FAIR DATES ARE
AUGUST "A, 25, Is
COUNTY EXPOSITION TO BE HELD
EARLIER In ORDER NOT TO
CONFLICT WITH THE STATE
FAIR.

Intent on avoiding any conflict that
may prevent record crowds each day
that the st. Louis County Falr Is IN
session, the officials OF the fair aSSocl-
alton have SET the dates for August
"a, % and 26, a full week earlier tnan
cuStomarily held in previous years, ac-
cording to an announcement by Les
Emery secretary.
Shifting of the date forward one
week will avoid Labor Day, which
strangely enough has failed to encour-
age large crowds during the past three
years, and will also make it possible
for many persons to attend both the
local and state fairs. In previous years
the ST. Louis county and the state
fairs have been conducted on the same
dates or so close together that the
county fair has been less successful
than it otherwise might have been.
Four of the main entertainment at
fractions have already been scheduled
but will not be publicly announced un
til early in August, Mr.. Emery stated
Tentative arrangements are being made
to provide another form of entertain
ment that has been much in demand
since the new fairgrounds were opened,
but details will not be made public un
til the contract now being considered
is signed.
Thousands of copies of the annual
premium book of the 29th annual St.
Louis County Fair are now being dis
tributed,
The book, one of the best printed by
the fair association, will go out to an
farm clubs in the county, chamber OF
commerce organizations, market places,
individuals and All clubs.
Additional copies can be procured at
the Office of the secretary in the And
roy hotel, Hibbing
The premium book is complete
summary of what the fair offers this
year in premiums for various depart
mentS. 1t contains general informa-
ton on the fair, rules, entry require
mentS, and date on different phases
of the exposition.
Announcing the signing of all at
fractions, the fair management will
offer varied program for young and
old, both afternoon and evening.
There will be platform acts which will
be included in the list of real thrillers
and in addition the last day will see
the famous Sloan auto dare-devilS in
series of speed races, the first ever
offered on the new track
Plans for redecorating several of the
buildings at the fair grounds in ac-
cordance with novel plans adopted last
year, are now being made. This will
make the grounds among the most at
tractive in the northwest.

BILL TO EXTEND
|. BRANCH BANKS
INTRODUCED

Two bills designed TO alter
Federal banking laws TO cope
with changing conditions brought
about by the growth Of chain and
branch banking we're introduced
in the House yesterday after the
first meeting at this session Of
the Banking and Currency Com
rnittee.
Representative Beedy (R0. Me-.
sponsored q measure which would
authorize national banks to estab-
lish branches within the limits Of
the Federal Reserve districts In
which they are located.
It would also allow State banks
membership in the Federal Re
serve system regardless Of the
geographical area in which they
maintain branches.
Beedy said his purpose in intro
ducing the bill was to provide q
basis for investigation Of branch
and chain banking in order that,
Congress may determine what pol
icy to adopt in dealing with new
conditions.
Chairman McFadden of the
House Banking Committee, draft
ed the second measure, which
would transfer from the Federal
Reserve Board to the Comptroller
of the Currency the duty Of max
ing bank examinations and ex-
tend the scope Of these investiga.
tions. :
The present trend toward the
development of chain ownership.
group banking, branch banking
and holding company banking
McFadden said. demands the
highest type Of examinations pos
Sible." His bill would require
Federal Reserve banks to pay the
cost Of examinations.
The measure would also permit
fauther distribution Of the balance
Of net earnings Of the IL Federal
Reserve hanks to small stock.
holding member banks. The object
OF this provision, McFadden ex-
planned, is to make Federal Re
serve membership more attractive
to country banks.
These two measures, and an
other which Senator Glass CD,
Va, a member of the Senate
Banking Committee, Is preparing,
are expected to receive Jareful
consideration of CongreR at this
session. It Is generally admitted
! liberalization Of national banking
laws Is necessary If the national
banking system Is to retain con-
troll Of the country's financial
structure.
Federal receivers for national
banks would be authorized to
compromise individual liabilities
under a bill Of Senator George
CD, Of Georgia, passed by the
Senate yesterday.

TRADE BARRIER
REMOVAL AIDS
COMMERCE

Removal on January Of Inn
port and export restriction by 10
principal commercial nations Of
the world will prove a big factor
In the stimulation Of interna-
tional trade, Henry Chalmers,
chief Of the foreign tariffs divi-
sion Of the Commerce Depart
ment declared today.
United States. the chief export
ing nation which In 1929 sold
more that $4,000, ,000, 900 worth Of
goods abroad, will profit greatly
BY the removal Of these artificial
trade barriers.
Great Britain Included
In the list Of countries which
professionally agreed to end trade
restrutions were found many Of
the United States principal Gus
toners, including Great Britain,
Germany, France, Japan. Italy and
Belgium.
None of the Latin-American
countries nor those Of the Orient
excepting Japan, were signators
to the protocol signed in Paris
abolishing restrictions. Proposals
have been heard for inclusion Of
other commercial nations.
In q cablegram to the Com
merce Department. American
Commercial lAttache Charles 3.
Lyon, at Berne, explained that al
though the governments Of 10
countries have ratified the con-
vention, the provisional arrange.
ment was necessary because
Czechoslovakia and Poland, upon
whose ratification certain others
had made their contingent, have
not yet acted.
"Ths protocol is provisional in
that 1t permits any Of the coun-
tries to withdraw from the con-
vention by June 80 If the two
countries named have not rati-
fled by May 81, or they may waive
that right and continue the con-
vention indefinitely in operation, "
Lyon said.
Tariff Not Affected
"It is clearly understood that
the convention does not affect
the tariff systems or treaty-mak-
ing methods of any of the par
ticipating countries. Neither does
1t apply to certain definitely
recognized types of restrictions
maintained in many countries in
connection with public security,
for moral or humanitarian pur-
poses, in connection with the traf-
fic in arms, the protection of
public health and others. It does
not apply to prohibition"
Chalmers said it was generally
expected that the abolition OF
these restrictions, which devel-
Oped in many countries since the
war, will prove Of material ad-
vantage, by relieving their COM
merce from what has come to
be recognized as one of the worst
forms Of artificial trade barrier. /"
