BANKS URGE DEFEAT
OF INTERLOCKING
DIRECTORATE BILL
Clearing House Here Tells
Congress Measure Would
Be a Serious Blow to Fi
nancial Institutions.
Bankers in this city aro urging dqfeat
of Section 8 of the Clayton anti-trust
till, which would prohibit Interlocking
directorates. Tho bill Is now before Con
gress. Urging that this section of tho
bill, as far as It affects banks and trust
companies, be stricken out, telegrams
vero today sent by tho Philadelphia
Clearing House Association to tho chair
. man of tho Judiciary Committees of the
Bcnato and House, Senators Pcnroso and
Oliver and members of the House of Rep
resentatives from Philadelphia.
Attention Is called to tho fact that If
this section Is Incorporated Into law It
will causo an entire rearrangement of
tho directors of many banks and trust
companies, nnd men who havo a wldo
business experience will bo barred from
action as directors, thus causing a serious
blow to bo dealt tho Institutions. At n.
tlmo when the now currency system is"
about to be placed in operation these
men will bo needed morp than ever bfore,
lay tho bankers.
The telegrams, signed by Joseph Moore,
Jr., president of tho Philadelphia Clear
ing Houso Association and of tho National
Hank of Northern Liberties, and Levi I.
Jlue, chairman of tho Clearing Houso
Committee and president of the Phila
delphia National Bank, read as follows:
It la our opinion that If section 8, Clayton
ntl-trust bill, respecting Interlocking direc
tor!!, Is adopted by Congress and becomes a
law, It will deal a serious blow to tho banks
nd trust companies of the larger cities of
tho country, and while doubtless Intended to
ronsero the people's Interests, Is really most
detrimental to those Interests. Tho country Is
about to Inaugurate a now banking system.
Vast changes In banking methods are to take
place, and If there ever was a time In the
history of tho country when the managements
of the banks and trust companies should be
In strong and experienced hands, It Is now.
Tho resources of tho banks nnd trust com
panies belong to tho people. With them they
place their savings and tho managements of
their estates, the beneficiaries of which are
largely women nnd children. Their directors
should bo men of broad vision, wldo experi
ence, sound Judgment nnd In touch with the
commerce and trade of the world. Tho bill
as written will strip these Institutions of
many of tho ablest men on their boards of
directors.
"Wo thereforo most respectfully urge upon
Congress that section 8. of the ClayMa anti
trust bill ns affecting banks and trust com
panies, be stricken out.

GRAIN EXPORTS INCREASE
August-September Records This Year
Better Than in 1013.
Grain exports for August ond September
of this year aro In excess of tho figures
for the same months last year In Bplte of
tho war In Europe, Early next week a
still further Increase will be recorded
when tho British steamship Oaktands
Grange sails with 400,000 bushels of oats,
believed to be the largest cargo of that
commodity ever shipped from this port to
Europe.
Cargoes totaling 1,593,608 Tiushols were
shipped from this port In 20 vessels In
August, 1913. This year but nine ships
sailed with cargoes' of 8M.721 bushels, ow
ing to the Bltimp brought about by the
war. Shipping for a time was virtually
at a standstill and rates became almost
prohibitive. ,,
Since August there has been a notice
able improvement In conditions, and every
day the exports have been Increasing, So
far 13 vessels havo sailed this month, car
rying grain cargoes of 1,151,640 as com
pared to cargoes totaling 1,147,323 bushels
taken from the port In September of 1913

COCAINE FIEND IN CELL
BEGS POLICE FOR DRUG
Young Man, Caught In a Bound
up, Sent to Hospital.
Denied his hourly doses of cocaine,
Jamci Lynch, .who says he comes from
a prominent family on Allegheny avenue
ana was once going to study for tho mln
,K'n ,s da"Rerously ill n hte coll at
the Tenth and JJuttonwood streets polico
station, whore ho Is held by Magistrate

dler. Young Lynch was arrested early this
morning at Eleventh and Vine streets
during a round-up of drug sellers by
Special Ofllcers Haines and Wceseckcr.
Ho will bo fatten to a hospital today nnd
treated for the drug habit.
Lynch had a good-sized package of co
calno hidden under an elastic arm band
when ho was searched at tho polico sta
tion. Ho waa In his shirt sleoves, and It
Is believed he sold hlB coat to buy the
drug. Vlco squad ofllcers have been
wntchlng Lynch for several weeks In the
belief that ho was distributing drugs to
Tenderloin habitues.
Lynch told tho polico that he has been
using drugs for two years. Ho began
just after he wns graduated from High
School. Ho was In a Chinese restaurant
In tho Tenderloin one night, ho said, when
a girl persuaded him to try snimng co
caine. A month latcr,ho wns a confirmed drug
user. Eight months ago he was arrested
by Special Officer Haines, who made the1
nrrc'st this morning. This was Just after
ho had burled his young wife. Since then
tho drug's Inroads havo been so marked
that Haines hardly ecognized tho boy
when he arretted him.
The Lynch boy was In a pltlablo con
dition when he was arraigned this morn
ing before Magistrate Belcher. As soon
as his case was disposed of ho began bog
iglng the polico for cocalno. Arrange
ments wore made to take him to tho

