The Mexican Conference.

The international conference on Mex
leo was continued until late last night,
but no official statement was made at
the close of the meeting. IT was gener-
ally felt. however, that the committee
had passed through the most difficult
part OF it's sessions and that the work
now being done was OF a constructive
nature. This optimism apparently was
based on nothing more than the fact
that the conference had been allowed to
enter a new week. The end of the con-
ference was anticipated last week.

DEPRECATES FEATURE
OF BANK ADVERTISING
Eugene Meyer Regards Practice OF
Some Financial Institutions Det-
rimental to U. S. Reserve.

Eugene Meyer. managing director
Of the War Finance Corporation, in
a letter to J. II. Pulicher. president
Of the American Bankers Association,
deprecates the practice of some banks
in advertising they are neither mem
bers of the federal reserve system nor
do they use it's rediscounting facili-
ties The bankers association. Mr
Meyer suggested, should take steps
to stop the practice.
such banks" the letter says. are
by no means in all cases the strongest
hanks. although they seek to increase
their standing and reputation by such
statements. 1t is even more true that
such banks are by no means the
banks which are serving the best in
terests of the people OF their terri
tory. Especially is this true in the
agricultural districts.
such statements as ! refer to tend
to impair and diminish the useful
ness of the federal reserve system,
established by the people of the
United States to serve as an elastic
banking and currency system for the
benefit of all the people. 1t would
appear that the American Bankers
Association should take prompt ac-
tion with a view to stopping the
practice of making statements in
furious to the public interests"

Great Interest Aroused.
! Much interest attaches TO the census
of the public debts because OF the move
Tor a constitutional amendment pro-
hibiting the further issue of tax-eXempt
bonds. and because it is not known now
,Ihe length to which the sale OF tax
exempt securities has gone.
Treasury officials have said repeatedly
that the continued issue of x-exempt
securities has forced much higher fed
.ral tax rate because of the tendency OF
large taxpayers to invest in that form
of securities

1inued issue of taX-frec bonds. The
census of ten years ago gives no crite-
rion for estimating the present out
standing amount Of such bonds. it was
said by officials, who pointed out that
the wartime and postwar issues or
securities OF political subdivisions had
tremendously increased the total.

come at a time when the federal gov

 Struggle Today

Have you got your money placed?
 Carrying their fragile half-game lead very carefully. the St. Louis Browns will appear at the Polo Grounds early this afternoon for the doub1e-header which opens a four game series with the Yankees. The Missourians are fresh from clean sweep over the Boston Red Sox, after getting their bumps from the humble Athletics, while the Yankees dropped two of their series of three with the Indians.
 To do that it will be necessary to un1innber the Yankee bats, for the in vaders are pounding the ball steadily. williams has hit safely in the last 28 games, a big league record for this season, while Sisler has made one or more hits in each of p successive battles.

Penzsant May Be Bought"
 But WiZL Tanks DeZiUer |?

Just why a hand-picked ball club like the New York Yankees, main taining a tremendous salary lis: to supplement the outlay of nearly a half million dollars in the purchase of stars within the last three years, should be in second place today pre- cents a moraS, perhaps, on the sub ject Of legitimate and healthful up building. The St. Louis Browns, now leading the way in the American League, have been assembled at a comparatively, moderate cost. The Tanks are and always will be an eXtrayagant venture.
 So nauch money has been spent on the club since Ruth came here from Boston three years ago that the rest of the league cannot be blamed for making the oft-repeated claim that the Tanks are buying the pennant, But it is easy to buy a pennant if the exchequer can stand the strain. It seems quite another matter to get an F. O. B. delivery of same
 The pennant is bought and paid for so far as the Yankees are con- cerned. But they may yet be plac-

RECORD PRICE FOR COLT.

Deauvil1e, France, Aug. 25-A. K.

In round numbers, 200,000 francs was pad by MT Cacomber. King Alfonso of Spain, on the other hand, holds the record for the low price.

ed in the annoying position of hav- ing paid for something they will not get.
 Thfrty-five More Games
 The finish is only thirty-f;Ve games away, and, owing to a league rule covering the matter. tho Tanks are through with buying for the year. They must now proceed with wket they have, which most certainly smacks of bias and favoritism. Take a check book cut of Colonel Rup- pert's hand and the club is at it's wits end.
 If the Yankees fail to win. and since they finish on the road this is entirely possible, some difficulty may be experienced in recognizing the team next year. A second run ner is almost certain to cost Miller Huggins his job and such stormy in dividuals as Carl Mays and others who have failed to deliver may have to seek employment elsewhere.
 Immediate results is the demand. Perhaps that accounts for the his toricai buying and selling that goes on here every time either of the To- cal clubs shows signs of letting some rival make a real race of it.
