FLETCHER RAPS
CzARS Of CREDIT
Calls on Rank ard File Of
Bankers to Support
Omnibus Bill.
" the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
Hitting out sharply at few bankers
who are lin the know" Senator Flet-
cher, Democrat. of Florida and chair
man of the Senate Banking Com
mittee, last night appealed to the
rank and file of members of the bank
ing profession to support the pending
1mnibus banking bill.
Speaking on the radio. the Senator
asserted that few bankers are in a
dominant position to lay down rules
for making money tight or easy. that
there Is no way of calling them to
account for their actions and that
the remaining thousands of bankers
in the country bear the onus without
ever knowing what 1t is all about.
This majority, he declared. should
1oin in supporting sections of the
banking bill which are designed to
centralize control over currency and
credit in the Federal Reserve Board.
1T is my earnest desire" he added.
"that the Is or 20 thousand bewildered
bankers, who have never known and
cannot be expected to know why
money is tight or easy demand that
this great destabilizing and disturbing
factor of monetary policy be separated
from banking per Sc and placed in the
hands of men who must and who
shall be held responsible and account
able for their acts.
Undoubtedly in this great Nation
We can find at least five or eight men,
depending upon the final provisions
of the act who know what it is all
about and can be trusted to administer
our monetary policy intelligently and
with the greatest amount of integrity
and respect for the people and to act
for the public welfare"

Bill Changes.

Proposed amendments to the Dis
trict Alcohol Beverage Control Board
bill, designed to tighten the existing
liquor act, were discussed ct . two
hour executive meeting today of the
Judiciary Subcommittee Of the House
District Committee.
The subcommittee, it was announced,
failed to reach any definite conclu-
sions on the proposed changes, but
it was indicated Representative Dirk
sen, Republican, Of Illinois, made q
vigorous fight to have provision writ
ten into the measure to eliminate the
so-called hidden bars"
Dirksen is author Of q bill to ac-
complish the same purpose, which Is
now on the House calendar. but due
to serious objections to some OF its
provisions. it probably will be with
drawn. He believes. however, the
criticism Is not directed primarily at
the open bar" provision, and that the
plan might be approved by the House
if it is embodied in the control board
bill
The Control Boards measure would
prevent the consumption of liquor in
night clubs. restaurants and other
establishments selling liquor by the
drink after the deadline on the legal
sale. It also would give the board
authority to suspend as we'll as re-
woke the permit of q licensee.
The subcommittee will hold another
executive session tomorrow in an ef-
fort to reach a decision on the pro-
posed amendments. It hopes to have
the bill in shape to report to the full
District Committee at its regular
meeting Wednesday.

many kinds of brown bread are
dry and have woody taste, but I
believe your new wheat bread IS
supplying the public with a long

Cheshire, England, 70 years ago.
Mottrem is about 10 miles from

christened and baptized by Canon
Tasker. He emigrated to America

Mitchell's second trip to America.
He was the English heavyweight
champion. On this particular
voyage, he brought Slavtn to
America to fight Jake Kilrain.
They clashed in Jersey City

managed and seconded the Aus

the betting. Slavin later went to

turned to England.
