bo one of my expedition. He had been
recommended as a good man and a good
climber nfld had prospected near another
sldo of Mount Blackburn. I might rato
him Vijtli tho least, ho said, and ho would

almost perpendicular mountain; of how flvo
of tho men, when tho topmost peak was
nearly reached, deserted, nnd of how Handy

SENATE PLANNING
REDRAFT OF REVENUE
'BILL PASSED BY HOUSE
General Outline of Administra-
tion Measure to Be Retained,
but Several Important
Changes Expected
TAX ON ' EXPATRIATES
WASHINGTON, July 11. Receiving tho
revenue bill which tho IIouso passed lato
yesterday, tho Senato today planned a com
plete redraft of tho measure Sessions of
tho Flnanco Committee will begin at once,
Chairman Simmons declared.
Though tho general outllno of the bill Is
not to bo fundamentally altered since It is
drafted In nccordanco with Administration
desires tho provisions for tho income and
inheritance taxes and a tariff commission
all will bo altered In detail.
A plnn, for Instance, to tax expatriate
Americans on their American securities Is
jnost popular among Senators,
i Several leader have collected figures
on thonmount of war tax which Americans
who have become connected with BrlttBh
peerages aro obliged to pay on their
American properties. It Is claimed tho
British Government collects nearly JK.000,
000 a year on tho rentals which tho Astors
ono of whom has been honored with a
peerage levy on New York real estate.
Senato lenders say It will bo possible to
tax expatriates, despite their British citizen
ship, by levying on their Incomes at tho
sources.
This measure, however, 1b ono of those
on which Republicans plan a filibuster,
ns a part of their frank purpose to delay
or defeat tho shipping bill. When debato
Bhall have been finished, howovcr, Demo
cratic leaden) expect several Republican
votes for tho measure because of Its tariff
commission proposal and other semi-pro-tcctlve
clauses.
Thlrty-nlno Republicans nnd ono Inde
pendent Kent, of California joined tho
solid Democratic House majority on pass
ing tho bill. Tho House draft "Jumped
ratc3 on incomes, creating Inheritance nnd
munitions taxes and a tariff commission.
Tho new legislation Is expected to ralso
approximately 1210,000,000. This sum will
bo inadequate to meet the hugo budget for
tho fiscal year, so that It will bo necessary
to tako about $70,000,000 from tho general
balance, of tho Treasury . to cover the
deficit.
Tho only Important modifications of the
hill mndo by tho House were tho elimination
of tho special taxes on banks, the striking
out of a clause which mado 'it Impossible
for nn ox-member of Congress to serve on
tho tariff commission, and the rewriting
of tho clause for tho support of tho commis
sion so that tho appropriation shall not be
permanent, but be mado year by year by
tho Commlttco on Appropriations.

