CONGRESS COMMITTEES
CONSIDER LAW ON USURY
Preparing to Work Out Form of
Legislation to Regulate
Interest Charges.

The banking and currency committees
of Congress are preparing to work out
soon after the holidays a law to pre-
vent usury.
Several bills have been introduced.
one by Senator Gore of Oklahoma.
which proposes that every national
banking association shall keep SEIZED
ule under regulations of the Treasury
showing the rate of. interest charged
on any loan. discount, note or other evil
dences OF debt. and that all excessive
interest charges be reported to the At
torney General by the controller of the
currency.
The Attorney General would institute
proceedings against offending banks to
recover the amount of excessive inter
est. Offenders also would be liable in
damages to the government for an
amount equal TO the excess charges.
Representative Howard Of Georgia
has prepared resolution which he
will submit after the holidays direct
ing an investigation into allegations
recently made by Treasury officials
that certain banks have been charging
excessive interest rates.

Collect Higher Freight Rate.

The Supreme Court has affirmed the
action of the Tennessee supreme court

(Tenn) Coal and Iron Company, pig
iron manufacturers, against the Gin
cinnati, New Orleans and Texas Rail-
way Company, and others, to enjoin
the roads from collecting in federal
courts $4,000 as additional freight
charges.
The iron company claimed the Gin
cinnati Southern informed it that the
charge for transporting certain ore
would be so cents and that the rate
was raised to 10 cents before the

Medical Association.

CHICAGO. December 21.-Reorgani-

citation. national body composed of
more than 10000 physicians. is expect
ed to follow the decision Of the Illinois
supreme court, which yesterday upheld
the decision of the appellate court and
ordered the removal of the present
board OF directors.
The decision was rendered in the suit
filed Ave years ago by Dr.. G.. Frank
Lydston of Chicago, who claimed the
affairs of the association were con-
trolled by an oligarchy. He attempted
to prevent DIR. George II. Simmons of
Chicago. then secretary of the associa-
ton. from holding office at once.
Under the ruling of the court, mem
bers of the present board of directors
were elected Illegally. inasmuch as the
association was incorporated under a
charter from Illinois. and therefore
must hold its meetings in this state.

u S. PROTESTS TO BRITAIN.
Objects to Interference With Parcel
Post Shipments to Sweden.

The United States has protested to
Great Britain against interference with
parcel post shipments between this
country and Sweden. Secretary Lansing
said that the Swedish minister had
complained to the State Department
that parcel post shipments had been
held up by British warships on the
high seas.
Besides filing protest. the State De-
partment has asked Great Britain for
an explanation.
In connection with similar complaints
in the past. the allied governments
have contended that abuses of foreign
mails by German agencies in the United
States made it necessary to examine
certain classes of mail matter, particu-
arly parcel post packages, in which
rubber and other contraband products
have been found.

Saving to the Oil Men.

The bureau has developed that the
losses to the oil and natural gas Indus
try in a years time through careless
and reckless exploitation amounts to
s50.000,000, and has devised and dem
onstrated a practical process for drill
ing wells by which the waste of gas
and the invasion of water may be stop
ped. thus saving in single state natu-
raj gas worth more than s15,000,000.
Looking into the future, the bureau
is investigating the vast deposits of
the so-called oil shales of Utah and
Colorado. believing that the oil supply
will come from them at no distant pc
riod. These shales, it is said, rival as
sources of petroleum the oil shales of
Scotland and New South Wales, which
have been profitably exploited in spite
of the continued competition of oil

The studying. of the combustion of

to certain information that calls for
new designs for furnaces which will
prove more economical.
The experts of the bureau have been

what is known as the gas-producer,
which burns a much lower grade of
coal than the steam boiler and pro-
duces power, 1T is said. at less ex-

ward the almost exclusive use of high

waste and neglect or low grade fuels.
which is in sharp contrast to the sit
uation in Europe. 1t is the expectation
of these experts to see the railroads of
the country operated by electricity, OBJ
tanning their power from gigantic gas
producer power plants located at the
mines.

An appropriation of 100000 is asked
for extending the Caribbean weather
observations with a view to a system
of communication of considerable val

naval operations in the Canal Zone. ,
Instead of observations once a day
during a Seven-month period at an in
adequate number of stations, con-
tinuous all-year-around service would
be esta bliShed at additional stations in
South and Central America and along
the southern coast.
The object would be to warn of the
approach of tropical storms. so destruc-
tive to life and property. A $4,000
structure on the Canal Zone, to serve
as the official headquarters for the
weather service in that section, also is
planned
