HARDING AND BYRNES j
JUMP INTO DISPUTE
Over Federal Reserve Policy?
Board Chief Angry?Carrying
Large Loans.
Washington. Dec. 8.?The congressional
joint committee hearing on the
agricultural situation last week developed
into a dispute at times quite
heated, between Governor Harding
of the Federal Reserve Board and
members of congress.
"Mr. Chairman, what is the purpose
of this hearing?" Governor
Harding finally demanded, while he
questioned Representative Byrnes,
Democrat, of South Carolina. "Is the
Federal Reserve Board on trial; am I
on trial here?" he questioned, declaring
he has been a target for "all
kinds of abuse."
Representative Byrnes said he
meant no reflection on Governor
Hardin g.
Circulars issued by the regional reserve
bank of Richmond, Va., to
member banks, and which Mr. Byrne
was attempting to show had resulted
in rigid restriction of farmers' credits,
were under discussion. Governor
Harding said such circulars we're
not submitted to the board until
printed, when they were looked over
and attention of the issuing regional
banks called to anything the board
deemed unwise.
Not a Central Bank.
The board, he added, was not a
central bank.
Senator Elect Heflin, Alabama,
asked Governor Harding if the lawmakers
could issue a statement to the
public as understanding his testimony
to be that the reserve board
was favorable to banks extending all
the credit possible to farmers.

to issue its own statement." Governor
Harding replied.
Approving efforts of the Richmond
bank to restrict loans for non-essential
purposes in 1019. Governor
Harding said:
"I know some banks in South Carolina
had been carrying large loans on
cotton since 1917, in the face of an
active market."
Holding such cotton then, he added,
on reserve bank funds was "plainly
speculating."
Houston Sees Nothing
Secretary Houston, who preceeded
Governor Harding, strongly opposed
projects to rivive war finnance corporation
for purpose of financing sales
abroad of surplus farm products.
Present price declines were due to
readjustments following war, he said,
and he saw no solution for the problem
although the treasury department
had voted more thought to this
than to any other subject for the last
two months.
Answering the charge of profiteering
on the part of the reserve banks
Governor Harding, said they had
earned 6.9 per cent on their capital
stock of $100,000,000 and the reserve
balances of the banks amounting to
J$l,800,000,000.
Doubt that exports could be in - i
creased unless some way was found
for increasing Europe's buying power
and ability to furnish requisite securities
was expressed by Secretary
Houston. He did not see, he added
how much relief could be xpected at
this time in that way. He had no
doubt, Mr Houston said, that the war
change corporation would "function"
should Congress recreate it, but he
added:
"T believe it would be agaiist the
public interest."

SAYS NO DANGER
PEACE IN GERMANY
t
Foreign Editor of Paris Paper
Describes Conditions
Across the Rhine.
Paris.?"Germany today does not
endanger peace," writes Jean Her'
betts, foreign editor of Le Temps, in
! in ariiole devoted to both the military
and economic conditions across
the Rhine. M. Herbette has been
traveling through Germany for some
cime, gathering material. ?
"The most competent persons,
speaking Tor the Allies," he continues,
' affirm that Gernulny is materially
incapable of commencing a great war
within a goodly number of years."
Disarmament, so far as artillery is
concerned, he says, is proceeding satisfactorily.
"The number of cannon
de'iverod is in the neighborhood of
2S,000 and about six-sevenths now
have been destroyed. On the other s
hand Germany is far from having sur ;
rendered enough rifles (hardly 2,000- i
000) and machine guns." Disarming !
of the civil population, now going on, I
is expected to yield better results.
Disarming of the German navy by J
the British also is in progress, "and
is being carried on with exceptionable !
vigor." i
"In addition to all this," comments J
M. Herbette, "the prestige of the mili
tary has fallen unbelievably low beyond
the Rhine." Organizations of
former officers, he says, are beingformed
constantly and Germans, if
they wished war, would find officers
to lead them but, except in Bavaria
and Possibly East Prussia these associations.
are isolated and grc wing
rusty."
To illustrate how the military
spirit persists he tells of a young j
lieutenant he knows who nuts on his i
uniform and wears all his decorations |
at breakfast?but who does not appear
in uniform in public.
"The masses of workers," he adds,
"suffered too greatly during the wai
either at the front or by the privations
behind the lines not to destest
the military regime, which, in return
for all their sacrifices, brought only a
disaster without parallel. One can
pay without exaggeration that the,
population of the industrial regions
is profoundly anti-militarist.
"Germany has, then, neither the
material nor the morale required for '
a vast offensive. She could only un- j
dertake upon occasion small military
operations upon her eastern and
southeastern frontiers. But her western
neighbors would stop her quickly
and she knows it.
"in the last analysis, the peace of
Europe depends only upon the allies."

