DRY LIONS IN
REPEAL DEBATE
City Attorney Admits He
Would Rather Drink Beer
Than Address Pastors.

Alone and unafraid, Leo NJ.
Rappaport, Indianapolis attorney
and former repeal leader, bearded
the dry lions in their den yesterday
and came away smiling.
Mr.. Rappaport hied himself to
the closing session of the mid
summer institute of Butler univer-
sity college Of religion and informed
the assembled ministers and theol-
ogy students that he would much
prefer a cool glass of beer to
addressing the multitude. He ex-
planned that he doubted his ability
to change the opinions of any of
the assembled persons.
Mr.. Rappaport, in a gathering
conspicuous for its arid sentiments,
took the negative side of the queS-
ton, Resolved, that repeal of the
eighteenth amendment has proven
disastrous and demoralizing."
The dry side of the question, obvi-
ously the more popular, had been
handled ably by DR.. James A. Grain,
chairman of the Disciples of Christ
board of temperance and social well
fare prior to Mr.. Rappaport's ap-
pearance.
DR.. Grain cited figures from
various cities to show that repea
had failed to diminish hard liquor

drinking and that alcoholic deaths
had increased since Dec. 5, 1888.
In st. Louis, deaths from alcohol
doubled in six months of repeal"
said DR.. Grain. In Los Angeles,
there has been an increase of 104
per cent in numbers of arrests for
drunkenness since repeal. Among
other cities that have shown in
creases is Newcastle, Ind, with a 535
per cent increase"
Repeal has not relieved the fed
eral government Of enforcement of
liquor laws, but only has intensified
and complicated the problem" said
the dry advocate. state regulation
was failure before the prohibition
era and will be again"
"Of all the state laws" said DR..
Grain, "the Indiana liquor law prob
ably is the most vicious"
Both speakers believed the open
saloon is the best medium for dis
tributing drinks at retail and that
high taxation encourages the public
to patronize illegal dispensers of
liquor.
Mr.. Rsppaport said that his OPP
ponent had fallen into the usual
error of the advocates Of prohibition
that of speaking for everybody
else"
Figures aren't worth thing" he
said, and therefore I won't quote
any.
1T took twelve years to convince
the people of the land that prohibi-
ton was failure and you can't ex-
pect great reforms in a few months.
People finally understood what pro-
hibition was doing and voted it out
A wave of sentiment brought it to
us, and wave of resentment sent
it away. Now we must choose a
middle course"
Mr.. Rappaport declared that boot
leggers made liquor available at all
times during prohibition and that
intoxication increased, especially
among boys and girls, and that in

toxication in the best clubs went to
a point never before dreamed OF.
Mr.. Rsppaport expressed the idea
that prevalence Of women drinkers
would raise the tone Of bars. In
rebuttal, DR.. Grain said he feared
the saloons would lower the tone Of
women.
Mr.. Rappaport referred to phras-
ing of DR.. Grains rebuttal question
and said that he did not know of
any person who had been demor-
allied by repeal.
IF repeal has demoralized DR..
Grain, he still is my friend. said
Mr.. Rappaport.
The two speakers shook hands
warmly outside the hall after the
debate.

BANKS AID POLICY
Chairman Jones Outlines
Plans for Mortgage
Financing.

Declaring the Government does not
want a repetition of the mortgage
bond tragedy any more than we
want a repetition of mistakes in other
fields of financing" Chairman Jones
of the Reconstruction Finance Corp.
told the American Bankers Associa-
tion today there were several i'm
portant buildings here in receiver
ship because of lack of credit.
Jones outlined the new Federal
policy for organization or expansion
of financial institutions lending upon
mortgages" and pointed out that
much can be done in the cause of
recovery by assistance to both credi-
tor and debtor
There are several important build
ings in this city, now in receivership
whose bonds have sold at fraction of
their real value" said Jones. because
there was no fair market for them, and
no money available to reorganize the
properties, and take them out of re-
ceivership."
Declaring these mortgage trust COM
panies or mortgage loan companies
should be privately owned and private
ly managed, Jones asked the bankers
Ito cooperate and assist in correcting
the mortgage situation by taking the
lead in organizing these companies and
in seeing that they are differed by
men experienced in mortgage lending.

