BANKING LAW CHANGES URGES National Institutions in Danger, Dawes Says. HU United Press WASHINGTON, Dec. I.—-The national banking system of the country faces ruin unless Congress acts to liberalize branch banking laws, j which now seriously discriminate j against it, Controller of the CurI ,-ency Henry M- Dawes declared In j his annual report today. ‘‘lt Is my deliberate opinion,’’ ! said Dawes, ‘‘that if the general exi tension of branch banking is not
curbed within the Federal reserve system, on the one hand, and if the national banks are not permitted equality within city limits, on the other hand, defections from the na- | tional banking system will take j place within a very few years to such an extent as to reduce the na-
Yellow Cab Cos. Abolishes Extra Fares Today Hereafter 5 passengers can ride in a Yellow for the same price as one. This action is taken at the time of year when the need of taxicabs becomes most urgent. Naturally, this is experimental. We can’t foresee how much it will increase the volume of patronage. Volume is the life and soul of the taxicab business. With volume almost anything can be done. If the increase in our volume is big enough, this extremely low rate can be maintained. If not, we will have to talk to you again. Our drivers are vitally concerned in this move. Their living depends on their receipts. But they are willing to make this experiment, and they agree with us that it should be thoroughly tried in appreciation of public good will. They know, as we know, that if the increased volume is great enough, their livelihood can’t suffer. We believe that this action will make thousands of new taxicab riders—that it will induce mass-riding—encourage people to club together and to go to the theatres, parties and to and from work and so divide the cost that it will be insignificant to the individual. Whenever we have made rate reductions in the past the volume of patronage has increased materially. Ypllnw fah Rates 35c First !
