OPPOSES ONE-MAN RULE
IN DISTRICT'S SCHOOLS
William McK. Clayton Also Against
Appointment of a Director
of Charities.
School matters were discussed before
r ? session of t!i< committee on public
schools of the Roard of Trade yesterday
afternoon. Opposition to t director of
schools to assume the authority now
vested |n the board of ?duration wavoiced.
There t*as criticism of the method
in vopue of one teacher directing tl.e
'duration of t\v.? s<- tions of ono grade
in the same room.
William McK. Clayton opposed not otilj
a director of education, but also a director
of charities. He considered that
the control of education and of chari
iea should he divorced froni the Commissioners,
that they may become closer
to the people. As directors would be appointed
by the Commissioners and the
present hoards hy the Supreme Court
and the President, the present method is
better for the welfare of tin- pubir* in
.s opinion.
William John Kynon, secretary of the
Hoard of Trade, objected to the system
of two sections taught in one room.
"The reports received of the work done
rny children," he said, "are not as
favorable as we desire, and t ie excuse
is advanced that this is caused by the
< !,fusion which arises from the holding
of < lasses six months apart in the same
room."
Frederick A. Penning, chairman of the
< onnnittee, said that "if pupils nr. abbto

RIDING AND HUNT CLUB
A FINE PROGRAM OF EVENTS
GIVEN.
Smart Audience Applauds and Honors
Were Well
Won.
Thrills came thick and fast last night
at the clubhouse of the Washington Hiding'
and Hunt Club when that club was
the host at one of its midwinter entertainments.
The boxes and galleries were
taxed to their full capacity and the tricks
and rough riding received the applause of
those present.
Troops A and B. 15th Cavalry, at Fort
Myer, gave exhibition drills, in addition
to the other games and events by the
high-bred steeds of Washington. The 15th
Cavalry Band furnished the music between
the eight events.
White Silk, the "high school horse" of
Miss Agra Bennett, caused a stir when
he lay down and tried to roll over. Miss
Bennett was half under the horse when
the grooms ran to her assistance. Women
screamed and men looked on with apprehension.
The rider was unhurt. When
White Sill., a horse of dazzling white
color, rolled up from his position on the
ground and sat up on Ills haunches, he
seemed to be looking for the plaudits of
I the audience. Then tbe anxious audience
i -
burst Into laughter, realizing: then u was
only one of the horse's tricks.
The club today will hold its Saturday
drag hunt, the riders gathering at "
o'clock at the kennels in Daniel's road.
The course probably will be about twelve
or fourteen miles in extent.
In the potato race the honors went to
Miss Jeannettfe Allen, first; Miss Dasha
Allen, second, and Miss Agra Bennett,
third. Red Cloud, the property of Col.
Robert M. Thompson, carried off the
blue ribbon in the saddle flat's. Aurora,
the horse of "William 1*. Eno, won the
red, and Duke, property of Miss Edythe
W. Howard, won the yellow.
The judges were Brooke Baker of
Cppervllle, Va.; IJeut. Johnston, Capt.
Wallaek and Maj. Rhodes of Fort Myer.
In the potato race Miss L?ucv R. Siddons
had some trouble with her mount, which
threw her against the side of the hall
as nhe was remounting, but she came out
of the brush with the horse uninjured.
Miss Helen Buchanan won th\ stall
race on the famous Katydid, and Miss
Siddons won second honors. The <Jrst
prize in the game of "musical <-haii\"
was carried off by Mrs. W. Sinclai.
Bowen, and Edwin Gray finished Second.
In th<' jumps the blue ribbon went
to Katydid, the red to Regent, ridden by
Miss Dasha Allen, and the yellow to
Badger, ridden by F. S. Key-Sn.ith.

VARIANCEJN VIEWS
Findings Submitted by Money
Trust Investigators.
THREE REPORTS TO HOUSE
'
| Majority Declares the Existence of
Strong Financial Combine.
__??????
I
i CURB OF POWER SUGGESTED
Two Minority Dissenting Declarations?All
Agree That Legislaj
tion Is Demanded.
