HAS BEST
GAIN IN
FREIGHT TRAFFIC

A report released by the
Association of American Rail-
roads showed that the state
port of Gulfport led all United
States ports during a r.
month period from July,
1861 to July, 1862 in the per-
centage of increase in freight
car traffic. The report shows
Gulfport increased freight car
traffic into the port by Alb
per cent over the II month
period. Port director Edwin
Stebbins said the favorable
rise in freight car usage re-
suited from the increase in
export activity at the port.

standing of duties of citizenship is
obviously giving registrars individual
ly a power which, as long as they had
it, could not effectively be challenged
by a white or Negro voter who thought
he had not been given a fair deal.
Registrars with such statutory power
could be virtually invulnerable to ques-
ton.
AS to good moral character, courts
never could judicially pin that down
either.

Understandable, But -.


Mississippi's affront is wholly un-
d~erstandable. The South legrtlmately
resents ~intrusions. But no Southern
state should fail to heed laws actuall-
tv. Law in this case was determined
Is years ago.
This is the kind of development
which is hard for many Southerners
to "take.' But it is an excellent ex-
ample of Southern shortsightedness.
It is impossible to believe that there
are not hundreds of Mississippi law-
yers who knew the fundamental facts
of federal rulings governing registra-
ition practices. A political leader may
sincerely feel that, in law, the Justice
Department is wrong. But though he
might so feel, a wise policy obviously
would be to get best legal thought
available before commenting as to
whether such a suit was much, a little,
or not at all out of line.
In this case if Governor Barnett
had used the surely available legal adj
vice of Mississippi lawyers who might
agree with him in resentment but who
also could spell out recorded history
of such cases he might have hesitated
to make irrelevant statements on
filing Of the federal suit.

Mr.. Saxon's own staff members

Commercial Bonks -S
The controller is aware that
commercial banks face increasing
competition from other institu-
tions. Savings and loan associa-
tions, accounting for a mere SIS
billion in savings funds in 1913,
had grabbed off SGT billion by
1860. Credit unions account now
for another So billion. Insurance
concerns and small loan com
panieS slice away other business.
Mr.. Saxon can be counted upon
to strengthen the hand of ma
tional banks in the battle. He has
gone out Of his way recently to
molify State bank officials, with
out much success. The Federal Re-
serve Board, with q say in many
banking matters, seems to be
mounting q counterattack

Pivotal Committees
Thus, Senator Kerr is highly
important in two pivotal commit
tees which spend big money, a
third which raises it and, in
directly, a fourth which appro-
PIRATES it. If that isn't the drivers
seat. it is, at least, a big hand
on the power steering.
To all his jobs, admirers and
critics agree, Senator Kerr brings
the sharp cutting edge Of a keen
intelligence, an exhaustive dill
gence and blood-letting wit. In
these days of highly complicated
legislation, where one bill can run
400 pages, Senator Kerr makes 1t
his business to know even the fine
print. He always does his home
work. He never speaks without
thorough preparation, ana dis
dains Senators who do.

BY TRUMAN TEMPLE

Hours before the japanese
stormed Manila sduring World
War II, Treasury official named
James Joseph Saxon quietly Lit a
fire in an oil drum outside the
city and began burning United
States bank notes.
1t was all in the line Of duty to
prevent the notes from falling
into enemy hands. The Japanese
artillery was ranging so close that
he didn't have time to count how
much went up in smoke, but it
totaled hundreds of thousands Of
dollars.
Last Thursday as Controller Of
the Currency, Mr.. Saxon was busy
warming up the financial scene
again. this time with q contro-
versial report.
The product of q panel Of bank
ers and lawyers chosen by him,
the study proposed sweeping
changes. It would take away some
powers Of another agency, the
Federal Reserve Board. It would
give Mr.. Saxon final say over State
authorities on letting national
banks set UP branches.
And in a score of other ways,
it would loosen what he consid-
ers red tape now hampering the
growth Of the $500 national
banks under his jurisdiction.
Controversial Report
Even before the report was
made public, it began draw
ing fire. State banking officials
privately accused him Of pack
ing the court" in choosing his
committee. They gloomily forecast
new concentration Of Federal
power at the expense Of State
bodies.
