RISE IN GERMAN MARK !
DUE TO SPECULATION
U. S. Banker in Berlin Explains
How Peoples Failure to Cash
Them Increases Value.

BERLIN, May 17.-Some illuminat-
ing reasons for the continued rise of
the German mark were given me to-
day by J. L.. Williams. vice president
of the Bank of Italy in California and
York. and now the official representa-
tive in Berlin of those institutions.
Everybody Is conjecturing on the
increase in the value of the mark.
said Mr.. Williams ITO me il is not ex-
traordinary. In the first place it must
be realized that thousands of Ameri-
cans Englishmen. Frenchmen and of
all other nationalities have bought
heavily on the supposition that Ger
many must come back My investiga-
ton Of financial matters here has
shown that millions of dollars in ma
terial and food. as we'll as cash and
credits, have been pouring into Ger
many for months.
This morning I talked for two
hours with the manager of the foreign
which is our correspondent here. To
my surprise when 1 came to check our
balances / found that the Deutsche
Bank showed from ten to twenty
times the amount on our books at
home which means that when Amerj-
cans have bought drafts on Berlin a.
the prevailing rates they have no:
caShed those drafts. but have been
holding them for better market va.
ues Thus the German banks are es-
! labllshing huge credits in New York
Paris London and Rome. and are col
Letting interest in those centers as
well as gaining interest on the bal
ances in Germany which remain large
owing to the fact that spectators
have not cashed their drafts. as have
said. 1T is really an indication Of q
healthy condition.
Another interesting fact is that
there are in the Deutsche Bank MANY
more American accounts with great.
l er balance than there were in 1911
before the war"
Mr.. Williams leaves tomorrow TO,
London, Paris and Madrid, and then
returns to the United States.

 TWQ STATES
Transportation Act Quoted Authority for Ignoring
 Laws of States

WASHINGTON, Dec 23. State railway commissions of Arkansas and Minnesota were ordered today by the Interstate Commerce Commission to increase state passenger rates and excess baggage charges to the level now prevailing in interstate com merce. The commission held that the present charges in the two states amounted to discrimination against interstate traffic. Both Arkansas and Minnesota are numbered among the seventeen states which refused to grant 20 per cent increase in passenger fares last August to con- form with the increase in interstate traffic. and the decisions today mark the first action to be taken by the commission since hearings were given seven states here recently. The commission previously ruled against the state commissions of New York and Wisconsin and these cases are now being fought in the courts.
 The state commissions of Arkan- sas and Minnesota granted an in crease in freight rates but due itC existing state laws asserted they were powerless to raise rates on pas senger fares and excess baggage.
 In Minnesota the state rate for passenger fares was set at ? cents per mile by the legislature, but the carriers obtained an injunction at the end Of the federal control period which prevented the state commis sion putting pre-war rates into effect In Arkansas the maximum rate also was 2 cents a mile.
 The Interstate Commerce Commis sion quoted the transportation act as it's authority to raise rates in opposi tion to state laws made by legisla lures.
 Changes in the Arkansas rates must be made by February l5. and il Minnesota by February 1. the Inter state Commerce Commission ruled.
 In the Arkansas case Commis sioner Eastman dissented. but the Minnesota decision was unanimous.
