16 points. with all positions making

Heavy realizing also was encoun-
tered on the opening advance to 1903

TO MOUNT MACHINE GUNS.
First Consignment Of Motor Trucks
Arrives at Border for Army.

SAN ANTONIO. Tex. August Is
The first consignment of motor trucks
upon which to mount the Lewis ma
chine guns has been delivered at the
United States arsenal here. It consists
of IFS trucks in eighteen cars, and the
order calls for something over $50
trucks to be used for the purpose. The
army has more than 900 Of these ma
chine guns. nearly all of which have
been sent to the southern department
and distributed among the troops along
the border and in Mexico. While the
guns were not originally intended to be
mounted on trucks, as they are light
and easy to transport, 1t was decided
that they were made more effective by
having them mounted on speedy motor
trucks. 1t was announced at headquar-
tiers today that the trucks would be
equipped and shipped to the various
camps along the border as soon as pos
sib1e.

fiscated as a reprisal for 'abominable
violations Of international law and

SAN DIEGO. Cal. August 2s.-'In

would need at once $4,000 trained

cred here on board the cruiser South
Dakota, to the civilian volunteers who
are undergoing naval training.
Admiral Fullam expressed surprise
that the people on the west coast took
so little interest in the unprotected
state Of their coast line and declared it
was time they awoke to the necessity
for adequate preparedness.

Country Banks Will Protest.

There are some $4,000 banks repre-
scented in the American Bankers Asso-
citation membership that are located
outside of reserve cities. The associa-
ton meets at Kansas City in Septem-
Der in annual session, and 1t is expected
the country banks will enter vigorous
protest and perhaps organize to take
action agains: the collection system of
the federal reserve board and its re-
gional banks
There will also be more or less plain
speaking against the federal reserve
act as very many bankers still hold a
grudge against the system by reason of
their being compelled to carry a large
percentage Of reserves there without
interest thereby losing the per cent
interest which many big banks in New
York are willing TO pay.
Further protest VIII be directed
against the purchase of paper in the
open market by the regional banks, in
competition with member banks which
bankers contend. is against the intent
and purpose Of the law. which was
intended as an aid to member banks
and not as a business competitor.
The owners Of the federal reserve
SYSTEM. G., the national banks OF the
country-have literally furnished the
cash for their competitors.
Pleas viii be made for the continu-
ance of the state AID national banking
systems, and not the wiping aIt or at
tempts to eliminate The state Institu-
tons.
