Ruling on Retired Medical Officers.

Retired Army medical officers are
not at present eligible for appoint
ment as reserve officers of the pub
lie health service. according to a de-
cision of the controller of the Treas
ury. The surgeon general of the
public health service asked if it was
possible under the law for retired
Army medical officers to hold COM
missions in the reserve of the public
health service and to be assigned to
active duty without vacating their
commissions in the Army or affecting
their Army status. The controller
said it was doubtful whether they
could be appointed under the law at
any time. but that in war times they
could not.

War Camp Service Denies Break.

War Camp Community Service have
denied allegations that there was a
threatened. break between the service
and the Government Redceation
League, a subsidiary of the service
carrying on its activities chiefly
among the several government de-
partments l.. IL. Weir. executive Of
ficer of the war camp service said to-
day that these charges grew out OF
the attempt to place the treasury Of
the league on the same basis as that OF
the war camp service, which he said
would facilitate the working of the
league because money for the league
comes from the funds of the war camp
service.

NEW D. c. SCHOOL LAW
URGED At CONFERENCE
City Employees Association Starts
Movement and Calls Upon Citi-
zens for Action.


law. written by it's citizens and giving
them a voice in the conduct of school
affairs. as a result of movement set
on foot yesterday by the City En-
ployes' Association.
At conference in the Office of Dis
trict Auditor AlonZo Tweedale, called
by Joseph H. Hurley. president of the
association, committee was appoint
ed to undertake the drafting of the
proposed law.
Citizens Invited to Serve.
This committee. of which James F.
Oyster. former school board president,
was proposed for temporary chairman,
will meet in Mr.. Tweedale's office next
Wednesday afternoon. Those who will
be invited to serve on the committee
are Roy c. Clafin, Robert n. Harper,
r. c. Brandenburg, Judge Robert H.
Terrell. Charles S. Shreve. Prof. Harry
A English. Thomas Medford. Frank A.
Woodward. P. T. Moran, Selden NJ. Ely,
William T. Galliher and Mr. Hurley,
the last named having been chosen for
temporary secretary.
1t is proposed to submit the COM
mittee'S recommendations to the Dis
trict Commissioners. If approved by
the Commissioners they will go to
Congress.
Auditor Tweedale. Mr. Claf1in, Judge
Terrell, Messrs. Medford, Ely, Shreve
and Hurley attended yesterdays con-
ference. 1t was explained that the
members of the general committee
would be asked to serve in their per-
sonal capacities as representing the
civic interests of Washington rather
than any particular organizations.
The City Employees Association, it
was also explained, aside from having
called the preliminary conference, will
have no official identification with the
movement, which is to be directed en-
tirely by a voluntary citizens commit
tee Belief was expressed that the COM
mittee would be able to cooperate with
the board of education. which is also
considering amendments to the school
law.
Present Law Condemned.
While no plans were outlined at yes
terday's conference, several of those
present expressed the opinion that the
present law is a hodge-podge arrange
ment and should be revised from begin
ming to end. Mr.. Hurley suggested that
it might be advisable to give citizens
associations certain supervisory power
over schools in their respective jurisdic-
tions and voice in choosing represent
attves to serve on the board of educa-
ton.
Washington is entitled to the best
school system in the country and should
have a model law. Mr.. Tweedale de-
clared. The auditor pointed out that in
order to accomplish this it will be nee
essary to pay salaries that will attract
the best-equipped teachers and admins
trative officials. 1t was the opinion of
the auditor that the business manage
ment of the schools should be made a
separate branch, which would leave the
superintendent of schools free to devote
his entire time to educational problems.

Canada Nay Produce
AL Steel Needed

In addition to opening UP an area
rlch IN agricultural possibilities, extern
sion of the +. G. y. O. Railway to tide
water will tap iron and copper areas
which it is impossible to develop with
out rail service. It is known that only
a short distance north of Cochrane is
clay area chemically similar TO the
famous Cornwall china clay deposits.
Moreover. a railway to James Bay
would encourage exploitation of the
vast bodies of high grade hematite ore
on the Belcher Islands, in Hudson Bay,
about $50 miles from Moose Factory.
In TINS connection The Toronto Mail
and Empire" says:
II the Belcher Island deposits.
which are estimated in the hundreds
OF millions of TONS can be electrically
smelted at one of the water powers.
Ontario may have there the nucleus
Of a big steel industry. Our de-
pendence on American ores will per
haps disappear. In fact. the riches
OF our northland have scarcely vet
been scratched, and it may be that in
the Hudson Bay region will ulti-
mately be found an iron and steel Ell
dorado, requiring an industrial popu
latlon bigger than the present day
population Of the whole province.
The fisheries of James BAY and Hun
son bay also can be developed, once
transportation facilities are provided
while the railway cannot fail to pro
mote other important enterprises.

Expects No Large
Migration of Bankers

The former president of the Ma
tional City Bank was asked whether,
if London's gold position should
eventually handicap her position as
the financial centre, it was likely
that British bankers would migrate
to New York. In reply, Mr.. Van
derlip expressed doubt that any
large number Of Britishers would
desert the ship, and praised the
tenacity with which they are strug-
Cling to retain their place. He said
that possibly some might come to
America if conditions changed great
ly, but that such a solution of our
need for better trained bankers
would not be satisfactory. America,
he thought, ought to work out its
problem in it's own way.

tons, Mr.. Vanderlip, sitting leisure
ly on the portico of his residence at
Scarborough, began by saying:
when I came to New York in
1901, no bank did a security bust
ness; no bank had foreign branches.
Bankers were beginning to see the
great evil of individual holding of
reserves by each bank. Talk was
already heard of the evil of drawing
reserve money out of the banks to
move crops.
There was no relation then to
bank currency and the needs of the
business community. Bank notes
were issued only against government
bonds and were not responsive to
the fiuctuating needs Of banking.
"When I came to the City Bank
it was regarded as improper to write
letter soliciting a bank account.
In 1901 the deposits of the City
Bank were 100000, 900, and on
January I, 1919, the deposits of the
City Bank and it's subsidiaries ex-
ceeded $1,000,OO0,OOO.
