September Report

The Reconstruction Finance
Corporation today reported to
the Clerk of the House that
it made loans aggregating
$139, ,S46,002.72 during Septem-
ber.
This represents a decrease of
SAT, 100000 from the total ad-
vanced to banks, states and for
other purposes during the month
of August, thus bearing out state
ments of corporation directors
that pressure for loans has been
Subsiding.
Another note of optimism was
found in showing that many
banks and other institutions can
celled applications for loans which
had been previously authorized.
The loans were classified as fol
lows:
Banks and similar institutions
and agricultural credit corpora

691 loans and increases on previ.

To states and cities for relief

Columbia Head, Ardent Wet,
Says "MoraI Repeal" Is
Already in Effect
BY MARGARET LANE
Copyright, 1882, by International
News Service)

NEW YORK, Oct. % (I.N.S.).
That dramatic prophecy re-
Gently made by John N. Gar
ner, the Democratic candidate
for Vice President - that the
country will have light wines
and beers by March 4, 1888
cuts no ice with DR.. Nicholas
Murray Butler.
The president of Columbia Uni
versity and pioneer leader Of the
Republican vets hopes it will not
come true. He said:
CALLS REPEAL VITAL
"Real repeal-and by that 1
mean Out-and-Out repeal, with
no qualifications and half mea-
sures-is so absolutely vital to
the health and recovery of this
country that the introduction Of
light wines and beers could do
no good at all beyond bringing
in a little revenue.
"AIsO, it would solve none of
the problems of prohibition.
The boOtIegger would flourish
as before, with the hard liquor
traffic still in his hands. Be-
sides, America is not a wine
drinking country, and the law
Iessness of the real liquor traf-
fic would be unabated."
Has Fought for Decade
DR.. Butler, who battled tol
repeal 10 years ago, under a
bitter fire of contempt and
abuse, has found the struggle
longer and harder than he ex
pected in those days, but now he
is convinced the day Of victory
is near. He said:
'MOraI repeal has already
taken place, why postpone the
actuaIity, or put it off by
substitutes? BY moral repeal
/ mean that the Eighteenth
Amendment is no longer taken
seriously by the majority of
the people; its enforcement is
a farce; convictions are
abSurdly few.
"The truth is that nobody
cares about it any longer, and
if a whole country openly
breaks a law, what good is it?
The drys in this country have
shrunk amazingly in the last
10 years, because prohibition
has taught them lesson.
When prohibition came into
force they were a considerable
power in the United States.
Now they are not worth bother
ing about"
