EOF OR CEASE TALK ( cf5t a COLlMltl'S, 0., Deo. 29. The fuur imtioiml sociological und econ oniics societies which hitvc been uivi-tiiiK licre, were holding the find sessions of their eoiiventiou today nt Ohio Stnte university, where prob lems likely to arise in this country iollowine the wnr in Europe nnd la bor problems were being discussed by men of national reputation. "We shall hne capital utter the war, but shall not have labor enough to employ it," Oeori:e E. Hubert of the National (,'ity Hank of New York said in speaking before the Economic association regarding the situation of the Vnited Stutes nt the close, of the Kuropcnn wnr, with special reference to the gold supply. "The labor of Europe and the cap ital of Amcri-.'a will have to be brought together. Conditions seem to favor the transfer of capital in the form of gold to Europe, rather than I he removal of the population from Europe to America. " Mr. Roberts criticised the new fed eral reserve act, saying: "In their nnxicly to decentralize the banking business, the authors of this act neglected to centralize the gold reserves, which is the most im portant requisite of a reserve system. The result is that while the country": stock of Lobl has increased from January .1 to November 1 by approx imately 100.000,0(10. the federal re serve bunk of New York, on which the demand lor gold export must inevit- ablv fall, has gained less than ..-,ll(0,0mi, and nil the federal reserve banks together have gained less than !fi::2,ooo,non." j 'file general monetary situation, ! the transfer of gold to the bank re Uscrvcs of the lulled States and other countries and the increased use of Tpaper money in Europe, undoubtedly has and will continue to have, an in I i'luence for higher prices, Mr. liob erts said. TAtUS, Dec. -'SI. A resolution has been adopted by the socialist con gress calling upon the government to pursue a more vigorous policy both in military and In economic action, so that the full resources of the coun try may be brought into play and tho wnr terminated more speedily. The resolution is predicted on the assertion that the replies of the cen tral powers to President Wilson's note leave no doubt that the offer of peace negotiations was a snare. Deputies who met German and other foreign socialist delegates at the conference in Switzerland sup ported a motion In favor of resump tion of international relations among socialists. This proposal was de feated by a small majority after a long and heated discussion. STIES A MINE NEW YORK, Dec. 29. The Rus sian steamship Kursk, while bound from Archangel. Russia, for New- York with 120 passengers aboard, hit a mine on November 29 off Kirkwell, Scotland. One passenger and two I members of the crew were drowned ,' -while lifeboats were being launched. Part of the Kursk's stern was torn off by the explosion and she wos later towed into Kirkwall by English pa trol boats. Her passengers and crew, however, drifted all night In open boats before being picked up. News of the accident was brought liere today by the rescued passengers, who arrived on board the steamship Lapland from Liverpool. SEEK 10 ABOLISH ALL ILLEGITIMACY CHICAGO, Dec. 29. Passage of laws which would elemiuate all il legitimacy were urged before the Illi nois womau's congress, in session here today. Remedial measures sug gested by speakers were the "auto matic marriage hill," which provides that the birth of a child shall auto matically marry the parents, and the passacc of a law which would give a child born out of wedlock Its father's name and provision for its support, but which would not enforce marriage bctwetnlhe parents. ' LONDON, Dee. 29. The Scandi navian governments have sent a joint note to belligerents supporting tho peace note of President Wilson. A lieuter dispatch from Copenha gen says the Danish, Swedish nnd Norwegian governments have in structed their legations to address to the governments of the belligerent countries notes in which the Scan dinavian governments, adhering to the note of President Wilson concern ing measures to be adopted for facil itating a durable peace, declare thev would consider themselves as failing in their duty toward their respective peoples nnd toward humanity as n whole, if they did not express their most profound sympathy with every effort which may contribute toward putting an end to the sufferings nnd losses, moral and material, which are ever growing in consequence of the wnr. The three governments in conclus ion cherish the hope that the initiat ive taken by President Wilson will lead to n result worthy of the gener ous spirit which prompted this notion. 