The Times would like to suggest to
state officials and others who have re-
ports to be sent out to the newspapers
and who wish those reports to be printed
simultaneously by the daily press that
they cause the release notice, together
with. date of release, to be typewriter
in red ink. to make it the more easily
distinguish BILE from the subject matter
of the report; or perhaps to write the re-
lease notice in pen or pencil when the re-
port itself is typewriter. That distinc-
tion would serve to call attention of ed
tors to the desire of the state officials
and others quite sharply and prevent the
recurrence OF premature publication
such as happened in the case of docu
ment sent out last week from the office
Of the state auditor relative TO capitula-
ton of town reports regarding taxation.

GRIP AND NEURASTHEKIA

There is a form OF neurasthenia that
follows the grip. Doctors call it post

foremost medical authorities Of New
York city in lecture in the internal

Broadly speaking, every victim Of
the grip will suffer from post-grippal
nenrasthenia also. Lowering of ner-
vous tone with increased irritability is
the most striking effect Of the disease,

WHAT THE BRITISH LOST AT
KUT- Ell ANIARA.

! Starting with over $4,000 men, the
army of General Townshend, which was
forced by the Turks to retreat to Kutel-
Amara on the Tigris river in Mesopota-
mia, was reduced by ravages of war to a
mere 5000 and for l43 days the little be-
leaguered force was compelled to watch
the dwndling OF their supplies as they
hoped against hope that the relieving ex-
petition from the southwark would get
through and drive off the encircling hosts.
At length the last ray of hope for succor
was removed. The Turks, pressing ever
closer, kept increasing as a menace. 1t
was a case of starvation, sure death in an
attempt to cut way out or an uncondi-
tional surrender. General Townshend
chose the last.named course, prompted
no doubt by counsel from high military
circles OF the British empire. He had
made valiant stand against very nu-
merous enemy and could not be beaten
by direct assault. Yet slow, deliberate
grinding down accomplished what fight
ing could not do; and Townshend's de-
pleted force was finally ordered to lay
down their arms. The 1000 men, har-
raised by hunger and worn out by long
vigils, permitted themselves to be taken
prisoners and the victorious Turks
into the town of Kutel- Amara |
and another defeat for the British cause

IN EFFECT JUNE IS.
Federal Reserve Plan for Countrywide
Check Clearing.

Washington, May 1.-The federal re-
serve board announced Saturday that 1t
would put into effect June Is its new
plan for countrywide check clearing and
collection. Under the plan the actual
cost of clearing and collection of checks
will be assessed against member banks
in proportion to their use OF the system.
A circular announcing its decision was
mailed Saturday by the board to 1900
member banks. The important features
of the plan, the announcement says, are
as follows:
"The federal reserve hanks will accept
at par all checks from member banks
whether drawn against other member
banks, nonnember banks or private
banks. An exception is made at the out
set in the case of checks drawn against
nonmember banks which cannot be col
lected at par.
"All checks thus received from mem
Der banks will be given immediate credit
entry, although amounts thus credited
will not be counted rs reserve or become
available until collected.
''In order to enable member banks TO
know how soon checks sent in for col
lection will be availsb bic, either as reserve
or for payment of checks drawn against
them. time schedules will be furnished
TO member banks.
"The actual cost without profit of the
clearing and collection of checks will be
paid by the federal reserve bank and
assessed against the member banks in
to their sendings.
"The whole plan is based on generally
accepted principles under which clearing
and collection plans have long been oper
ated. A federal reserve bank will not
debit member banks reserve account
with items forwarded for collection until
the remittance of the member bank in
payment of such items shall have had
time to reach the federal reserve bank.
