mously Of the belief that this is unde-
sirable, as 1t would tend toward a period
Of imitation and speculation. Another sug-
gestion Is that a separate credit be
established to provide funds solely for
the payment Of war munitions.
As to the interest rate, most American
bankers seemed to have become reconcil-
ed. although in some quarters there is
a more or less insistent demand that the
bankers handling the loan be paid at
least one-haH Of per cent for their
trouble.
The Russian question. too, is regarded
as minor. The point in this phase is
that some American bankers believe they
should deal directly with Russia and not
through Great Britain. In this connec-
ton 1t is pointed out that when the war
ends the United States will find in Rus

PLAZA COMMISSION
SOON TO END WORK
Practically Has Completed
Consideration of Properties
and Making Awards.
HOLDINGS OF B. & O.
YET TO BE DISPOSED OF
Law Holds Price Shall Not Be More
Than Original Cost
Plus Interest.

The commission Of awards practi-
cally completed consideration of all
properties involved in the proposed ex-
tension of Union station plaza, with
exception of the holdings of the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad, with the an
nouncement today of awards to owners
of property in the northern half OF
square 721, bounded by California, F
and I'd streets and the Union station.
These holdings are on F and I'd streets.
The rest of the square is owned by
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
The life of the plaza commission 10
drawing to a close. In about two months
it will have disposed of all the busi-
ness required of 1t, have MADE lts re-
port, been relieved from duty and have
gone out of existence. The commission
will pass upon the B. & y. railway
holdings as it's last duty.
Has Created Valuation.
The law creating the commission au-
thorized it to value the property OF
the B. & o. railroad at a price not more
than it's original cost to the corpora
tion plus per cent interest per an
mum. not compounded. The commission.
by its awards to private owners, ac-
cepted almost without exception. has
created a valuation for property in the
vicinity which will be applied in fnd-
ing the true value of the holdings of
the B. & o. railroad.
There is reason to believe that the
commission Of awards will not, In fix
ing values, be bound by the maximum
valuation of original cost. plus per
cent per annum. Where the valuations
of adjoining property have been fxed,
and no other equation enters, 1t Is to
be expected that the valuation of Bal
timore and Ohio property will be SIM
liar, even If much less than the pos
sible maximum.

Ohio railroad Is suit at law, II 1t

nation proceedings ma ysettle any dis
agreement as to values. But the COM

No executive order was Issued in the

committee from the government print
ing office asked the President II the
public printer might grant this prlvi-

No executive order is needed Tor the

the matter is entirely up to the neaos
OF the departments.

missing "as many as can be spared

office and the Treasury Department
being among such departments.

or not, especially If the weather cools
off materially. Employees are also re-
