were substantially higher, by compar-
ison with market values. In answer
to a question he said he did not know
.of New Mexico livestock man who
had made expenses during the last
three years.
Costs to High
Gov. Merritt c. Mechem spoke
briefly but very much to the point,
at the opening session. He declared
educational costs are now much
higher than the state can afford, and
therefore, as matter of sound bus
mess principle must be materially re-
duced. This statement was received
with enthusiasm. He said further
that he was strongly in favor of
having the legislature first ascertain
accurately the amount of revenue
available and then making the ap-
preparations to fit the revenue, rath-
er than first making the appropria-
tions and then trying to raise the re-
venue.
Merely Not Optimistic
Chairman Saint read telegram
from w. Ray Morley, of Magdalena.
Morley, who has been heavily inter-
ested in the livestock business for
many years, wired
Cattle, sheep, grazing lands and
ranch property have deprecated
90 to 70f6 in two years. Unless
tax values are cut accordingly,
stockmen cannot pay their taxes.
Educational and highway agencies
must stop wild orgy of spending
and practice same economy tax
payers have to practice or des-
truction will follow. 1t is up to
your commission to stop extrav-
agance and save the livestock in
dustry."
Government Helping
The federal government is taking
official notice of the precarious con-
iition of the livestock industry, and
IS waving some business principles

]. NJ. Reynolds, president of the
First National bank. of Albuquerque,
lad testified as to the attitude of

money than the banks can safely lend. |
Banks would like to help relieve the
ituation, he said. but cannot afford
o do so at the peril of stockholders

Seligman said the government is
accepting a valuation of S. on sheep,
ending 500 of that amount, while
he actual value of sheep is known
o be much less. Banks are now be-
ng compelled to call livestock paper,

SANTA FE BANK MEN
BUSILY WORKING ON
REORGANIZATION PLAN

Directors and officers OF the San
ia Fe bank, of this city, are work
ing on reorganization plans which
are believed to be practicable, it is
said upon reliable authority. State
Bank Examiner Read, who took
charge OF the institution on Mon
day OF last week on account Of de
pleted reserves" made his report on
the condition OF the bank on Tues
day afternoon. This report has been
treated as confidential by both Read
and the directors.
Surety Manager Here
When the bank suspended, it was
carrying some 5000 in deposits, of
which over S350,000 was in state funds
from the state treasurer's office. Ev-
cry dollar that the state had on de-
posit is amply protected by the sure
ty bond furnished by the bank, and
by State Treasurer Charles y.

b. Taylor, assistant manager OF the
Denver branch OF the L. s. Fidelity
and Guarantee company, OF Balti-
more, is here studying the situation.
He represents the company which
wrote the entire amount OF Strong's
bond The company. however, rein-
sured a large part of the risk. Tay-
lor said that he does not yet have
any definite information as to the
of the bank. and that un-
til he does have such information he
will not be able to make a statement
for publication.

HAYS HOLDS OUT
3O,OO,OOO BAIT
TO HIDDEN COIN
Postmaster General Proposes
3 Per Cent Interest on
Postal Savings Deposits.

WASHINGTON. July 2s.-Thirty mil
lion dollars a year was the bait held
out today by Postmaster General Hays
to those Americans who are keeping their
savings in the stocking bank.
The postmaster general, in continuing
his drive to coax money into the postal
savings banks, announced that new legis-
Ia ton soon will raise the interest rate
from , to s per cent on postal savings
deposits. The postmaster general be-
Heves that this will draw forth increased
deposits of at least $1,000 100000. netting
interest of SS0.OG0,O coo on money which Is
now tucked away in old stockings and
other hiding places.
Under this plan. the postmaster general
said today, such an enormous sum, ac-
cepted at United States postofices on
postal savings accounts and redeposited
in banks, would produce a remarkable
stimulating effect upon bushes.
Hays said today that the system long
in force has been equivalent to a fraud
upon depositors. AS the law now stands,
he said, although the Government pledges
. per cent annual interest, It actually
pays less. unless deposits are maintained
for a full year. He said it was desir-
able TO change this by making the pro-
posed per cent interest on deposits pay
able to depositors three times year.
Hays said that up TO this point the
Government has profteered" On the
money deposited.

NEW BRUNSWICK, May o.
The East Jersey Bridge Company OF
Perth Amboy was the lowest BIDDER
on the paying Of jackson street,
South River, among those who pre-
sented estimates for this work to the
Board of I'reeholders yesterday af-
ternoon and received the contract.
The bid of the Perth Amboy con-
Germ was $4S,59S.7S. The road is
to be of concrete base with warren
ite surface, paved from curb to curb.
The county and state will pay the
cost of paving the middle of the
street and the borough will finance
the paving of the extreme edges and
gutter.
The other bids on the work were
as follows: Joseph b. Stefano, OF
South River. $59,S29.30; 7. H. Rid
die, of New Brunswick, $49,020.5
Conrad Sebolt, of New Brunswick.
$49,31S.1S; George Gundrum, OF
South Amboy, $56,950.50; NJ. Irving
Fallon q Kanah, of South Amboy,
had a bid but no check accompanied
it, thus disqualifying it. 1t was
learned after the meeting that the
bid was $54 4S39.16. The awarding
of the contract to the East Jersey
Bridge Company is subject to the
approval of the South River council
and the State Highway Commission.
The Public Service Company has
a letter before the board informing
them the planking on the Deep Cut
bridge at South Amboy had been
temporarily repaired and that per-
manant repairs would be made as
soon as the material was available.
A resolution ws passed authoriz-
ing the officers of the board to enter
into contract with the State High
way Commission for state aid In
making road repairs.
1t is expected that the utility
company will lay before the Board
of Fraeholders at the meeting this
afternoon, a request for permission
to dump their supplies at the ex-
treme end of the concrete pavement
at Rogan's corner and at Ford's
corner, in preparation for the start
of the concrete work on the north
side OF this road. The south side of
the road has already been completed
and the Public Service Railway
company is holding up the compile
tion of the work. If permission for
this dumping is granted, the troll
ley company will be tied up, and
forced to start their part of the
work.
1t is likely that bids will be re-
ceived this afternoon for the fur
nishing of the lumber, advertised
for by the board.

BERLIN. May 5.-The cabinet of
night rendered it's resignation to
President Ebert, was continuing to
function today on compliance with
the presidents request that it remain
in office until Il new ministry was
organized. Informal conferences
were in progress today among coali-
ton party leaders.
Whether the present party block
will be able to send another cabinet
to the government bench in the
Reichstag is the subject of lively
conjecture as is the question whether
such a government could count upon
the benevolent neutrality of the
majority of the socialists which is
necessary for an effective working
majority. The new cabinet will also
be confronted with the prospect of
being called upon to affix Germany'S
signature to the entente protocol and
reparations, the nature of which
had not been revealed here upon to
this morning.
The reichstag was not in session
today on account of this being AS
cension Day, but Dr.. Simons, the for
eien minister, agreed to discuss the
situation with the Reichstag's COM
mittee on foreign relations. 1t is
known that DR.. Simons counted him.

to his appeal to President Harding
indicated a negative answer. That
Chancellor Fahrenbach and the rest
OF the cabinet would automatically

foregone conclusion, as the minis

success Of this attempt to win Presi-
