WASHINGTON form of sugar
intensely sweet and valued at $66 a
pound has been discovered growing
on fir trees in the Province of Brit
ish Columbia, according to an an
nouncement by the American Fores-
try Magazine. An article prepared
for this magazine says the discov-

The sugar is said to appear in
hard, white masses spreading over
the leaves of the tree or clinging to
the leaf tips. Its existence and use
have been known to the Indians Of
the province for some time.

TIDE OF EXPANSION
TURNING, SAYS BOARD
More Wholesome Judgment
by Borrowers Noted.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 26.--Evdencr
Of the turning Of the tide Of EXPANSION
was given last night by the federal re-
serve board in a statement which de-
elared that further expansion Of bank
credit apparently has been checked. -
The board added. however. that appli
cation OF the policy of restricting loans
% g, essential requirements had not re-
duced the volume OF loans and dis
counts Of the countrys banking insti-
tutionS
There has been an awakening OF the
public TO the credit needs. according
10 the boards review, with the result
mat people are taking stock" cur
failing their expected loans and excr-
cising generally "a more wholesome
Judgment. The result sought to be
accomplished by the board when II
asked the banks to restrict the credit
OF so-called nonesscntial and speCula-
tive enterprises Is being attained but
not without the aid OF higher interest
rates II was said.
In connection with the statement that
expansion had been checked, the board
mentioned the adoption OF scale OF
progressive rediscount rates by four
federal reserve banks, Atlanta, St
Louis, Kansas city and Dallas, was
ihhue possible under the PhClan act.
The graduated rediscount rates have
not been in effect long enough for their
operations to show definite results, but
officials are watching them closely be
cause Of the expected effect on the gen
eral credit situation Application Of
this method OF restricting credit was
held TO be OF aid in compelling a cur
failing Of loans TO the customers OF
banks because the banks, in turn. would
not be able to obtain their requirements
without paying the higher interest
rates
