'CARPETBAG' Jobs
HERE |RK SENATOR
Vandenberg Warns Against
Effort to Make Outsiders
D. C. Heads.

Reports that persons from outside of
Washington have been mentioned as
being considered for the Office of Dis
trict Commissioner led Senator Vanden-
berg. Republican, of Michigan to de-
nounce in the Senate today any effort
at what he termed "carpetbag" ap-
pointments in the District OF Columbia
The Michigan Senator had taken the
floor to oppose the House bill which
would give the President power to ap-
point a Governor for the Hawaiian Is
lands from outside Of Hawaii. In the
midst of his attack on this bill Sena-
tor Vandenberg declared similar pro-
posals have been heard to "carpetbag
the District of Columbia"
Amazing Proposition"
After protesting against imposing an
external Governor over the people of
Hawaii, Senator vandenberg declared:
Furthermore, it is very amazing
thing to me that there is pending even
a proposal to carpet-bag the District
commisionership in the City of Wash
lngton. Certainly, there has not been
any great outburst of violence in the
National Capital. There has not been
any clashing of races in the National
Capital to justify carpet t-bagging here,
and yet the newspapers tell us, quoting
from headline in yesterdays news
paper, Omaha Man Called D. c. Head
Candidate / read because of its
significance, significant Of what may
lie behind this amazing proposition to
the people of Hawaii contrary to the
organic contract under which we have
lived with them for decades"
Senator Byrnes, Democrat, Of South
Carolina, interrupted to point out that
the law governing the District pro-
vides that the Commissioners must be
residents of the city (the organic act
Of 1878 contains q provision to the
effect that the two civilian Commits
sioners must have been bonafide resi-
dents of the District of Columbia for
three years next preceding their ap-
pointment).
Senator vandenberg said he knew
that, and added that organic law also
provides that the Governor Of Hawaii
must be resident of Hawaii for three
years.
"No other man can be appointed un-
less the law Is changed" interjected
Senator Byrnes.
Vandenberg Agrees.
Exactly" Senator Vandenberg re-
piled, land am wondering If after this
thing the Hawaiian bilD has been
tipped through the Senate in the last
days of the session, whether we shall
not confront resolution, because of
an alleged emergency, and the inability
Of the Democratic party to agree upon
who ought to be appointed to the COM
missionership, whether we shall not
have another sudden emergency reso-
luton like the one now pending for
the purpose of authorizing the impor-
tation of one of the governors Of the
District of Columbia.
II want to pursue that matter just a
little because think it is rather inter-
esting. I read from this article, which
may be as unreliable as my dear friend,

PRESIDENT TO SIGN
GLASS BILL TODAY
Praises Measure as Best
Bank Law Since Federal
Reserve Act.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
Radical revision of the country's
banking methods after years of agita-
ton to correct conditions leading to
bank failures and contributing to
financial booms and crashes will begin
to take shape Immediately.
The Glass-Steagall bank reform act,
possibly the greatest piece of perma-
nent legislation enacted by any recent
Congress, Is today becoming law.
President Roosevelt's signature had
been promised, and he had called it
"the best piece of banking legislation
since the Reserve Board act"
In the furry of getting the act
through Congress its main provisions
have been obscured by the one insuring
peoples checking and savings deposits,
but its far-reaching arms may alter
the course of American finance
Under 1t private banks, such as the
recently investigated j. p Morgan &
Co., will have to quit taking deposits or
stop floating securities.
Can Halt Credit.
All national banks must separate
themselves completely within one year
from their securities corporations.
Among the best known are such as the
National City Bank Of New York and
its National City Co.. which figured ex-
tensively in Senate investigation, but
hundreds of banks all over the country
have such aff1liates.
The Federal Reserve system, greatest
single channel for massing credit, is
now given the power to shut of this
stream of money from members lend
ing it to assist market speculation.
That will keep the public's billions from
being lent to brokers for financing
margin operations In a booming
market.
The Reserve Board is given the
power to remove from its member
banks, no matter where or how small,
officials whose policies are illegal or
even regarded "unsound.".
The practice, fostered by sharp COM
petition, of paying interest on check
ing accounts is stopped Reserve mem
Der banks may no longer make loans to
their officers. National banks may
operate branches in States which per-
init their own banks to do so, reducing
an advantage held by non-national in
stitutions and allowing branch-main-
tanning institutions to enter the national
fold.
