POSTAL SANK CHECK
PLAN STILL STUDIED
Dill Proposal Has Not Been
Dropped.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE
plan of Senator c. G. Dill CDem.,
WashD to permit checking on postal
savings banks has not been aban-
doned, although it was not included
in the first emergency banking pro-
gram of President Franklin D.
Roosevelt.
The administrator may adopt the
Dill suggestion if it discovers that
in spite of the new legislation some
cities are deprived of banking ia
cilities.
Treasury Secretary Woodin, it was
understood, still is studying the
plan.
Senator Dill has enlisted for his
proposal the support of Senator
Kenneth Mcclellan Dem, Tenn
who is the new chairman of the
senate committee on postofT1ces and
post roads.
The Tennesseean said he was
prepared at any time to call his
committee together to consider the
proposal He also believes some
such arrangement will be necessary
to provide checking facilities in
small towns particularly that are
now without banks.

ROAD CHIEFS TOLL TO
BALK BID COLLISION
Present Program to Be Abandoned
Entirely, Is Warning.

State highway commissioners to-
day developed a plan to reduce
cement prices and keep bids from
being alike when they ale received
March %.
The plan is to abandon entirely
the present program of the state
purchasing 100000 barrels of ce-
ment and permit each contractor to
provide his own cement.
The new commission threw out
identical bids received by former
commissioners, which were about
double the mill price of a year ago
In the readvertising they required
af1davits be filed that bids are nom
collusive and bond be posted.
If this fails to change the former
setup, the commissioners will not
buy any cement, but provide speci-
fications, already drawn, to the con-
tractors, Commissioner Evans Stots-
enberg said today.

Gold Talks
Marine Generals Widow
Sponsors Move to
Help Treasury.

BIZ United Press
XXTASHINGTON, March 10.
w Hoping to start a patri-
otto return of gold to the treas
ury, Mrs. Robert H. Dunlap,
widow of a marine corps general,
has turned in to the treasury gold
coins which she received as a
Christmas gift.
Il remember that in England in
1881 everybody turned in all their
gold, even their wedding rings"
Mrs. Dunlap said.
Il do hope that others may fol-
low this example. Surely we are
as patriotic as the English, and
there is a lot Of difference be-
tween giving up just d coin and
giving up a ring or jewelry."

agree on currency sterilization and
international exchange.
world commerce never can get
started in anything like orderly or
dependable fashion until world cur
rencies are stabilized and interna-
tional exchange values fixed.
To-day, first one country then an
other gains a momentary advantage
in trade over its rivals because of
fall in value of its currency. But
such advantages never last.
Currency Stability Needed
Should the American dollar
shrink on the international eX-
change, it almost would certainly
help our trade in the same man
ner that similar phenomena have
helped the trade of Great Britain,
France and other countries.
But permanently sound world
commerce requires currency stability
at least in the major nations.
Money can not be dear in one coun-
try and cheap in another for time,
then reverse, if we desire prosperous
world conditions.
War debt discussions, in my
judgment, should wait. They can
not be discussed prof1tably prior to
world monetary and economic
conference. Once international eX-
change ceases to f1uctuate as now,
and world trade once more is set in
motion, Europe and the United
States will find it easier to solve the
debt problem.
There is talk of gold redistribu-
ton as a means of stopping the
sudden flight of gold, first from one
country then another. Some pro-
pose placing most of the worlds
gold supply in the Bank for Inter
national Settlements at Basic.
Doubts Value of Idea
IT doubt any such arbitrary
scheme is practicable. If the great
commercial powers of the world will
meet and evolve some sane plan for
currency and exchange, and start
trade flowing in normal channels
again, I don't believe the gold prob
lem will bother us very much. 1t will
tend to solve itself.
Il believe Senator Key Pittman'S
plan for the United States to buy
silver at the market price and issue
currency to the amount thus &C
quired, would help us and the world.
1t would increase the price of silver
and boost the purchasing power of
a billion people in silver using
countries.
ITO make it really effective, how
ever, we must have the co-opera-
ton of Great Britain and other key
powers. This is another problem
for the world conference.
"One after another, all the great
nations have had or are going
through a crisis similar to ours.
Such crises abroad have hurt us and
our crisis may react unfavorably on
other countries.
For the good of all concerned,
therefore, the nations should meet
in conference and try to iron out
! their common difficulties"

sity of meeting great rounding
operations this spring"
The President said that the fin
ances Of the government require
courageous, frank and prompt &C
ton" just as surely as the banking
crisis for which sweeping legislation
was enacted at his request Thurs
day.
The Presidents message said the
deficit for the fiscal year 1881 was
S462, 100000 and for 1892 had in
creased to S2472,OOOO 1000.
For the fiscal year 1888 it prob
ably will exceed 81 100000" he
said.
Thus we shall have piled up an
accumulated deficit Of IS 900 900 900.
Points Definite Road
Regarding the legislation which
he is proposing to deal with the
situation, Mr.. Roosevelt said:
I am not speaking to you in gen.
eral terms. am pointing out a
definite road
The last congress enacted legis-
lation relating to the reorganization
and elimination of executive agen-
cies, but the economies thus to be
effected are small when viewed in
the light of the great deficit for the
next fiscal year.
They will not meet the pressing
needs Of our credit situation. Pro-
vision for additional savings is es-
sential, and therefore I am asking
congress today for new legislation
laying down broad principles for the
granting Of pensions and other vet
eran benefits, and giving to. the eX-
ecutive the authority to prescribe
the administrative details.
Duty Is Upheld
I'VE are unanimous in uphold
ing the duty Of the government to
care for those who suffer in its
defense and for their widows and
orphans. The application, however,
of this great principle to large num-
bers of people involves complica-
tions-so great that it is almost im-
possible to draw legislation with
sufficient flexibility to provide sub
stantial justice in varying situa-
tons
The proposed legislation states
the principles and, limited by them,
permits the executive to draw the
lines Of differentiation necessary to
justice.
In accord with the same pur-
pose of substantial justice, I re-
quest also the enactment of legisla-
ton relating to the salaries Of civil
and military employees of the gov
eminent.
This would repeal the existing
furlough plan, substituting there
fore a general principle and author
izing the executive to make appli-
cation of this principle.
Stability Is at Stake
THE proper legislative function
is to fix the amount of expenditure,
the means ~ which it is TO be
raised and the general principles
under which the expenditures are
to be made. :"
Mr.. Roosevelt said that the
economics he proposed will affect
some of our citizens; bit the fail
ure to make them will affect all of
our citizens"
The very stability of our gov
eminent itself is concerned and
when that is concerned the benefits
of some must be subordinated to
the needs of all"

This system of exchange Of credit,

Several firms were adopting ..
policy Of issuing eight or ten pay
roll checks in small denominations
to employees, in place of the usual

employees to exchange the smaller
checks for merchandise.

were adopting measures for &C
ceptlng the merchandising orders.
The Polk Milk Company, how

money in circulation to warrant

freight shipments.
