PROSPERITY IS
FAR IN FUTURE
BANKERS LEARN
Movement Of Money
From Securities Into
Business Held as Need.
World Conditions Not
Favorable for Boom,
r O b erts Declares.

Chicago. Oct. Additional prosper
ity is appearing as a slow convaiescent

out of securities back into commercial
channels, according to George A. Rob
erts of the National City bank of New
York, speaking before the convention

citation here Wednesday.
Interest rates, based on the law of
supply and demand, he declared, have
fallen because borrowing has been con-
fined chiefly to the purpose of paying
old debts.
I'VE may expect the accumulation Of
funds available for investment to go
on, probably at a higher rate than
in the last two years, for these have
not been good years in the business
world, he said. The shift, of funds,
however, from business uses into Sc
curities, which has been SO large q
factor in the decline of interest rates
in the last two years, will not con-
tinue.
"As to general business prosperity, it
is natural that there would be some
recovery from the depression of 1921,
but world conditions are not such as
to give encouragement to the belief
that general and sustained prosperity is
at hand for this or any other country.
Meanwhile industrial costs. the
costs of transportation, construction
work, living expenses and tracing ex-
penses are kept up nearly at the wal
level" Mr.. Roberts continued, by the
arbitrary power of powerful labor or
CARNATIONS.
These conditions are not favorable
to general prosperity.
AN equilibrium must be established,
not only in world trade but throughout
the industrial organization before con
ditions are favorable to general pros
perity," he said.
Il look to see a further but gradual
reduction of long term interest rates.
but it would be remarkable after such
a waste of capital as the world has
seen if we should get back to pre-war
rates within several years.

New London, Conn.-(Correspond-

Alcohol was vigorously assaulted SO
years ago in this seaport, even with
more vigor than since the coming in of
the Volsteadian era. His enemies in
1912 fought under the banner of the
Washington Total Abstinence society,
which was kept aloft for many years.
But the time came when the banner
was trailed in the dust and indiffer-
ence killed off the attacks.
In those days there were many So
called temperance societies, ranging
from the Washingtonians who practiced
total abstinence to the Rechabites, who
were compromising in nature, popular
with the middle of -the-road folks, who
permitted the use, juidciously. of a
little beer. cider, wine and other light
drinks. Rum, gin and whisky were
barred, while brandy was only for use
at the sick bed.
In 1S43, with a population of 5000,
the Washingtonians had a membership
of 1000. BY a crusade the number
of open drinking places was reduced
from IS TO 81. The small children
were enrolled in the cold water army"
and the parades were of great interest.

The value of Tanlac as a family

After putting this splendid tonic to the
test with herself and three children,
Mrs. Deckret says:
"'Tanlac has been such a great
blessing to myself and three children
that it has won my lifelong praise.

two or three months that l was just

nor sleep to do much good and had a

Tanlac and am almost a well woman

John Frank, aged six, and Carolina,
who is four, both complained of head
aches, pains in the stomach and were
very restless at night. They had no
appetites, were thin and pale, and
took no interest in play or anything
else.
And Joseph Paul, two years old,
was in just about the same fix. l could
not get him to eat, he was fretful day
and night, and was very thin
and pale. They have taken about two
bottles of Tanlac each now, and health

Noblernan Forced
to Cut Expenses
Because of Taxes

London.-(Correspondence of The
Associated Press.)-The Duke of
Northumberland is hard up, as are
many other members Of the old nobility
in these days of excessive taxation, and
is compelled to retrench like man un-
titled folk in order to make both ends
meet.
He has sold many Of his northern
properties, including several large ho-
tells. To a wealthy Paris art dealer
he recently rented his magnificent
mansion on the Thames, near Kew. 1t
is one of the biggest residences in the
country.
And still the duke feels the necessity
of cutting down expenses. He has de-
cided to close Alnwick castle, which
has been the Northumberland home of
the Percys since early in the fourteenth
century. He will retain only a few
rooms in the castle for use when he
and the duchess are in the north. The
rest of the place will be shut up. The
shooting on the estate is to be let.

Constantinople, Oct. 4.-The Turk
lsh ~nationalists have accepted in prin-
ciple the allied note regarding the
Near Eastern settlement, it was an
nounced here Wednesday forenoon.
A c~ommunique issued by General
Harrington, the British commander-in-
chief, regarding the Mudania confer
ence which he is attending. says the
conference is proceeding satisfactorily
and that Ismet Pasha, the nationalist
representative, has re-issued orders to
the nationalist troops to avoid all con-
tact with the British.
The French official communique
SAYS;
The preliminary meeting of the
allied generals was held at Mudania
yesterday morning and ended with the
draft of the protocol. Thanks to the
coDciliatory disposition manifested by
both sides, there was no difficulty in
reaching an agreement as to the ma
jority of the clauses as a basis for the
peace conference.
THE meeting ended at s p. M. and
resumed this morning at 10. During
the interval the allied generals ex-
changed views in order to examine the
northumberland objections of the
Turkish delegates. The general i'm
preston is very satisfactory. The ar
rival OF the Greek military forces, in
Guiding Colonies Platiras and Sarriyan-
mis-, is expected this morning."
The joint allied note to Mustapha
Renal Pasha, the Turkish nationalist
care for France, Lord Curzon for
Great Britain and Count Sforza for
Italy. In it the three allied govern
ments invited the Angora assembly to
a conference at Venice or elsewhere
with plenipotentiaries of Great Britain
France, Italy, Japan, Rumania, Jugo-
Slavia and Greece, with the object of
negotiating and consolidating a final
treaty of peace between Turkey
Greece and the allied powers.
Regarding the terms of such a
treaty, the note stated:
The three governments take this
opportunity to declare that they will
favor the desire of Turkey to recover
Thrace as far as the River Martha
including Adrianople."
The note promised the willing sup
port of the three governments to the
drawing of a frontier line on this ba-
sis on condition that the Angora gov
eminent did not send armies into the
neutral zones during the peace negoti-
atoms.
The note declared 1t would be un-
derstood that steps would be taken in
drawing such a treaty to safeguard the
interests of Turkey and her neighbours
