ADVISERS MEETING
Regular Quarterly Session of Federal
Reserve Boards Advisory Council
Held Today.

Washington, Nov. 1s.-The federal
reserve boards advisory council be-
gan today its regular quarterly ses-
sion, at which the question of re-dis-
count rates is expected to be consid-
cred.
Reserve board members have been
studying the re-discount situation in
the various bank districts privately
and there is known to be some senti-
ment in the board for modification of
the present charges. How nearly the
sentiment has crystallized toward ac-
ton, however, has not been disclosed
nor are the board members aware of
the attitude of the advisory council
The rates have remained uniform at
Az per cent in all reserve districts
since last March but suggestions have
been made by some board members
that the uniformity has worked
hardship on business interests in GER
tain districts while giving others un-
due advantages.

Governor Is Indignant.
Governor Templeton in an address
at Waterbury yesterday said the med

tied up" In an interview. Governor
Templeton added that if conditions
warranted he would be willing to call
a special session of the general as
sembly to change the laws relating to
examinations and registration in
medicine and to curb the Connecticut
eclectic medical society, the board of
which he declared seemed to be self
perpetuating under the present laws.
Executive action, he said, would de-
pend upon action of the grand jury.
Indirectly the present situation was
brought about by controversies in the
general assembly when several ply
sicians who had been licensed by the
eclectic board sought to have irregu-
larities over their licenses healed. ="
In opposition. A bill was passed to
provide a remedy but the governor
would not sign it. The eclectics
charged that other schools of medi-
cine were in opposition.
In the session also the eclectics had
been active in opposing various public
health bills and had tried to obtain
repeal of compulsory vaccination
laws. They had against them the state
health department and many physi-
clans of other schools of medicine.
The scope of the investigation by a
grand jury is expected to be broad.
Governor Templeton has asked Mr..
Alcorn to inquire into the authenticity
of foreign medical school diplomas
upon which many foreign born physi-
clans now in the state have been ad-
mitted to practice, in addition to a
general scrutiny of diplomas OF prac-
titioners in various branches of the
profession.

MELONS TAX Plan
Meets With FAVOR
Coolidge Also Is Understood to Be
FaVOrably Impressed

Washington, Nov. 19.-President
Coolidge is strongly inclined toward
the Mellon tax reduction program and
is expected by some of his advisers
to endorse it flatly in his message to
congress.
Such an endorsement, in the
opinion of administration officials
; would be sufficient to sweep aside
such opposition as there has been
among some republican leaders to a
tax revision at the comingw session
With the gathering here of SEN
ators and representatives of the
majority party, taxation has become
one of the principal subjects of
cloak room discussion. Although some
of the leaders still insist that to open
up the tax schedules would invite
endless controversy and lead nowhere.
most of them appear to believe that
legislative consideration of the Mellon
and other reduction proposals is GER
tain.
Since announcements of Mr.. Mel
Ions plan to cut the nations tax bur-
den. 1868, 900. 900. President Coolidge
has been carefully watching the re-
action of the country. The president
has read much editorial comment and
has received a large number of letters

A large portion of the over-Sunday
mail of about 1000 letters received
at the White House had to do with
the tax question.

REALLY ARE "Go0Dp INDIANS
Stories of the Ojibways Held to Prove
That Old GIBBS ought to Be
Revised.

The old gibe that "the only good In
dian is a dead Indian is dlsproved by
more than one fact. Government pub
lications, for instance, declare that the
Semlnoles are good Indians" Ere
quently in troubled times on the from
tier friendly Indians warned settlers
of impending trouble or sheltered them
until the emergency passed, writes
Alice L. Pearson in the Christian Her
aid.
Many stories Of the Ojibways show
that numerous individuals deserved TO
be classed as good The following
incident in the experience Of d gov
eminent surveyor suggests that good
ness" is not the exclusive possession
of the white man. While the sur
veying party was in the field one Of
the chainmen became Ill. 1t became
necessary to send to a neighbOring In
dian agency for some one who could
speak English to take the place OF the
sick man. After working a few days,
the young Indian who was chosen for
this purpose went to his employer and
asked for release. The surveyor, re-
luctant to give up q competent and
much-needed helper. questioned him as
to the reason for going. His answer
might give food for thought to many
who would regard themselves as his
superiors. 81 must go back to my
own people," he said. your young
men use bad oaths, and if stay here
l may learn them. There is not an
oath in the Ojibway language"
The surveyor called his young men
together and told them the story. The
appeal was not lost upon them. They
had erred, as do so many boys, rather
through thoughtlessness than purpose.
The result was that profanity was al
most completely broken up in that
camp, and the Indian continued at his
work.
