Federal Reserve Board
Asks Extension Of Its
Power To Check Credit
Expansion

WASHINGTON, February %. =
In transmitting its annual report to
the House of Representatives the
Federal Reserve Bank board of gov
ernOrs has petitioned Congress for
grant of additional authority beyond
that now given in the law, to check
credit expansion.
Credit expansion made necessary
by the war is conceded to be one of
the principal causes for high prices.
Governor w. G. Harding, one of
the leading members of the board of
governors, declares that the au-
thority to increase rediscount rates,
the standard method of checking ex-
pansiOn is ineffective now because of
abnormal conditions. He says that
the board now wants power to in
crease rediscount rates. to each bank
in proportion to its borrowing under
such plan the more bank borrow
ed the higher rate it would have to
pay.
The idea of this plan is to force
banks to bring pressure on large bor-
rowers to stop expansion, thereby
forcing down pr.ces.

WASHINGTON, February 80. =
Ignorance and malice have misre-
presented most grossly the provisions
and purpose of the Esch- Cummins
railroad bill, Senator Cummins told
the Senate today in urging passage of
that measure, on which the House
took final action Saturday.
Mr.. Cummins replied to criticisms
levelled at that clause in the bill
which guarantees the roads $40
return upon their investment: and
he declared that he cannot under
stand the assaults against the labor
sections of the bill. Both of those
clauses have been under fire from
the railway brotherhoods, and other
labor unions, which are preparing to
carry their fight on the bill to Pres
ident Wilson.
The guarantee section of the bill,
alleged Mr.. Cummins, will not take
one dollar out from the public
traSury.

-"Mexico has nothing to fear from
President Wilson," was the decIara-
ton of Mr.. Luis Cabrera, Minister of
Foreign Relations in the cabinet of
President Carranzay when asked for
an opinion upon the rupture between
Mr.. Wilson and his own foreign
minister. And Mr.. Cabrera was dis
posed to blame Secretary Lansing
for such friction as has occurred be-
tween Mexico and the United States.

bbeen received information to the eff
feet that Attorney General Julio
Michel of the State of Puebla, has

victed of guilt, will be expulsion from

NEGOTIATIONS TOWARD
PEACE PROGRESSING IS
THE REPORT EXTANT IN
LONDON YESTERDAY
Omitted Press Service)

LONDON, February 23.-Indica-
tions tonight are that announcement
will be made tomorrow that negOtia-
tiOns toward peace are in progress
between the Russian Bolshevik gov
ernment and the Allies.
After an all day conference of the
Council of Premiers it was stated
semi-officially that very important
decisions had been reached and would
be made known very shortly. Earlier
information was to the effect that
Premier Lloyd George and Premier
Nitti of Italy, had agreed to COM
plete resumption of commercial re-
lations with Russia, but there would
be no immediate diplomatic dealings.
The premiers are said to feel that
commercial relations should be re-
sumed Immediately because of the
European economic situation. Peace
would release for shipment to Gen.
tral and Western Europe large
quantities of grain that are needed
very greatly in all the countries; and
Russia is in great need of many COM
modities that can be supplied from
those countries. Commercial and
economic necessity are causing
growth of a disposition to ignore
political theories and giving rise to
a desire to resolve economic diff
ficulties without regard to what may
be the form of government or politi-
cal predictions of those who have
what the rest of Europe needs, and
who in turn need what Western
Europe can supply.

BUDGET OF FRESH NEWS FROM
PARTS OF THE REPUBLIC OF
MEXICO, OF REAL INTER-
EST TO ALL READERS

pubic of Chile is not seeking finan-
ca assistance in the United S+Aies.
The interview with the minister was
sought and his views requested on
account of publication of dispatch
from New York, quoting former Sec
retary of the Treasury William G.
McAdoo, as stating that Chile is seek
ing loan in New York, and that it
would be granted upon submission by
the government CT that republic of
sufficient guarantees
Further, Minister Varas averred
that before the world war Chile had
floated in Great Britain large loan
which had met all needs of the re-
public at that time, and that no new
needs have arisen demanding anoth-
er loan from the United States or
any other country.
Advices from Havana, Cuba, are to
the effect that the notable Spanish
comedy writer, Manuel Linares Rivas,
visiting now in the Cuban capital, is
arranging to bring to Mexico a big
opera company to play season in
this city, and to visit, also, other
cities in the republic. Further it is
stated that the principal object of the
visit in Mexico of Mr. Rivas at this
time, is to pave the way for new
copyright treaty between Spain and
Mexico, for reciprocal protection of
the rights of composers and dramat-
lists of the two countries. This OBJ
ject Mr.. Rivas will pursue in his Of
ficial capacity as president of the
Society of Spanish authors.
Advices from Saltillo, capital of
the state of Coahuila, and from
Piedras Negrasa the port of entry,
opposite Eagle Pass, Texas, are to
the effect that General Obregon has
been received with great enthusiasm
by the people of that state, wherever
he has visited in his canvass for the
presidency of Mexico. General Obre-
gon is now at Piedras Negras, where
he was joined Sunday by Mrs. Obre-
gon and children, who went from

UNIFORMS, WOMEN, DOGS

To the bystander something anus
ing is always happening on the In
ternational Line.
Yesterday an automobile came
across the line with a man, a woman
and dog.
The customs inspector was waiting
on the line and just as he gave the
word that everything was o. K. and
for the car to go on a captain on the
line yelled, "That's my dog in the
car" And from then on there was
nothing but argument.
The parties in the car were from
some mine and the lieutenant just
knew that they had his dog.
The man from the mine said that
it was a one man dog and he didn't
want to be obstinate about it but he
didn't feel like giving up the dog.
The lady drove the car off while
the man got out and the dog didn't
appear on the sidewalk again.
The reporter from the "The Oasis"
would have liked very much to have
stayed around for another hour or so
but more pressing business required
his attention.
They used to say that woman
could cause more trouble than any,
thing in the world, but show about

HON. 1HE0DORA
S. MARSH IS
AN ALTERNATE
DELEGATE

Sunday morning "The Oasis. pub
lished a telegram from Mr.. Lou Kol-
ler, who was at Phoenix, in attend
ance at the meeting of the Demo
cratic State Central Committee,
which telegram was sent to Senator
James A. Harrison, conveying the
intelligence that he (Mr. Harrison)
had been named delegate to the Ma
tional Democratic Convention in San
Francisco in June, and that Theodore
March of Cochise county, had been
named as an alternate. That was
the way the telegram read, and it
was the way "The Oasis" published
it.
But the telegram was garbled in
transmission. 1t should have read
"Theordora S. Marsh" instead of
Theodore March. Putting Cochise
county into the telegram helped
divert editorial attention from a cor
rect rendition of the message. More
over, who would have thought of lit
tie Santa Cruz county being given
both delegate and an alternate to
national convention? The selection
speaks we'll for the estimation in
which both former Senator Harrison
and former Representative Marsh are
held by the Democracy of Arizona.
By the way, no day passes but 'sThe
Oasis" is given commentator of the
idea that Mrs. Marsh should be the
next State Senator from Santa Cruz
county. She will be given the Demo-
cratic nomination without opposition;
and she will sweep the county by an
overwhelming majority.
