prices at first showed strength to-day as
O result of figures on farm reserves, the

which ranged from the same as yester-
days finish TO Ia cents higher, with
December at s1.15% to S1.16A and May

crate setbacks all around. Week end

In the last hour. The close was un-
settled at Is cent net decline to like
advance, with December at S1.159s TO
$1.l5B and May at S1.19ss to s1.2O.

wheat. After opening u cent to Is cent
and q cent higher, including December
at 47B to 48B cents, corn receded TO
slightly less than yesterdays closing
prices. Yesterdays market closed steady
at "a cent net lower to Il cent and "a

GOVERNOR HARDING
DEFENDS F. R. BOARD
Reserve Bank Officers Are Not
U. s. Officials, but Private
Citizens, He Says.

The reply of w. p. G. Harding. Gov
ernor of the Federal Reserve Board, to
allegations that the board had approved
of or permitted reckless waste of money
in the building operations Of the Fed
eral Reserve banks and in the matter
Of salaries paid by the Federal Re-
serve Bank of New York to it's officers
and employees was issued yesterday in
the form OF letter to Sydney Ander-
son, chairman of the joint commission
OF agriculture inquiry. Before Mr.. An
derson hearing was had a short time
policy OF the Reserve Board made by
John Shelton Williams, formerly Comp
troller of the Currency.
In the letter Gov. Harding stated
that 1.-The officers of Federal Reserve
Banks are not officers of the United
States. They are private citizens, just
as officers of national banks, which
are, like Federal Reserve banks. char
tered under an act of Congress, are
private citizens" He directs attention
to the fact that the conduct of the
business Of a reserve bank, especially
that Of the one in this city, "the largest
banking institution in the country, re-
quires the services in executive and
other capacities of trained officials and
experts who will devote all Of their
time to the work Of the bank, not only
in the ordinary routine but in the study
Of a great variety Of technical SUBJ
jects."
He said also that they "are not per-
mitted to engage in any other business
or political activities" that their SER
vice in the Federal Reserve Bank is not
a stepping stone to political career nor
does it afford means of outside financial
profit" and that 1T would be impossible
to secure the services of competent and
efficient officials for the Federal Re-
serve banks were their salaries to pe
measured by the salaries paid TO the
political officers of the Government"
He took occasion to refer to the sal
aries paid to national bank examiners
and with respect to them stated that
Mr.. williams, as Comptroller Of the
Currency, recognized the fact that to
obtain competent national bank exam
iners he would be obliged to pay regard
to the technical skill and ability Of these
men and to what they could earn In the
employ Of private banking institutions
and corporations.
Gov. Harding concluded his letter by
stating that the minutes showed that
Mr.. Williams voted affirmatively on 80
per cent. Of the salary Increases, includ-
ing those which he criticises, and that
he did not vote against any Of them, but
was absent from meetings at which the
other 20 per cent were considered.

BOARDMAN CITIZENS TO
HAVE RABBIT DRIVE
(East Oregonlan speeial.l }

BOARDMAN, Sept. 26.-An exten-
sive rabbit campaign was worked out
last night, Albert Swain of the U. S.
Biological Survey cooperating with the
local committee. Poisoning in sew
eral ways is to be employed by every
body. Several wire fence traps are to
be built and a series of drives covering
the project will be staged. One good
method would be to put jag of hay
at some point where rabbits congre-
gate. AS they become used to feeding
there fence should be placed about
the pile and poisoned hay put outside
the fence. This method can be used
wherever the rabbits are working on a
stack. With such concerted action,
followed up by a vigorous winter cam
paign, it will be possible to have a
clear season next summer, especially
if there is period of snow this winter
to expedite the poison campaign.
l. A. Hunt, Mgr. of the Columbia
Basin Hay Growers Assn. was in
Boardman yesterday in the interests
of the ferry. Mr.. Hunt is trustee of
