Increase Interest Rate.

His plan of reorganization, which
will be submitted to congress, has
been approved by bankers of the east
and middle west. Mr.. Hays assured
the bankers that he had no intention
of entering into competition with
private savings banks, but hoped
only to make the postal bank a feed
er of established institutions. He
pointed out that doubling the present
interest rate would still leave it be-
low the average paid by the savings
banks
Private banks can not hope to
reach the vast boarded wealth which
offers particular field for postal saw
ings expansion, Mr.. Hays explained.
Seventy per cent of the present 0S,000
depositors are of foreign extraction,
he said, and they will trust no one but
the United States government.
Mr. Hays plan is as follows:
Plans. Many Changes.
Increase the interest rate from 2
to 8 per cent.

FEDERAL AID FOR
FOREST PROTECTION

The State of Washington will re-
ceive $4,000 and Oregon will re-
ceive $4,000 of Federal funds for the
protection of their forests from fires
during the fiscal year beginning July
L, according to advices just received
at the local offices of the u. S. For
est Service. Twenty-Five other States
will also be eligible to share in the
total of 100000 made available by
Congress on July 1, for the better
protection of the forest resources of
the United States. This cooperation
was first authorized by the Act of
March /, 1911, commonly known as
the Weeks Law" and has continued
ever since. Last year total of
$125,000 was appropriated for the
work, but Congress this year, realiz-
ing the importance of fire prevention
in our forests, increased the amount
to be expended At least three more
states are expected to join the ranks
of cooperators shortly.
