BRYAN FAVORS FEDERAL BANK.
Says Government Will Act Unless
Financies Hurry

If the banks of the United States
don't hurry up and take advantage oil the
recent currency act which permits them
to establish branch banks in South and
Central American countries. then L want
the government of this country to under
take the transmission of money to our
sister republics of the Western Hemis-
phere."
Secretary tof State Bryan last night
spoke in this strain at the New Willard
at a dinner given to the Uruguayan dele
cation OF the Pan-American Financial
Conference by Gen. f. c. O'Brien, of
New York.
Il believe" said Secretary Bryan. that
the United States government could I'M
derwrite the governments or the south
American republics. ! am not imam
cier, but l have some very decided ng-
ures concerning finance. l believe that
this government profitably could issue
bonds to the South American countries
at 4 per cent. take their bonds at per
cent. and utilize the other l per cent
as a sinking fund for the gradual eiimi-
nation of the burdensome debts
Il believe In establishing branch banks
In South American countries. II the
lead is not taken by the bankers them
selves. then ii remains for- the United
States governemnt to step In and FUR

Graphic proof of the benefits OF the
half-and-half plan was shown in 200 pic
lures OF Washington exhibited to the
public for the first time last night at
the New Willard by Gideon ]. Pillow,
lawyer and lecturer of this city. who
has just completed the collection OF pic
lures after more than six months OF in
vestisation and research.
Mr. Pillow has succeeded in gathering
the most comprehensive pictorial history
Of the National Capital ever shown. His
first pictures are of scenes before the
designation of the site of Washington by
George Washington, and the last views
are those taken in various parts OF
Washington within the last few weeks
The pictures are strong argument Tor
the continuance of the present plan OF
appropriation for the District. Pictures
of scenes taken before the half-and-half
plan was adopted show a Washington OF
which probably no one was proud. The
pictures of scenes taken after the half
and-half plan had been in working order
for some time showed a beautiful WASH
ington.
Efforts Were Pitiful.
The efforts OF the citizens of Wash
instnn to improve their city unaided,
decIa red Mr.. Pillow were pitiful in the
extreme. To support the city alone was
q task the citizens could not accomplish
and they put the city in bankruptcy in

notice.

Polls Theater last night, when Arthur
Carroll. DIR. James HaIpin. and William

the association. presented Harry An

his assistance to the dramatic club OF

The testimonial came as surprise to
Mr.. Andrews. who was called before the
curtain at the conclusion of the second
act of Polly of the Circus" Wearing

play. Mr. Andrews seemed nonplused
when Mr. Carroll began his speech OF
presentation and appreciation, but by the
time that the handsome gift had been
placed in the directors hand he had re-
covered his poise and made happy
speech of acceptance.
