same from her. Each day go back to get 'em, and each day she re- ports the chief hasn't made up his mind about me yet, and am I kick ing? Tonight I'm going to see how naked a lady can get in public ct the theater. Tomorrow I'm going to the races.
 Chief Can't Agree
 I've made c deal with e restau- rant to supply me with what the French call nervous coffee; that means the genuine article which keeps you awake ct night. I'm still reducing so l don't mind much the size of the meals get. The wineis good, the women are nice to look at, and the songs are all right, too.
 Chief, there's no hurry about that passport.
 My only problem concerns the cake of soap l brought from Lon- don. The maid ct the Hotel des Etats Unis uses it to wash my shirts, and I don't think she rinsea them well because they smell ot verbena. Then she brings my soap to my room and 1 use it to wish myself. This double life for the cake of coap is like burning candle at both ends. It's getting thin. The maid says when 1t wears out com pletely she can continue my laun- dering (she does 1t daily) with my shaving cream.
 There is no more shaving cream to buy in Paris than there is soap The maid says the choice is mine Would I rather wear whiskers or dirty shirts?
 And now, if you will excuse me I've got to buy a glass of win blant at the cafe and spend the rest of the afternoon sitting in the sur waiting for the chief to make hii decision. This is known as work l get paid for 1t. I hope I don't wake up. Or the chief, either.

Oppose Reductions
In Loan Interest

"The attempG to legislate a
cut in the small loan interest
rate to two percent threatens
to nullify the small loan law
and is an open invitation to high
rate loan sharks to return to
Massachusetts,, G, Elmer John
son, president of the Massachu-
sets Association of Small Loan
Companies, declared last Sun
day during the course of a talk
to members of the Consumer
Credit Institute of Boston.
Under the present Massach-
uSetts Small Loan Law. the
Bank Commissioner has full
power to reduce the maximum
rate at any time on the basis
Of facts and figures in his pos
session. No legislation is, there
fore, necessary at this or any
other time to adjust rates.
Acting under this authority,
the Bank Commissioner fixed
rates in 1887 at 3 percent per
month on the unpaid principle
balance on loans up to $3.50 and
2 percent on loans from $3.50 to
$500.
ON February IS, 1914, the
Bank Commissioner held a hear
ing as to a further reduction
and at the conclusion of that
hearing said, I am not going to
reduce rates at the present
time
