Federal Reserve Institutions to
Get Engraved Currency in
Excess of $37, 100000
[By Latest MALL

WASHINGTON. ID. Millions Of
dollars worth Of paper money will
be put INTO circulation upon the es-
Establishment OF the fedS.aI reserve
banks.
Under the federal reserve bank act
each of the twelve federal banks will
receive advances from the federal re-
serve board in the form of reserve
notes, a distinctly new sort of, paper
money. Commercial paper will be the
collateral advanced by the banks as
security for these notes.
New Notes are Prepared.
Comptroller of the Currency Will
liams has samples OF the new paper
money under consideration. At his
request Joseph Z. Ralph, director of
the bureau OF engraving and printing,
prepared notes of s., 80, $50, $50 and
500 denominations. These have been
submitted to Secretary McAdoo. 1t IS
not likely, however, that the samples
will be accepted officially until the
members of the reserve board have
been confirmed by the Senate and can

MILLIONS IN new PAPER MONEY
IN CIRCULATION With new BANKS

confer with Secretary McAdoo and
Comptroller Williams concerning the
ueW notes.
At present no official OF the treas
ury department is able 10 make any
estimate OF the amount OF federal re-
serve notes which probably will be
put into circulation this year. Reserve
banks are required under the Law TO
keep gold reserves OF not less than
40 per cent against federal reserve
notes in actual circulation. The
amount of these notes required by the
federal reserve banks will depend
largely on the amount of money re
quired by member banks for the re
discounting Of commercial paper.
Sum May Exceed s37 200, 900.
At harvest time last year Secretary
McAdoo permitted banks in the West
and South to borrow money on com
mercial paper and about $37 100000
was loaned. The immediate demand
for federal reserve notes probably will
be far in excess OF that sum, as the
harvest loans were limited to the
farming sections, while the entire
United States will draw on the re-
serve board for money. to rediscount
agricultural, industrial and CONNER
cial paper. The money for harvest
emergencies was limited to % states

WALDRON OFFER
NOW DECLARED
TO Be ILLEGAL
Attorney Points to Supreme
Court Decision Against
Such a Proposal

Fred L. Waldron offer 10 run for the
mayoralty on salary -to-the-pOor basis
not only stirred up other candidates
for the office but brought out two de-
clarations that his offer is illegal.
From a well-knOwn attorney the
Star-Bulletin has received the follow
ing statement:
Referring to the statement in this
mornings Advertiser in regard TO the
candidacy OF Mr. Fred l.. Waldron for
mayor, may ! call your attention to
the fact that several of the Supreme
Courts OF the Stltes have held that
where one is elected to a public Of
flee on a pledge made by him that
thew hole or any part of his salary
will be waived or donated to any stat
ed charity. the election will be de
clared void, as such a pledge is held
10 be contrary to public policy in that
it amounts to corruption and bribery
of the electorate
The attorney accompanies thi; with
copy of a Supreme Court decision
in Wisconsin. which upholds the le
gal contention made today and cites
several instances TO show that the law
regards it as against public policy for
a candidate to offer to perform the
duties of office for a sum less than.
the salary.
Another voice of opposition to Mr.
Waldron's plan is from man who has
declared himself as a candidate for
city effice-not the mayoralty. He

Editor Honolulu Star Bulletin:
Sir: Mr. WaldrOn's offer sounds
lofty, patriotic and unsefish. but all
the same it is an attempt to bride the
voters to confer on him the dignity Of
first citizen of the city and county.
There is no more reason why NUM-
cipal officers should give their salar
les to charity than there is why terri
torial officers should do the same
thing. Moreover, the insinuatiOn that
the majority of candidates are out for
the salaries is a gratuitous insult.
There are just as high-minded citi-
Zens in the lists as their detractOrs.
For my part. am regular contrib
utor to several benevolent and char
table institutions and have always
been ready to help bury the dead and
assist the INDECENT survivors of unfor-
tunate acquaintance. but would con-
slider it degrading to exploit simple
duty performed in these respects in
an election campaign document. Mr..
Waldron should have thought twice
before putting himself in the position
of philanthropist on the contingency
of being given a public office. If he is
ambitious to be mayor. let him come
out en- his merits, and if elected do
what he will with his own. only re-

