KNOX President, American Bankers Assocto* tlon Th« Federal Reserve situation is the paramount problem before American banking today- The time is approach ing when it will be necessary for the nation to consider t question of chartering t h e Federal Reserve Banks. Federal Reserve System •erred. It is one of the scientific banking systems In the world. During the last ten years. through all the stress of war. Inflation, depression and revival. It served this country a« no country was ever served by a banking Bystem. We know that without it our nation wouM have bad a financial disaster far more devaaat- Ing than any that ever assailed It. While we have this groat loyahy and obligation to the System, we must recognise that among its friends there has risen serious controversy over many matters of detail. There are many demands for change In the methods of its management and In de tails of Its operation. Where these demands represent broadly the great est good of the greatest number we should support them. Where they represent merely narrow, diverse in threats of one part of the country or one type of bualneus or finance, they should be subordinated to the common good. Ws should meet on the great broad ground of the coin mon wel fare—first to preserve the system in general as It to now coastructed, and aecondly to bring about, carefully and aoundly, such changes as are required to adjuat it to circumstances of today The tack of considering, sifting, weighing and co-ordinating dlsqpssion and suggestions regarding the Federal Reserve System has boen eonflded to the Economic Policy Commission of the American Bankers Association. It Is hoped that thereby the Federal Re serve System will ba given the best thought and the best support of bank ing There to no greater service bank ing car. render the nation than this.

Hcurit/.— Picture Show News For The Current Week ‘‘Ridin’ Thunder,” is Jack Hoxie in his latest, speediest, western replete with novel situations and old- fashioned he-man romance. Adapted from the story by B. M. Bower, “Rid in’ Thunder” is an interesting tale of seasoned cattlemen in a virgin cattle country. The action of the story is laid on the border of the great Paint ed Desert of Arizona. Lofty gran deur and rich poior of the country- Side add to the interest of this storj, which was directed by Cliff Smith. A complete change of his Ion established policy ia represented in Douglas MacLear/s comedy triumph, “Introduce Me.” Until now, Mac- Lean has filmed only adaptations of stage successes. But here he flashes forth in a startlingly new picture from an original story by himself and his scenario stall*—a story which the .star has had in mind for the past three years. His departure from his former po^cy, he explains, is because \ he is convinced that this new picture / has a plot >o novel, spontaneous and , entertaining that it could not be ap proached , by any stage adaptation obtainable. It took a very good screen story indeed to make the star change his plans. Portland Grain Firm Building Bulk Elevators Two large grain elevators are be ing erected at Portland by Balfour, Guthrie & Co. to supplement their already extensive facilities at that place for handling grain. The ele vators wiien completed will represent an investment of approximately $250,000. The building of these two ele vators is not only significant of Port land’s lead as a grain shipping center but also of the fact that grain in bulk is being handled more and more as opposed to the old method of handling it in sacks. One of the two elevators, which will have a capacity of 10,000 tons, is now being built on proper'/ ad- joining the company’s dock on the east aide waterfront just below the Broadway bridge. The'other is bt- ing built as an addition to the firm’s milling equipment at Front and Pet- tygrove streets. This elevator will have a capacity of approximately 6000 tons, making the bulk storage capacity at the mill approximately 11,000 tons. The building of this elevator is significant of plans for the expansion of the firm’s Hour milling business. Mx. Pattullu, northwest manager for the company, announced last week that the elevator now rising at the dock property would be completed in about 60 days. The smaller elevator at the mill, he said, would be finished in about a month. Why is Hay Fever Asks Eastern Man An eastern newspaper suggests that men of medicine turn their at tention to hay fever. There is no doubt that a remedy for this distress ing and mysterious malady would prove a great blessing for a large number of persons throughout the world. We call it a mysterious mala dy because it is so. What is its cause and why must its victims suffer an nually in spite of all they do to pre- vent its recurrence? Those upon whom it has laid its hold know al most to a day when they will be called upon to again endure its agonies. - Because hay fever is more preva lent in August than in any other month, it is popularly supposed that pollen from flowers is the cause. But why pollen from August’s flowers and not from those blooming from other months of the year? To answer that the adherents of the pollen theory pick on the golden rod. But hay fever claims its victims in places where there is no golden rod- and residents of large cities who never are within miles of that popular wild flower at any time often suffer the most severely. And if uollen to the cause of the disease why are not all who live in the country afflicted and all who live in the cities immune? The writer who suggested that physicians turn their attention to hay fever may or may not be a suff«|er but in any event he puts up to them a puzzle worthy of their fullest con sideration.* That it is not ordinarily a fatal malady does not make th« hay fever problem less important. The fact that it seemingly is such a sim ple and more or less harmless afflic tion makes jt qeem that the answer to the problem should easy to dis cover. Seemingly of a similar «ature to influenza, it is not so often fatal, but it causes a great amount of suffering each year. The very mysteriousnesa of th« disease should be a sufficient motive to cause some physician to conquer it.
