If the government ever presses its
appeal against the United States Steel
Corporation it will be a most unerate-
full and ungracieus act. The lower
court decided against the soyernment
not without trial and a good fight. At
the earnest solicitation Of the govern
ment the Steel Corporation is building
a 100000 great gun factory. the gov
eminent fixed prices in violation of it's
own laws. The Steel Corporation has
practically given preference to the gov
eminent in all matters. and is speeding
up the manufacture of all kinds Of
material and everything that it does is
well done. There are no strikes in its
plants, no dissatisfied workers.

Absolutely Nothing Doing.

Ashton G. Chaplain. former president
Of the Commercial National Bank. drove
q spike clear through the rumors in
circulation in the financial district yes
terday morning regarding his activities
In the organization of a new bank
The rumor was SO persistent, going
even so far as to include an inquiry re-
garding a charter and negotiations for
the purchase of desirable site for a
bank building and was practically cur
rent gossip in every uptown bank, that
1t seemed certain to be something more
than rumor.
Mr. Clapham. commenting on the ru-
NOR. said:
There is absolutely not a breath of
truth in any report that am interested
with any group of men. either local or
out q town. in the organisation OF a
new bank. 1 am not This 10 but q

By I A. FLEMING.

Back in 1915 the controller Of the
ers to the dangers of violation of the
laws Of usury, and then and since then
made many inquiries as to the highest
rates and average rates Of interest
charged on loans
About . month ago. he again called
attention, this time in q circular. to
4 court decision by which a substan-
tial SUM was recovered from q bank by
= depositor who had obtained a large
loan on a compromising balance con-
tingency. .s----
The compromising balance has long
been considered a legitimate feature of
banking business. but henceforth its
use will be restricted, and will be SO
safeguarded that no charge Of usury
will lie against the bank
1t Is a fact, seh-evident, that banks
loans should be made to customers of
the institution. 1t has been said that
there is bank in Washington SO
particular on this proposition that it
will not make a loan to a customer
carrying a balance in the bank.
1t is within the province and the
business of banks to lend to it's Gus
toners 1t has always been customary
for an official of a bank to say. in the
event of necessity. Mr.. Jones. the bal
ance which you keep with this bank
does not warrant me in making you
the loan you desire"
A man carrying a balance of $50 or
500 should not ask for $500 to $1,000
accommodation. Men carrying salts
factory balances obtain practically
what they ask for and without refer
ence to tying up their bank balances
TT is all right to arrange for com
pensating balance" said a bank presi-
dent yesterday. but do not try to tie
up the balance, for the minute you try
to forcibly hold that balance you open
the door of the penitenuary for your
self"
The point in issue is that the loan OF
$500, with a compromising balance OF
$500, the rate of interest on the loan
being per cent. would be practically
$50, while the 5000 on deposit brings
nothing. making the loan cost $50
where it should have cost only SIS had
the man used his own $500 and Dor
rowed $500. the bank practically having
the use of $500.

In a letter to his mother, Mrs Richard Bolton of East Berlin. Will liam Bolton, a member of the 1O2d U. S Infantry, now in active service In France, informs his parent that he has been awarded the war cross of France for bravery in service. The cross, the Croix De Guerre, is the of ficial award of the French govern ment for distinguished service BoI- ton received his cross for service on April 20. On the same day, five oth- CTS Of the division to which he is at tached were awarded this badge of honor for distinguished service. With his Croix De Guerre, Bolton also re ceived a citation from the division general which citation gives him one star toward the official cross of the American government He writes that he will send the cross home as soon as he gets a chance

The young soldier is optimistic about the outcome of tue war but does not think that the end is very near. He was still in the trenches at the time the letter was sent to his mother. The letter was dated June 14.