GEORGE W.NOllltIS
COMES TO DEFENSE OF
FEDERAL RESERVE ACT
Rejects Conclusions Reached by
Guaranty Trust Company, New
York, in Pamphlet Just
Published
ANSWERS OBJECTIONS
Commenting upon a pamphlet published
by the Guaranty Trust Company, of New
York, on "What the Banks of United States
Think of the Federal Reserve Act," George
W, Norrls, deputy Federal Reserve agent of
the Philadelphia Reserve Bank, said to
day: "While this pamphlet Is entitled "What
tho Banks of the United States Think of tho
Federal Reservo Act,' the title would be
mora accurato and Illuminating It It read!
"What 36 Per Cent, of tho Totnl National
Banks and What 1 Per Cent of tho Total
State Banks and Trust Companies Think
of tho Federal Reservo Act."
It Is to bo noted first, that of the B314 re
plies received, practically ona-thlrd wero
favorable, one-third unfavorable, and one
third noncommittal.
When nn Inquiry such ns this, one, re
questing replies to n large number of ques
tions. Is sent out, It Is altogether llkoly
that n largo proportion of theso Institutions
which aro not favorably disposed toward
tho Federal Reservo system, would take
pains to reply, while, those Institutions
favorablo to the system, or undecided,
would probably pay less nttcntloil- to such
an Inquiry.
"Tho Bccond fact worthy of note Is that
replies wero received from only about ono
third of the national banks and one-sixth
of tho Stato banks. It Is stated that a
'comprehensive canvnro1 wan mndo, but It
Is not stated whether Inquiries wero ad
dressed to all national banks and all Stato
banks.
"Tho third notable fact Is that white the
trust company's report shows tho number
nnd proportion of favorablo, unfavorable
nnd noncommittal replies, as between mo ru
ber and nonmembcr banks, It does not glvo
what Is a moro Important classification,
namely, tho proportion of each character of
roply received from each pf tho two alasscs
of banks. That Is to say, that the propor
tions given are proportions of tho wholo
number of replies of each character received
from tho two classes of banks lumped to
gether. If we calculate tho proportions of
each of tho clnsscs of replica received from
onch of the'two clnsscs of banks separately,
wo got these significant figures:
i Non-mcmbcr
Member tanks, bank.
l'ct. Pet.
Favorablo, 12211 or id Ml or 20,
tlnfavorablo 1(18 or 41) IJS.'i or l!tl
Non-commlttnl 3112 or IS Mil) or 44
2700 2033
"In othor words, while tho noncommittal
replies wero most numerous, tho unfavorable
next, and tho favorablo least numerous,
these results aro renched oply by tho In
clusion of tho replies of tho nonmember
banks. Of the member bnnks tho favorablo
replies nro most numerous, tho proportion
being moro than twlco ns high ns among
tho nonmembcr banks, nnd tho noncommittal
aro tho least numerous.
"Another Interesting featuro is tho fact
that it Is In tho districts where tho mem
ber bnnks havo most freely used their re
servo banks that tho sentiment Is moro fa
vorable. In tho Southern, Western nnd
Central Western districts tho favorablo re
plies outnumber tho unfavorable nearly two
to one. In tho Eastern Central tho division
Is almost even, and It Is only In tho New
England ,and Sllddlo Atlantic districts that
tho unfavorable replies largely predominate.
"Tho trust company states that It be
lieves tho 'business community' to bo Inter
ested In knowing what tho banks think
of this law and tho result of it upon them
selves and 'their community,' but tho wholo
pamphlet deals rather with tho direct ef
fects of tho act upon tho bnnks nnd virtu
ally ignores tho indirect effects upon tho
community In general or the country as
a wholo.
"Coming down to tho 'objections offered
by national banks,' It appears that tho ob
jection most numerously urged Is that In
terest Is not paid on deposits. Consider
ing that the existence of tho Federal Re
servo banks enables each member bank to
loan out at a rato from 2 to 4 per cent,
higher than it would bo allowed by nny
city reservo ngent, a sum of money much
larger than the amount of its deposit with
tho Federal Reserve bank,' It Is little short
of astounding that 903 banks should have
urged this ns an 'objection.'
"Tho next most serlou3 objection Is that
made by 690 banks that they havo had no
dealings with their Federal Reservo bank.
This Is either a reflection on their business
acumen or a trlbuto to their strength. It
Is dlfllcult to seo how It can fairly be
called an 'objection.'
"The third objection Is stated In the
words, 'Dividend Federal Reserve bank
stock unsatisfactory." If 099 member banks
had 'no" dealings and 208 havo had 'few'
dealings with their Federal Reserve banks,
it is not surprising that 621 banks should
find the dividends unsatisfactory.
"Next In order comes the objection, urged
by 593 banks, that it is 'still necessary to
maintain relations with correspondents."
Why Is this nn objection? Why Bhould
member banks not avail themselves of the
facilities of both their Federal Reserve
banks and their correspondent banks? How
would they be any better off with ono string
to their bow than with two?
"It would be tedious to go through the
wholo list of objections. Some are mani
festly political, some captious and others
founded on evident misapprehension. By
many it would be regarded as distinctly en
couraging that such a revolutionary change
In the banking methods of the nation should
have won so many friends In such a short
tlmo, and that the objections urged should
be so trivial."

SEEN ROVER, RUNAWAY DOG?
Boy-Owner Says He's Lean Liko a
Banana
"Has anybody hero seen nover?"
If you happen to live in the vicinity of
,0th and Reed streets you have no doubt
heard theso words chanted many times by
fl.year-old Oscar Herman, of 900 Reed
street whose dog has b.een missing from his
home since last Friday, Oscar and Rover
have known each other for the last seven
years and were Inseparable friends, but as
Oscar tearfully says, "Somebody had to
butt In and spoil the party."
When Oscar was asked the pedigree of
Rover he said, "I don't know what you
mean by pedigree, but If. you want to know
what he looks like I'll tell you. He's long
and lean like a banana, has long ears like
elephant plant leaves, and It Beems like
they're tacked on a long, narrow head. His
eyes look as It he wants to sleep all the
time. Ills body seems too heavy for his
legs, which aro very short. Cheel If you
only eean them you'd wonder how he ever
Btands on them. He Is brown in color."
Nevertheless, there is a standing, offer of
E0 cents for Rover's return.

