BACKS LAW TO AID |
NATIONAL BANKS
Seay Urges Support of Me-
Fadden Bill at ParIey of
District Bankers.
BY CHAS. SHAEFFER.
STAFF Correspondent Of The Star.

HOT SPRINGS, Va, June 26-
George ]. Seay, governor of the Fed
eral Reserve Bank of Richmond, was
the principal speaker at the second
session Of the District Bankers con-
vention here today, presided over by
Francis G. Addison, jr., first vice
president.
Gov. seay launched into discussion
of the McFadden bill, the object
of which is to grant to national
banks certain privileges which have
been given by different States to
banking institutions chartered, under
their laws. thus placing banks upon
an equality before the law.
Declaring that national institutions
are entitled without undue delay to
have equal privileges with State
speaker urged a more energetic fight
on the part Of its members to insure
the continued existence of the ma
tional banking system.
Opposes Branch Measure.
The Governor suggested that every
possible influence be used to eliminate
the ranch banking feature of the bill,
the bone of contention in the last ses.
sion of Congress. He offered the sug
gestion that this feature be incorpo-
rated in a separate measure, so that
the remainder of the bill, on which
legislatures have agreed, could as
speedily as possible find it's way on
the statutes.
If separate branch banking meas
ure was enacted, the speaker pointed
out, the batteries of both sides could
oe ieveled against it, and the likeli
hood of reaching a satisfactory result
would be less remote. But the first
consideration of national bankers, he
warned, should be the safeguarding
of banking rather than competition
with State banks in liberality of
lending.
Provision Is Hit.
The governor did not express ac.
cord with every provision of the Nc
Fadden bill, however. Its provisions
TO exclude from entrance into the
Federal reserve system any State
banking institution which might estab-
iish branches after passage of the
bill under its own State laws, unless
lished outside of its home city, was
scored as a proposal of farreaching
evil on the ground that it would
exercise a repressive influence upon
State Legislatures with reference to
the enactment of branch banking
legislation.
The proposed amendment to the
Federal reserve act to permit member
banks TO hold 40 per cent of their
required reserves would, in effect, if
passed, he said, reduce reserve re-
quirements, not only of country banks,
but of all other member banks, to
the extent of about half billion dol
!ars. inevitably resulting in a very

Gold Not Idle.
The gold supply of the country sup
ports a tremendous fabric Of bank
credit and currency, Gov. Seay assert
ed. in refuting allegations that a con-
siderable part of 1t Is idle and unsup-
porting. He pointed out that the ratio
which our present gold supply bears
to deposit liabilities of our banks and
the volume of currency in circulation
Is but little greater than that which
the supply of gold in 1914 bore to the
bank liabilities and currency then out
standing. In 1914. he said, the gold in
the country amounted to 81 $3.50, ,00o.-
900, when the total gross deposits of
all banks and the total stock of money
in the country together amounted to
$25, ,066, 900 900, the ratio of gold to
these liabilities being then 7.54. In
1924 June 80 of each year being used
as the date), the aggregate of the
gross deposits of all banking institu-
was $50, ,446 ,000.0 900, and back Of it the
gold supply was $4.490 900, 900, equal
to about 1855.
IF you eliminate that portion of
the currency based upon silver" he
said, upon the assumption that 1t
stands upon its own bottom (which
is not quite the facO, then the ratio
in 1914 would have been III, against
sos in 1924. Judge for yourselves
whether under exitsing credit condi-
tions we have any excess of gold and
pass judgment upon a proposal which
would certainly have the effect of
further expanding credit and at the
same time would deliberately seek to
diminish the credit power Of the re-
serve system, which alone could
equally cope with the situation arising
from the loss of any great amount of
gold"

resented dead timber"
Mr.. Burnside said the chapter is
seriously considering acquisition of
paid secretary and affiliation with
Washington university. in order that
the full educational benefits might be
derived through the medium Of a more
businesslike basis, with regular Of
fice hours, more complete records and

Freaks Of Nature
Parasol Ants.

The Sauba, or parasol ants are
the most destructive insects found
in the tropical forests of South
America. These ants travel IN
swarrns, and in short period Of
time can strip trees and plants Of
every vestige Of foliage. With
their sharp, strong jaws they cut
large circular pieces out Of the
leaves and let them fall 10 the
ground, where they are picked up
and carried away by the "ground
workers. The pieces Of foliage
are carried into the forests where
the nest Of the colony is situated.
Some Of the ants then return 70
the trees to carry another load back
while others stay in the nest and
store the food away for the future
Use Of the colony.

Mixes Business With Art.

Many persons think a man cannot
successfully mix business and art,
unless perhaps, the two of them are
connected in some way. But this is
not true.

in Philadelphia who runs a great
department store. And in Baltimore
there is another who has made much
money in the real estate business.
II you had met this man when be
was a youngster, a student at
Johns Hopkins University in Balti-
more, and had occasion to note his
passion for music, you never would
haze though of his going into real
estate. Still less would you have
thought 50 had you met him when
he was studying music later in Lon
don, in Florence and in Munich.
Yet when he came back to Balti-
more be went into real estate bust
ness. He loved his music, but he
figured real estate offered him more
comforts. 50 be made music his

APPENDICITIS SYMPTOMS
BY ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. D.
United States Senator From New York
Former Commissioner Of Health, New York City.