Talley of R. F. C. Tells Auditors
Junior Workers Counsel
Is Essential.

Stop hiring lawyers for bank presi-
dents and give the young fellow who

P. Talley. special assistant to the di-
rectors of the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation, today advised delegates
to the tenth annual convention of the
Association of Bank Auditors and
Controllers, being held at the Ward

junior workers who have first-hano
knowledge OF the business.
Oscar G. Schalk of st. Louis was
elevated to the presidency of the as
sociation. He had been first vice presi-
dent and succeeds Howard D. Steele OF

SAN FRANCISCO, October PA
Federal Court order which attorneys
said was equivalent to upholding the
Governments gold policy was issued
here yesterday in a case brought by
the Argonaut Mining Co. of California.
United States District Judge A. F..
st. Sure dismissed without comment
the companys action seeking to en-
Join Federal authorizes from prosecut-
ing it for alleged violation of the gold
boarding act and President Roosevelt's s
gold-seizure order.
"As a result of the courts decision" I"
United States District Attorney H. H.
McPike said, I'VE will proceed not only
with criminal prosecution of the COM
pany under the collaborating act, but
we will file a label action against the
gold involved-some 7,171 ounces, val
ued at $3.50. .0000-with the intention
Of seizing it. The gold is now in a
bank safety deposit vault"
The gold involved was mined during
May. June and July. 1888, but was not
offered to the mint here until after
August /. 1888, when the price was
fixed at $34.05 an ounce. The mint
refused to pay more than s2067 an
ounce. the price at the time the gold
was mined.
The company refused to surrender
possession. In its action. it attacked
the constitutionality of the gold
boarding act and presidential order.

BANKERS WARNED
0FFEDERA[ STEPS
Told Government May Act
if Standards Are Not
Maintained.

A warming that the Government
may step in If private savings banks
fail to measure up to the proper
standards was sounded this afternoon
by DR.. L. Douglas Meredith, Vermont
commissioner of banking, in an ad-
dress before the savings bank division
of the American Bankers Association.
Emphasizing that banking is in an
era of change, Meredith expressed the
opinion that the one consequence of
this will be the necessity of conducting
savings business with smaller margin
of profit.
Lower Interest Rates Seen.
Henry S. Kingman, treasurer of the
Farmers & Mechanics Savings Bank
of Minneapolis, told the meeting that
Government competition in the bank
ing field is making it more difficult to
attract private capital to business, and
that lower interest on savings may be
looked for in the near future
kingman pointed out that postal
savings is a competitive factor and he
said he sees no reason for the con-
tinuance of postal savings. amplifying
that bank deposits now are insured, !,
immigration has been definitely
checked and that the avowed purpose
of postal savings to afford banking
opportunities to people in districts
without banks has not been fulfilled.
Investments Stand Up.
Will C. Wood, vice president and
manager of the Bank of America
National Trust and Savings AsSocia-
ton of Oakland, Calf, another speak
er said that investments in real estate
had stood up surprisingly we'll during
the depression, and that among the
assets of banks on which losses have
been taken, real estate loans have
been responsible for a smaller per-
centage of losses, computed on the
basis of volume carried, than any
other type of loan or investment"

The British never liked the idea OF
ratios. When Sir Austin Chamberlain
was foreign secretary he received a
from Secretary Kel-
logg about the resumption of naval
talks which had failed few months
earlier at Geneva. That communlca-
ton was never answered, because
Chamberlain thought there could be
no actual parity. Talking off the
record, Chamberlain informed Amer
ican newsgatherers in London that
when you have finished what you
think you want and we have built
what We actually need. there will be
parity between the British and the
American fleets"
Sir Herbert Russell, WELL
knopn English naval ,1riter Uho
frequently is spokesman of the
admiralty, stated emphatically that
the unanimous trend OF thought
OF the British admiralty is that
Britain ought to cut clear from
all Gripping entGnglementS and
regain her freedom to maintain q
fleet as she deems necessary and
not as other nations kindly con-
sent OF our doing"
He added significantly that ii
