HOUSTON, Texas, Oct 7.—Lieutenant Governor Lynch Davidson
today issued a statement in which he suggested the calling of a special
session of the Texas Legislature to enact legislation preventing parades
of the Ku Klux Klan.
The lieutenant governor said in his statement that “every state
official in Texas, be his rank what it may, should throw his influence
in the balance for government by the duly elected authorities and not
by secretly organized clans and gangs, who tar and feather women
and drag helpless men from their homes and firesides.”

ATLANTIC CITY, N. 3., Oct. 1—
America can better afford to cancel
the $13,000,000,000 owed this nation by
the countries of Europe then force
them into bankruptcy through pay-
ment. George W. Norris, governor of
the Philadelphia Federal Reserve Bank,
declared today in an address before
the convention of the American Box
Manufacturers' Association.
Mr. Norris expressed the belief that
limitation of armaments and an asso-
ciation or a League of Nations would
be the quickest and surest solution of
the world economic crisis.

XI cents as a resuit of the complete
motorization of all department equlp-
ment. The tmprovements the city
could make and obtain, the additional
key rate reduction are the adoption
of a building code and the installation
of a rire alarm system. Each would
bring a reduction of four cents, the
fire chief stated.

"Austin’s key rate at present is high-

that Dallas. Fort Worth and several
other cities have reduced thetr key
rate as low as 11 c*nts. He pointed
out that a building code would reduce

With the matter of emergency relief
out of the way, the conference will
probably take up two or three related
but entirely distinct problems. One
will be how to Increase the general
business activity and prosperity of the
country. Whether the conference knows
it or not, this will lead them head-on
into a consideration of the present
state of Europe, for substantial pros-
perity in the nited States must wait
upon a resumption of buying power
upon the part of the unhappy nations
of Europe. Unfortunately, this resump-
tion of buying power does not seem
very close. So long as this condition
lasts, It presents the problem whether
there is any way of getting Europe
back to normal in an economic sense
other than by the co-operation of the
United States.
The other two subjects which later
will be taken up» by the conference,
will be ah effort to anticipate some
conditions which the far-seeing think
may arise during the coming winter,
and finally, some discussion in the
academic field of the relations of labor
and capital, looking to recommenda-
tions. These matters, however, will
be postponed until everything to be
done about emergency relief is com-
pleted and under way.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7—— The unem-
ployment. conference has gone far
enough to make it possible to see what
is likely to come out of it in the way
of emergency relief.
So far as this part of the conference
program is concerned, the bulk of what
will be done in the way of relief will
take the form of an organization of
the country, city by city. Every mayor
will be requested to set up a com-
mittee, which shall include manufac-
turers and other business men, labor
leaders and representatives of the local
charitable organizations. This com-
I mittee in each city will handle the
( unemployment problem of that city.
The relation of Washington to it will
k be intentionally slight and will ex-
press itself not so much in supervision
| as in stimulation,,advice, co-operation
1 and similar forms of help.
| Each city will be urged to adopt a
1 system of priority in furnishing relief
to its own unemployed, in order to
provent migration from cities which
are slow in getting under way to cities
which are prepared. The unemployed
in each city will be registered and
classified into three groups, the first
being those for whom jobs can be se-
cured immediately; second, those who,
I although without jobs, have some
I available form of relief in the shape,
I of savings or benefit dues, and the
[ third group of those who must be
I cared for by the charitable organiza-
2 tions.
I This is the burden of what the con-
| ference will do as regards emergency
[ , relief. To a certain extent it is pat-
L terned on the method of organizing

i ministration during the war, the prin-

None of the officers was injured.

"EEticleney should be the outstand-
ing qualification of the man for that
post and all party alms should be sac-
rificed to attain that desirable quali-
fication. The Feleral Reserve System
should be taken out of politic* alto-
gether in order taht It may under the
beat service to the nation. Without
the Federal Reserve system It would
have been virtually impossible to have
financed the costs of war expeditures
since the banks themselves could not
have met the obligations which
amounted to billions of dollars,’' Dr.
Wilmot declared.
Dr. Wilmot’s interview followed the
appearance in newspapers Friday
morning of his repeated assertion that
he would not be a nominee for the
chatrmanship"t the Eleventh Federal
Reserve District. Sentimert has
arisen particularly in San Antonio
against Judge Ramsey among hankers
because they regard Judge Ramsey and
his colleagues as responsible for the
failure to establish a branch of the
Federal Reserve Bank. Th* Han Au-
tonio bankers regard Dr Wilmot as
th* logical successor to Judge Ramsey
end declare the Austin banker could
receive a large following in South
Texas to support him for the place.
Because of Dr. Wilmot’s refusal to
accept the honors speculation in poli-
tical circles is rtf* as to whom this
position of trust should fall to. Among
the men mentioned in banking circles
as competent end qualified to succeed
Judge Ramsey ar* J. A. Podrum, pres-
ident City National Bank of Dallas: ■.
O. Tenison, chairman of the board of
the board of directors. American
directors American Exchange Na-
tional Bank of Dallas; "Buck" MeKi.
nay, vice-president American Exchange
National Bank, Dallas; Dr. Frederick
Torvill president City National Bank,
Han Antonio; E M Riordah, president
American Exchange National Bank.
Dallas; and Eugene Nolt* of Seguin.
Pressure of private business snd
heavy responsibmity placed on him
in various positions of trust are given
as reasons for his repeated declination
of the post of chairman of teh
Eleventh Federal Reserve District by
Dr. E. P. Wilmot, president of the
Austin National Bank and prominent
Republican leader of Texas for the pest
quarter century.
Dr. Wilmot told a representative of
the Austin Htatesman Friday morn-
ing that friends in Washington and
throughout the state of Texas have re.
peatedly asked him to allow them to
nominate Mm for the post. In re-
sponse to their insistence for his nom-
ination. Dr. Wilmot said he has con-
sistently declined the honor of succeed-
ing Judge William F. Ramsey, present
incumbent, nt the head of the Eleventh
Federal Reserve District
"It Is s compliment to me but It is
a position of great trust and respon-
sibility: so much so that it should
require the service of an experienced
banker who can give hl* undivided
time io the office. Th* man who fills
this Important post renders s great
service to the state and only unusually
qualinied men should be placed in it.
Pernonally I have been placed in posi-
tions of trust that carry with them
such great responsibiity that I cannot
leave Austin to take up this work and
for that reason have told all my friends
repeatedly not to place my name in
nomination for th* post." Dr. Wilmot
eclared.
Ashed whether any probability exists
of Judgs Ramsey’s retirement as head
of th* Eleventh Federal Heserve Dis-
trict. Dr. Wilmot declared that he had
learned nothing to that effect and in
Qtscusming th* probable nuocemses to
Judze Rammey in the event of His re-
tirement Dr. Wilmot emphatically de-
clared he was in favor of the man who
could render the greatest efficiency re-
gardless at politcal affiliation.
