Rosenwald and Carnegie to Aid
Him and Will Devote Mil
lions to Purpose.
FIRST BANK IN CHICAGO
War on Sharks Will Be Waged vigor-
ously and Hundreds of Small Banks
May Be Abandoned.
UNITED PRESS L1AsrD wrRH.l

New York, Jan. 2.-Vincent Astor
gave the press report today that
Julius Rosenwald, Of Chicago, and An
drew Carnegie and himself plan a war
on loan sharks, having determined to
use millions of their own money to en-
able working men to borrow without
loss of self.respect.
"The report is correct" Astor tele.
graphed in response to a, United Press
query by wire, addressed to him at
Rhinbeck.
"I believe that such plan will be
great benefit to those who, in the
past, have been victims of predatory
loan sharks.
Details of Project.
Rosenwald just now is in Europe;
Carnegie in the south. Astor, however,
was prepared to give details of the pro-
ject. He gave credit for the plan the
trio have in mind to Italian Finance
Minister Jussotti, founder of an italian
system Of banks, which loan sums as
low as $40 to workingmen or to others,
who, without security, can furnish fell
low workers endorsements.
While the project has its philanthro-
pic side, Astor said it had its business
aspect as well, as it is estimated it
would pay s per cent. As soon as the
profits rise above that figure, he ex.
planned, the promoters intend to lower
their interest rates.
May Have Many Banks,
The first bank, it was stated, prob
ably would be opened soon in Chicago
The aggregate capital of this and the
other banks, it was intended to place al
$5,OO0,O00. This, it was made clear
would practically be only nominal
figure, since the entire fortunes of all
three projectors were involved as guar
antees Of the success Of the scheme.
Besides the big banks, it was pre-
dicted that hundreds of small ones
would be established as the enterprise
broadens.
It was said the new currency law
will not affect the plan

Long Wished to Do It.

"The necessity of attending many
board meetings has been so severe a
burden upon our time that we have
long wished to withdraw from the di.
rectorates of many corporations, Most
of these directorships we have accepted
with reluctance and only because we
felt constrained to keep in touch with
properties which we had organized and
whose securities we have recommended
to the public, both here and abroad. An
apparent change in public sentiment in
regard to directorships seems now to
warrant us seeking to resign from some
of these corporations, Indeed, it may
be in view Of the change in sentiment
upon this subject, that we shall be in a
better position to serve such properties
as security holders, if we are lot direc.
tors. We have already resigned from
the companies mentioned, and we ex-
pect from time to time to withdraw
from other boards upon which we feel
there is no special obligation to re-
main. -

CAN SEE WITH PIGS EIE.
Wonderful Surgical Operation Said to
Be Successful.

Baltimore. March 29.-Sight has
been given to the left eye Of David
Kane, the nine-months-old baby OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Herman Kane, of
Gettys, Pa, through the grating of
the cornea of pigs eye to the
child's eyeball, according to physi-
clans at a hospital here. Certain
tests, they declare, have brought out
this fact without a doubt. When the
bandage was removed from the eye,
it was declared, the child followed
the course of a lighted candle which
was moved in front of him. Another
test that brings out the fact more
clearly is that the child now winks
his eyelid when a finger or small
object is put near the eye.
The disease from which the child
has been a sufferer since he was 3
weeks old is known as staphyloma Of
the cornea. Both eyes became af-
fected, but the left seemed to be
in hopeless condition, and it was
only as a last resort that the opera
ton was decided on.
The operation was performed a
week ago Monday, and the corner of
the pigs eye was used because it is
said it more closely resembles the
human cornea than that of any other
animal.
Child and pig were placed under
an anesthetic and the outer covering
of the animals eye was removed. 1t
was quickly placed in the eyeball of
the child.
The child's eye to-day is said to be
perfectly clear and free from in
fammation.

Had Contract to Live Together.

Greenville, March Pa touching
scene in which an old man of 81
years and maiden of 16 played the
leading roles was enacted yesterday
afternoon in police court. Chiefly
through kindness of heart did the
Judge order the case against the old
man and girl dismissed, stating as
he rendered his verdict that he did
not care to- give his opinion of the
affair. Both were profuse in their
thanks as they left the court room.
An odd pair the old man and girl
made as they stood side by side be-
fore the bar of justice, he almost
decrepit, wrinkled and bald, she
young, fair and showing the fresh
ness of youth.
The old man gave his name as j.
R. Smith and the girl called herself
Maude Q'Shields. 1t seems the old
man had signed a contract with the
girl to live with him, do his cooking
and care for his little place called
home. Smith is a shoemaker and
has been living alone in his little
shop on Greene avenue until he took
the girl to the place. The shop is
a small affair and has living room
appendage in the rear.
According to the police the girl has
been seen on the streets at all times
of night and the officers, becoming
suspicious of her actions, found
where she was staying and arrested
her together with the old man.
The Judge remarked that the case
looked bad at first thought, but de-
cided to dismiss the pair with nothing
more than a warning against such
procedure in the future. The old man
promised to destroy the contract he
had with the girl, while she agreed
to return to her people.
The contract is a crudely drawn
affair and reads as follows:
The State of South Carolina,
County of Greenville.
Article of agreement between j.
R Smith on the first part, Miss
Maud O'Shields on the second part:
Il do agree to employ part second
to do my cooking at two dollars per
week and board. Second party also
agrees to be on hand when needed.
