The Council lat night adopted the report of a special commiltr favoring lh sale of the site of the old filtering plant for I'O.ej to the llawlcy Pulp Paper Company, which desired the land aa a part of the site for a lioo.- addition to the plant. The report of the committee, recom mended Ihe sale on the condition that seven restrictions were mad which fully protect th Interests of the city. In effect, they provide that the liawiey mill will gtv the city a perpetual right for room for two pump, a dynamo and other machinery In the new building or In a concrete structure lo bo ball! under Main street al the eapans of th company; thai ihe com pany shall giv th city right of way for additional pipelines across th pres ent mill site and that the deed shall be held In escrow until the new plant la eompte4.

Its place of bualncss will be Washington, l. C. Can a try Divided Into Districts. "For convenience In handling loans, the country will be divided Into 1! or more distrlcla. In each of which a Fed eral land bank will be locatea. eacn hank with a csDltal stock of 11.000.000. Hooks will be opened to the public for subscription to this atock. but In the event tba stock Is not an suoscriucu within a stated period, the Govern ment will aubscribe the remainder of tha slock, ao that each bank will have at the beginning an avallablo capital of I1.000.0U0. -in each of tha district there will be seversl local organisation similar to those thst have been tried out ana found practicable In Kurope, but modi fied to meet American conditions. These local organlsationa will be di vided Into three classes, to be known as Division A. Division B and Dlvl -IXvlsion A will Include the organi sations of limited Ilsbllity. and the op erations for securing loans In tnis ai vision will ba somewhat as follows: "A number of Individuals, not less than 10. who are owner of farm and intend to become borrowers, will meet snd perfect a prellmlnsry organisation and arp'T to the Federal land bank of their district for a cnarter. Baak Mak Iavestlgatloa. Investigstlon will be made by Ihe bank, and If condition are found sst lfctory. a charter wlil be Issued and the local organisation will then elect a eecrelary-treaaurer. wno win oe come Its eaecutlve officer, and uch other ot fleers as may be necessary. Applications will b made on blanks to ba furnished by the Federal land bank for loana In an amount not ex ceeding In any case one-half of the appraised value of the land of each farmer. Upon the receipt of thee ap plications an appraisement of the land will ba made, taking Into considera tion the value of the land without Im provement. II assessed valuation for tha past three years, and a statement aa to tba earnings from the land dur ing th period of at least three years. The appraisement will be made by three prrtona, on appointed by the local association, one by th Federal land barfk of that district and one by Ibe farm land commissioner, to deter mine the valu or th farm tor pur pose of loana under tb act. Uih Made far Develepmeat. T,oaas will be made for purpose of developing the farm or for Improving Its output, which will Include drainage, clearing, tiling, fencing, aultable bulld Inca. the purchase of atock. etc. Ioan will be limited to per cent, di me valu of tbe farm aa ascertained by the appraisement and farmers will be urged lo borrow only what can be profitably used at thd time. One loan to a farmer will not exhaust the limn of hi borrowing capacity: ubeouent loan can be negotiated up to tbe So per cent limit- Thore are now on the farm of tb Lolled elate aome tl (00.000.000 worth of mortgages. Un der tbe bill thess can be refunded up to the SO per cent limit. "When the appraiser hare made their return 4o tn district Federal Land Bank am", mortgage are for warded through the local association by tha farmers desiring to borrow, the district land bank, on approval of the mortgages held by them, will send to the local association the amount of money applied for and approved, which th seeretary-treaaurc r will deliver to th several applicants. Boa da t Be leaned. "Loans will be made tn th first In stance from the capital stock of the district land banks, but when mort gage of considerable amounts, aay to th amount ot HOO.OOv. bav been accu mulated by an7 district land bank, tbey will Indorse and turn them over to a reserv agent designated by the farm commissioner, who will forward a atatement of tha facta regarding tbe mortgages to the appraisers, with such other Information aa the Federal Land Cotnmlsetoner may require, and on bla approval of th same there a ill be Is sued aa'sUuil the tuuxttfaxes aa equal C0M1 DESERTS NORTH amount of bond, wblch will be sold In th market to the Investing public and the proceed will be deposited In the district land bank. The amount of mortgage In th hand of the several district land banks and the amount of bonds outstanding against them will be practically tha same at. any time. "he bond will bear 4 per cent In terest per annum and there will be provided also a charge of 1 per cen eacn year lor amortization purposes for paying oil mortgages gradually. The rate of Interest in the mortgage win include these two Items and a fur ther charge of a small amount to pay operatic cxpensex. What that amount win be ba not been definitely deter mined. Bondholder to Be Secured. "Tba security to tha bondholder or to the purchaser of bond tor the pay ment of tbe semi-annual interest and the principal sum of