Letter=Carriers Must
Pay Fares on Street
Cars After Tomorrow

Tomorrow is the last day the local
letter-carriers will be permitted to
ride on the trolley cars without de-
posting their nickel in the little box,
unless the postoffice department at
Washington takes immediate action.
At present the government pays a
lump sum periodically for the fares
of the local postmen. The contract
expired, however, on July l, and
never was renewed, but the govern
ment kept up the payments as
though the contract was still effect
i've.
On the first of this month the post
office department was served with no.
tice that if new contract was INST
signed before October Is or the old
one renewed the letter carriers would
be treated as ordinary passengers.
No word has been received from
Washington as yet by either the
Public Service Railway Company or
Postmaster Frank j. Book, and 1t be-
gins to look now as If the let ar
carriers would have to pay every
time they take a ride.
Postmaster Book, though, SAYS he
will find a way to refund the nickels
the carriers pay out for their rides
on duty.

currency DELAY
FAVORS RADICALS"
Glass Tells National Conferees
Bills Greatest Obstructionists
Are Friends of Change.

NEW YORK. Oct 14.--Chairman
Carter Glass. of the House commit
tee on banking and currency, reply
ing today to opponents of the admin
istration's currency measure. charged
their opposition to the fact that the
passage of the bill meant an imme-
date loss OF profits to many bankers,
although in the long run the change
would benefit bankers as we'll as the
public.
"The real opposition to this bill, F"
he said, in a speech before the ma
tional currency conference of the New
York Academy of Political Science,
sis not as to government control,
upon which we shall never yield. 1t
Is not as to compulsory membership,
which is provided in another way in
the Aldrich scheme-a scheme that
was unanimously Endorsed by the
American Bankers Association. 1t
is not in the required capital subscrip-
ton of the per cent. dividend. 1t
is none OF these.
at is that most vital requirement
OF the bill that In the future funds
on deposit in other national banks
cannot be counted as legal reserve.
This means an immediate loss OF
profits to many bankers-I say imme-
date, for in the long run the change
will benefit bankers as well as the
public-and 1t is the prospect of that
loss that explains most of the organ
lied opposition to the bill.
.sThe fight is to drive us from our
firm resolution to break down the
artificial connection between the
banking business of this country and
the stock speculative operations at
the money centres. The monetary
commission, with more discretion
than courage, absolutely evaded the
problem, but the banking and cur
rency committee Of the House has
gone to the very root of this gigantic
evil, and In this bill proposes to cut
the cancer out This we propose to
do cautiously graduating the opera
ton to prevalent conditions and ex-
tending it over a period OF thirty-six
months
ssPiaint Is Not as to Time"
"Out of abundant precaution We
have actually allowed longer time
than the best practical bankers of the
country said was needed. But the
plant of these critics is not as to the
time but as to the fact. They do not
want existing arrangements dis
turbed. they are willing to perpetuate
defective unscientific system sane
toned by law but condemned by ex-
perience and bitterly offensive to the
American people-a system which
everybody knows encourages and pro-
notes the worst description of stock
gambling"
To those who hoped for delay, Mr..
Glass would say they pursued false
hope; the most vigorous opposition to
the bill had come from those who
wanted a more radical measure. And
IL legislation were postponed till the
American people were goaded by
another panic the currency legisla-
tion which would then be enacted
would be far more radical than the
measure now pending before Con-
gress.
AS to the charges that the bill con-
ferred autocratic powers upon the
Federal reserve board, an alleged
political board. and that compulsory
membership was unjust, Mr.. Glass
said, in part:
"The Federal reserve board is es-

of securing a board OF this kind
namely, to have it appointed by the
President of the United States, who
alone Is the elected representative Of
the entire nation. That is the way we
select the secretary of the treasury
and the comptroller of the currency,
In whom has been vested for half a
century by the national banking act
nearly every power conferred by this
bill upon the Federal reserve board"
A. Barton Hepburn, chairman OF
the Chase National Bank of New
York and one of the leading oppo-
nents of the administrators cur
rency measure, declared this after
noon that the provision of the bill
making the government responsible
for treasury notes to be issued was
fundamentally wrong and that 1t In
vited future disaster.
1.-The government should unques-
tionably coin and furnish metal
money" Mr.. Hepburn said. But the
experience of the world proves that
paper currency, redeemable in metal
money, may better be furnished
through bank like the Bank of
France or the Reichsbank of Ger
many, separately Incorporated, under
strict government control or regula-
ton, but possessing current assets
which have an every day market and
upon which it may at any time
realize.
1.-THE provision making the govern
ment responsible for the treasury
notes to be issued is fundamentally
wrong, and this policy will inevitably
invite future disaster"

Wide eyed and unbcicving, Cal Henry

Kinslcy, waiting at the gate, met his full re-

stranger to you; but if YOU will lend me ten
dollars, | will certainly send it to you the
first thing next week,
John KinSley, selling heavy hardware out
Of Cincinnati, believed in the boy and gave
him the ten.
The following Saturday night Kinsley
wrote Henry and reminded him OF the loan.
\ week later he wrote again.
1t so happened that a month later klns-
lev's house ordered him TO Chicago. kinS-
lev still remembered Cal Henry, and re-
tanning an interest in the boy he dropped
into the Office Of the glove company and IN
quircd for him.

YOU anything
why, yes, a little; but

Not by a long shot! He went one too
many out at Glcncllyn week ago, forged

him. He's in the lookup out there now
But his wife, what OF herr asked kinslcy.
We've tried to help her; but She won't

she'll stand by Cal, and positively will not

comes up next week. Henrys got two
brothers there; both we'll off too. He's cost
them several thousand dollars, and they say
they've reached the limit.
Knslcv thanked the manager, and went
out to Glenellyn, where he called on Gals
two brothers, James and Louis Henry.