When / was a medical student
we used to observe that cases, even
surgical cases ran in Strings" We
would have a lot Of broken arms
and then a series Of broken skulls.
There would be number Of gall
bladder cases and then a lot Of ap-
pendicitis.
There was a time when appendi-
citis seemed almost epidemic. What
has become of it?
In order to get this disease it is
necessary to have lowered resistance
from some cause or other, and then
to have floating about in the system
one OF the pus producing germs.
Undoubtedly We are learning now
to avoid lowered resistance. We are
finding out that the simple hygiene
mensures-fresh air, sunlight, plen-
ty of sleep, good food and exercise
are making US stronger, more Wig
orous. and more resistant to disease.
Likewise, we have been forced to
believe that pus centers are danger
Gus. No longer is n running rlr"
regarded as a harmless thing per-
mitted to exist through n decade.
No longer are diseased tonsils, pussy
gums or Assessed teeth. "out-
grown"
Very wisely we are giving an en-
orgetic attention to what used to
be regarded as thrilling things. Ex-
pcrience and more advanced knowl-
edge have taught us that We cannot
afford to disregard enervating condi-
tons and pus propagation.
But we continue to have occasion
al cases Of Appendicitis. We can
not expect TO be 100 per cent per-
feet in our preventive measures.
Is pain in the abdomen a sure
sign Of this disease? OF course not.
Many a painful abdomen Is nothing
more than a sign of Indigestion.
But well defined and localized pain

Lies Hurdle
Worry Destroys Beauty.
By L. E. Bisch

W oyS ehys
In the Journal of Marie Bash
kirtsoff," one of the most famous
of autobiographies, we find this no
tation, written in 1874:
"Let anyone put me in a bad
humor, let me be dissatisfied with
anything. let me be tired-and
adieu to my beauty! 1t is only when
l am happy and tranquil that 1 am
charming"
And that is about the truth of it
with reference TO all women.
Beauty can be attained and re-
tanned only at price and that
price is good health.
Besides, good health in this sense
means more than physical health.
1t means mental health as well.
II the mind is not content, IL it
is confused, harassed, worried
beauty cannot long survive.
Worry undoubtedly undermines
beauty
Beauty is, Of course, something
more than prettiness. Prettiness is
regularity and symmetry of fea-
lures.
A person can be beautiful and
yet be homely 30 far as comeliness
Of physiognomy goes.
II you would be beautiful-and
this applies to the masculine gender
as well as the feminine-banish
worry.
How? BY removing the causes
for the worry.
That is easier to say than do,
perhaps, yet it is surprising how
much worry can be eliminated il
We study the problem a little.
In the first place many persons
get into a chronic state Of worry.
They have been worrying so long
that they just keep on worrying
even when circumstances do not
warrant it.
In the second place, most OF our
worry is simply a state Of confess
sion.
We worry because we do not see
our way clearly ahead. We do not
see how we can get around the
problem.
Most Of our worry is Of that type
and most OF it can be eliminated by
analysing the situation carefully and
clear-headedly.

cheerful and humorous and cour-
ageous and persistent.
Their bodily faculties had burned
away, but left these qualities Of the
soul enduring.
Indeed it is worth while TO ask
yourself whether the soul or the
body gives way fist. This was
perhaps in the mind of Christ when
He asked: "What should It profit
a man if he gain the whole world
and lose his own soul?-
One may lose a finger or an arm
or an eye or an ear, and still re-
tain his integrity of soul. And
there are those with their bodies
intact, Who are physically perfect,
but whose souls have been buried
away.
The true endurance OF man rs
found in his spirit.
There also is the true source Of
his cheer and courage and humor.
For this reason we say that a
man is a soul, he Is a spirit, while
we say that he has a body. His
soul is essentially "he." His body
is something that he possesses.
In the heat of conflict and OPP
position, his body may be destroy.
ed, but the soul lives on uncon-
quered and unconquerable.

Certain automatic sprinklers are
made with parts of soft and easily
melted metal. II there is any heat
this metal melts first and converts
the pipe into a sprinkler.
1t is not designed to carry the
analogy too far in this case, nor
to refer to the human being as a
sprinkling device: but in the light
of these machines it is well to ask
ourselves what part Of us is the
softest and gives way most easily.
There are some man who want
to win prizes, who value money
and fame and position; yet they
can easily give up these things il
they can maintain their character
without them.
There are others in whom the
qualities Of ambition and the de-
sire for possessions and fame and
success are hard metal. They last
the longest and by the refusal to
give way often the whole structure
is imperiled.
Those parts Of US that should be
able to withstand the heat and en-
dure permanency are cheer. sense
Of humor, courage and endurance.
Many a man has lost his posses
sions or his place in the world and
yet managed to maintain these
more valuable qualities.
I have seen blind men who are