the bonds as they become due will be the capital stock, surplus and other property of tha dis trlct land bank upon whose request the bond were Issued and a Joint and equal liability on the part of each of tbe other 1 land banks, together with the mortgagea held by the banks u hen tbe plan is finally worked out It la believed that these bonds will furnish one of the most attractlce se curiUes, If not th most attractive on the American market. Personally, added Mr. Hawley. "1 am Inclined to believe that aome provision should be included in the bill whereby any semi annual Interest coupons or matured bonds, which are not promptly paid. shall be taken up by the Treasurer of tne Lnlted elates and the amounts col lected by the Treasurer from the funds of th district land bank. , "In case any farmer defaults In the payment of interest or principle of mortgage when due. the Federal land bsnk will have the usual authority to proceed for the collection of such pay-. menis. Joint Liability Provided Far. "Under Division B there will be pro vision for unlimited liability on the part of borrowers. Under Division A each farmer Is liable only for his own mortgage. But under Division B all the farmera in a local organization will be liable for the mortgages of all other farmer in the association. This ar rangement will be purely voluntary on the part of the farmers, who will des ignate among themselves who can en ter their association. This form of co-operation has proved popular in Kurope and 1 to be included In the bill In order to provide for this kind of aasoclation If localities ao desire. It Is believed by many that bonds Is sued on mortgages In Claas B will aell at a rate tbat will be an advantage to tne larmers. The plan of ODeratlon under Division B In other respects will ba similar to that under Division A. "Taking tha experience of aavlngs bsnks which keep In cash 6 per cent or their outstanding loans, the Federal district land banks will be authorized to issue bonds to the extent of 20 times their capital and surplus, after making proper deductions for a reserve. Plan B la modeled after the Landschaften banks of Germany. "Also, each farmer who Is an appli cant for a loan under divisions A and B will take atock in the Federal Land Bank to the extent of S per cent of the loan, and the money received for thia stork on the basis of 20 to 1 will fur nish the basis for each loan when tbe system gets Into general operation. Joint Stack Baak Contemplated. "Division C will provide for Joint stock bank, and the capital of each wlil b subscribed by private enter prise, but tt will be under Government supervision. The detail of this have not yet been worked out, but it will undoubtedly be based on the principle of similar bank in Europe, which ' have been very successful. There will be two further provisions contained In the bill, one an arrange ment under which a person wishing to acquire a farm will have opportuni ty to borrow for that purpose. The other provision will be one under which farmers will be furnished with per sonal credit for short-term loans. This a proving tho most difficult problem the whole plan of rural credits and A N OLD custom of The Portland each suc ceeding Yuletide is to prepare a sumptu ous Christmas Dinner for its guests. Whole families come here on Christmas Day to partake of the good cheer;, friend sits down with friend and the stranger within our portals is made to feel at home. Never before such a Christmas Dinner as the one we are already beginning to prepare for this Christ mas Day the chef has given us his word! We invite you. The feast will be served in both dining-rooms; plates will be $1.25, and the service will continue from five-thirty to eight. The hotel orchestra will play. The Portland's Christmas Tree will be in the cen ter of the grill room fragrant with the odors of the forest, bright with tiny stars that gleam in welcome. You may make table reservations now by calling Mr. Ober or the hotel office. During the next two weeks of intensified shopping you'll find delightful refreshment at the Portland Club Luncheons, served from 12 to 2, and the Afternoon Teas, served from 3:30 to 6. Table reservations for New Year's Eve are now being made. The Portland Hotel Geo. C. Ober, Manager the detail have not yet been agreed upon." Representative Hawley is in lavor 01 the most liberal terms that can be made, consistent with safety, and will ndeavor to secure some modifications of the proposed bill. Mr. Hawley's ex perience of IS years as a bond buyer for the surplus and reserve funds of the Pacific Jurisdiction of the Wood men of the World, during which time many millions of bonds have been bought, is being used by the Joint com mittee quite freely in determining the character and conditions of sales ot tne bonds in order to make them attract ive to investors. The members of the committee have commented very fa vorably upon the information he has given them. The Joint committee on rural credits will submit its bill to each house of Congress before January 1, with a re port giving an explanation of the pur poses and contents of the bill. It will then be printed, and be referred to the banking and currency committees of each house, these committees hav ing Jurisdiction over the subject mat ter, unless It is found that the Joint committee, under the rules and the pe culiar conditions of its creation, has authority to act, in lieu of the regu lar committees of the Senate and House.
