skeletons Nation. Wide Lobby

National banks, which, Ms d rule, DO
not favor the guaranty Of deposits
which Senator Owen Of Oklahoma is
attempting to procure by Federal eg.
islauon, are being circuarized by
John SHELTON Williams, comptroller Of
the currency, in favor Of the Owen
bill. This is a questionable use Of the
comptroller's powers and influence.
He is by law, the arbiter Of the fate
of the national banks of the country.
BY oppressive legislation he may rem
der their business difficult, by refusing
to renew their charters upon their
termination he may put the banks out
Of business 1t is not ethical, TO say
the least, that he should use his official
position--to say nothing of his official
frank in the mails--to dragon banks
into supporting measure which is
unsound and prejudicial to safe
finance.

A Shining Example

Representative George c. Scott OF
Iowa, has been officially declared, by
a unanimous vote of his colleagues
entitled to his seat in the House. Mr.
SCOTS victory comes as result of a
long investigation Of his election con.
Quoted by the Committee on Elections
of the House. Over 10000 ballots
were examined and passed upon, and
Mr. Scott was finally decided to have
been elected by a majority of four.
The subcommittee in immediate
charge of the case was made up of two
Democrats and one Republican, all of
whom gave their opinion in favor of
Mr.. Scott. Freedom from partisan
ship, an evident desire to get at the
real merits of the case, and an utter
lack of any personal feeling between
the contestants distinguished the CON

Mine Royalties

Washington, June 18-Sanator AL
bert B. Fall of New Mexico, l.as come
out in hearty support of the bill 10
facilitate mining on Indian lands by
the leasing system. At the same time
he believes that the high royalty, S
per cent of the gross output of the
mines, is excessive and will tend to
prevent the development that The leg

understood the rate Of royalty was
fixed by members whose solicitude for
the welfare of the Indian exceeded
their knowledge of practical mining
Senator Fall has called the attention
of his colleagues to the fact that many
mines, particularly copper, are being
worked today on five per cent profit.
If the same methods were applied to
the contemplated operations on the In
dian lands, the proposed royalty would
take all the profits and put an end to
further development. 1t is more than
probable that the arguments of Sen
ator Fall will induce the Senate to
amend the bill in line with his sugges-
tons.

JUBILEE AND CONVENTION
OF THE T. O. B. B.

The celebration of the Diamond
Anniversary of the founding of the
independent Order B'rai Birth and
the Golden Jubilee of the Grand Lodge
No. 6, 1. 0. B. B. began at Chicago,
Saturday, September 18th. Delegates
to the Convention, officers of the Dis
trict and members of the Executive
Committee of the Order, arrived from
different parts of the country. The
Covenant Club of Chicago, a B'nai
Birth institution, was made the head
quarters. A meeting of the General
Committee of the District was held
on the evening of the 18th.
Sunday morning the festivities were
formally begun by a Thanksgiving
Service held in Sinai Temple. Owing
to serious illness, DR.. Emil Hirsch,
was unable to conduct the services.
DR.. Joseph Stolz took his place and
was followed by DR.. E. N. Calisch,
a member of the Executive Committee
of the Constitution Grand Lodge, who
delivered an eloquent sermon, point
ing out the service, duty and response
bilities of the B'nai Birth in the pres
ent World War He emphasized the
fact that one of the new ideals grow
ing out of the war is what is generally
spoken of as national self-determina-
ton. I4e stated in Analysing this term
that the B'nai Birth has always been
foremost in working for the means to
accomplish this end. He specified
three particulars, the first, group
consciousness the second, faith; and
the third, loyalty. He demonstrated
the utility of the Order in all these
matters.
In the evening Patriotic Program
was held in the Auditorium in the
presence of an enthusiastic audience
of twenty-five hundred people. Mr..
Adolph Kraus presided. Letters of
congratulation were read by Mr.. Sig.
Livingston from practically every
member of President Wilson's Cabinet,

tor H. c. Lodge, Speaker Champ

ming. He lauded the part played by

lowed by the Honorable Simon Wolf,

L he work OF the Russian Branch
will be divided between camps and
communities. Trained and espe-
cially qualified welfare workers will
be sent into army camps through
out the country to conduct educa-
tional and recreational activities and
to aid the Russian in adjusting him
self to his new environment, and in
solving his many personal difficult
ties and problems. English classes
will be organized, pamphlets and
other literature in Russian provided,
and the aid of his compatriots en-
listed to procure books for him.
Concerts and entertainments of spe-
cial interest to the Russian soldier
will be arranged in the camps thru
the regular camp organization of
the Jewish Welfare Board.
In towns where there is a con-
siderable Russian population, infor-.
nation bureaus will be opened to
assist men of draft age in filling
out questionnaires, and to solve the
many perplexities that arise from
military regulations. In this work,
the Jewish Welfare Board will CO.
operate closely with the Russian
; Information Bureau, which has been
established in this country by in
fuential Russians. The entire ma
chinery Of the Jewish Welfare Board
has been placed at the disposal of
the Russians in this country, and
the officials of the Board expect
that other possibilities of co-opera-
ton will reveal themselves, giving
still wider opportunity for service.
New York City offices of the Rus
sian Aid Bureau Branch of the Jew
ish Welfare Board will shortly be
established in the Russian quarter
of the city. Statistics are being
gathered to show the concentration
of Russians i'm this country, and
as soon as plans are developed,
branch information centers will be
opened throughout the United
States.
To meet the needs of the work,
a group of Russian welfare workers
will be appointed by the Jewish
Welfare Board. The essential quail
fcations are thorough knowledge
of the Russian and English Ian
guage, and of the psychology of
the Russian people, and loyalty to