PHOSPHATES COT
BY A NEW PROCESS
Rock Burned Instead of Being
Dissolved in Sul' phuric
Acid.
Washington, Dec 8. ? Fertilizer
people in the South are greatly interested
in the statement of the United
biates Department of Agriculture
that "what may prove to be a revolutionary
development in the fertilizer
industry of the world has been reached
here." This comes about by reason
of Jhe solving of the problem of extracting
phosphoric acid from phosphate
rock by heating mixtures of
this mineral and coke to a melting
temperature in a fuel-fed furnace.
The new process has been worked out
on an approximately commercial
basis at the experimental station at
Arlington, Va.
The phosphate used for fertilizer
in the United States comes largely
from deposits of the rock in Florida.
There are also large deposits in both
Tennessee and in South Carolina,
where the rock was first exploited
for this purpose. The established
method for producting soluble phosphate
has consisted in treating the
rock with sulphric acid. In practice,
a quantity of sulphuric acid equal to
the quantity of the rock is used, and
the resulting product, which is known
as acid phosphate, contains only one
half the percentage of phosphoric
acid contained in the rock fiom
which it was derived. The elaborate
?
aiiu ati feu 11^ process now
used in preparing phosphate rock for
treatment with sulphuric acid often
results in the loss of two-thirds of
tne rock, and it was with a view to
saving this large waste of phosphate
that the new process was evolved.
While the actual cost of the new
process in a large industrial plant is
difficult to estimate with accuracy, it
was found that the fuel consumption
was only about fifteen per cent of the
value of the product, while with the
sulphuric acid process the cost was
seldom below 22 per cent. It is believed
that the new process will prove
of the utmost importance to the fertilizer
industry'and to the farmers
who are compelled to use a constantly
increasing amount of commercial
fertilizer.
BELIEVE SABBATH OF
BABYLONIAN Mi
Dr. Albert T. Clay, curator of the
Babylonian Seminary at Yale University,
says in "Miscellaneous Inscriptions
in the Yale Babylonian
Collection:"
"In a large archive of temple
documents in the Yale collection, discovered
at Warka, the ancient city
of Ivrech, there is found a group of
twenty-three tablets which contain
monthly receipts of sheep, which
were apparently intended for temple
service. I
"he important feature of these
lists (tablets) seem to be the item
following certain days of the month, ,
usually the 7th, 14t*h, 21st and 28th,
which reads 1 hl-it-pi?'one offering.'
The writer does not know of any
other occurrence of the word hitpi in
the cuneiform language, but it is
probably the same as a word found
in an A ramie inscription on an oblong
vessel used for libation purposes,
discovered in the Serapaeum
at Memphis.
"The word has been read hot pi,
and is translated 'offering' and is
regarded as an Egyptian loan word.
Since the inscription is Aramic, although
found in Egypt, it is not improbable
that the hitpi of these texts
is the same. This may seem somewhat
precarious, yet .it is a natural
inference, for the word also seems to
mean 'offering* or 'sacrifice.'
"In no instnee," Dr. Clay points
out, "does it (the offering) follow
this periodical seventh day. There
can be but little doubt that the
regularly appointed time for the of
iering was on tne 7th, 14th, 21st and
28th (lays; but it was occasionally
made upon a previous day. As is
well known, the Sabbath among the
Hebrews at the "present time begins
shortly after sunset on the sixth
dav."
The number of days in the month,
he adds, do not seem to have had
anv bearing upon these variations.
"These tablets, with this interesting
phenomenon, furnish the first actual
observance of anything that
suggests the existence of a parallel
to the Sabbath in Babylonia, and
has an important bearing upon the
question, which has been frequently
discussed, as to whether the Babylonians
did observe such day. Some
hold th*?t the Hebrew Sabbath had
its oVigin in Babylonia and others
that the observance of such a sacred
occasion was carried into the country
by Semites from the west."
In another book, "Amurru, the
Home of the Somites," Clay goes
into this subject a little more deeply.
It is undoubted (that he believes in a
Babylonian origin of our Sabbnth
dayN since he shows by this collec????????
