths
they are pulled into the boat and the fish
they have been unable to swallow taken
away from them. They are then put
