FEDERAL RESERVE
BANK LOSES CASE

Charlotte, N. c., March 28.-The
temporary injunction against the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond,
obtained by certain North Carolina
banks about a year ago, in the So
called "par clearance" controversy, is
made permanent in a decision filed to-
day by Judge James l.. Webb, of the
State Superior Court, as a result of
the recent hearing of the case at
Monroe, N. G.
The defendant Federal Reserve
Bank is thereby permanently en-
joined" says the declaration, from
refusing to accept drafts when ten
dered plaintiff banks in payments of
checks drawn on them under the op-
tion given them under the provisions
of the so-called "Par Clearance" AcS
of the 1921 Legislature of North
Carolina.
Cannot DishOnor Check
The defendant is also enjoined
from returning as dishonored any
check payment for which in ex-
change drafts by plaintiff banks, or
either O fthem, has been rendered
under the provision of said act and
defendant refuses to accept the
samc," also from posting for non
payment am check payment, from
which in exchange draft has been
rendered by plaintiff banks and re-
fused by the defendant bank.
The reserve bank is further en-
Joined from publishing of the name
Q fanny of the plaintiff banks, about
250 in number, in any list or pub
llcation designed to be circulated
among bankers or others without the
explicit consent of such plaintiff
banks.
AS previously forecast the reserve
bank, through counsel, has taken for
NAL steps to carry the case to the
State Supreme Court on appeal and
the controversy is expected to be
taken finally to the Supreme Court
OF the United States.
The controversy ccnters in the
question Of the right calmcd by the
State banks to charge an exchange
fee for the clearance Of checks drawn
upon them and to be free from allcg-
ed threat or annoyance by the reser-
We bank, while the later insists upon
policy of universal "par clearance. ="

NOTES BY THE COUNTY
DEMONSTRATION AGENT

If we expect good fruit this sum-
mer it is necessary that the fruit be
sprayed for the control of worms and
rot. The winter spray is for the
good of the tree, but the summer
sprays are for the fruits; and in ap-
plying care must be taken that the
young fruit on the tree be thoroughly
coated with the spray material.
The time for the first spray for
peaches, plums and apples for pre-
venting wormy fruit is near at hand.
1t must be applied at the right time
or it will be worthless.
The following formula should be
used for this spraying:
Powdered arsenate of lead lb
Quick or lump lime ----------2 ID
For those who have only few
trees to spray the following may be
Of help.
Powdered arsenate of lead-1
ounce or about 1 tablespoonful.
Quick lime--2 ounces or 2 Jumps
the size of an egg.
Water-3 gallons.
Make up the solution in the follow
ing manner:
Make thin paste of the arsenate
OF lead and water, and slake the lime
to whitewash (warm water giving
the best results in slaking), pour to-
gether and water up to fifty gallons.
This mixture should be kept we'll
stirred during the spraying process.
Time of spraying: In case of
peaches and plums, apply when about
three fourths of the shucks have slip
ped, which is about IL to Is days after
the tree is in full bloom.
For the apple apply after the bloom
parts have fallen and before the
bloom cup closes.

Paris. Dec. 3.
The month end liquidations last week
were met without the difficulty that
was expected fortnight ago, when 1t
seemed evident that the Lausanne con-
ference would affect the Bourse .situa-
ton. Bourse officials explain the ap-
parent lack of interest in Lausanne by
pointing to the greater concern over
the proposed Brussels conference. which
already has caused precautions to be
taken to strengthen Bourse positions
generally by selling out lines subject
to political fluctuations.
Unfortunately even such sound H.
nance has a strange repercusslon, for
having noted the selling period The pub
lie seems to have cooled toward the
markets generally. Not even rentes.
Turkish metallurgical and railroad Sc
curitiAs are attracting the usual volume
of business despite the fact that only
one big Credit Foncier Issue Is being
offered to investors.
Oil stocks last week showed a per-
sistent hesitancy. apparently reacting to
the unencouraging reports from the
United States as well as to the new
tang1e which is looming UP at Lausanne
over the Mosul oil fields. Rumanian
oil stocks were dealt in early in the
week. but even the hardest SPECTATORS
would not indulge in either Rumanan
or Russian stocks until the situation is
cleared up.
i. The banks, both French and foreign,
remained firm throughout the week.
The weekly statement of the Bank of
France shows a new increase In note
circulation Of 325.000,000 francs.

