POLL ON BANK SITUATION
Washington Maintenance in the

with autonomous powers, in con

proved by member organizations of
the chamber of commerce of the Uni

Voting in a nation-wide referen
dum on nineteen proposals designed
to strengthen the federal reserve sys
tem, the members expressed them
selves that a policy favoring a uni
form rate of rediscount for all re
serve banks was unsuited to the reg
ional system and to the diversity of
business conditions.
All the proposals dealing with
questions of administrative policies
end practices, were adopted by more
than the necessary two-thirds ma
jority vote, the chamber said Thurs
day i nannounclng preliminary re
turns they were based upon a report
on activities of the federal reserve
system by hte banking and currency
committee of the national chamber.

Death of For
mer Papal Sec
retary of State
Cardinal Merry Del Val Dies Follow
ing Operation Long Distin
guished Figure at Rome.
' Rome, Feb. 26. Cardinal Merry
Del Val, 65, until recently papal sec
retary of state and arch priest of
St. Peter's, died today from heart
failure after au emergency operation
for appendicitis.
The cardinal was stricken sudden
ly ill yesterday and grew worse dur
iug the night. Finally an operation
was deemed necessary and this was
performed by Prof. Bastianelli. The
cardinal was resting comfortably this
Hfternoon when fatal collapse came.
The cardinal's death which follows
that of Cardinal Perosi, secretary of
the consistorial congregation, last
Saturday, now leaves the college of
cardinals with 32 so-called foreign
cardinals and 28 Italians.
Cardinal Merry Del Val was one
of the most distinguished figures in
I he recent history of the papacy. He
was made a cardinal in 1903 at the
comparatively early age of 38 and
forthwith was created secretary of
state to Pope Pius X.
The cardinal was of noble Spanish
birth. His father was Spanish am
bassador to the court of St. James.
when the future cardinal was born
in London in 1865. He was educated
at the Jesuit college of St. Michel,
Brussels, and was selected as private
tutor to King Alfonso XII. When
his father was appointed Spanish
ambassador to the holy see, he ac
companied him to Rome and entered
the Georgian university to prepare
for the priesthood.
The cardinal was protecor of many
religious orders in the United States
and Canada, among whom were the
Sisters of Divine Providence in Texas,
the Sisters of Charity, knowi as the
Gray Sisters of Canada, the Sisters
of Charity of Blessed Virgin of Du
buque, la., the Sisters of the Third
Order of St. Francis of Oldenberg.
Ind., and the Franciscan Sisters Third
Order of the Immaculate Conception
of Joliet, III.
The prelate appeared in excellent
health on his recent public appear
ances and his seizure with appendi
citis came with extreme suddenness.
He succeeded Cardinal Rampolla as
pontifieial secretary of state in 1903,
having been made a cardinal. His
term in that office ended with the
death of Pope Pius X. 11 years later.
He then became archpriest of St.
Peter'B.
He officiated only two da.ys ago at
the baptism of the graud niece of the
pope. Maria Pia. daughter of Count
and Countess Ueolin. World-Herald.

Recovery Made as Exchange at Om

eral Farm Board
Chicago Above the hubub of
voices clamoring criticism of tin
farm board's grain policies were
heard the shouts of traders Thurs
day bidding wheat futures up with
in nine cents of the price the Farm
ers' National Grain corporation u
paying its co-operative farmers for
cash wheat. Two days ago. at it?
weakest moment in years. March
wheat sold at 9S :?-4c nearly L" cents
a bushel cheaper than the govern
ment's cish price.
Thursday's advance of 2 1-4 to
3 7-S cents on the Chicago market
was credited chiefly to the prercnee
of government agents in the wheat
pit.
Observing that the "laugh is on
the government" for engaging in
future trading after "years of criti
cism of grain exchanges and of fu
tures trading." the Omaha grain ex
change said:
"Since about Jan. 20 they (the
government corporations) have pur
chased somewhere around 10.000 bus
hels of cash wheat at a price about
13 cents above its present value in
the world's market. With a dead loss
of about $1,500,000 haunting their
dreams they have recourse to the
speculators method for recouping the
loss. They bought more wheat this
time in the futures market, but v.-ith
the hope that later rising prices will
enable them to recover pai;t losses.
"These purchases have established
the fact t hat the government now
recognizes the value of the future
market, however. If its use of this
modern tool of trado shall restore
confidence and brine an improved
price range, congratulations will be
in order.
Winnepeg Taking its cue again
from Chicago, the wheat marked
moved optimistically forward Thurs
day out of range, temporarily at lea.-t
of the year's lows touched in Tues
day's hectic session. It closed only
fractionally below its peak quota
tions and registered net gains of 2
3-4 to 3c for the day.
May futures shot forward to $1.17
and closed at $1.16 7-S; July touch
ed $1.19 and closed at $1.1S 3-4 to
7-S. and October reached $1.20 clos
ing at $1.19 7-8 to $1.20. State

Sir Hubert will remain here for
about a week and then start for New

as to what steamer he will take.
Shortly after reaching the United
States he will proceed to Ihirope,
with the object of preparing for his
intended submarine expedition to
the arctic this summer.
During the trip just completed. Sir
Hubert found less ice than on his
previous expedition to the south
polar regions, he said, but the wea
ther was invariably worse. Six flights
were made in the hydroplanes Los
Angeles and San Francisco, wmji
over land, others over me sea. am
still others over large masses of
floating ice which resembled islands
of exceptional size.
Three of the flights were ot Ioiik

other antarctic explorers, Sir Hubert
said. Altogether the planes tiew 2500

Be Business Goal Talk
About Chains
LiLicnlu. Neb.. Feb. 2j.--Obscrvinrr
that the small town independent
merchant should ! reiaii.ed in
open competitive field, (Inwrncr
Weaver today suggested a form of
sales tax as a means of equalizing
con slit ions.
His comment on the chain stor
controversy was made, for a mem
ber of the McKrndree college debate
squad at L banon. 111.
Calling attention to the fact that
Nebraska has not enacted any laws
cither to encourage or to prevent
th growth of the chain store, Gov
ernor Weaver described th" present
situation as on directly attributable
to the branch store evpansion by
larger merchandising concerns, who,
he said, had taken advatuage of the
aut and good roads.
Patronage to Decide.
"The final answer to this expan
sion." the governor paid, "will couh
from the people tlvmselves, because
their patronage will determine thv
success or failure of the system."
Practically all of our merchants,
he added, have been local home own
ers and taxpayers, interested in eve
ry community enterprise and sup
porters of churches and schools.
"Hecause foreign-owned or foreign-operated
corporations bear only
a small part of the expense and re
sponsibilities wiiicn attr.cn to local
merchants, the competitive field
should be kept opnn to the worthy
small competitor by a system ol tax
ation," the governor suggested.
Proses Graduated Tax.
This taxation, he explained, should
be upon an entirely equitable basis,
operated with reasonable exemptions
on a craduatod basis of gross sales or
excess provts.
A taxation system of this nature,
he said, would conform to the rec
ognized principle of the graduated
federal income tax.
"I know of no other way to meet
the new ami complex problem which,
now confronts the sm:ill business
man. It would justly .supplem-m
needed organisation for co-operative
nun ha.Ae bv small mercliants ol goods
on a In rare scale, and tne personal
contract and service which comes- i
from local business mvii'Tiip. home j
ou nerslitp. and Homo interest in .ill i
