Melons Policy.

The Federal Reserve Board is not
unanimous In opinion In respect of
the advisability Of effecting. a change
in the redisoount rates at Federal
Reserve Banks. The reserve ratio
remains high ana as yet, there
seems to be no congestion in the
movement Of commodities to market
which would be likely to result in
frozen credits.
One Of the principal elements to
be considered, in connection with
the boards action Is the Treasury
policy. Secretary Mellon, chairman
OF the board, has q good deal of
Treasury financing to, do between
now and the end of the year. He
would undoubtedly oppose an in
crease In the rediscount rate which
would necessitate payment of. a
higher rate on Treasury borrow
inkh. -

LAST OF QUEENS ESTATE
GOES TO HONOLULU MUSEUM
Priceless Relics, Crown Jewels. Silver
ware and Decorations
Among Collection

Honolulu, July 9.--The Bishop mu-
scum here will be the sole beneficiary
of the remaining estate of the late
Queen Liliuokalani, consisting now in
the main of priceless relics, crown
jewels, crests, silverware, decorations,
and insignia of royalty, according to
the trustees.
Queen Liliuokalani, last of the
reigning monarchs of Hawaii, died in
1917. Four suits have been filed to
break her will. the last having been
withdrawn within the past month.
Most of the persons to whom she
made requests, including John Aim
oku Dominis and Joseph Aea, her
wards, and Prince Jonah Kuhio Ka-
lanianaole, have died, and the articles
bequeathed to them will be turned
over to the Bishop museum. 1t will be
six months before the estate can be
distributed, according to the executor,
Colonel C. p. Iaukea, who was cham
berlain to the queen.
The estate was valued at approx
mately $780, at her death, but many
Of her possessions, including Washing
ton Place, her residence, have been
sold and the proceeds placed in the
Iiliuokalani trust. The income from
this trust goes toward the support of
schools and hospitals. Washington
place is now the official residence of
the governor of the territory.