NO MORE SMALL PARKS
THIS YEAR, SAYS MAYOR
Proposed Expenditures Declared
to Be Beyond Bounds
of Reason
No moro small parks this year Is the final
word of Mayor Smith on tho question of
passing ponding ordinances for open spaces.
This determination was reached when tho
question of expenditures was carefully gone
over with councllmanlc nnanclers and
means that a dozen or moro playground
bills will bo held up with a saving to the
city of several hundred thousand dollars.
After going over the bills, a number ot
which were scheduled for passage next
week, tho Mayor Bald :
"This thing is going too far. There Is no
ono who Is moro favorablo than I am to
ward playgrounds for tho . children nnd
parks for everybody, but this kind of im
provement should bo within reason.
"Thero should be Bomo Bystem which
would prevent the selection or purchase of
ground by the city for playgrounds Irre
spective of conditions where tho slto Is se
lected. Wo find proposed playgrounds and
parks In sections which are not at all
crowded and In some Instances not far from
other parks or open spaces.
"So far as I am concerned, there will be
no now playgrounds or parks established
this year, and tho procedure next year will
depend entirely upon tho clty'B financial
condition nnd tho other Improvements then
necessary."

APPEAL FOR MORE CASH
FOR SOLDIERS' FAMILIES
Members of Relief Committee
Short of Funds to Con
tinue Their Work
The fund ot $8000 raised several weeks
ago for the families of noldlers who went
to tho Mexican border with the National
Guard Is being exhausted, nnd money Is
needed by tho Cltlien Soldiers' Relief Com
mlttco to continue the work.
Two hundred nnd twenty families are on
tho UbIs of tho committee, which means
that nearly 1000 persons must be cared
for. Georgo Wcntivorth Carr, secretary
ot tho committee, said today that the
number of thoso needing assistance was
Increasing.
Tho sum of $40 Is required to keep ench
family for a month, which means that the
commlttco requires $8000 for Its work In
July. It Is expected that part of this will
be raised through tho athletic .entertain
ment nnd concert to be held In Convention
Hnll tho evening of July 20 under - tho
nusplccs of tho United German Singers of
tho Philadelphia Turngemelnde. Secretary
Carr has Issued an appeal to Phltadclphtans
to Bupport tho entertainment
Convention Halt scats about 18,000 per
sons, nnd If tho auditorium Is full It will
be possible to realize all ot the $8000
needed during the next month. Tho price
of admission ranges from 25 cents to $1.
But tho problem of how to caro for tho
families left behind by tho soldiers In the
ton days Intervening before the entertain
ment is worrying tho Citizens' Relief Com
mittee. It Is tho Immediate need of funds
that has caused Secretary Carr to ask for
contributions to tide the committee over the
next ten dnys. Thoso contributions may lie
sent olthcr to Secretary Carr, In tho Halley
Uulldlng; Mayor Smith or Drexcl & Co
Plans nro being formulated for other en
tertainments to raise money for tho relief

assistance from the home relief division of
tho Emergency Aid, which, under tho direc
tion of Mrs. J. Willis Mnrtln and Mrs. John
C. Groomc, Is systematizing tho work of

NATIONAL WOMAN'S PARTY
SOUNDS WARNING TO 0. 0. P..
Demand Clear-Cut Pledgo of Support of
Federal Amendment
Tho National Woman's party announces
that Its "hat Is In tho ring" nnd will remain
thero until tho demand for nn absolutely
plain statement on tho Federal woman suf
frage amendment Is made, either by the
Republican or Democrats.
Mrs. Abby Scott Baker, who has recently
made a tour of the 12 suffrngo States, points
out that the women of these States will ac
cept one thing only ns tho price of their
support of tho Republican party, which H
that It take a clear-cut stand favoring this
amendment. As tho Democratic plank
nmounts to n virtual denial of suffrage, If
tho Republican stand, soon to be nnnounced,
is not favorablo, the Woman's party will,
according to Mrs. Baker, doubtlenn run an
Independent ticket or Join a smaller party
ns a protest
Mrs. Baker said today: '
"As to tho importance of the woman's
vote In tho suffrago States, let me call at
tention to tho fact that In no one of these
States would It- havo required a vote of
moro than 7.8 .per cent, of tho vote cast to
havo reversed tho result. Tho Republican
party cannot secure tho votes ot the 4,000,
000 women of tho West In nny other way
that by adopting tho one plank on which we
Insist tho national enfranchisement ot
women."
