Glass Bill 10 Extend
Bank Directors Time
Vetoed by Roosevelt
Inter|ocking Boards Have
Had a Years to Dissolve,
He Says in Message
BY the Associated Press.

President Roosevelt yesterday
chose for his 18th veto of the year
bill by Senator Glass, Democrat,
of Virginia which would have ex-
tended the time for Federal Re-
serve member banks to divest them
selves of interlocking directorates.
In his veto message, the Chief
Executive said that if Congress had
decided four years ago that it was
in the public interest to terminate
these relationships. cit is in the
public interest to terminate them
now
Affected banks and affected di-
rectorates have had over four years
to make adjustments, he said.
That would seem to be liberal
time.
IF the Congress wishes to reverse
itself and allow interlocking direc-
torships in the future. it can, of
course, do so. But 1 do not think
that the Congress should nullify it's
policy, declared in 1885, by EXTEND
ing interlocking directorships for
another four years on top of the
four years extension which has al
ready been given
The ban was enacted by Con-
gress in the Banking Act of August
%, 1885. 1t was in the form of an
amendment to the Clayton Anti
trust Act.
To avoid hardship, member bank
directors who held similar posi-
tions with other banks before pass
age Of the new law were given until
February l, 1889. to terminate these
relationships. Shortly before the
end of this period, the Federal
Reserve Board exercised its discre-
ton under the law and extended
the time to August l, 1899, as to
relationships involving not more
than two banks.
The Glass bill would have grant,
ed another extension, to February
/, 1914.

1OCents Per Voter Daily Covers
Cost Of Educating 100000

More than 100000 persons are
graduated yearly from the high
schools of the Nation and more than
$4,000 college students receive de-
grees. Nearly 80 per cent of all full
time pupils are enrolled in publicly
controlled schools, it was stated.
In 1896 there were more than
1000 900 teachers in all types and
grades of public and private schools
and 266, 900 of them were men.
The median education of the
country, according to the survey is
only completion of the elementary
school.
Educational property values are
estimated by the Office at more than
10 billion dollars, with endowment
and other trust funds exceeding two
billions. Elementary schools an
nually spend more than billion,
high schools more than $500 900 and
colleges and universities about $493,-
0O0, 900.

Japan. Chinese lilies from the Land
of the Lotus, raffiata from the
Island of Madagascar, cape flowers
from the Cape of Good Hope South
Africa, palm seed from New Zea-

and the West Indies. orchids from
the Andes Mountains in South
America, pine cones from the Ca
madam Northwest and ivy from
Mexico.
Scarcely a cultivated flower on
earth has not at some time or
other made its way into Anacostia,
mecca of flower lovers the world
over. And this is the achievement
that Bill" Guide looks back on
today as he sits on his front porch
out Laurel way and lets his mind
wander back over more than half
a century of flower raising
No wonder he wears proudly in
his buttonhole a choice Red Ra-
dance rose, his own gift to the

If each person of voting age in
the United States contributed 10
cents a day, the total amount would
cover the cost of educating the more
than 27,0ooo0O persons in public
schools and the more than 5000 900
enrolled in private schools and COL
leges.
This was revealed yesterday by
Commissioner of Education John w.
Studebaker in a statistical summary
of general questions about educa-
ton in America.
Among the highlights of the find
ings of the Federal Office of Educa-
ton headed by DR.. Studebaker were
that there are approximately 276,-
500 public and private schools and
colleges in the country supplying
information to the office and pro-
viding education to more than 30,-
100000 persons in fuu-time day
schools.

This Month
Non-FederoI Projects
In D. c. Employ
1,779 in June

With As per cent of its 6.161 non
Federal projects completed and ir
use. it was reported yesterday the
1888 Public Works Administration
program will reach its peak of en-
ployment and spending during this
month.
Col. E. R. Clark, acting commits
sioner, reported that the $780,
600 worth of non-Federal projects
in the District of Columbia account
ed for the employment of 1,779 per-
sons in June with pay roll OF
$158,78 during that month for 1885,
614 man-hours of labor at prevail
ing wages. The figures were based
on reports of the Bureau of Labor

gram will continue under construc-
tion for another year. All work
must be completed by June 80. 1910
but the program is far ahead of
schedule as a whole.
Commenting on the status of the
current construction program, Col.
Clark called attention to the fact
that freight loadings for the week
ended July % showed an increase
of II per cent above the correspond
ing week in 1898. He attributed this
in part to the orders for P. w. A.
materials. Construction awards for
the last week in July were l3 pee
cent above the previous week and
steel production, he said, had in
creased from 40 per cent capacity
for the first week in July to so per
cent for the week ended August l.

Col. Clark also said P. w. A. dis
bursements in loan and grant pay
ments for the first seven months of
the year totaled 1927 ,248,938 to-
ward construction costs. At the
same time cities and counties put
up approximately 100000 900. This
means. he said, an average of near
ly s1O4,000000 had been released
monthly for material orders to in
dustry and pay rolls at construction
sites.
Employment at P. w. A. construc-
ton sites reached the $4,000 mark
in July. indicating that the 100000
mark will be passed this month.
To date, 2,791 projects have been
completed This leaves 1870 nom