That a money trust does exist and
that its powers should be curbed by a
stringent federal regulation as to the
conduct of national banks, clearing
houses and stock exchanges were tiie
findings embraced in the majority report
of the ilouse money trust committee tiled
late yesterday. This report was signed
by Chairman I'ujo and the six other
democratic members of the committee
which conducted the money trust probe.
Two bills embodying the committee's
recommendation*# accompany the majority
report.
Two minority reports signed by republican
members of the subcommittee deny
the existence of a money trust. The
| first, signed by Representative Hayes of
i California. Heald of Delaware and
Guernsey of Maine, declared that tiie
investigation has not disclosed the existence
of a money trust. It added, however,
that the investigation has disclosed
a dangerous concentration of credit in
.New York city and to some extent in
Boston and Chicago. The report agreed
substantially with that of the majority
on many of the abuses to be corrected in
the financial system, stock exchanges
and clearing house associations, but
stated its "igners did not agree in the
remedies proposed by the majority.
The second minority report was filed by
Representative McMorraji of Michigan.
It was a flat disagreement with the findings
and recommendations of the majority.
The report states that while grave
deficiencies in the financial laws have
been disclosed by the investigation, a sinister
light had been thrown over banking
nractice which was not justified by the
fart?. It continues that a sentiment nas
been created throughout the country
against Wall street and that many good
citizens do not realize what it means that
New York has become one of the world's
leading money markets and that the
banks of New York and their associates
are now able to handle large transactions
which they were unable to handle only a
few years since.
Untermyer Drafts Report.
The majority report, as submitted to the
House, is largely the work of Samuel I'ntermyer.
counsel for the committee, who
composed the original draft of the report
and who drew the bills presented. On
the question of the existence of a money
trust the report is specific and detailed.
"It would, of course, he absurd," said
the report, "to suggest that control of the
bulk of the widely distributed wealth of
a great nation can be corralled by any
set of men. If that is what is meant by
; gentlemen who deny the existence of a
i money trust your committee agrees with
them. Such a thing, of course, would be
impossible, and its suggestion is ridiculous.
It is not, however, necessary that
a group of men shall directly control
the small savings in the banks nor the
scattered resources of the country in order
to monopolize the great financial
transactions or to be able to dictate
the credits that shall be extended or
withheld from the more important and
conspicuous business enterprises. This is
substantially what has been accomplished
and fairly represents the existing condition."
Substance - of the Findings.
The great bank or banker "with access
to the mainsprings of the concentrated
resources of other people's
money," the report declares, "can handle
the vast issues of securities now demanded
by the commercial and industrial development
of the country. But tho bank
reserve system," it is further contended,
"concentrates a large part of the funds
of the smaller banks in the only public
money market of the country. New York,
where a group of men there have
strengthened their interest in the various
banking institutions," the report said.
"if. therefore, by a 'money trust' is
meant 'an established and well defined
identity and community of interest between
a few leaders of finance, which lias
been created and is neiu toifi'inrr unuugu
stockholdings, interlocking directorates,
and other forms of domination over banks,
trust companies, railroads, public service
and industrial corporations and which
has resulted In a vast and growing concentration
of the control of money and
credit in the hands of a comparativelyfew
men' your committee, as before stated.
has no hesitation in asserting as the
result of its investigation up to this time
that the condition thus described exists
In this country today."
Alleged Trust Membership Grouped.
Accepting t Iris as the long-sought
"money trust" the committee outlined
the membership as follows:
"The parties to this combination or understanding
or community of interest, by
whatever name it may be called, may be
conveniently classified, for the purpose
of differentiation, into four separate
groups.
"The first, which, for convenience of
statement, we will call the inner group,
consists of J. P. Morgan At Co., the recognized
leaders, and George P. Baker and
James Stillman, In their individual capacities
and In their joint administration
and control of the First National Bank,
the National City Bank, the National
Bank of Commerce, the Chase National
Bank, the Guaranty Trust Company and
the Bankers' Trust Company, with total
known resources in these corporations
alone in excess of |1.3u0.000t0UP, and of a
number of smaller but important financial
Institutions This takes no account
of the personal fortunes of these gentlemen.
