July 23, 1 1914, Colonel i Roosevelt,
then active in state politics, charged
Barnes with being "a full-fledged

WAVE OF PROSPERITY
PREDICTED BY HEAD
OF RESERVE BANKS
(Continued From Page One.)
Portland Clearing House association
to do them the honors. They were es
corted to the Arlington club for break
fast and after a rest were taken on
an automobile tour of the city.
in spite of the fact that Mr. Hamlin
manages, probably more of other peo
ple's money than any other single
banker, he Is far from the conven
tional type of financier. In the seclu
sion of the club 'this morning he
hauled a black pip from his grip and
put his feet up. When he had become
comfortable, he said he could not es
timate the enormous volume of pros
perity that the United States is about
to enter upon. One reason for his trip
to, tho northwest was to find out how
much it is to participate. He believes
no section will feel th after-th-war
lmpuls more powerfully -than Oregon,
Washington and Idaho.
"We keep in daily Intimate touch
with the commercial conditions of the
country," said Mr. Hamlin. "We know
through definite, concrete evidences,
that conditions are on tne up mm
Ther is no speculation or guesswork
about it. This country even now is
the great financial power of the world
and there Is practically no limit to
what will come."
ZftUnbar Trade to Boom.
"Tho lumber trad is going to
boom. That we know, not only from
the fact that the world needs lumber
now, but because of the necessary re
construction of Europe after the Waf
and the subsequent more intensive de
velopment of our own industries to
meet the new demands. There is no
denying the fact that the business will
be war business, but that should not
matter, so long as it is business.'
What the federal reserve bank is
designed to accomplish, Mr, Hamlin
said, is to afford an every-day bank
ing system that will benefit every
country merchant as well as the
banker.
"From having the worst financial
system in the whole world, w now
nav the best," Mr. Hamlin declared

Formerly, as soon as a bank had ' PYS ln " abUlty t0 gtt 0ver th3
loaned out what money it had, there
was no more and credit would stop.
Under the new system, that is where
the principle of credit begins. Th
banks can merely call on th federal
reserve bank, securing money on notes
and continue making advances to car
ry on business. By that means, every
man has a chance, in bad times as
well as in good.
System Advantageous.

If - necessary, drastic steps will be
ordered.
With the state board of arbitration

of the things leading up to the strike

Mr. Hamlin marveled today at the
growth of Portland. It has been 81
years since he was here beforejust
after the time Of the big flood. Port
land then had barely 60,000 people.
That Portland is destined to grow even
beyond the proportion of growth it
has enjoyed during this 21 year period,
he was confident. The effect of the
Panama canal, the Alaska railroad, the
Jew trade openings with the orient,
sV11 in the development
of this city. The northwest is bound
to profit more than any other section
of the Country, he said," and the de
velopment of the untold resources will
make the cities big and prosperous.
wee. Panels Entbuslastlo,
Mr. Perreh, as Chairman of th board
of th twelfth reserve district, stands
In the same relative position to the
San Francisco bank as does Mr. Ham
lin to th entire system. He spoil en-
! thueiaatically of th cordiality With
which the bankers were welcoming the
reserve system and saw opportunities
for wider use of the reserve bank.
"This is a wonderful territory," he
said. "Th member banks of the
twelfth district have resources of
$600,000,000, not counting th state
banks and other banks not members,
which will make as much more. So
you see, with banks exceeding $1,000,
000,000 of wealth, an enormous influ
ence is available. The reserve bank is

"If the engine were running without
the clutch thrown in you couldn't tell
whether you were on an up grade or a
down grade. That's the federal reserve
bank the engine on the automobile."

were scheduled to start south on the

M'GETIAN;S SKETCH,
'THE WK-SAVER HAS
TRIAL PERFORMANCE
Mary Edgett Baker and Wal
ter Gilbert Rehearse New
Playlet to Be Seen1 Here,
"Th Wifa-fiaver" is th nam of a
one-act playlet, written by j Frank J.
MoQettigan. Portland ' newspaper and
theatrical man.' which had a private
try-out this morning in . the hands of
Mary Edgett Baker and Walter Gil
bert, late of the Baker players, who
hav been presenting th sketch "Even
Up," at the Empress this week.
Mr. McQettlgan'a playlet seems to
possess the elements for dramatio ffuc
cess. The acUon it rapid,! time 12
minutes, th lines clever without
strain, and the surprise elmnt strong,
so that the climax . comes when it
hould, " with th "bang-' : so much
sought after by playrlghts and pro
ducers. There is a well defined moral,
presented with no appeal to maudlin
sentimentality. i i
The story is that of a young real
estate broker who neglects , his wife
and baby for another man's Wife. He
hires what be supposes is a deaf and
dumb stenographer. Who takes dicta
tion by Up reading. H is pleased
with this convenient arrangement and
in the preaenc of new stenographer
makes an appointment with his affin
ity by telephone. I I
Both he and the audience learn at
the same time that the stenographer
la not deaf and dumb, but that . Sh
is a professional j! -wife-saver," the
president of the fWomen's protective
league. . Sh scares the affinity by
telephone so that! sh refuses to see
the real estate rrtfui again, thinking
that his wife knows ail. H thinks
so, too, and is f rantio until the stenog
rapher tells him j otherwise. Instead
of going to th beach to meet th af
finity, he goes joyously horn to his
wife and baby, having paid the wife'
saver $100 for her professional serv
ices. . - 'i
Miss Baker and Mr. Gilbert will pre
sent the playlet as an added attrac
tion at the Empress next week, begin
ning Monday, and; may take it on th
road later. j