Dress Outlook Brighter.
The better value which farmers re-

having a good effect on the sale Of
dresses, according to David N. Moses
sohn, executive director of the Asso-
cated Dress Industries of America.
"The fact that the farm income next
year will be even more favorable" he
said, "brghtens to the prospects for busi-
ness In the dress industry for 1923. We
can assume that each woman Of the
farm will purchase not less than one
dress and many OF them will buy two or
more. If We set the average at one and
half dress. we can look forward to
the sale of not less than 10000. 900

Divers Have Hard Task.

The divers on the British Admiralty
salvage steamer PAGER have recovered
so far s10,oOO,OOO worth Of bullion
from the steamship Laurentic. The
vessel (14,S92 gross tonnage), formerly
Of the White Star line, was serving as
an auxiliary cruiser when she was
sunk by torpedo off the north coast
Of Ireland in January, 1917. More
than 300 lives were lost and about
.S20,000,000 worth of bullion went down
with her.
The divers liken the condition of
the wreck to a long street Of high
houses which have collapsed into the
center. The action Of the sea each
winter makes the following years
work Of the divers more difficult
The wreck lies at the extreme depth
at which diving is possible. The men
work below for "a quarter Of an hour
and 1t takes half an hour to bring
them to the surface, on account Of
the risk of heart failure through the
sudden change OF blood pressure. Only
two spells below per day are possible
for each man.

Light and Music. .

A machine designed TO accompany
music with harmonious lighting eff
fects has been invented by an east
eln artist, says Popular Mechanics
Magazine. The instrument is in the
form of rheostat consisting of con-
tinuous parallel loops of resistance
wire of different lengths, each having
a contact point over which passes a
metal block, completing the circuit.
The movement Of the block Is con-
troIled by cable running over pulleys
operated by means of pedals. As the
sliding block is moved back or forth
over the wires, the degree of light
intensity Is varied to suit the music
accentuating the musical phrasings Of
the soloist or orchestra. 1t may be
played either with or without a spe-
cial written score sheet. A further
adaptation of the principle of artistic
lighting expression through resist,
ance coils is the Illuminated phono-
graph. In this case a rheostat of
modified form Is used and the light
controlled by means of
cam. moving in synchronism with the
record. A translucent globe incases
the record, motor, rheostat and accom-
panying lights.

Taxation in Bulgaria

The peasants are now firmly estab-
lished in power In Bulgaria, and legis-
lative bodies, both state and provincial,
in which their representatives are in
the majority, are engaged In transfer
ring the burden of taxation to the
shoulders of the despised city folk.
The district council of Roustchouk
has evolved the following taxes, which
it styles American:
For carrying a parasol, so levas
(nominally worth 10 cents each)
yearly; for wearing skirts more than
eleven inches above the ground, or silk
stockings, 500 levas; for wearing
gloves between April Is and Septem-

A Rubber Bubble City.

Manaos, in Brazil, 800 miles up the
Amazon river, was a beautiful and
prosperous city ten years ago, with 8
gorgeous opera house and theaters
and all the attributes of real, live
European city. Today it is in ruin
Its people have fled and it's buildings
are tottering. How did this ruinous
decline come about? Simply through
detlation in the price of rubber. In
1911 the effects of rubber planting
in the Far East, Ceylon, Java, the
Straits Settlements, Malacca, Borneo,
began to be felt at Manaos. Wild rubber
took slump. This rubber brought in
from the jungle, would not fetch enough
to pay off the loans made by the mer-
chants to the rubber hunters. Bust.
ness houses failed by the dozens sui.
cides became common, trade fell off
little by little. Now it amounts to
nothing. There Is still a
little rubber coming out, but 1t is barely
worth its freight charges to this coun-
try or England.
