Washington, Jan. 9-The practice of certain banks in organizing credits by a process of re-discounting their own paper with other banks, and thereby endangering their safety and the interests of their depositors, was scored today by Comptroller of the Currency D. R. Crissinger in his an- nual report to Congress.
 Congress was asked by the Comp troller to amend the banking laws and impose drastic limitations on banks that fewer failures from this cause will result, and that greater banking safety will be insured.
 Crissinger said that if Congress had

T ENA or Lima, as 1t is frequently
- spelled, Is one of the most con
flictlng Of feminine names. Etymol-
ogists find 1t derived from the same
source as Helen and also discover 1t
through the evolution Of Charlotte.
Who shall say which Is correct7
1t Is not difficult to understand how
Lena or Lima came to be a contrac-
ton of Helena, but preference Is gen.
orally given to the theory that Lima
Is the correct form and that Its real
course Is identical with the great Karl
of the Franks who was the forefather
Of the feminine Charlotte.
Charlotte of Savoy, who married
Louis XI, introduced her name to
French royalty, whence Ii travelled
quickly to Germany. There IT changed
form. becoming first Lettchen, then
Caroline, and finally Lima. Meanwhile
Charlotte d'Albret of France, who was
given In marriage into the House of
Tremouille. was responsible for the
brave Lady Derby carrying 1t into
England. The queen of George III,
bringing the name from Germany, es-
tablished in England the popularity
of the dlminutive Lima.
The Spanish make Lola from the
contracted form of Charlotte or Car
lota, as they call her, and the French
have on equivalent Lolotte. Caroline,
the form from which our own Lima
is probably most often derived, was
popular In Germany and was brought
to England by the wife of George II,
who gave 1t vogue among the nobility.
The lovely mysterious iapls lazuli
Is the talismanic stone assigned to
Lena. 1t promises her freedom from
danger and disease; indeed, 1t is said
to be a cure for fevers. Friday Is
her lucky day and 8 her lucky number.

1t Is needless to say that this par

he had into the game. He vas un.
usually gifted as a pitcher. and might
easily have got Into one of the big
leagues, too.
But he had the good sense to know
that baseball was not a steady busi-

stead of selling an opportunity to
make fairly big money early in youth.
he was content to try the banking
business on a small salary.
OF course there are q good many
men who started In the banking busi-

about where they were when they
started. But at least they still have

How You Can Bar

BY R. l.. DUNCAN

(Director Radio Institute of America All devices so far put forth to clim- mate static interference also cut down the signal strength of the radio sta tion.
 But a balanced crystal set con- struct by the English Marconi com. pany operates with fair success. It consists of two carborundum de tectors energiZed by local battery current. One detector is adjusted tc a high degrc of scnsitiveness and the other to a lesser degree.
 When heavy charge of static en- tors the aerial, the crashing sounds are somewhat eliminated by the reac- ton process of the crystal rectiiiers But the incoming signals arc likewise Weakene,.
 In tropical countries, where one or dinarily can receive transmission from a station 500 miles away, it is at times impossible to receive even 1O miles on account of static interfer- ence.
 To reduce state interference to a minimum, most transmitting appara- tus today employ a 500 or 600-cycle
