NEED FOR UNIFORMITY
IN BUSINESS LAWS
How Collection of lust Debts May
Be Prevented by Differing
State Statutes.

An effort to bring about better CO
ordination and greater uniformity
among state laws dealing with bust
ness and banking is being made by
the American Bankers Association.
It is pointed out that, although the
country is a unit commercially, and
citizens Of any one state may do bust
ness that reaches all over the coun-
try, most laws governing business
transactions are made by the diner'
emit states, with application limited
to their own local jurisdictions and
often in conflict with laws in other
states. It Is held that state laws
should be uniform 80 that the same
transaction. will not be subject to
different sets of rules according as
state laws differ.
To illustrate the disadvantages Of
conflicting laws, the following illus
tration Is given: Mr.. Jones lives In
lions outlaws q note In six years. He
falls into the error Of assuming that
the same rule prevails everywhere.
He visits Maryland and loans $1,000
to his friend, Mr.. Smith, taking
promissory note. As the note carries
interest Mr.. Jones is in no hurry for
his money and he believes Smith to
be financially responsible. Finally at
he ~
he has loaned Smith the money long
enough and seeks to collect the note
from him. But Smith can deny liabil-
ity and point to the statute Of Mary
land which Jones IL surprised to
learn outlaws q note after three
years..
Changes Recommended
The particular subjects Of legisla-
ton recommended BY tho association
for enactment by State legislatures
during 1928 include uniform acts on
negotiable instruments, bills Of lad
ing, warehouse receipts. stock trans
fer, and dduciaries.
Under the head Of laws for better
protection Of banks in particular |
are proposed measures
lealing with limiting liability on Ger
lied check; instruments based on |
gambling or usurious consideration;
line limit on stop payment; payment
II stale check; adverse claim to bank
deposit; payment of forged or raised
heck; deposits in two names; de-
'osits in trust; competency of bank
nd corporation notartes; non-pay-
nent Of check through error; Satur.
ay afternoon bank transactions, and
check direct to payor.
Under the Federal Reserve and
oreign banking are recommended
AVIS on membership of state institu- {,
ions in Federal Reserve System, and
oreign banking. Penal laws pro-
'osed deal with false statements for
redit; Islander and libel of bank; l
hecks or drafts without funds, and
urglary with explosives

WHEN AN EXPERIENCED DEM
lONSTRATOR for the electric cleaner
goes to work on rugs and carpets, he
is usually able to tell at glance what
weave, texture and make they are. It
is therefore apparent that II he knows
so much about rug manufacture, he
must know every angle pertaining 70
their care and cleaning. No one knows
floor coverings better than an exper-
fenced electric cleaner salesman. Fur
thermore, the construction of the aD-
pliance he handles must be decided on
after study has been made of the
carpets and rugs which they are de-
signed to clean and preserve.

How Better Than Pills?

The. question has been asked-Iu
what way are Chamberlain Tablets
superior to the ordinary cathartic
and liver pills? Our answer is,
they are easier and more pleasant
to take and their effect is so gentle
that one hardly realizes that it is
produced by medicine. Then, they
not only move the bowels but inn
prove the appetite and strengthen
the digestion.

Colora, Md, Sept. %, 1928.
Once Adam woke from dreamless
Or pleasant dreams, who knows?
But peaceful, sure, or light or deep,
For angels guarded his repose.
And quiet, too, for. there as yet
Existed none else human,
A quiet brief, for while he slept
His rib was made a woman.
He woke to gaze with dazed surprise
Upon a wondrous vision;
And bettered by revision.
And mixed and strange the surging
tide
Of feelings that came DER him.
With sense Of loss he sure had gained
The beautious one before him.
Twas gain in loss. The paradox
His sons have settled never;
He found himself with one rib less,
Yet more a man than ever;
And happier be than all his sons
Who traffic in that mart;
For what he purchased with a rib,
They have to pay heart.
And still his paradox was she,
Alternate crown and cross;
He found at first his loss a gain,
And then his gain a loss.
For wild the earth and desolate
Where'er his steps might roam;
And not till woman came it bloomed
His beautious Eden home.
Yet she, fair sharer of his bliss,
Bv serpent arts beguiled,
Changed the sweet bowers Elysium
To desolation wild.
All! did man without wife to guide
His erring footsteps thither,
Fer find a paradise?
Or fail to lose it with her?
When Adam found ESQ Milton saws
And he, you know, discloses
More in detail the whole affair,
And most as true as Moses),
When Adam found what Eve had
done,
And knew the sad disaster,
Ihe question rose to stay alone,
Or eat and follow after.
HIS choice a dread dilen1na,s horns
Each threatening to impale him,
And whatsoever he chose, quite sure
1t nothing could avail him.
1t he refused and stayed alone
1t Eden were no more;
And if he ate and followed her.
His Eden life we're DER.
Not long delayed he, though he held
I In, fate of all things human,
When choice twixt wife and Eden
stood,
lie quickly choae the woman.
And wasn't he right ask and own
The paradox consuming:
Iwasn't Paradise till she canoo
She ruined it by coming.
Just so, full many a SON of his
IL mas deemed his garden patch.
W Wolie like another Eden bloom
With her beneath his thatch;~
ana many a one whom she hath led
from Paradise. not thither,
aas said who'd live without wife
0ne can but just live with her"
Dut ever since that solid sleep.
When that one rib went out.
M MANS had q certain weakness on
mat vacant side, no doubt.
And as we always cherish most
Wnat's been loved and lost.
Regardless of the cost. ~
