IN the last pell-mell rush to push
i through President ROOsevelt's
must" legislation before adjourn
ment. Congress. tired and not a lit
tie fretful at having spen. almost
eight months az the grindstone
passed bills left and right. The stone
revolved slowly for about seven
months. hardly making Storage
wav. but its momentum grew in
proportion 10 the desire OF the ak
grinders to be gone. and this week
the sparks flew
one of the most important of
them left Capitol Hill on Monday.
Il was the bank bill. Signed by the
President yesterday. it became the
Banking Act Of 1885
Salient points. The Federal Re-
serve System is drastically rcOrgan-
lied, much greater authority be-
ing given the Administration. The
Federal Reserve Board, which now
consists of six members plus the
Secretary of Treasury and Con-
trOller Of Currency Cthe last two
serving ex officio), hencefOrth will
be comprised Of seven members,
the Treasury Secretary and Cur
rency Controller being dropped al
together.
The act also centralizes control
over open market operations and
rediscOunt rates. Banks may lend
on collateral not now regarded as
eligible but which they consider
sufficient security. Restrictions on
real estate loans are bTOadened.
Federal insurance on bank deposits
Is continued. but state banks with
more than 100000 in deposits are

COUTHERN Senators who had
- been counting on a continual
ton of the 12-cent government
loan on cotton raised a storm Of
protest when the Agricultural Adj
iustment Administration guaran-
teed producers a minimum of II
cents on their sales and fixed the
loan on the 1885 crop at cents.
The cotton coalition. headed by
Senator James Byrnes ID, S. c.,
retaliated by getting the Appro-
priatiOn Committee to attach an
amendment to the deficiency bill
providing for the fiat 12-cent loan
without the subsidy.
Under the new Administration
plan, target of the SOuthland's at
tack. the government would agree
to loan farmers cents a pound on
this years crop. That supposedly
would give them ready cash and
enable them to delay actual mar
keting of the crop. Then. when
cotton is finally sold. the AAA
guarantees that the farmers av-
erage return will be u cents
pound. It would fulfill this guar
antee by making a direct subsidy
payment to the farmers.
Whatever the difference is be-
tween ID cents and the average
price of spot cotton from Sept. l
to Jan. l. Will &c the amount of
the subsidy. which will be in addi-
ton to benefit payments for re-
strictiOn of production under the
Bankhead act
Markets felt the repurcussions of
this battle. Yesterday cotton
dropped a full cent to around
1Oi2 cents a pound. Citing this
drop. Southern Senators asserted
that the new policy would be disas-
trous in the long run.

According to the noted song

"Song-poem." Say they:
Songs, whether for the screen

created by the closest collabora-

Low Birthrate
Hits Austria
By F. c. Nj. JAIN
United Press Staff Correspondent

united freSS Stdti
VIENNA, May ~. CUP).-The
Austrian nation will die out slow;
w. if the present downward treno
of the birth rate continues: &C
cording to statistics by Wilhelm
Winkler. head of the census oe-
partment. ;, A.,
More than a quarter Of all Aus
trian marriages remain sterile, his
statistics demonstrate.
Of all marriages concluded IN
Austria between 1890 and l93o
not less than 25 per cent remain
ed without issue; q per cent OF
the couples had only one child;
20 per cent had two. while Z7.s
per cent gave birth to three or
more children.
DETAILED ANALYSIS
4 detailed analysis of the fig
ures for the last decade reveals
that the birthrate continues rap
idlv to decline, as is shown by
the following figures for Vienna.
It is true. the situation in the
capital is worse than in the prov
inces, but there the trend also is
downward.
Of the marriages concluded
here between 1890 and 1908 20
per cent remained childless. From
1904 to 1913 this percentage IN
creased to %: between 1914 and
1918 to 26: between 1919 and
1928 to 80; in 1924 to 40: IN
1925 to Al: in 1926 to AZ; in
1927 to As: in 1928 to 3S, and IN
1923 to 81.
ONE-CHILD MARRIAGES
One-child marriages developed
similarly. but their percentage
remained stationary in 1928 and
1929.
While among Viennese couples,
married between 1890 and 1908.
there still were IT per cent with
four or more children. the cor
Responding figure was only 3 per
cent in 1880.
In the snarselv populated ruraI
districts. % per cent of the cou-
pies had an average of four or
more children during the four
decades analyzed by Winkler.
They are not able to fill the gap
caused Nv the decreased birthrate
in the districts with dense popu-
lations.
Because of the reduction in
mortality rates in recent years.
Austria's population is not de-
clining. ;,
The country still has small
active annual balance of 10 per
cent, but if the present develop
ment continues, the nation is
doomed to die out, Winkler de-
clared.

PRIMARY LAW
DISCUSSED in
MEETING, 18th
Proposition To Change NOmina-
ting System Back To Old
Convention Plan
DEMOCRATS FAVOR BILL
WITH A REFERENDUM

At the call of Senator M. L. Veasey,
a number of representative Democrats
met in the Firemen's room of the
Municipal Building this city, on Sum
day last, March 18th.
The object of this meeting was to
discuss the merits of bill introduced
into the Senate by Senator Veasey and
passed by that body. Before sending
it on to the House, the Senator de-
sired to get the sentiment of some Of
the leaders throughout the county.
The bill was designed to change the
method of nominating candidates to
office to the old convention system
abolishing the present method of Sc
lection by primary.
Nearly every district was represent
ed and the matter was fully discuss
ed. Various opinions were held; some
feeling that the change should be
made; some that it should not; some
that it should be made but that this
was an in opportune time to make it;
some thought it should be made but
the matter was being hurried; and
some thought the law to change should
have a referendum attached to be
voted on at the next election.
A recess was ordered for the differ
ent district groups to get together
and try to come to some decision that
could be considered as directing Wor-
cester's representative in their action.
This resulted in a majority of the dis
tricts ruling for passage of the bill
at the present session of the General
Assembly, but that a referendum
should be attached and the voters ex-
press their opinion at the election two
years hence. The meeting then adj
journed after Senator Veasey had ex-
planned some matters pertaining to
legislation.
The action of the meeting regard
ing the primary law is considered to
have been judicious. Both methods of
nominating to office have other OBJ
jections, but it is a question as to
whether they will ever be removed. To
many, the old Convention system
leaves fewer political scars than do
the primary battles. However, the
people will have a chance to say what
they want, and nobody will have any
reason to complain of the outcome of
the referendum.

CRISFIELD HIGH SCHOOL
DEFEATS CAMBRIDGE

The Crisfield High School basket
ball team defeated Cambridge High
in the Crisfield Armory, on Wednes-
day night by the score of 33 to 20.
This victory earns for the Somerset
boys the championship of the Eastern
Shore, having defeated Salisbury and
Pocomoke, champions of Wicomico
and Worcester, respectively. Cam
bridge had won the championship of
the northern section, made up of Ches-
tertown, Easton and other towns.
Crisfield will now meet the winner
of the Western Shore championship
to decide State honors. Generally,
the Western Shore boys pack little
too many guns for the schools this
side the Bay; but Crisfield has good
team and will be hard to beat. It has
the benefit Of the coaching of Car
rington, the Washington College star,
and he has rounded them into good
form. The date of the State Champ
ionship has not yet been settled.
