MORE WARDS NEEDED ID
 FACILITATE THE VOTING
Polls Workers Have Long Hard Grind of it, Counting Way Into the
 Morning Hours.

More Wardsl
 If the next election in Maricopa county is to be as well attended as the party of yesterday, there will be much agitation raised prior to the election for the division of at least two of the wards of the city of Phoenix
 Judges, clerks and challengers work ing at the polls in wards one and two were interviewed yesterday on this subject, and are unanimous for the di- vision of at least those two wards. At the noon hours, when the voting was heaviest at Ward One, there was noth- ing but work but lots of that for every body concerned. It was hard work vot- ing, let alone handling the voters. C. J. McElroy, inspector at the First Ward polls on Wednesday declared yesterday that Phoenix had so out grown it's four ward system that a change would be necessary immediate ly. It will be of great help to the polls officers to have fewer to handle. It may be remarked that although the vote was light, it was heavier than most votes on municipal affairs, in which the ward system is used.

DISCOVERY COMES

Buffalo House Takes the Taste Out of Castor Oil.

Since the earliest days of medicine chemists have been trying to take the taste out of castor oil.
 The secret has at last been discovered by Spencer Kellogg 6 Sons of Buffalo, who are among the largest producers and retiners of vegetable oils in the world. They have removed the castor oil taste, and smell, too, purifying the oil and making it better and more effec- tive. Nothing is added to it, nothing good taken out of It.
 ,Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil is taste less in the true sense. Even children take it easily, for all the nauseating ef- feet is removed
 Sold now at all drug stores In 25c and 50c sizes. Ask for Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil by name, for there are several preparations of castor oil, mixed and favored. which are not tasteless and do not act as we'll.
 The public IS protected by the trade mark, green castor leaf, bearing the signature, Kellogg's.

SCRAMBLE FOR
 FEDERAL BANKS
Begin Hearings In New York
 City Jan 5 to 8.
SOME VIRTUALLY SETTLED.

| Agreed Upon That Boston, New York,
 Chicago, St. Louis and San Francisco Will Be Money Centsrs-Committee
 Tour From Coast to Coast Will Ter nainate March 1.
 Secretary McAdoo and Secretary Houston, as members of the organiza- ton committee of the federal reserve banking system created by the new currency act, will begin hearings in New York city on Jan. 5, 6, ' and on the question of the location of regional reserve banks which are provided by the bill in the minimum number of eight and maximum of twelve. The Boston hearings have been postponed until Jan. and 10. This change will not affect the dates previously an- nounced for other cities. The Phila- delphia hearings have been set for Jan 16 in Washington.
 The tour of the committee will ex- tend from coast to coast and will ter minate about March 1, by which time the national banks of the country will have been compelled Under the law to signify their intention to come into or remain out of the system.
 The organization committee has al- ready announced that geographical I convenience, including transportation | facilities, industrial and commercial development of each section, and the established custom and trend of busi- ness will be the prime considera tions in reaching a decision, not only as to the regional reserve divisions to be es tablished. but also in the selection of the cities which will have regional re- serve banks. Political considerations and campaigning will be of no avail in securing locations.
 It may be set down as virtually set. i tied at this time that five of the re gional banks to be esta blished will be located in Boston, New York, Chicago, St Louis and San Francisco. The req son for such assignments is obvious. New York, Chicago and St. Louis have been reserve cities for years under the old banking system of the country, and through them the channels of trade and commerce and finance have flow. ed so long as to become natural lines Wholly aside from the additional claims which might be urged in their behalf. their selection will be a recog. milton that established custom and trend of business cannot be safely in. terfered with in selecting the sites of regional banks.
 Boston is also regarded as a certain | ty as regional reserve bank location because of the large commercial and | industrial development of New Eng land. At the same time numerous complications enter into it's selection. for the reason that part of New Eng land-Connecticut, for example-has i long been in the habit of conducting It's financial transactions through New York. Whether or not the organiza- ton committee will ignore the natural geographical barrier which has long separated the New England states from the remainder of the country and attach that entire geographical terri tory to the Boston bank is a matter of speculation here. Should it be done Connecticut bankers at least would be compelled to reverse their financial channels and make them flow uphill,
 so to speak.
