TY OF BANKS FOR CREDIT.

st. Louis, Mo-, Dec. 1S.-Establish-
ment of cooperative farmers banks
as method Of assuring credit to
agriculturists was considered Satur-
day at the final session of the nation

ers and rural banks.

ibility of building large elevators in
the nine principal terminal cities, and
smaller elevators in various sections
of the country.
The nine proposed grain centers
are: Chicago, Omaha, Kansas City,
Seattle, Galveston, Baltimore, Mime
apolis-St. Paul, st. Louis and New
Orleans.

tee would be appointed to meet Jan.

A Puzzle for the IdeaIists.

The steamship companies report to
the Commissioner of immigration
that 100000 Europeans wish to
emigrate to the United States.
Haven't these millions heard that
this country, after rejecting Mr.. Will
sons Covenant. is going to be a ter
rible place to live in? Don't they un-
derstand what the World and the
Evening Post has been laundering
that an America outside the League
is an America isolated, militaristic
and commercially embarrassed?
Don't these 100000 would-be en-
igrants believe what the World and
the Post have been saying about the
tremendous advantage Europe and its
League will have over this reaction
ary country?
The heart Of the world is breaking
to get to these wicked shores.-N.

PEOPLE DEMAND
SAVINGS FROM
BOSTON BANKS

Boston, Sept. = 27.-The fremont
Trust company and the Dorchester
Trust comapny today esta blished NOR
atoriums, by which depositors will be
required to wait 90 days before with
drawing funds. Officials of both COM
panies declared their institutions were
sound and that the moratoriums were
established to protect the people
from themselves
Payment of funds was stopped at
the fremont Trust company branch
on Warren street, Roxbury, shortly
after the opening hour. Crowds of
apprehensive depositorS had gathered
outside the fremont company's Court
street Office and the State street head :

The run on the fremont Trust Co
started Saturday following the closing
by State order of the Cosmopolitan
company, the fourth bank to be clos
ed since the bursting of Charles Pom
zis get-rich-quick bubble.
A crowd of men and women was
lined up outside the fremont Trust
company in Courts treet today
Thirty police were on duty keeping
them from pickpockets. Mounted
police kept a lane through Court St
clear for traffic. The line extended
in twos from the bank down Court
hill and in the other direction UP
Court street to fremont Row.
Smaller and somewhat less demon
strative crowds were gathered outside
the fremont Trust branch in Rox-
bury and the Fidelity Trust com
pany on Summer street.
Thomas J. Boynton former United
States Attorney and an officer of the
| fremont Trust addressed the gather
| ing on Court street, assuring them
that the 90 day close was invoked for
their protection and that all would
| get their money.
Applause greeted Doynton's re-
marks but the crowd did not move
away.
