WIN Help the Farmers.

The amendments to the article relating
TO credit unions and the provision for the
organization OF a land bank OF the state
OF New York were drafted for the en-
abling of the farmers OF the State to
obtain loans upon their personal credit or
upon real estate values upon as easy
terms as are obtainable under the CO.
operative system In vogue in various
European countries.
One OF the mos, interesting features of
the bill is the power given to the state
superintendent OF Banks to conduct in.
vestigations with reference TO violations
of the law. With this additional mower
granted TO the Superintendent OF Bprks
for the enforcement OF the law. Il Is be,
lieved that tho investors of the STATE
can be protected from the operations of
fake investment companies.
This power will also be found helpful
in enforcing the articles of the revised
banking law with reference to private
bankers and personal loan companies and
personal loan brokers.

PUBLIC HEARINGS

WASHINGTON, April 10. - Work was
begun In earnest to-day by the House
Committee on the judiciary on the pro-
posed antitrust legislation embodied In
the Administration bill offered on Tues
day by Representative Clayton Of Ala
bama. The statement was made by one
In authority that the antitrust bill would
be reported for action by the House not
later than the first week In May.
1t Is said to be President wilson's wish
that the measure shall be passed by the
House early next month in order 10 secure
concurrence In the Senate without unduly
prolonginG the session. The President
seems to believe, according to those who
have conferred with him. that the Senate
will act expeditiousiy.
The House committee has no intention
at present OF holding hearings on the
revised bills. All OF the provisions have
been made the subject OF hearings this
session. with the exception OF those deal
ing with indirect contempts and those
limiting the power OF the Federal courts
In issuing injunctions. The latter provi-
sions were embodied in bills that were
passed by the House Democrats In the
Sixty.second Congress. Accordingly the
leaders see no reason why they should
be thrown open to hearings at this time.
At to-day's meeting the first reading
OF the antitrust bill was begun. The bill
will be further considered at a meeting
to be held for the purpose next week.
BY that time II II expected that any
opposition that may develop In committee
will crystalline.
Chairman Clayton does not look for
serious trouble In committee. In fact
II is certain that all the Democrats will
stand by the measure substantially as
introduced and that the bill will be taken
up for discussion In the House Just as
soon as the legislative situation appears
to be propitious.
1t 10 probable that antitrust debate
may be begun Immediately following the
passage OF the naval appropriation bill.
This measure will come up in the House
tomorrow. II will doubtless consume
about ten days. The naval bill. par
ticuiarly the battleship provision. usually
exctes a long drawn out debate.
Upon the passage OF the naval budget
II will he decided by the leaders whether
or not the antitrust bill proper or the
bill proposing the creation OF an inter-
state trade commission shall get the right
OF way.
