0.N.SO.-Farmers must now look
ahead to 1886 and prepare to pre-
vent overproduction, R. H. Rogers,
agricultural economist for the AAA
told extension workers and growers
of eight States at a conference
here. He said:
Inevitably production Of both
livestock and grains would get
out of hand within a few years,
If nothing is done. A year from
now, If feed is Overplanted be-
cause of the shortage caused by
the drOuth, feed prices would
probably be low in relation to
livestock prices and another one
Of the characteristic violent up
swings in livestock production
would be undeR way"

CHECK-UP
To Be UNIFIED
BY ROBERT S. THORNBURGH
International News Service

Following conferences of bank
ing examiners representing the
various systems here it has been
decided officially to adopt a
uniform system of examination, it
was learned today.
Bank examination under the
National, Federal Reserve and
Federal Deposit Insurance Cor
poration system will be simpli-
fled greatly. Since the Federal
Deposit is involved. the uniform
system will apply to non-member
banks of the Federal Reserve sys-
tenn as we'll as those under di-
rect Federal jurisdiction.
Cooperation of state banking
authorities will be enlisted and
probably one form of eXamina-
ton will be adopted for both Fed
eral and State Jurisdictions.
Consideration is being given by
high Government officials to bank
legislation which may be intro
duced in Congress. The central
bank" was regarded as definitely
out"
Some experts believe legislation
eventually would be introduced to
place all bank examination under
the FDIC. BY July l. 1896 all
institutions to qualify for deposit
insurance must be members of the
Federal Reserve system which in
effect constitutes a unified bank
ing system.
DR.. Jacob Viner was chairman
of the meeting of examiners. His
report will be submitted to Secre-
tary Morgenthau shortly.
The uniform banking eXamina-
ton will be applicable at the next
bank call.

j. s. IS URGED
To BUY AIRPORT.

Urging that the Washington
Hoover Airport be taken over by
the Federal Government. Samuel
]. Solomon, operator of the air
port, told the Federal Aviation
Commission yesterday that the
stop lights on Military Road
where it passes through the field
have been the cause of consider
able controversy.
After the lights had been in
stalled to warn motorists when
planes were to take off or land,
Mr.. Solomon said, an Army truck
failed to heed a red light and a
collision with a plane was mar
rowly averted.
He wrote to Fort Myer in re-
gard to the incident. Mr.. Solomon
said, and received a reply from
Col. Kenyon A. Joyce. comman.
dant, which said:
"May 1 ask the date that this
light was installed on United
States Government property,
and by what authority such &C
ton was taken?"
Mr.. Solomon admitted he had
no authority to install the lights,
but said he had done SO with q
view to preventing accidents.
In his support of the proposal
that the Government take over
the airport, Mr.. Solomon said the
National Airport Corporation,
present owner of the property,
will sell for $1,5OO,OOO, or would
be willing to permit an indie
pendent condemnation board set
the value.

SABATH BLAMES
BANKERS PLOT

Only few hours before Presi-
dent Roosevelt was to address the
American Bankers Association
convention on important financial
and credit matters presumably,
Representative SABBATH CD Of
Illinois made the charge at the
White House that there is a gen.
eral conspiracy among the bankers
of the country, particularly Chi
cago, to prevent the free use Of
money and credit.
Representative SABBATH said bust
ness in the Middle West and in
the country generally is slowing
up because manufacturers and
merchants cannot borrow suffi-
cient money to renew their raw
material and stocks.

Democrats May Take
Slap at Sinclair

Those who have watched close
ly this arm flinging have observed
that in each instance Mr.. SIN
clair was the hugger.
But he has done it so deftly
and explained it so glibly that
those who haven't watched closely
have got the impression that Mr..
Sinclair was the Rugged.
Mr.. Sinclair'S dizziness in hug
ging and his glibness in explain.
ing gave great many persons
the impression that he left the
summer White House at Hyde
Park with Mr.. Roosevelt's political
blessing.
How 1t Works
Mr.. Roosevelt may have given
it: he may not. But there is no
public record that the President
said anything except that he
would have nothing to do with
State campaigns.
"I couldn't sleep the night
before 1 saw the President"
explained Mr.. Sinclair the day
after he left Hyde Park. "but
last night, after my talk with
MIR. Roosevelt, 1 slept like a
baby"
II thought l had some Origi-
nal ideas until 1 talked with
Mr.. Roosevelt" Mr.. Sinclair
said in Washington the next
day, "but then l learned some
of mine were not so original"
From those remarks. and SINH
lar ones, Mr.. Sinclair permitted

Upton Sinclair is likely to find
himself in the role of He Who
Gets Slapped" if he doesn't keep
his political arms to himself
until the votes are counted two
weeks from today.
The next time you see a head
line, Cabinet Officers to Speak
for Sinclair" or Democrats to
Campaign for Epic"-Skip it.
No member of the national Ad'
ministration is going to make a
campaign speech for the former
Socialist who is an embarrassed
Democracy's candidate for gov
ernor of California.
The most that the Administra-
ton is going to do for Mr.. Sin
clair, whispers voice of authority
from the throne room, is to let
him win if he can"
From that point downward
there are a number of things that
can happen.
The worst of these would be a
slap of disavoWal.
If Mr.. Sinclair keeps his politi-
cal arms to himself between now
and election day he won't get
slapped.
Deft at Hugging
If he doesn't keep his arms to
himself, we'll, the same voice OF
authority whispers that there are
some potent persons in this town
who are indignant because the
Californian has flung his arms
around their neckS.

New Bureau Asked
To Cut r. r. Waste

A scientific research bureau to
help eliminate waste in the rail
road industry was advocated last
night by Joseph B. Eastman, Fed
eral coordinator of Transporta-
ton, at the quarterly dinner of
the Alexandria Chamber of Com
merce in the George Mason Hotel.
Mr.. Eastman stated that coor-
dination of railroad activities to
eliminate unnecessary wastes can
save $35. 900 900 to $50,O00,OO0 an
nually.

Information about this PROJECT.
By JOHN DEAN MILLIGAN
While the principal benefit Of
the "modernization" drive will be
gained by owners of property who
will be able to make repairs and
improvements under the most in
expensive type of personal, I'M
secured financing ever known,
many others also will benefit.
In Washington, for instance,
the builders, architects, building
supply dealers, home and store
equipment merchants, and many
others are already experiencing
real gains in business.
This is inevitable, in view of
the fact that about $1,000,000 has
been spent for property improve
ment here since August.
Dealers Should Aid Drive
It is therefore only reasonable
that the merchants and dealers
who will gain business from the
drive should contribute TO its
support.
The Washington Better 4fous-
ing Campaign, under the direc-
ton of Thomas P. Littlepage, is
purely local project, endeavor-
ing to put over the plans of the
Federal Housing Administration,
but in no way connected with
that agency.
All expenses of the drive,
which is designed to acquaint
property owners with the selfish
benefits of keeping their holdings
up-to-date, are being borne by
local merchants and dealers.
Headquarters Opened
The local housing campaign
headquarters has been established
on the ground floor of the
Shoreham Building, in space do
mated by the owners through
their agents. Weaver Brothers.
At this office owners of all
kinds of property, can obtain
authoritative information on any
phase of the national housing
program. particularly as to the
way in which Uncle Sam is help
ing the improvement of property
through the low-rate "moderniza-
ton" loans.
Drop in these offices and find
out how you can benefit from
the national housing program.
TOmOrrOw's article will con-
tinue this discussion of the
"modernizatiOn" drive.
