State and federal authorities will CO.
operate in the prosecution of the al

police and government agents in the
Philadelphia district last Friday.
The federal authorities will move for
the immediate deportation of those radi-
Gals who have not taken out citizenship

WILL MAETERL|NCK
SPEAK IN FRENCH?
Question Of Tongue in Which
Belgian Poet Will Lecture
Here Raises Controversy

just how many PhiladeIphians would
be willing to hear the great Maurice
Maeterlinck. Belgian poet, dramatist
and philosopher, if he lectures in the
French tongue, is the question which is
puzzling the Bryn Mawr College endow-
ment fund committee. under whose
auspices he is scheduled to speak at
the Academy Of Music on January 10.
The controversy which has been
waged in New York city as a result of
the fiasco of NJ. Maeterlinck's attempt
to deliver lecture in "phonetic" Eng
'iSh. is likely to be transferred to this
city, according to New York dispatches
and the statement of the committee
here.
j. Il. Pond, NJ Maetcrlinck's lecture
manager, and Henry Russell, his per-
Sonal friend and representative. are the
centcrs Of the storm. Relations be-
tween the Belgian poet aud hiq man
ager are said, by members of the COM
mittee, to be strained to the breaking
point. In fact, when reached on the
long distance phone last night, Mr..
Pond told the endowment fluid com
mittee that he had been refused all
interviews with NJ. Maeterlinck. who
would not even speak TO him.
Cancelled Many Engagements
Mr.. Fond declared, eve done moth
ing but cancel engagements TODAY. Phila-
In1nlin IN 4,
there if he speaks in French or with
an Interpreter. Baltimore, Pittsburgh
and Ann Arbor, Mich. have all can
cc!ed their dates. In Brooklyn and
Manhattan, the people are demanding
their money back"
"A tri1e strong" was the way the
statement that Philadelphia had re-
fused to have him speak, was charac-
terized at the college today. but the
committee under whose auspices he is
TO speak admitted that they were in a
quandary.
1--WE could have filled the Academy
if NJ. Maeterlinck had delivered his
lecture IN English they asserted
but if he is gong to speak in French.
even with an Interpreter, we will have
to find Il small hall, as there are not
SO very many Philadelphians who would
go to a lecture in = foreign language. +"
Ticket Sale Held Up
As result. the ticket sale is being
held up and the committee is making
vigorous efforts TO get TO the dis
tinguished visitors ear. A representa-
tive has been sent over to try to reach
some satisfactory agreement on the
subject of the lecture.
Meanwhile the lecture tour on which
tho Belgian poet was to deliver his
thoughts m "New Intimations of I'm.
mortality" is hanging in the balance.
NJ. Maeterlinck. in n signed statement,
has said that all future addresses will
be given in French. because of the
laughable failure of his phonetic lee
ture in New York city. He is being con
CURED with in this by his representa-
tive, Mr.. Russell. On the other hand.
Mr.. Pond insists that his contracts
with the author Of the "Blue Bird,
call for lectures in English. that the
tickets are sold on that basis, and
that of NJ Maeteriuck does not use
the language with which American au :
diences are familiar. it will be q
pretty big imposition on them"

BANKERS CONSIDER
REDISCOUNT RATES
Scramble for Out-of- Town Bal
ances Condemned by Head of
Federal Reserve System

Washington. Jan. 6.-An appeal to
the bankers of tho country not TO raise
interest rates on denosits in a scramble
for out of town balances was made
today by Governor Harding. of the Fed
cral Reserve Board. in opening a con
ference of representatives of clearing
house associations from all parts of the
country.
Governor Harding served warning
that the Federal Reserve Board did not
recognize any relations between the re-
discount rates of Federal Reserve banks
and the interest rates paid by mem-
Der banks Of deposit and gave notice
that the board would be free 10 raise
or lower its rediscount rates whenever
the industrial or commerciai situation
might require such action.
About fifty bankers were present.
After Governor Harding had completed
his remarks they went into executive
session to consider the question Of in
tCreSt rates.
Governor Harding predicted that a
further increase over the present redls-
count rate Of 4ai per cent at the Fed
eral Reserve Bank of New York would
be necessary, but he protested against
"a scramble for deposits.
I'VE do not see why raise in redia-
count rates should bring about such a
scramble" he said. The Federal Re
serve Bank rate increases are only TEN
porary. whereas relations of the bank
crS with their customers are supposed
to he permanent.
"No customer should be led to look
upon deposits as an Investment, and the
banks should not look upon deposits
other than rs liability
Competition by bankers with the in
yestmcnt market was not conducive TO
sound banking, Governor Harding said.
"While we have turned our backs
on the period of war financing" he
continued, I'VE cannot expect in the
immediate future u condition such As
was considered normal under pre- war
standards. We will reach normal only
when the obligations of the government
are greatly reduced and the remainder
absorbed by the investing public.
"Tuesseutial loans should be dis
couraged. Federal Reserve banks must
20 kent in condition to meet industrial
and commercial demands and ready to
provide for any emergency. In ordinary
times a raise in rediscount rates is the
natural corrective of undue expansion
but now we cannot add to our gold
holdings by raising rates, nor must we
do ANYTHING TO discourage production. ~

FOR TWO-TERM GOVERNORS
Bv a STAT Correspondent

Harrisburg, Pa, Jan. 6.--Let the
voters of the state pass on amendments
to the federal constitution, was the pro
posal submitted to the committee on
constitutional revision and amendment
this afternoon by former Judge James
II. Reed, of Pittsburgh.
IL such section had been incor-
porated in the present constitution it
would have been necessary for the Penn :
sylvania Legislature to have submitted
the national prohibition and woman
suffrage amendments to referendum OF
the voters. Judge Reeds resolution
recommending the change in the consti- :
tuition for the adoption Of federal
amendments was referred to committee
without debate.
"Such a section in the constitution
would not decrease the powers of the
Legislature, Judge Reed explained
after the commission had recessed. 1T
would merely provide for submitting
federal amendments to the people so as
to permit them to express their will.
right to express their opinion on suf-
frage and prohibition.
Another attempt may be made to
have the commission sponsor a pro-
posa to permit re election of COVER
nors.
Early in it's deliberations the com
mission vetoed proposal to recommend
the amendment of the present section
of the constitution which prevents a
governor from succeeding himself.

One of the biggest proposals that
will be brought before the commission
will be a suggestion to have it recon-
mend that the state purchase all lands
within it's confines which are nonarablc
and suitable only for the growth of
timber for the purpose of rcforestation
The present administration is to
strongly favor this project which has
the Endorsement of Clifford Pinchot,
member of the forestry commission, and
others interested in reforestation in the
state. A suggestion may be made to
bring about the purchase of such lands
through bond issue.
New Members Sworn In
When the commission on constitu-
tional revision and amendment resumed
its sitting at noon its first official act was
to swear in Vance G. Mccormick. of
Harrisburg, and John A. Noli, of Phil

ministered by Cyrus f. Woods, secre-
tary of the commonwealth.
Mccormick succeeds Attorney Gen
