Decision Not Reached.

Mr.. McAdoo would say nothing more
further than that the committee had
reached no conclusions. Those who at
tended the hearings believed The most
probable solution of the question. iu
the light Of evidence so far adduced,
was the placing of three or four re-
glonaI banks on or near the Atlantic
scaboard, instead of having one large
district ccntcring in New York and in
c!uding New England and part or all
of the middle Atlantic states.
The cities mentioned in this connec-
tion were New York, Boston, Baltimore
and Atlanta. Washington and Phila
delphia also were mentioned, but it was
the opinion OF a majority of the wit.
ncsscs that Baltimore was entitled to
preference over either of these cities.
Washington was objected TO because
no large commercial interests center IN
that city, although some OF the wit
ncsses said il would be of advantage to
establish bank there to be in close
touch with the federal board.

Some of the bankers SAID that the

reasons most often advanced were New

cient size to handle the large business
Of this territory and command the re-
spect of Europe.
Secretary McAdoo' s reply was that
the new banking system Of the coun-
try would bc co-ordinated under the
federal board. which would stand be-
hind each regional bank, and that the
regional banks would assist each other
in time Of need. Viewing each bank
as an integral part of the system, with
its huge total sum of resources, he said.
the matter OF capital of the New York
bank was not entitled to the emphasis
which had been laid upon it.
Mr.. McAdoo expoundod his views at
length today to witnesses who cX-
pressed opposition TO features of the
law. Some of the witnesses said frank =,
ly that they were in favor of one cen
tral bank but the secretary defended
the plan of having regional banks, as
against this idea,

Hletala told the governor that the
ballot BOXES had been open for four
days for ballot on the strike question
and That count on April Il showed
approximately 1850 votes for the strike
and about l25 against the proposition.
He said the membership Of the various
locals was then about 1000, approx
mately 1900 having failed TO vote be-
cause of absence or Indifference.
These figures led the governor to
inquire about the present strength. He
was given figures taken from fhe dis
trict council records showing total
OF 9Slo men now in the district, Of
whom GlO were on the relief rolls.
Hietala estimated that some 5000 union
men had left the district. He ex-
planned the difference between the to-
tai membership and the relief roll as
representing the mon who had been
able TO support themselves without aid
from the union and instauccd the eases

made their first application for strike

Arguments in favor Of Baltimore

on tho supposed advisability of "a more
equal geographical distribution of the

New York and Philadelphia were in

long and some 120 yards wide, dimen-
sions only surpassed by those of the
great temples of Karnak In Upper
Egypt. Beneath this colossal platform
are vaulted tunnel-like passages, and 1t
was from these passages until quite
recently that the temple area was
reached.
Entrance was gained to the Great
temple from the east by wide flight
of steps. When the Arabs conquered
the city they removed this staircase
and also the row of columns that
fianked either side. With this mate
rial they constructed wall as a means
of defense. The Germans have torn
away this wall and built narrow
staircase where the broad one used to
be, SO that today one enters again as
did the Roman worshipers OF old. In
deed, every visitor to the ruins today
owes the Germans debt of gratitude.
for in removing the Arabic work they
have made the original plan of these
early builders more easily compre-
hensible. Tons of debris have been re-
moved and weak parts in the ruins
strengthened. Proceeding inwards, one
passes through a triple entrance into
the Great court, or Court of the Altar.
Some idea of its immense size may be
gagged when 1t is stated that 1t meas
ures 440 feet in length and is about
$40 feet In width. The central portal
as well as one of the small side portals
have fallen in, and the pieces which
formed the arches have been collected
and laid together on the ground below
the places where they originally stood.
In the court here large altar was dis
covered. On each side Of II Is pool
or basin for additions In connection
with the religious rites here observed.
All that is left Of the Great temple
itself are six gigantic columns, still
standing. capped with Corinthian capi
tails and Joined by an ornate and
massive entablaturs.

be selected, although Saginaw is ready
to act as host and movement has al

The principal reason why the De

other city is that they want to get
away from any charge that Detroit

a head through the charge recently

Arbor and Bird Day Named.

May s has been designated by Gov
ernor Ferris as arbor and bird day.
He issued the proclamation calling
attention to the day. The proclama-
ton in part follows:
"One of my dearest memory pictures
Is father sitting in the cooling shade
of beautiful pine that he and plant
ed long years ago. The sweet, plaintive
music of this tree comes back to me
in moments of solitude. These are
real friends of man, beasts and bird.
In recent years we have come to real
lie this. 1t is hoped that Americans
will acquire enthusiasm in preserving
useful and beautiful trees IN both city
and country, that they will plant every
year useful and beautiful trees by the
roadside, in school yards, about their
homes, in parks and farm fields.
Let US cherish loyalty and love
for our feathered songsters; yes, a
tender regard for the birds who cannot
sing, birds that destroy in the aggre-
gate millions OF destructive insects
The economy and esthetic value OF
bird life is beyond calculation.

New Coal Found In STATE.

NcW Coai FouHo w otdto.
DR.. r. c. Allen. state geologist, is 10
receipt of frequent letters which tell
of the discovery OF coal In central
Michigan.
Nearly all of the letters read EN-
thusiastic" like boy finding a quarter
under board walk Doctor Allen is
also in receipt of samples" of the
finds obtained by farmers drilling for
wells.
Central Michigan Is for the most
part in the coal basin, hence the
finds" Coal. according to Doctor Al
len, Is found in considerable quantities
under an area consisting of $500
square miles, which is bounded on the
extreme north by Roscommon county,
on the east by Tuscola and Genesee
counties, on the west by Newaygo
county, and on the extreme south by
Jackson county.
Coal Is found often in Ingham and
Eaton counties. but for the most part
this fuel could not be mined with
profit owing to the clay and gravel
which cover 1t.
Veins to a thickness of three feet
have been discovered in the process
OF well drilling, but the coal can never
be mined and is not of a good quality
generally. The finding of coal within
the area mentioned, says Doctor Allen,
should not arouse any particularly en-.
thusiastic dreams of wealth, for coal
underlies nearly all of the $500 square
miles of the area