BOARD OF VIEWERS
10th

and 15th
Section Bc-
Property in
Wards,
tween 1 9th and 22d Streets,
Will Be Considered.
The Board of Viewers will shortly be
gin hearings, under an ordinance ap
proved July, 2, "to authorize, tho opening
of tho unopened portions of tho Parkway
between 39th street arid 22d street."
Under the law three months' notice waB
served on owners of property on July 5,
tho damages to be settled by the viewers,
nftor evidence has been presented by both
sides, or falling to agree, there Is an ap
peal to th courts.
In tho portion of tho 10f and 15th Wards
covered by this ordinance, there aro ap
proximately 2(0 properties. For several
years, tho city, through a committee, of
which tho Mayor Is chairman, has been
purchasing property from any Iwnors will
ing to soil, at 10 per cent, above tho as
sessed value of tho year 1909. Why that
year was chosen Is a mystery to many,
as assessments were afterwards Increased.
In this way, out of the 200 properties,
tho city has taken title to about one-half,
leaving approximately 100 properties to
be considered, and a proper price paid to
tho owners of samo.
PROPERTIES ON PARKWAY LINE.
As tho plan before the Board of -Viewers
is not yet obtainable, only an esti
mated list of properties can be given, tho
northwest boundary being the southeast
line of tho Pnrkway as laid out, and tho
southwest lino of this proceeding runs
along tho south line of 230 West Logan
square, and 237 North 20th street, then in
a diagonal lino to Wood street, taking in
tho northeast corner and the'neo to tho
north line of 403 North 22d street, "where

Properties to be acquired show an ap

and represent a value of from $!00,M)0 to
$300,000. Eventually, thero will be proba
bly seven more properties taken on-"West
Logan Square to bring tho south line
straight to the west sldo of the street.
They will Include Nos. 218-220-222-221-220-22S-230
and 232, tho total assessment for
this year being $199,000 and their value
not far from $250,000. This, however, will
not be taken under tho present notice, but
will como up at some future date.
OWNERS ASK PROMPT ACTION.
The attitude of owners of property. In
cluded within the lines of the Parkway as
plotted. Is that of being perfectly willing
to accept a fair price for their property,
but they ask prompt action. On October
5 tho city of Philadelphia becomes owner,
and the taking is nn easement made fast,
which has really existed ever since tho
lines wero put upon the city plan.
Lo&ses of rent and low rental, because
properties could not bo Improved, are
total, ns under the law such cannot be
considered any more than loss of business.
To show tho hardship of delay caused
by the City taking property so long
ahead of payment only this week the
estnto of Theodore L. Harrison, Jr., were
restrained by a decision of Judge Dick
inson In the United States District Court
from expending $150,000 in Improving
properties Nos. 1403-5-7 Filbert street in
tho eastern end of tho Parkway. A
proper return on the value of the prop
erty could not bo realized in present con
dition. The Court held that the cost of
such Improvement on a paper street
coutd not be recovered when the physical
taking occurs.
Tho law, as It stands on the statute
books, works a great deal of hardship.
No leases can be made, and tho best
that owners can do Is to get what rent
they can with the least possible ex
pcndlttire and resist nil appeals to keep
tho property up, or Improve it. The re
sult Is too well known. Rents go lower
and lower and when vacated by old ten
ants, property remains Idle, while tajtep
and loss of Interest go on, the ownership
becoming nn expense Instead of a source
of Income.
In the present proceeding, a report Is
asked bv the Couit "at tho January ses
sions," 1013. It Is believed In real estate
circles prompt hearings will begin' as soon
as the plan appears.
Notes of the stiiebt.
ii wou'd be a boon to builders and real
estate, brokers If the banks would extend
a little more liberality In the matter of
loans to building societies, one of .ho es
sentials In realty home development.
Transfers this wick arc widely distrib
uted. There are not, perhaps, as many
as usual, but It must be remembered we
nro between seasons. West Philadelphia
makes a good showing, nnd several Indus
trial propositions have obtained locations.
There Is little change In tho mortgngo
position. Trust companies are ready for
all Ilrst-class offers and at ruling rates.

Typical Soldiers of
Warring Nations
In Sunday's- Intaglio
Soldier types of the warring nations, with a page
of Great Britain's famous Indian commands, are
shown at close range in Sunday's Intaglio. There
are page-wide panoramas of the Knights Templars'
recent peace exercises on Belmont Plateau, and
photos of Germany's war lords and American treaty
advocates. Pages, too, of gay county fair scenes,
beautiful studio poses, artistic bed-room settings
and prominent women contributors to the season's
social entertainment.
Because of Its wealth of authentic gridiron in
formation, the Sports Magazine has been converted
into a special football number without slighting other
sporting activities. Among its articles on the possi
bilities of new football are special contributions by
Parke H. Davis, Glenn Warner, R. W. Maxwell and
Geo. E. McLinn. Wm. H. Rocap discusses "Who
Was America's Greatest Lightweight," and Paul W,
Gibbon tells of Philadelphia's new star in the tennis
firmament. "Ty" Cobb discloses the object of his
personal interview with Connie Mack.
