SENATOR SMITHS
PLAN is FAVORABLE
Committee Reports Favorably on
The Amendment.

News and Courier.
Washington, March S.-Today the
senate committee on agriculture vot-
ed to report favorably Senator E. u.
Smiths amendment to the pending
agricultural appropriation bill safe
guarding the amendment which the
South Carolina Senator put through
Congress last year restricting grades
to be delivered under the cotton fu-
lures act to ten in number, including
certain stains and tinges, of white
cotton nothing below the grade OF
middling.
The amendment as it now exists
was adopted as rider to the wheat
guarantee act, which terminates June
l next. Certain parties in New York
claim that the amendment will pass
out of existence with the wheat act,
although several solicitors of the De-
partment of Justice to whom Sena-
tor Smith referred the matter, have
expressed the opinion that the amend
ment is permanent as it stands. How
ever, wishing to take no chances, the
Senator will have this amendment
reenacted.
Senator Smith discussed with
number of other Senators on the
floor today the complaints which ne
has been receiving because the feder-
al reserve banks in many states are
charging a higher rate Of discount On
loans secured by liberty bends that
the bonds themselves pay. In spite
of the fact that purchasing banks
were led to expect when they sub
scribed to these bonds that they could
borrow on them from the reserve
banks at the same rate the bonds
paid. If the banking and currency
committee does not voluntarily report
legislation to check this practice
Senator Smith intends to introduce a
joint resolution to deal with it.
Confidence is expressed by Senator
Smith and others that they can defeat
the bill Of Senator Mclean, Of Con-
necticut, which would amend the fed
eral reserve act so that reserve banks
could not discriminate in the rate OF
discount against banks which the re-
serve banks thought to have given too
| many advances on particular classes
of commercial paper loans based on
cotton for instance. \. r. NJ.

BY REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEW YORK, Oct. 16. - Stocks op- ened mainly higher today but before the short session had half way run its course selling of the industrials and specialties caused a general reversal, with heaviness at the close.
 The first and second preferred is sues of the Reading road materially augmented their gaiis but little was left of this advantage is- the final deal ings, although short coveringsh elped to reduce some of the more severe losses.
 Steels, equipments, oils and ship pings were the centers of weakness at extreme declines of one to three points a few specialties sustaining even great CT losses. Trading was light, sales barely totalling 235,OOO shares.
 News of the day was almost wholly lacking in encouraging factors. Apart from the serious situation created by the strike of the British miners. which again served to depress exchange oIl London, domesti cadvices stressed in creasingly backward conditions in many lines, especially the textile trade.
 Clearing banks continued to expand their loans and discounts. this being foreshadowed by the weeks heavy transfero funds. Loans increased slightly more than S42.O00,000, lifting the total. to, the new high record Of $5,495. .S65, ,O00. Reserves fell off by al most S10,O00.000. leaving liberal ex- cess, however, as against the large de ficit of the previous fortnight.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16 = The week in the financi-l market was replete with Interesting events which included payment of most Sf the outstanding balance of the Anglo-French half bill lion dollar loan and strong investment inquiry for new capital issues approx mating $1OO,0C0,O00.
 No less important in their bearing on the immediate future of the securi- ties market were the many surface indications that the prolonged period of credit ccs-traction is approaching d natural conclusion.
 It is almost year since the federal reserve board began to put the brakes on speculation by steady withdrawal of funds for non-essential purposes That period has witnessed a drastic revision of commodity prices and re- duction of loans with inestimable bene- fit it is claimed, to finance and indus try.

Arthur G. Walker. Of New York, the

charged with conspiracy by Sherman l..

nephew. at n hearing in the Probate
COurt in Boston yesterday.
Scarlcs died recently at Mcthuen.

$50. 600 900. of which Walker will re-

The nephew who alleges conspiracy

artist. and lives in Boston. By con
testing the will he has forfeited the

Mr.. Whipplr told the court. yestcr-
day that the will was IA part Of a cum

pear like the will of Edward +. Scar les
and not the will of their own conniv-
ance.
"AIr. Scarles had always been eccen-
trio. peculiar and abnormal in his ways
of life and in his talk. At the time tn"
will was being executed he was III
charge of n New York doctor. He was
also in charge of three New York
nurses. none of whom can now be found.
"A New York lawyer was there at

Atlantic City, Oct. 14.-How modern
scientific methods of craftsmanship can
be used for street car rides was told
the American Electric Railway AS
sociation convention here today by F.
G. Buffee, Of Kansas City, Mo-, who,
as chairman of committee, has been
studying the subject intensively.
Outstanding in Mr.. Buffce's declara-
tions was that street railways, because
Of competition, no longer are in posi-
tion to tell the public to take car rides
or leave them. .
Intensive advertising campaigns
through daily newspapers. car signs.
motion pictures and billboards, improved
service. courteous treatment of the
public by employees and improved facili-
ties for buying street car tickets handily
were recommended as means of in
crcasing sales.
Necessity for increased fares is one
reason given by Mr.. Buffce for need
for ride craftsmanship.
Unreliability and accidents hurt and
oftcntimes kill the jitney business. Mr..

For every person in the United
States there is at least one rat and 1t
costs every person an average of one
half cent a day to support the rat
population. This is conservative
estimate of the number of rats which
infest the country says the Maine De-
partment of Health quoting from fig
ures and facts gathered by the United
State Public Health Service. In
warming Maine people of the menace
which the rat is to both health and
prosperity, the Department further
states that it costs the United States
at least $1S0,O00.000 year to support
its rat population and urges that it is
high time to get busy Kidding the
country from this pest.
