SAYS COMPTROLLER
UPHOLDS HIS VIEW
National Bank Examiner Claims the
Right to Impound Books and Pa
pers of Banks.

NEW YORK, Feb. ia national
bank examiner has an unquestionable
right 30 take into his possession tenn
porarily any papers or effects Of bank
under examination about which there
is any question, for the purpose of such
investigation concerning them as he
may think necessary
This is the language used in state
ment issued today by Charles Starek,
national bank examiner for New York
City, whose right to impound, tenn
porarily, the records of a bank had re-
Gently been questioned BY one of the
national banks of this city.
According TO Mr.. Starek, this is the
first time since the passage Of the ma
tional banking act, fifty years ago, that
the question has been raised. He says
in his statement that the position he
assumed in connection with the New
York bank had. been sustained By the
comptroller of the currency,
The bank president who denied Mr..
Starek S authority TO take possession of
books and othor documents, insisted
that bank exercised toward it's depos-
itors professional privilege, and was for
this reason in duty bound TO keep its
books and records private.

FIGHT OVER CANAL
TOLLS REPEAL IS ON
Democratic Platform Is Not
Going to Stand in Way of
Administration Supporters.

WASHINGTON. Feb. The provi-
sion favoring free passage for American
ships through the Panama canal was
injected into the Democratic platform
without the knowledge OF the majority
of the resolutions committee at the Bal
timore convention according to the as
sertlon today of Representative Adam
son OF Georgia, chairman OF the inter
state and foreign commerce commission
He had met but three or four members
of the convention, he said, who knew
of the existence of the tolls plank be-
fore the platform was promulgated.
Branding the tolls exemption provl-
sion US "heretic doctrine Adamson
issued statement today paving the
way for congressional debate on re-
pealing bill to be introduced In accord
ance with tho determination of Presi-
dent Wilson that the United States
should recognize the claim of Great
Britain that exemption Tor American
ships is in violation of the Hay-Paunce'
fote treaty.
Senator o German, who will fight the
repeal provision in the senate, and Rep
resentative Broussard of Louisiana, the
senator elect from that state, were mem.
bers of a subcommittee at Baltimore
which wrote the tolls exemption plank
into the platform. 1t was done, it was
SAID, today. without the consent oil
majority of the full committee or Secre-
tary of State Bryan, chairman of the
resolutions committee.
81 am not at all troubled about the
cry,' Representative Adamson said,
''that repeating the exemption violates
the Democratic platform. A subsidy is
not cardinal doctrine of the Democrat
ic party. In fact, that exemption is a
contradictory, interjection into an anti
subsidy plank in the platform and is
void, The method of It's insertion in
tho platform is generally understood
among well-informed people.
Under a general idea of approving
what a Democratic congress had done,
certain members of the house and SEN
ate who were on that committee, were
permitted TO interject that beretical pro-
vision On the idea that they were as
serting approval of what Democrats in
congress had done when in fact n ma
jority OF more than twenty Democrats
in the house voted against the eXemp-
tlon.
''Before honest, unflinrhing Demo
Gratis can be bound by subsidy pro
vision il ought to be shown that the
members Of the convention knew II was
in there and that the members at least
understand and approved IT. l have

Disgrace of Illiteracy in the
United States Declared
Easy to Eliminate.

WASHINGTON, Feb. THE proper
tion of the wholly illiterate adults
among the population of the United
States Is n national disgrace which can
be very quickly eliminated, according TO
a report today from the house educa-
ton committee on the Lever bill TO
investigate illiteracy.
The bill, which carries no appropria-
ton, authorizes the commission OF edu
cation TO cooperate with concerted
movement involving field and clerical
service with the sta,es, individuals ard
associations TO oblteratc the stain and
reproach Of illiteracy.
Commissioner Clayton Of the federal
bureau OF education has expressed the
belief that ilGteracy could be Nut to a
fraction OF ] per cent and Represep-
tative Towner of Iowa, in submitting
the committees s unanimous report, pre-
dicted it would be acc omplished with
little delay.
The report Of the commissioner shows
the number OF illiterates in the United
States to be 3,lS4 1854 whites 10 years
old or moro at the censns of 1910,
exceeding the population of the country
in 1900. The distribution ranges from
seventeen per 1000 people in Iowa TO
290 per 1000 in Louisiana. In the south,
the report adds, the percentage is high
est in the rural districts and in the
north it is highest in the cities. Boston
has 24,46S illiteratcs over 10 years old
"There are 2,25S,603 illiterate males
of 81 years old and over in the
United States it pointed out, "or
enough to determine any national cleo
tion at any period of United States his

VOICES OBJECTIONS
To THE PENDING BILL
Attorney Represents New
York Exchange Before d.
Senate Committee.
By Interna tional News Service.

BY International News Service
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.-Before the
senate banking and currency committee
today, Hjalmar II. Boyesen. attorney
for the Consolidated Stock exchange
of New York, voiced emphatic obiec-
tious to the pending bill TO regulate
stock exchange transactions
One of his chief objections was that,
as now framed, the measure would give
power to big corporations, like the
steel trust. TO throttle every stock ex.
change in the country with the excep.
tion Of that which it might see fit TO
Tavor. The measure provides that stock
exchanges shall be responsible, before
listing, for the stock financial state
ments, etc, OF the concern whose stock
is listed. Through this provision these
big corporations could make their re-
port TO one exchange and all the rest
would be barred, and they would not
have the reports and financial condi-
ton upon which to guarantee the stocks
listed This, he contended, would re.
suit In building up an enormous stock
exchange in New York City to the det.
riment and injury of tho trade and
business Of every other section Of the
country.
