motor ambulances to be used in con-

the various hospitals. The war de-
partment had stated it was in respect
to motor ambulances that the hospital

Funds have been collected sufficient
to maintain the hospital for one year

$175,000 still remains to the society's

IN CHANGING SYSTEMS
Shifting Of Reserves and Payaents

Inconvenience.
Gold Pool Particular in Selling Ex-

and Financial Notes.
By I. A. FLEMING.

Bankers generally express the hope
that the federal reserve board will not
order the opening of any district reserve
banks within the current month or un-
til the financial condition shows a ma
terial improvement. 1t Is admitted that
the opening of any district. bank would
disarrange finances in the central re-
serve cities. and especially New York.
where the funds of other reserve centers
and many banks in minor cities are
largely carried.
Moreover. the 6 per cent of capital
surplus ETC., that would be withdrawn
from each national bank in a district
for forming the capital of the reserve
bank would further reduce available
supply of funds, at a time when both
the government and the banks are max
ing every effort to meet all demands.
that business may not suffer more than
it has as a result Of the foreign sftua-
tion.
Then. too. the contribution to capital
stock would have to be made in law

the transfer of member banks proper
tion of reserve would be something Of q
disturbing element in the situation.
True. the reserve under the federal
reserve law would be materially less
than under the national banking act.
the former providing that reserve and
central reserve cities shall carry Is
per cent Of demand deposits and S per
cent on time deposits. instead of the 25
per cent of deposits, as now in vogue.
Ultimately the district reserve bank
would hold 6-15 of the reserve, the
banks in the district sis in its own
varlts and. as the law now stands.
Ais. which may be carried at the
option of the bank in its federal dis
trict bank or in a reserve city bank. A
period of thirty-six months will expire
before the entire reserve shall have
been accumulated in final placement
except as to the optional share.
An attempt is now being made to
amend the act SO as to remove this
optional clause. Bankers are opposed
to any change in the law.
AS 1t is today bankers may carry a
large share of their reserves with
other national banks in reserve or CEN
trail reserve cities, and on these they
receive per cent interest, whereas
with reserves carried with the fed
eral reserve banks no interest is paid.
Because of these various features in
cfdent to the opening of district re-

that there will be no haste in making

SURTON HOyD,

A FTER all, it wasn't really the Floyd
~ case Judge Friebolin tried recently
- in Cleveland.
He watched them file into the court
room; the dainty, lovable bit of a wom-
an; the man with the earnest eyes and
the unhappy lines in his face; their
three children. He listened to the tale
Of fifteen years unhappiness; Of the lack
Of hope for the future. He heard the
woman's story and the mans. And knew
that only in so far as they were types
was 1t their suit for divorce he was to
decide.
He saw the New Regime on the witness
stand pleading for release from the Old;
he heard a demand for Independence,
equality, expression.
And because today is today, and all
the years that have gone are the form in
which tomorrow is nodded, he leaned
down from the judicial desk and gave
his opinion:
"The cause now under eonsIdera-
tion ls due to the growing Independ-
ence Of women. The defendants idea
of the marital relation was OF the
patriarchal kind. He felt that he was
the head Of the family, and that the
wife was the subordinate. He regard
ed his word az supreme In the family
circle:
at nowhere appears that he ever
felt II incumbent upon him to explain
his absences from home; to consult
plaintiff with regard to his associates
or his personal conduct; but he In
sisted on being the sole judge Of his
wife's conduct. He did not reaard his
wife as an equal partner.
"The plaintiff, perhapa uneon.
seiousIy, exempIifies the now almost
universal outreachIna Of women for
greater freedom. Her whole testimony
betrays demand for equal rights In
~ family unIoA

And the woman answering spake unto
the man, her husband: Lord will !
call thee Rs is the ancient custom; love
and honor shalt thou have but not obedi-
Once For hath not the law given me
myself? How then can my life be thine
for an ornament?
Neither shall ! say whittier / go nor

counted 70 met Nay, o lord, who giveth

at was Inevitable that the pIaInt
IN and defendant, differing as they did
in their conception Of their marital
rights and dUties, should clash.
THE relation Of husband and wife
should be established upon q basis Of
mutual respect, confidence and esteem,
and there should be q readiness upon
the part Of each to counsel with one
another In order to avoid such courses
Of conduct which might lnperII the
happiness and integrity Of the family"
And so was history made.
The divorce case OF Ethel Buttle Floyd
and former Cleveland postmaster. pro-
tege. and political lieutenant OF Senator
Burton, Raymond G.. Floyd, is over.
Their petitions have been filed and cross
filed and withdrawn and refled three
times have they almost come to trial in
the past FIVE years. And finally the court
has found the ancient idea OF male su-
periority to blame for their difficulties;
has recognized the plea for equality;
and acknowledged present radical
change Of regime making for present d.
vorce and future wholesomeness Of mari
tai happiness.
Has Judge Friebolin. closing one Of
the most sensational cases ever heard IN
courts here. by his remarkable decision
opened the door to new era?

white, so adorably appealing as she sat
At the counsers table. Her oldest son.
not quite fifteen, is half a head taller
than she. Her big blue eyes are almost
as childlike as the little daughters; yet
there's a CLINT in them at times: a fash
ing determination that lifts her chin and
folds her lips In straight line, Just a
thought hard.
That determination Is the only thing
in her whole personality that suggests
anything Of the independent, free-think-
ing, rather aggressive new woman"
about Mrs. Floyd. With the first glimpse
of her you know that she has the ire
sistible-and perhaps irresisting-love
for the beautiful and artistic; that Chan
tiIly lace and ermine and soft lights and
Viennese waltzes and velvet hangings
and old mahogany are all personalities to
her, assimilating. completing. She doesn't

belief that the plaintiff was not a.
economical as she should have been;
that beautiful things appealed to her
more strongly than the defendants
finances warranted" said the Judge.
And then he went on with his opinion;
the wonderful opinion which may open
the door to a new era:
~The defendant failed to meet the
situation as he might. Instead Of ar
ranging such credit for the plalntiff'as
he regarded necessary for the family,
he permitted the plaintiff, with full
knowledge Of what he regarded as her
weakness, to make purchases for her
self and family without limit. He per-
mItted her to be the household man
aaer, when he admits that he knew
she would exceed his authority In that
regard"
And so Judge Friebolin established
the necessity for the marital equal part
nership in financial matters In the DOssi-
BILE new era.
The Washington herald., 1914-11-22

Then there was strife in the house.
But it came to pass that a wise man
judged between them, saying:
"As the law hath set the man in q
nigh place, even SO hath 1t lifted the
woman beside himI For they are like
unto each other: of equal mind and
heart and each with a life that may not
be absorbed nor dominated.