10 Tho First National Rank has Just installed a machine that will actually keep books, the Tlurroughs Adding Subtracting Machine, and It will bo used for making entries to tho bank's ledgers and writing up depositors' statements. To understand best what this ma chine means to a busy bank, one must see it in actual operation. A great number of checks naturally come into the bank daily and each must pass through the regular channels. A record must be mado of each one and tho account of each depositor must be handled separatoyl and ac curately. , Before the advent of the machine, the detail work of entering amounts in the ledger and making out de positors'' statements was a tiresome and uncertain task. All checks had to be listed separately and added up by hand. All deposits had to be list ed and added and their total com bined with the customer's old bal ance. When that was dono the total of all checks had to be deducted from the sum of old balance and deposits to determine the new balance. With the new Burroughs, this work is all done mechanically, except the actual settink down of the figures on the key-board. And the balancing of an account, from old balance or through checks and deposits to new balance Is virtually handled in one operation. Tho operator first feeds the cus tomer's old balance Into the machine. Then ho sets down the amount of each check; enters the amount of the deposit: and, after taking a spacing 6troke, depresses the operating bar with the total key down and the cor rect new balance Is automatically computed and printed In the right hand column. This machine also automatically prints the dates oppo site each list of checks and deposits, and without any attention from tho operator, sets each in the column in which It belongs. Another thing it does Is to detect overdrafts instantly, whether the operator notices them of not. When the checks exceed the deposits and the old balance, the machine auto matically locks and no results can be obtained until the lever controlling the internal mechanism Is placed in the "subtract" position, when the overdraft is printed in the proper column with an "OD" sign in red ink. In addition to posting the ledgers, the Burroughs makes out monthly statements for depositors. Each state ment shows all the checks fnd de posits of the customer, together with the balance he has In the bank at the end of the month. Under this sys tem, each customer's account Is kept balanced all the time and a state ment is readjr for him at the end of the month, ftr at any time ho wants It. on five minutes notice. Moreover, he does not have to bother with bringing In his pass book to be bal anced. This system marks another step in the First National Bank's effort to give the most complete nnd satis factory service to depositors. There will be a public demonstra tion of this machine in the First Na tional Rank, Saturday, December ?.n, from 10 a. m. to 3 p. m. A. E. IlPnmes, attorney; K. It. Peterson, P. II.

THE HAIGHT MUSIC STUDIO -101 Garnctt-frwv Building WASHINGTON, Dee. 2a. The controversy which hns followed Con gressman Wood's resolution for in vestigation of whether any member of President Wilson's official family profited in tho stock market because of "inside iiiformntion" on the presi dent's peace notes, got into semi-official form today when Chairman Henry of the house rules committee telegraphed Thomas W. I.awson of Boston to come to Washington and substantiate his published state ments that he knew of the so-called leak, and his prediction that there would be another. "Put up, or shut up," said Chair man Henry s telegram. "I ease slan dering und libelling congress and pub lic oi'icials or make good your charges." Mr. Henry announced that he wimld reintroduce his bill next Tucs duv to regulate the New York stock exchange. "If Mr. Lnwson states tho truth about Wall street and an alleged leak," he said, "it conclusively shows that the bill introduced by mo in tho sixty-third congress to regulato the New York stock exchnnge should he speedily passed and should even be made more drastic. "This short session should find n way to protect tho American people against such crimes ns the one just perpetrated by Wall street, if Mr. Lnwson is anywhere near the truth."

IT The Pure Food and Drug Laws aim to protect the public ty preventinj,' mis-statements on the labels of prepa rations but some people continue to accept "extracts" of a.d lifers think ing they will get the benefits of an emulsion of cod liver oil. The difference is very great. An "emulsion" contains real cod liver oil, which has had the hearty endorse ment of the medical profession for many years, while an "extract" is a product which contains no oil and is highly alcoholic fecott's Emulsion guarantees the high est grade of re ' Norwegian cud liver oil, skilfully blended with glycerine and hvpopbosphites.
