"The Fighting Shepherdess,'' which appears at the opera house : Monday, is a dramatic story of life ] in the picturesque western sheep i country.

( ; LOANS ON COTTON NOT BEING CALLED ! I I i i Banking Laws Clear?Board Power- i less to Restrict Loans to Colton i in Transit. The State. Washington, . 1). C., Au<r. 0.?Ke-1 cently the department of agriculture addressed a letter to Gov. W. P. (I. Harding of the federal reserve board in which certain reports which had reached the department were called to his attention. These reports indicated that, due to an existing financial stringency, stocks of cotton in the South were being forced on the market at a sacrifice in price, that grave fears were entertained by some business men regarding the prospect for fall for the gradual movement of j the cotton crop, and that it was i thought by some cotton dealers that ? e i i ; a ruling or other torm 01 instruction from the federal reserve board, which limited loans on cotton to that only which was in process of shipment, was the fundamental cause of the depressed condition of the market and of the unfavorable prospect for the future. To this communication reply was made by Governor Harding under date of July 1(5, which is self-explanatory and is quoted in part below: > j "I acknowledge receipt of your " -i 'II- * J Jotter oj rnc i^tn maiam, m J you refer to the pressure on south>: ern markets of large stocks of low > grade cotton. You say 'it was stated : to a representative of this depart' j mcnt that the federal reserve board 1 has issued instructions to member banks not to make loans on cotton unless shipping instructions therefor were shown the bank?in other words that member banks were forbidden to finance cotton unless it has been i j already sold for prompt shipment/ Beyond Board's Power.

State, banks which are members retain an-. der the provisions of section 0 of the ! federal reserve act, all of the powers, derived from their state cha fers and j continue to be subject to the super-! vision of their respective sii.l? bank- j ;n? departments. "The board has not been advised 1 of anv circulars issuerl !-v the federal! reserve banks in the cotton growing districts giving advice to member! banks as to what loans they should J make or decline to make, and liie; board would request that you Hsi'j your repi'esentative who has given J you ihe information convoyed in j your letter to me to transmit such circular, if any are in existence, j or else to state how he received his j -nn fn ilio nllpj'od advice I 1111.V1 KlCiVIVII M.J w\/ v<tv ?.. _ j to member banks. j .<# I\7ore Libera!

"The accumulation of low trade! * cotton is due in pari to the difticulty j in making financial arrangements necessary to sell it to the mills in the Central European countries, which have always been the princi-! ->al consumers of low ??radc cottons. I i The member banks in the South no ! dcubt feel -reluctant to carry too; large a volume of loarrs on collateral \ which is not readily salable. "You say that 'prior to the enact- j :ncnt of the federal reserve act there | were independent banks in the cot-; ton belt which made it a practice to j lend on cotton as collateral' and that] 'most of these banks are now members of the federal reserve system and their policy as to loans is largely determined by regulations of the | federal reserve board.' "As a result of the changes in the * banking law made by the federal-re-j serve act the lending power of all ; banks has been greatly increased! since 1914. The banks in the cot-! ton belt, in cases where they are not; over loaded in other directions, can j make much larger loans on cotton > this fa!! than ever before. To what! i i extent , however, these banks will be1 able to rediscount at the federal rc- ! serve banks I am unable to say. See-' I lion 4 of the federal reserve act re- i quires the board of directors a j federal reserve bank to administer; the affairs of the bank 'fairly and j impartially and without discrimina- i lien in favor of or against any mem-1 ber bank or banks' and that the said j I board 'shall, subject to the provisions i ; of law and the orders of the federal 1 ' reserve board extend to each member | bank such discounts, advancements i and accommodations as may be safe- j | ly and reasonably made with due re- j 1 jrard for the claims and demands of j ! other member bank." I feel sure, I i however, that the federal reserve 1 banks will do all that can reasonably ' be expected of them to aid in the orj derly marketing of the cotton crop."! i J NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEMENT; Notice is hereby given that the un-1 ; dersigned will make final settlement J i of the estate of John C.
