Sharp Reduction Is Noted in
Volume of Reckless Buy

SAVINGS DEPOSITS ARE
ON STEADY INCREASE
Grain Men Forecast Increased
Marketing Of Grain Within
Next Two Weeks

st. Paul, Oct. 7.-Residents of
Minncsota-young and old-are re-
turning to habits of thrift. With
sharp reduction noted ip the volume
of reckless/buying, banks throughout
Minnesota are reporting steady in
creases in their savings deposits and
in some sections total bank deposits
are beginning to grow, according to
reports obtained during the past
week from banks throughout Mime
sofa, for the weekly state review of
enterprise, prepared by the Merchants
National bank, of St. Paul.
Banks in large centers have noted
increasing savings deposits for sew
eral months. The movement has
spread to the smaller centers. Ac-
cording to several bankers, the
change took place without "outside
influence" Data is being collected
from various counties to obtain ac-
curate information regarding the
leading elements in the seemingly
spontaneous determination of thou
sands of persons to commence putting
a little money away for rainy day.
Although the movement Of grain
ITO, market HAS not begun on a large
scale, farmers ASare beginning to
Iliduidatc their loans and quite num-
Der of small banks in rural sections
reported increases in their total de-
posts. + This fact is accounted fof by
the diversified ! resources of many
farmers. Some have sold potatoes,
others have disposed of high grade
cattle, a few reaped good profits from
fruit and others have put their clover
on the market. Reports from num-
Der Of counties indicated that the
production of eggs has BEEN above
normal since September l.
Railroad companies still have cause
for concern regarding their ability to
supply cars to the farmers if the
marketing of wheat on a large scale
is started suddenly throughout the
state. With very few exceptions,
county bankers have reported that
car supply has been normal and sat

of labor shortage received during
the past week came from the northern

companies are having difficulty OBJ
tanning sufficient men to 60 into the

PALESTINE ASSEMBLY
r HOLDS SESSION TODAY
Will s. It Such Legislation
as e. ID Essential for
+ % ,e Jewry
by I z Press.)

Jerusalem, h >, Oct. T.
After delays and >ements COW
ering a period of two years,
the constituent assem- Y Palestine
to which delegates hav~ been elected
by the entire adult Jewish population
of the country, convened here today,
for the purpose of adopting such leg
islation as may be deemed essential
for the political organization Of
Palestine's Jewry. I
The assembly, which has now the
sanction of Sir Herbert L. Samuel,
British high commissioner to Pales-
tine, will also be called upon to estab-
lish the status and functions of the
courts of arbitration.
The last prior date which had been
fixed for the meeting of this body
was May 6, but on that day Jerusalem
was recovering from bloody clash
between the Arabs and the Jews. The
military authorities thereupon for
babe the converting of the assembly,
owing to fear that it would serve to
create more friction and possibly
lead to new riots.
\ The plan for the constituent assem-
bly, was worked out at several prelim-
mary conferences of representatives
of all political parties in Jewish
Palestine during the winter of 1918,
and it was hoped that it's first meet
ing could be held during the follow
ing spring. But the ultra-religious
elements in Palestine's Jewry held
that the extension of suffrage to
women on a basis of equality with
male voters was in violation of ira
dition. The agitation against uni
versal suffrage was so strong that the
Zionist commission, under whose
auspices the preliminary conferences
had been held, felt compelled to post
pone the elections. They made it
clear, however, that it would not yield
to the demand that women be exclud-
ed from either voting for or being
candidates as delegates to the assem-
bly,. "a.
