Drys Jubilant
at Defeat of
Bingham Bill

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3D. Pro-
hibitionistS announced today that
they still hold Capitol Hill.
The SIS to IS senate defeat Thurs
day of the Bingham referendum
resolution was acclaimed by Senator
Sheppard (Dem., Tex.), author of
the eighteenth amendment, as proof
of dry numerical superiority in con-
greSs.
1T was a test case" Sheppard
told the United Press. After the
usual debate, the vote showed the
usual overwhelming dry majority.
1t showed majority of almost 4
to 1. Other tests will show the same
result"
VETS were not inclined to agree
with Sheppard. They were sorry
that the first prohibition vote of
the session had to come on the
Bingham resolution. At heart many
vets were not in favor of it because
of its unusual nature. It proposed
to inform the states that the senate
would welcome any action on their
part looking toward state referen-
durnS.

Sterilization in the twenty billion
dollar rail industry will be effected
today or Saturday, leaders of cap
ital and labor in conference here
expected today.
David B. Robertson, general
chairman of the railway labor ex-
ecutives' association, denied, however,
reports that an agreement actually
had been reached. He said such
rumors we're purely speculative.
There is absolutely no basis for
the report in today's press that an
agreement to accept the 10 per cent
wage reduction has been reached, .
he declared.
ut is obviously case Of a guess
without any foundation. We have
not accepted the wage reduction to

Representatives of 1900 900 union
workers and 30 class A railroads
expressed confidence that harmony
had been reached.

made barnkrupts before the end?''
Resolutions adopted demanded:
Rigid economy in government, a
halt in the work of perfecting a
waterways systems because of dam
age to railroads, no further federal
marketing acts and interference
with grain futures. Governor Harry
G. Leslie was commended for refus-
ing to call a special session of the

AURORA CALLS
BUSINESS HALT
Step Taken to ForestaII Run
on Banks.
3u United Press

By United Press
AURORA, Ill, Jan. pa FIVE
day moratorium on business and
manufacturing was proclaimed by
Mayor Conrad N. Bjorseth today,
although Aurora has weathered the
financial crisis in the Chicago
metropolitan area without a bank
failure or run.
Mayor Bjorseth issued the proc
lamation after conferences with
bankers and business leaders which
started Thursday night and lasted
until 3 a. m. today.
The city's leaders, agreed to the
plan, praising it as a means of
stabilizing business conditions. In
the vicinity of Aurora, two banks in
Joliet, one in Elgin and several in
other communities have closed re-
Gently.
ALI manufacturing plants will
shut down. the city's five banks will
close their doors and among bust
ness houses, only newspapers, pub
lie utilities and food stores will re-
main open.
The suspension will be effective
for five days, under MayoE
BjorSeth's plan. When a similar in
novation was ordered at Urbana
after bank failures, business was
ordered resumed before the FIVE
day period expired.
Business leaders will take advan-
tage of the breathing spell to send
teams of men throughout the COM
munity, urging bank depositorS to
leave their savings untouched, and
to deposit boarded money.

AGREEMENT NEAR
ON RAIL PAY CUT

promised on behalf Of the commit
tee of nine rail executives that the
roads accepted in good faith" the
union request for stabilized work.
Chairmen of twenty-one major
unions Immediately conferred with
800 colleagues representing minor
labor organizations, to determine if
this pledge fulfilled their demand
Willard explained the executives
did not believe it possible to guaran-
tee employment at the 1880 level
throughout the industry, because Of
vastly changed conditions. He point
ed out, however, that impetus of a
10 per cent wage reduction would
go far toward restoring employment
to normal.
The reduction is imperative if
many of the roads are to avoid
bankruptcy and prevent interest de-
faults affecting S50,0OO.0OO life in
surance holders and 100000 bank
depoSitorS, Willard declared.
On several points the executives
and labor chiefs have agreed to
disagree" These include the billion
dollar grade crossing elimination
bond issue and the question of rail
consultations anH coordination Of
train crews and lengths.

DEPOSITORS IN
CLOSED BANKS
Sweeping ReviSionS in Laws
Provided in Measure
Offered by Glass.
LIMITS STOCKS DEALING
Liquidating Corporation Is
Set Up Inside Federal
Reserve System.
BY LYLE G WILSON
United Press Stag Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-Relief
for depoSitorS in closed banks, and
sharp restriction on leakage of fed
eral reserve credit into stock specu-
lation are provided in a bill intro
duced by Senator Glass Dem., Va.
The banking and currency COM
mittee discussed the bill briefly to-
day and decided to give the measure
precedence over all other commit
tee matters. Hearings will be re-
Sumed Monday and senators ex-
pressed the opinion the bill would
be reported to the senate next week.
Glass proposes sweeping revision
of the banking laws to provide
safer and more effective use" of
federal reserve and national bank
assets. The bill would appropriate
5000, 100000 from the treasury to aid
depositorS in closed anbks.
Also Temporary Relief
A liquidating corporation would
provide permanent machinery to
aid depoSitors in closed banks of
the federal reserve system, and i'm
mediately temporary relief for nom
members. Member banks would be
limited strictly in lending for stock
market operations.
National banks would be author
lied to engage in statewide branch
banking in states which permit such
operation. But branches outside
banks home city would be limited
to parent banks with 81 900, 900 capt.
tai stock.
Security aff1liates of banks would
be subjected to strict examination
and some supervision, and bank
could lend to such an affiliate not
more than 10 per cent of it's capital
and surplus.
Requirements for operation Of
group or chain banks are estab-
lished, including provision for ex-
animation. Groups and chains
would be required to rid themselves
of stock or bond issuing units, and
holding corporations of chains
would be obliged to establish funds
with which to meet the double liza
bility of stockholders in the event
of failure.
Create Market Group
The bill would create an "open
market committee" to supervise
such federal reserve operations. All
future foreign business of federal
reserve banks would be subject to
prior approval of the federal re-
serve board.
Many existing restrictions on ma
tional bank operations would be re-
moved by the bill and the national
institutions would be enabled to
perform practically all banking OPP
erations now performed by state
banks. In addition, national banks
would be enabled to charge dis
count rates equal to state rates, or
2 per cent above the federal re-
serve rate in order at all times to
make discounting profitable.
The liquidating corporation for
closed banks is set up inside the
federal reserve system. Member
banks would receive 80 per cent of
its profits, and the remainder would
accrue to the revolving fund, to
which the banks would be required
to subscribe.

GOOD THINGS FOR THE TABLE

GOOD THINGS FOR THE TABLE
A DAINTY dessert and one easy to
prepare is always popular with
all housewives. Here is one:
MarshmaIIow Dessert.-Cut into

and shredded almonds, cover with
cupful of whipped cream and at serv-
ing time serve in sherbet glasses
topped with shredded pineapple.
Graham Cracker Date Tort.-Roll
twenty-four graham crackers until
fine with rolling pin. Pour over the
crumbs four large tablespoonfuls of
butter melted Prepare the following
custard: Mix one cupful of sugar
with one-half cupful of cornstarch,
blend we'll, add little salt and one
quart of rich milk cook until thick.
Beat four egg yolks until light, add q
little of the milk mixture and pour
into the saucepan; cook until the Gus
tard is thick and smooth. Beat the
egg whites until stiff, fold in gradual
ly one-fourth of cupful of sugar.
Cut up one package of dates into fine
