WOMAN'S CLUB HEARS TWO BOOKS REVIEWED

ator Owen, Democrat, Oklohamo, as a

basic move toward restoration of stable economic conditions throughout the world. In an extensive speech in the senate in which he dealt comprehensively with post-war conditions, the Oklahoma senator suggested in connection with the proposed reserve bank the following proposals for American aid in rehabilitation: 1. That we should postpone the final payment of the World war debt in the United States by extending the payment over 50 years; that we should not for 10 years collect any amount under the sinking fund. 2. That in arranging the payment of Europes debt to the United States we should extend time to Europe necessary to enable them to readjust their affairs and regain their productive power, and that we should not

for 10 year3 demand of them the pay

ment of interest due, but allow it to merge with the principal. '3. That we should put the interest rate at three per cent of Europe's debt to the United States. Submits Bill , Mr. Owen at the same time submitted to the senate a bill to amend the

federal reserve act so that establishment of the foreign banks would be possible. He proposed that the European bank should be owned by the re

serve system of the United States and j that from the twelve banks here it should draw a total of $500,000,000 in gold as a reserve. This, he claimed, would-in no way impair the reserves or resources of the American institutions yet it would enable the foreign banks to issue $2,500,000,000 in notes, backed up by gold as well as 100 per cent commodity bills. Secured currency is the sorest need of European trade at present, the Oklahoma senator declared, adding that if the United States provide such gold backed medium of circulation and then delaped collection of money due it from the demoralized countries, it would do much toward reviving the productive power of the whole world. He asserted that only through restoring the productive machinery of Europe could there be safe and sane economic conditions. "The one great outstanding factor breaking down confidence and destroying the validity and desirability of contracts in Europe," the senator continued, 'is the violent inflation of cur

rency through the printing press. In some countries of Europe peoplehave been compelled to abandon makin?

contracts in terms of currency and ! sician

FIND LESS DEMAND, BROADER ACTIVITY FOR BANKERS' BILLS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4. Lessened demand generally for bills of accept

ances but a somewhat broader activity was reported by the federal reserve board today in a year and survey of conditions in the acceptances markets of the twelve reserve districts. Activity prevailing in the bill market in November did not continue in December, Eoston reported, and sales during one week were described as the lowest for the year. The influence of tax .payments coming simultaneously with new certificate issue and the year end adjustments had a deterrent effect on the investors, according to the survey. A considerable decline in the country's foreign trade during 1921, in addition to the fall in prices resulted

in a reduction in the amount of bankers bills in the New York market, the survey continued, adding, however, that there was a steadily broadening market. "A highly important development of 1921," the report said, "was the growth of a market for call money lent against the security of bankers acceptance and treasury certificate.

(By Associated Press) LONDON, Jan. 4 Continuance of the sharp antagonism between the advocates and opponents of the Irish peace treaty was what mainly impressed English newspaper correspondents watching the proceedings in the Dail Eireann yesterday. The writers agreed that the recess had done nothing to alter the respective attitudes of the matters and said it was evident as soon as the session began that Monday's rumors 5f some possible surprise making for unanimity had no foundation In fact. - The long succession of speeches helped nothing and revealed nothing to these observers, several of whom

were convinced that the balance eventually would be turned, not by votes but by abstentions from voting. This view admittedly took no account ot Michael Collins' proposal for letting the treaty go through, after which the opponents could carry on their fight against the provisional government set up under the pact. However, the latest dispatches from Dublin revealed no suggestion that any action on this proposal was probable. Some of the newspapermen declared

there had been an increase in the bitterness between the contending factions and that the new newspaper, The Republic of Ireland, through the contemptuous tone of its articles directed

ingly the product of imaginative

minds of interested propagandists who are desirous of distorting conditions that exist in mining communities as a result of a depression in the coal industry, and differences arising from the maintenance of contracts between employers and employes." "It is true," continued Governor Morgan, "that scattering cases of poverty have Ijcen discovered, but the welfare agencies find these cases even in times of general prosperity. And it is equally true that there has been no more suffering in this state during the present depression, which the local authorities or local welfare agencies have ben unable to alleviate. Distress Net Serious Governor Morgan detailed investigations by George F. Daugherty. state

labor commissioner in Fayette and Raleigh counties, which, he said, disclosed that the "reports of distressing conditions were not of a serious nature and that the county authorities and Red Cross were prepared to give aid in any case of distress or suffering." A Raleigh county committee was quoted by the governor as reporting to him that "in no instance did we find a family starving.and in every case we found they had food enough to last for several days. To be sure, Christmas was not perhaps as bright

as it might, have been had the men been working, but there was no dire necessity anywhere."

men having rejected a 15 per cent wage cut announced by the controlling company. The strike order was approved at a meeting last night, but the hour of the walkout was left to the discretion of a committee.
