OPEN WITH LIGHT
BUSINESS NOTED
Amount of Deposits Proves
Surprise No Gold, Gold
Certificates Or Currency
Being Paid Out Under Ban
SAN BANCISCO, March 13. (AP)
All San Franclaco'i banks reopened
todaV tor normal business. They re
ceived licenses from the federal re
anrva bank here ahortlT before 0 a. m.,
and some opened Immediately, others
waiting for the regular opening nour,
10 a. m.
Business was quiet. One vlce-prest?
dent said:
"We expected the lobby to be full
of people, but to our surprise there
are only a few here now."
This was shortly before 10 o'clock.
Another said: t
"You would be amazed to see the
amount of deposits we are taking In
especially of gold."
No Gold Goes Out.
There are five national banks here,
Jnd they all opened. There are 10
banka licensed under state banking
laws, and they were operating on a
regular basis. Some state banks,
however, had little contact directly
with the public, being agencies of
foreign Institutions.
The only restrictions were that no
gold, gold certificates or "currency"
could be paid out. The "currency"
provision was added by the secretary
of the treasury to the previous re
strictions against paying gold and gold
certificates.
This was taken as assurance that
the new federal reserve certlflcatea
had arrived and had been made
available to banks, although the fede
ral reserve bank had "no comment"
to make on that point.
San Francisco will be the only Pa
cific coast city with full banking fa
cilities today, It being the location
of the 12th district reserve bank, the
only one on the coast.
Many Resume Tuesday.
Operations were scheduled for re
sumption tomorrow In BO cities In
the seven far western states. There
are 50 clearing house associations In
the twelfth federal reserve district,
and the executive order prescribed
that banks in cities having clearing
house associations might resume ope
rations If licensed by national or
state authorities.
On the following day, Wednesday,
all hanks which have been given
licenses will be In regular operation,
subject only to the restrictions as to
the type of money they may pay out.

ACTION FILLS AIR
(Continued tram page One)
and gave Washington the first laugh
it has had In a gloomy month of
Sundays.
Twelve long lean years out of of
fice and with t&elr appetites whet
ted to a point where a sack of pea
nuts looked like a feast, the Demo
crats descended upon the White
House executive offices the morning
of the first working day the new
president was at his desk.
They came In through ' the front
gates, through the side gates, and
one of them almost kissed a colored
furnaoe-man who', hearing a commo
tion outside. Inadvertently opened a
basement door. ,
They were armed with letters from
everybody but the Pope. Nothing
like It had been seen since the day
after Harding was Inaugurated when
a delegation of Ohio office-seekers
took possession of the place and
stayed a week.
Not a peep was heard from F. D.
until about noon, when, showing his
old naval training, he discharged a
depth bomb. That there was also a
moratorium on job seekers and that
he would not concern himself with
distribution of plums until he had fi
nally acted on the emergency bank
ing legislation shocked the faithful.
As a result the exodus of the Job
seekers army there was an air of
tranquility about the White House
Tuesday morning which has not been
equalled on the second morning of
any president's occupancy In forty
years.
When a new man goes In usually
there are taxicabs dashing up to t.he
door discharging personages who are
bursting with Importance. Many of
these will, upon the slightest pretext,
confide the fact that he carried his
own state for the successful candidate.
Also missing were the thousands of
Blghtseers usually running higher
and thither about the White House
for several days after an Inaugural.
Taking their cue from the presi
dent the men about the White House
were smiling. After his banking edict
Mr. Roosevelt appeared to be like a
man with, tho weight of the world
off his shoulders.
Rare Stones Collected
And Cut by Local Man
(By lira Fewell.)
Bocks, by every other name. That's
what the collection of over 1,000 cut
stones, and hundreds of unfinished
specimens might be called, which B.
R. Santo of 030 South Ivy street has
arranged in his tiny workshop in the
back of his garage. The more valu
able of his atones are kept In glass
topped cases In his home.
During the past two years, Mr.
Santo has been making a search
through the southern Oregon hills
for specimens of the various types
of rock formation, and those of the
more rare varieties are exchanged
with traders who visit his little shop.
Through this bartering, Mr. Santo
now has stones from many coun
tries the gorgeous green malachie of
tries the gorgeous green malachite of
Philippines, the uncanny tiger-eye of
south Africa, and marble from Mex
ico, which might easily be mistaken
for butterscotch.
But Inside the cigar boxes, ar
ranged neatly in rows in the work
shop, are hundreds of southern Ore
gon rocks, which compare favorably
with those from any other section.
Among the collection Is one large
group of amethyst crystals, taken
from the Little Butte district.
Fossilized sandstone, with clam
shells in it, a large rock crystal be
longing to the group often used as
"diamonds," taken from the Black
Hills, and a petrified cactus from
Texas, make up a part of the array,
as do a leopard onyx from Nebraska,
some green marble and Jasper from
South Dakota, rose quarts and for
mations with little garnets imbedded.
Other southern Oregon specimens
which Mr. Santo has found In his
continuous searching, are an Ivory
tusk from the Antelope district, pet
rified bulbs, and a petrified deer or
elk horn which was brought from the
Dead Indian country.
A desert rose, in the hues becom
ing such a flower. Is among the most
beautiful of the rocks. Some black
agates of South Dakota have been
polished by Mr. Santo In his shop,
and some natrollte from Dead Indian
and Little Butte make up a portion
of the group of local formations.
There Is also some white marble,
brought from Miller oreek In Jose
phine county.
Views in some of the polished
agates are quite unusual, one having
a beautiful sunset, another a wood
land scene, and still another a per
fect view of Roxy Ann. A little but
terfly Is the centerpiece of one stone,
and several have perfect sprays of
moss in them.
Mr. Santo has one group of stones
which he refuses to part with, re
gardless of offers from the many
traders who visit his little home.
When his array of specimens Is more
complete, he said, Mr. Santo plans
to display them to the city of Med
ford.

hands and feet protrude, and are held by specta
tors while the magician takes a crosscut saw and,
with the help of an assistant, saws through the
center of the box and apparently through the wo
man. EXPLANATION:
There are many explanations for this Illusion. Ooe
method of performing this illusion requires the
presence of tnuo girls in, the box. One girl curls up
in the left half of the box with her head and hands
protruding, giving the effect you see illustrated
above. The other girl is doubled up in the right
half of the box, with only her feet showing. Nobody
Is sawed in half.
