INITIATION
BILL HELD DEAD
House Leaders Resort to
Pressure to Remove Vote
Petition Names.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
House administration leaders passed
the word around today that the in
flationary FraZier-Lemke bill to re-
france farm mortgages with S3,000,-
100000 in new money ''is dead for
this session"
They based this prediction on the
fact they had made new progress in
their campaign to remove signatures
from a petition to force House vote
on the measure. The total stood at
only 2o3 signers today. Is short OF
the 2l6 signatures needed to force the
Dill out of the Rules Committee.
That was a loss of half a dozen
signers this week alone. Party lead
ers got busy about that time and.
while denying they were working On
instructions from President Roosevelt,
brought the strongest pressure against
Democrats 70 scratch their names.
Representative Lemke. Republican,
of North Dakota, who has denounced
the Democratic campaign against the
bill of which he is co-author, insisted
to-day I'VE will get enough signers. 3"
He still contended many of those who
had withdrawn their names would put
them back on.
But one high Democrat argued that
"at least 40" of the Democrats who
had signed the petition "as gesture"
would vote against the bill if 1t ever
came to a vote. He added that some
of those probably would scratch thei,
names before the session ends.
Concerning the idea of Senator
Borah, Republican, of Idaho, that the
Frazier -Lemke bill would be tackeo
to some other measure, one House
leader said:
The House would never stand for
anything like that"

any "other package away from Car
penter's hotel room, other than cigars
and books.
Never in my life" Patton replied.
Black asked Patton where he was
night before last.
He explained he had been sitting on
the front porch with his family listen
ing to guitar concert.
I'VE stayed out there until 10
o'clock" he added.
When Patton took the stand he
carried several books wrapped in a
newspaper, apparently similar to
those Carpenter said he took from the
hotel
Explaining he was called cousin
Nat" Patton said he was appearing
because it was nothing but fair to
the great State represent and to my
family" in view OF the aspersions
that have been cast"
He said he also did 1t for "the
great State of Alabama. represented
by Chairman Black, because I mar
ried a pretty little country girl from
the good old State of Alabama"
Tells Of Visit.
Patton said Carpenter, an old
friend. called him up on March 13
and invited him to the power Off
cial's hotel.
They visited about 10 minutes In
Carpenters hotel room, Patton said,
adding Il don't believe the utility bill
was even mentioned"
Later in the lobby Patton said Car
penter remarked that he had heard
good reports of the Representatives
attitude on the bill. That he was for
the bill but against the death SEN
tence."
Il said that was correct" Patton
added. He was naturally pleased"
Committee members let Patton tell
his story without interruption.
He held up before the committee
the two books he said he took to the
hotel for Carpenters son. He said
he took them there the Saturday be-
fore the House voted on the utility
bill.
On that same visit. Patton said,
Carpenters son offered him the box
of cigars.
Stories Differ.
. Patton testified the boy asked his
father if it was all right to give the
Representative the cigars, and Car
penter replied 20. K"
Carpenter told the committee yes
terday he did not know the cigars had
been given to Patton, but was told
about it by his son.
Meanwhile, a spokesman for the
American Bar Association-Louis G.
Caldwell of Chicago-testified before
the House Judiciary Committee against
the Black bill to require registration
of all lobbyists in Congress or the
Government departments.
He said that would subject members
of the legal profession to indignity
and annoyance. The measure has been
passed by the Senate.
Caldwell said he had been perhaps
as active as any one Gin condemning
and in attempting to expose some OF
the questionable practices which we
know are occasionally INDUCED in be-
fore some of the Federal executive and
administrative agencies, sometimes by
lawyers, sometimes by laymen, and
sometimes by lawyers holding them
selves out to do work which Is not
really of o legal nature"

become 'improba BILE"
The Senate also plunged into con-
sideration today of the heart Of the
bill. This gives control OF credit to
a Federal Reserve Board Of seven and
five representatives of the regional re-
serve banks.
1t differs from the House bill. For
example. the latter measure would
give the Reserve Board alone exclus-
i've say about Reserve bank buying
and selling of Government securities.
Bank representatives would have no
vote in the decisions.
Yesterday the Senate approved an
other section Of the bill which makes

ance law perrs nent. Under this de-
posits up to $1,000 are insured. An

would be lowered to one-twelfth of !

Glass Launches Attack.
A feature Of yesterdays discussion
was an attack by Glass on Eccles'
monetary views. Saying he was
amused" at the Reserve Board gov
ernor's proposal to prevent imitation
by delegating more power to the Re-
serve Board than the present bill al
lows, Glass said that "of all the in
flationists. he has exceeded the group.
Glass said that Eccles, the newest
member Of the board, never had q
days association with Federal Re-
serve bank in his life. but proceeded
within 90 days after his nomination
to propose revolutionary changes in
the system
The Virginian added that the board
has never had a magician in its men,

Jealousy" Blamed.
Discussing the provision barring
interlocking directorates except to per-
nit commercial or private banker tc
serve on his own board and the board
of lone" other bank. Glass spoke OF
Jealousy" on the part of an unnamed
New York banker of some of his pri-
vate banking competitors.
THE gentleman who has made the
most furor about this provision" he
said, lis a great banker whose insti-
tuition engaged in more vicious and
hurtful transactions than any other
bank on the American continent ano
lost millions upon millions of dollars
in the process.
HE seems to entertain a jealousy
of one or two private bankers in his
city and, through his jealousy of them
and enmity toward them, he has
stirred up fuss about this interlock-
ing director provision which permits
commercial and private bankers to
serve on one other bank board

We were glad to see so many of

the time when Mt. Olivet was at
her heights. 1t was quite a sur
prise to those who came to church
at twelve o'clock expecting to be in
time for the morning service, but
to find that they were just in time
to take part in the offering. We
are glad that we have a pastor
who knows when to start and what
time to let out. If you are in the
habit of attending church at Mt.
Olivet, you will have to get there
before twelve. The text for the
pastors discourse for last Sunday
was from 1877 Psalms, LIST verse.
He was ably assisted by the choir.
The Mission Circle met at the
home of Mrs. j. w. Phelps on last
