Necessity of
Utmost Economy

WASHINGTON. $50 With banking
credits of the United States expand
ed to the extent of eleven billion
dollars and producing of vital COM
modities decreased 10 per cent, the
country may find itself confronted
with serious situation unless the
public is made to realize the neces-

banking credit.
This was the keynote Of an i'm
portant statement read by Governor
w. P. G.. Harding of the federal
reserve board at a meeting of the
board held Tuesday to discuss the
financial problems of the nation.
Governor Harding told the mem
bers of the board that the continued
expansion of credits which has oc-
Cured since the flotation of the
last Victory loan last May, in the
face of decreased production of nee
essities "is one of the disquieting
features of the present financial sit

CITY COUNCIL
HOLDS MEETING
CITY athers Have
Quiet Session
Tuesday

City council at its regular meet
ing Tuesday night voted to purchase
$75 worth of stock in the West
Park Ditch company, to require ad-
ditional bods Of $1,000 from each
of the three banks in the city and
accepted the invitation Of the Ameri-
can Legion to attend the Memorial
day exercises at the high school au-
ditorium May 80. The balance of
the evening was taken up with the
discussion of the bond issue.
The purchase Of water stock in
the West Park Ditch company was
necessary in order to provide water
for the city park this year. The ad-
ditional bonds of $1,000 from each
the banks was ordered because Of
the fact that the bonds now carried
by the banks are not sufficient to
cover the money deposited. The
banks will now be bonded to the ex-
tent Of $4,000.

DIV Universal seryicel

WASHINGTON.--An end to "gov.
ernment bluffing" and campaign Of
real action against the profiteers was
demanded in the senate Tuesday by
Senator Walsh, Democrat, Of Mas
sachusetts. He proposed going into
the income tax returns for the evi-
dence bearing on the relations be-
tween concentration of wealth and
the high cost of living '.
At the conclusion Of his denuncia-
of the profiteer he introduced reso-
luton providing for the senate COM
mittee to expose profits by the tax
figures. He. suggested government
dealing in necessities of life on
which profits have become exorbitant.
Specifying instances OF profiteer-
ing which he regarded as the funda-
mental cause of the country's in
dustrial unrest, Senator Walsh said:
'Inaugurate thoro examination
of income tax returns by a commit
tee of the senate, SO that the extent
of the profteering may be disclosed
and chief offenders pointed out.
Such an inquiry will give indisput
able proof that the government does
not intend to keep secret any facts
relating to profiteering.
THE senate should take immedi-
ate action on the long pending and
profiteering measures such as the
blue sky laws. the Kenyon-Kendrick
and Gronna bills for separation Of
packing houses and stock yards, the
bill to make compulsory the stamp
ing of manufacturers cost on articles
for sale and other measures recon-
mended by President Wilson"

mittee on planks and policies got
down to work Tuesday in an all day
session in Senator Ledge's office.
1t cannot be said that the commit
tee accomplished much in the way Of
taking any Of the work off the hands
Of the platform committee Of the
convention after it shall have been
presented.
Even State Senator Ogden l.. Mills
Of New York, chairman Of the gather
ing announced at the close of the
session that nothing very tangible
had been evolved out of the great
bundle Of suggestions offered.
The committee began by catalog-
ing all the items which 1t is believed
the party platform should embrace
and then took up their consideration
in alphabetical order. 1t is understood
that under the letter "a" the mat
ter of "Aliens" and their deporta-
tion was discussed and that when
"B" was reached the subject Of
"beer" was brought up, which led to
general discussion of what the
party's declaration on the question
of national prohibition should be.
There was considerable talk about
having a plank in the platform en-
dorsing the federal amendment in
order to catch the dry vote, but no
agreement was reached. Several in
the conference wanted to have q
lukewarm declaration on the Vol
stead act by means Of plank which
should merely commit the party to
the enforcement of all laws.
Inasmuch as all the senator's and
representatives participating in the
conference voted for the amendment
as well as for the Volstead there was
not much said that would give COM
fort to the vets.