Description Of the New Notes.
! The new s. note submitted by Mr.
Ralph is typical of agriculture. The
portrait on the face of the note is
LincOln's and the back shows har
vesting machine and allegorical fig
ures typical of farming. The $40
note bears a portrait of Cleveland and
a manufacturing scene The $40
note bears Jackson's portrait and is
typical of commerce. having steam
ship. train and other mediums of trade
on the back Grants picture is shown
oh the $50 note, and Franklin's por-
trait adorns the 500 bill Both of
these larger bills are typical of the
arts. All the bills will be printed in
green ink on the back while black ink
will be used on the faces.
For some time the treasury depart
ment has been anxious to make al
paper money more uniform. Differ
ent portraits appear on different sorts
of paper money Of the same denomin-
alton. 1t is likely that the portraits
selected for use on the federal reserve
notes also will be used on other paper
money. So, in the future, all bank
notes, gold certificates. silver certffi-
Gates and federal reserve notes of S.
denomination probably will bear Lin.
coins portrait and so on through the
series up to 500. .. 1
Gold to Redeem the Notes.
OF the 40 per cent gold reserve
banks maintain against their out
standing federal reserve notes. at
least 5 per cent will be kept in the
United States treasury for the re.
demption of such notes.
1t is provided under the new law
that when one federal reserve bank
receives federal reserve bank notes
issued by another bank it must return
them Immediately to the issuing bank
and heavy penalty is provided for a
bank which pays out notes other than
its own.

CITY MANAGER
Albert WaterhouSe Suggests
Variation for Plan Pro-
posed by WaIdron

Publication yesterday afternoon in
the Star Bulletin of the fact that Fred
l.. Waldron was considering a candi-
CaCy for the mayOralty brought forth
J later in the day a definite statement
! from Mr. WaldTon that has stirred up
unusual interest in political and bust
ness circles. He offers himself as a
/ candidate for mayor on a non-partisan
q ticket and will donate TO charity his
salary ifelected. AS a provisO he
asks that others on the ticket do the
same.
AS variation to the plan proposed
by Mr.. Waldron. the following suggps-
I ton was made in an interview today
with Albert Waterhouse:
Il was much interested in my
friend Fred Waldron's announcement
! in the morning paper but feel that he
has made blunder in his suggestion
that the mayor and supervisors sala-
ry be donated to some charity. This
$1,000 per annum should be given, to-
gether with an appropriate salary. to
city manager. If Fred is working
on the principle that charity begins
at home, his proposition to my mind
is o. X.
The gross revenue from all sources
for the city and county next year will
be very close to $1.200,0O0. or $780,
600 per month, and We are attempting
to spend this through a structure of
municipal government that cannot
possibly produce efficient results. We
have board of supervisors who give
to the city their overtime-their time
outside their regular business, and a
mayoralty office which is hardly even
factor because it gives the mayor
scant opportunity and little power.
I'VE do not need a change of char
ter to secure an efficient city mana
ger along the lines | have suggested. }
What we do need is men like Fred
Waldron who will get into harness
and run the county government along
some such plan as this. The mayor
and supervisors can continue as the
board, the mayor still continue as the
formal executive head of the city. II
they will give their salaries to a city
manager, the detail work will be TAX
en- off their hands and the time the
supervisors have to give to their pub
lie duties will be sufficient"
Il will become a candidate for |
mayor of the City and County of Ho-
nolulu. at the head of strictly nom
partisan, businessmen ticket, pro-
vided all the other candidates who
run on such ticket join with me in !
a pledge to donate the full amount of |
their salaries to any Hawaiian chart |
ty, the particular charity to be desig-
mated previous to the election BY the
Hawaiian Associated Charities.
Il believe that the government of
this community will never be placed
On an orderly, businesslike basis until
citizens who care more for the honor
of serving the community than for
the emoluments of office offer them
selves as candidates for election.
'On this platform of unpaid service
