 Many large firms plan to issue l their own scrip-merely vouch, l in small denominations, pledging the firms resources as guarantee of cash redemption. The Standard | oil Company of California Is among these firms.
 The Kansas City Clearing House association met to-day to deter mine the form of scrip to be used and methods of meeting the cur rency stringency. Certificates, backed jointly by the association probably will be issued. Howell, Michigan, already is using "trade dollars backed by the Chamber of Commerce. About | $1O,0OO of this money is in circula- tion.
 The Pittsburgh Clearing House committee met to-day to determine on the kind of scrip to be used.
 Scrip, backed either by reput- able merchants, by chambers o1 commerce, or other semi-publit institutions, has been used as g medium of exchange by Iowa cit izens for some time. This money was put in circulation in Council { Bluffs by merchants. In others, the city itself printed the vouch- | CTS.
 Hartford and New Haven, Conn, clearing houses were prepared to- day to issue scrip. The City ol Waterbury, Conn, has established an exchange for bills ana "change." In Salt Lake City, the Church or the Latter Day Saints (Mormon) planned to issue it's own scrip for circulation among 72,000 members and 68 wards. The plan provides for certificates negotiable for mer- chandise and service, but valueless if deposited in bank. Stamps would be purchased and attached to each certificate at intervals, and the certificate eventually would be redeemed at face value by the cen- tral committee.
 New York, March 6-(UP)-- New York's scrip, whether it is ping, green, purple, or Eleanor blue, won't be as colorful as the red feathers used for money in Santa Cruz, nor as solid as the miIlstones carted around for small change in the Caroline islands.
 Money is nothing but medium of exchange, and it's value is de- termined by how much faith peo- pie have in it--and what it will buy.
 A mill stone will buy a swell wife or two in the Carolines. Red and white shell disks, highly pol ished, are coveted by Melanesians. The Fiji Islanders keep sperm whale teeth in their tin boxes and deem themselves walthy.
 Iron bars, in the form of spears, and cloth, are currency along the upper Nile, and rock salt will buy loin cloths in Abyssinia.
 "Cowrie," which is a sea shell currency, exists from the Sahara desert to the Gulf of Benin.

 Boston, March 6-UP) )-Fore- seeing a "speedy reopening of our
 banking institutions" Governor
 Ely to-day appealed to the legisla-
 ture to grant to himself and the state bank com missioner broad powers for dealing with this anu future emergencies.
 In a 1,0OO-word special message delivered to a joint session of the
 general court before crowded gal
 ieries in the house chamber, the
 governor recommended: That the governor be empow- cred, when he deems an emergency exists, to proclaim banking emefSeuCyp SuoJSStA6 N special regulation.
 ,, That during such a period the banking. commissioner be empow- cred to order any bank or all banks to restrict all or any part of their business.
 That banks operating under re- strictions be permitted to receive new deposits but that such deposits be segregated, to be invested .n
 assets adjudged by the commis- sioner sufficiently liquid as to be available to meet any demand.
 That broad powers be vested n l the bank commissioner so that, IT 1 circumstances warrant, industry might be permitted to withdraw banking funds, regardless of other restrictions, to be used in meeting
 pay-rolls.

CONTEMPT FOR THE CONSTITUTION

There could hardly be more open contempt
shown for constitutional law than the act just
signed into law by Governor Blackwood limiting
the amount creditor may collect to the real value
of the property that mortgaged as security.
Suppose borrower gave mortgage at ALL but
only his note In that case presumably he ought
not to have to pay anything.
As hard as it may be to pay debts or lose ones
property, there is no good to come from the Vio-
lating of moral obligations. 1t to put an end
to such runous tactics that undermined the already
weakened economic life of the decade following
the Revolution that the constitution of the United
States declared that no state shall make or enforce
any law impairing the obligation of contracts.
The same contempt for elemental law is mani
tested by the act forbidding textile mills from
charging tenants for rent water, or lights during
suspension of operations. If the Legislature may
take away the property of a cotton mill without
compensation las specifically forbidden by the con-
stitution to do, it can take away any mans prop
erty and give it to another.
Both these acts, destined to overthrow as soon
as tested in the federal courts, manifestations
of the loss of normal self-control Yielding to sucn
impulses weakens the very foundations of civilized
existence The weakness should have been resist

BREAKING OUR PROMISES

One of our exchanges has placed a severe indict-
ment upon our present age, when it states that
the people of country are not only breaking
their promises but are being officially encouraged
to do so. In it's own words
"Are we to cOndone, and even officially encour-
age, the breaking of promises? E. The essence
of business and political and professional morality
is in the kept word. When a nation blandly
declines to pay its obligations to another nation;
when government suggests to the citizen that he
can repudiate without losing his good name, at
that moment moral fbers come fabby guide-posts
vanish and national disintegration sets in. No
course could be too drastic which would preserve
for this nation its time-honored conception of re-
liability and dependabiity, of the sacredness of
the promised word. "-Newberry Is. c. Observer.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
LAST ACT oF A FARCE

I 1t now appears that the end of the legislature Is
actually in sight but that it is bringing with II de-
feat and not victory for the taxpayers OF Noftn
Carolina. The house adopted the conference repor'
on the revenue bill 45-40, surrenderlng absolutely
to the demands of the senate, abandoning Its own
two per cent sales tax rate and adopting the SEN
ate three per cent rate, and yielding the Ewing
kilowatt hour tax electrical energy which 1t mao
previously passed.
If the legislature adjourns Thursday with legls-
lation as now stands it will have accomplished four
major feats: legalized drink Optimistically re-
ferred to as beer; changed the ad valorem tax Tor
schools into a sales tax; provided for uniform
state-supported school terms local supplements oil
eight months, no more, no less; and provided Tor
