U. S. TO PAY BROKER FEE.
Retirement Of Bonds in Open Mar
ket Requires Commission Charge.

When the government goes into the
open market to buy liberty bonds and
victory notes for retirement it must
pay the amount of commission charg-
ed on the purchase when negotiated
through the stock exchange. accord
ing to a ruling made public yester-
day by the controller general Of the
United States.
The ruling was made on request Of
the Secretary of the Treasury. who
asked If such a commission must be
paid. 1t will result in the govern
ment paying out of its sinking funds
for retirement of securities a larger
price than otherwise.
The Secretary of the Treasury ask
ed concerning Interpretation of the
act of March 3, 1919, which provides
for the retirement of liberty bonds
and victory notes by purchase from
the open market, provided "the aver
age cost of the bonds and notes pur-
chased shall not exceed par and ac-
crued interest" The government has
purchased large quantities of securi-
ties for retirement at considerably
less than face value through low
prices on the oopen market

PRESIDENTS FRIENDS
SAY HE'LL RUN AGAIN

President Harding. in the opinion
of close friends will be candidate e
70 succeed himself in the White
House in 1924. A recent announce
ment that the President had pur-
chased the old Harding homestead in
Ohio was seized upon in some quar-
ters as an indication that the Presi-
dent proposed to retire from public
life at the close Of his present term.
1t was explained at the White
House yesterday that the President
was actuated by motives of senti-
ment. and that the purchase of the
old Harding home had no bearing
on his possible candidacy for the
presidency fwo years from now.
The homestead. with the exception
of d brief interim. has been in the
Harding family since 1918, when it
was purchased by the Presidents
great reat-grandfather.
Party Men for Second Term.
The republican congressional cam
paisn committee in an appeal for
funds not long ago clearly indicated
that il was the belief of members of
the committee that the President
would run again for the presidency.
and that the republican party would
insist upon him making the race. This
is the opinion also of leading re-
publican members of Congress
There has been little or no talk
about limiting Presidents to a single
term since 1912. when Theodore
Roosevelt was ;he bull moose candi-
date for President, and the democrats
put one-term plank in their plat
form. After Woodrow Wilson be-
came President. talk of a single term
law died out. and Mr.. Wilson was
elected to succeed himself
The job Of being President is a tre-
mendous one today. 1t is to be ex-
pected that a President may express
his conviction that a man would be
happier out of the White House, when
he is overburdened with work. But
whatever his personal inclinations. a
chief executive of the United States
would not decline the call of his
party to assume the task of direct
ing the government of the country,
it is said.

Bridge Shan, Battle Thrills
Crowds dt Sixth and B Streets

Stimulating war conditions for the
benefit of a crowd Of about 5000 civil
ian spectators. an Army engineer unit
yesterday afternoon fought off an
imaginary enemy while their COM
rades erected a temporary bridge over
a deep ravine at 9Th and B streets.
permitting reinforcements and am
munition wagons to cross the bar
rier.
Then. after the bridge was nicely
done and the "enemy" had been driven
forward, the soldiers became so ex-
hausted that they were forced to re-
treat over the structure and to destroy
their recent handiwork with two
charges of INT. The maneuvers were
performed "at great risk of life" to
give citizens generally concrete
idea of what sort Of an Army We have
and how it works under fire.
Another "Battle. Friday.
1t was the second of a series of ex-
hibitions planned by Brig. Gen. III. II.
BandholtZ. commanding the district of
Washington. for the purpose of putting
the Army and the civilians in touch
with one another. The initial perform
ance was by infantrymen at Sd street
and Missouri avenue. when machine
gun fire was a feature. The next DEM
onstration will be by cavalry, on Fri
day.

as one could want The field of ac-
ton lay between 9Th and 7th and b

the middle of this stretch of ground
was the discouraging ravine. ably

by dint of close observation one could
discern that the foliage was camou-
faginS two or three piles of lumber
To the rear were machine gun carts
and other wagon transports which
must be conveyed across the ravine.
What was to be done? Well, there
was some lumber and some perfectly
good Army engineers at hand. so the
officers agreed that ii would be a
good thing to build bridge. This
decision reached. the first step of
driving the enemy back from the
cornplishment was carried out in a
matter-of-fact way by an advance
line of skirmishers. who waded
through the water. climbed the OPP
posite bank. and threw themselves on
the ground. the while keeping up

NEW YORK, October 1S.-Over-
night announcements that two more
Standard subsidiaries proposed to de-
clare enormous stock dividends
served to check the downward tend
ency in the oil department generally,
in today's curb trading. although it
was evident that this news had been

Vacuum Oil was the fifth of the
standard Oil companies to announce
the calling of special meeting of
stockholders to vote on an increase
IN the capital. The proposed increase
Is from Slo.00O.0c0. to S70.000.0O0, and
reduction in the par value from

houncement shortly before the open

Savings in National Banks.

Evidence If increasing prosperity
and thrift of the. public l. reflected in
the reports received by Controller of
the Currency CrisSinger from national
banks. relating particularly to the
number of savings accounts and saw
ingS deposits in these associations on
June 50 last.
These reports show that there were
5.1S2 national banks in the couti-
mental United States carrying savings
accounts or operating savings depart
mentS and that they were cuStodians
of S3.0ie.054 400 savings deposits
credited to S,S13.321 depoSitors. to
whom the banks We're paying inter-
est at an average rate of 3..5 per cent
These figures representing the great
est amount of deposits of this char
acter ever reported by national
hankS). compared with June 80. 1921,
show an increase of 162 in the num-
her of banks which are featuring this
class of business, an increase of I64,-
n85 in number of depoSitorS and an
increase of SSs.499,000 in savings de-
positS. The average rate of interest
paid on savings deposits for the two
years remains practically the same.
The increases noted do not fully
express the difference between the
TWO dates, by reason of the fact that
in the returns for June 30, 1922, all
savings deposits We're excluded which
did not come within the characterize
ron of savings deposits as defined by
the Federal Reserve Board. There are
many national banks having savings
accounts that do not require thirty
days notice of withdrawal. returns
from which were included in the 1921
summary, but not in the 1922
The eastern states rank first in the
number of savings depoSitors and
amount OF their deposits. with 1919
hanks. 3.229,50S depOsitors and S1l96.-
200, 600 deposits. The middle western
states are second in number of de-
positors and amounts of deposits, with

across the ravine. the enemy was
driven half mile back and the

The second phase of the maneuvers

that a day of intermittent firing had
passed, with the opposition gaining
ground at an ominous rate. Retreat
over the bridge was the only solution.
and so the wagons were taken back

the big surprise of the day.
The bridge was deserted for the
moment. Suddenly two soldiers ran
forward from the American side. each
carrying what looked like bag of
ginger snaps or Jolly pops: Both bags
We're deposited beneath the timbers
of the bridge and the men ran back
to cover. There followed an instant
of suspense and the silence was rent
by L terrific explosion. accompanied
by deafening report, geyser of
