Even in that, however, the bills carried a phrase that the bounty should so to the '•prowor. or his assignee." and the last question a-sked Zimmerlin yesterday was as to whether as a matter of fact the bounty did not even then continue to go to the refiner instead of to the crower. Zimmerlin replied that it did. that the. bounty was practically always tlie prop erty of tho refiner. Zimrr.erl'n's examination was unfinished at toe end of the day's session. BETTS DENIES PAYMENT State Conimitteeman Gives Lie to Zimmerlin's Testimony. By T< lepraph to The Tribune. 1 Lyons. N V.. Oct. 6. — Charles H. Betts, state . on:riiitteemari. who was clerk of the revision department in the assembly in 1305, when toM this evening that Harry K. Zim merlin bad testified at the graft inquiry to paying H«tts $.>no i,, 1305 in connection with the sugar beet bounty bill, said: "That Is a lie made out of whole cloth. What help I rendered was at the solicitation of the late Justiceof tho Supreme Court James W. Dunwell and the busines men of Lyons. Tie Empire Beet i=tigar Company was a. local institution, and naturally I did what 1 could to further its interests. For this I never received a cent directly or indirect ly.

As a !r.it: r of fart, the sugar company a.nd Its ofTicer.s were soto nt me because i defended Governor Mushes in 'The Lyons Republi can' for vetoing the sugar beet bounty bill.

The savings bank and ttie clearing house sections of the American Bankers" Association held their annual meetings yesterday. Following the delivery of President William R. Creer*a address and the reports of the secretary and various committees. K. M. Welch, sec retary of the California. Bankers' Associa tion, read before the savings bank section a paper on "Segregation of Savings De posits." John Hajsrn Ethoadea of Khoaries a- Co., New York, and h-dnmntl L). h'l.sher.

Minneapolis, .^-pokp on "Scliools lor S.ivings Banks." The secretary report showed a member ship of 1,773, a net gain of V*,i during the year, and a credit balance on hand of $I*6 75. which will revert to tha general as sociation. The committee on postal say- Hip.> banks reported an expenditure of $3,151 74 in Its propaganda against the move ment lor sucn institution. Mr. Rhoade6's Address. Mi Rhoades devoted much of his ad dress to an attack upon the amortisation features of New York's banking code. In part, he saia : Perhaps the merits and demerits of amor tization, in its application to the manage ment of a savings Institution, can best be demonstrated by carefully scrutinizing a law recently enacted in the State of New York. It Is only fair to say in its defence that the savings bank law governing in vestments is rigid, only the purchase of the highest grade securities being permit ted. m January 1. 190 S. the country had not holly recovered from the panic, bonds were still depressed in price and many of our savings institutions discovered the startling fact that if they appraised their securities at their estimated market or probable liquidating worth they would be unable to show a surplus. Assuming that all investments were gilt edged and certain to be paid at maturity, and thinking purely of dividend payments, to the exclusion of conservation of principal, they persuaded themselves and the Legislature that tiie old law, which demanded a semi-annual le port of their condition, based on market values, should be abrogated, and that mort gages on real estate should be appraised at par and bonds at basis or investment cost adjusted to date by the amortization of premiums and discounts. To be sure, under the general banking law of the state the Superintendent of Banking has the right to demand from the banks a report based on market values. This, however, Is not mandatory and places too much responsibility on the shoulders of the Superintendent. Bank superintend ents are only human: many owe their appointment to banking interests; and. with, the amortization law behind him. a man with political aspirations might be sorely tempted to shape his conduct so as to keep in good grace with the banks. It may be amusing- It is certainly hu miliating— to observe how some of our sav ings institutions have defeated the Intent, of the law. 1 wish to point out that th© amortization law unfortunately falls to provide that any fixed ratio of surplus to deposits fhall be maintained, and explicitly slates that, after expenses and the amorti zation of premiums and discounts have been duly cared for, all interest earned, as nearly as may be, shall be credited to de positors' accounts, abandoning the matter of increase or reinforcement of surplus completely to the discretion of th* trustee. Such being the case, a bank striving to pay larger dividends has merely to sell those securities purchased on low base.s I. c. at high prices, charge "the loss to profit and Iob.« account mid repurchasi the same, or others equally good, on high bases. Thus a new basis or in vestment cost is established and the amount Of inter est earned, applicable to dividends under th« law. Is increased. r>o not misunder stand me. There are times When a shrewd banker .-an quite properly buy and sell bonds to the advantage of his hank, but the possibility here opened of a mischievous Juggling of securities nnd a consequent manipulation of earnings proves the fu tility of the present, law p.\ en jr. its most laudable purpose- the computation of earn ings as a basis for a proper dividend <Jif= hurwment. "Disgrace to the State." Nov.-, if the old law demanding a report based on market values was abrogated and the amortization law knowingly enact ed for the purpose of hiding deficits, the proceeding was and Is, so long as we su pinely acquiesce. a disgrace to th* State of New York. We who Have at heart th» welfare of the savings of the poor are now to have a worthy and- If feeiiie ourselves a success ful* competitor, the postal savings hank, and greatly as we bankers may regret to see politicians, with little or no financial experience and whose term of office is limited, enter the banking field, the postal bank will Btrongly appeal to the people. The savings depositor is looking for safety, not Income Should any weakness develop among our private institutions, fear and anger, justly aroused, will spread like con tagion, and our bankers, one and all. Will be alike victims and offenders. Of all times this is the time to be strong, stand ing ready, if our services are no longer required, to liquidate dollar for dollar. If to-day our national bankers do not take more sincere, thorough and active in terest In banking reform and demand of Congress a central bank of issue -a people's hank to be conducted under the joint control of bankers, merchants and the gov ernment, the time will come when the peo ple will demand of Congress a government bank. Shall h«, the bankers, surrender banking duties, rights and privileges to politicians? is It possible that our Ameri can bankers have no ambition other than the accumulation of wealth? Mr. Fisher's Viev. Mr. Fisher asserted that the future ol bonds was bound up with the currency re form movement, and declared thai the necessity for a central bank was becom ing more apparent.