"Closely aligned with this inner or primary
group and, Indeed, related to them
practically as partners in many of their
larger financial enterprises, are the pow
erful international banking houses of Bee.
i i n?oiii?,in al- < 'n and Kidder. Peahodv
? ? ? _ - - ?
Company, with three affiliated' hanks in
Boston.
International Concern Included.
"In New York city the international
banking house of Messrs. Kuhn. Boob &
Do.. with its large foreign clientele and
connections, while only quallfledly allied
with the inner group, yet through its
i dose relations with tlie National City
i Bank and the National Bank of Commerce
and other financial institutions,
with which it lias recently allied itself,
has many interests in common, conducting
large Joint account transactions with
them, especially in recent years, and having
what virtually amounts to an understanding
not to compete, which is defended
as a principle of 'banking ethics." Together
they have, with a few exceptions,
pre-empted the banking business of the
important railways of the country.''
Control of Security Issues.
Discussing the control of issues of securities
by this so-called money trust, the
report said:
"Through their power and domination
over so many of the largest financial Institutions,
which, as buyers, underwriters.
distributers or investors, constitute
the principal first outlets for security issues.
the inner group and its allies have
drawn to themselves praet eally the sole
marketing ,,f the is>ues of the gieater
railroad, producing1 and trading and public
utility corporations, which in consequence
have no open market to which to
appeal: and from this position of vantage,
fortified by the control exerted by them
through voting trusts, representation in
directorates, stockholders, fiscal agencies
and other relations, they have been
able In turn to direct the deposits and
other patronage of such corporations to
these same financial institutions, thereby
strengthening the Instructions through
which they work."
The report condemned interlocking directories
and consolidations, and devoted
considerable space to a statement showing
the development of control through
those agencies in New York institutions.
The report condemns the upe of voting
trusts in the control of financial institutions,
and criticises private bankers
in the capacity of depositaries for interstate
corporations.
Committee's Recommendations.
The recommendations of the committee,
as set forth in the report, and as
embraced In the bills accompanying the
report urged the following reforms':
"Clearing house associations of which
national banks are members should be
required to become bodies corporate of
the states in which they are located, and
every solvent and properly managed hank
or trust company should have the right,
enforceable at law, to become and remain
a member.
"Regular periodical examinations of
members by a committee of the clearing
house association should be proliibixd.
and instead all such examinations should
be conducted by public authorities.''
Tiie committee would give the government
supervision of clearing house certificates,
and would prohibit the fixing
of rates by clearing houses for the collection
of out-of-town checks, discount or
interest on deposits.
As to the New York stock exchange the
committee recommended:
"That Congress prohibit the transmission
by the mails or by telegraph or
telephone from one slate to another of
orders to buy or sell or quotations or
other information concerning transactions
on any stock exchange, and also
prohibit national banks' from buying or
selling or lending upon the security of
stocks or bonds listed on any stock exchange,
unless such exchange were 'a
body corporate of the state or territory
in which it is located.'
Requires Complete Disclosures.
"Require corporations whose securities
it (the stock exchange) lists." the report
continues, "to make a complete disclosure
of their affairs, in particular any
commission paid to promoters, middlemen
or hankers out of any such security
interest or the proceeds thereof.
"Require a margin of not less than -*0
per cent on all purchases of stock.
"Prohibit, as far as possible, the execution
of simultaneous or substantially

same person or persons to buy and sell
the same security for the purpose of
creating an appearance of activity therein.
and any orders the purpose of which
is to inflate or depress the price of any
security.
"Prohibit members from pledging securities
purchased and carried for a cus- 1
tomer for an amount greater than the
unpaid fortune of the purciiase price,
whether with or without consent of such
customer.
"Prohibit members from lending to
other members securities carried by the
former for customers, whether with or
without the customer s consent.
"State in its charter the conditions on
which issues of securities shall be ad- <
mltted or removed from the trading list,
and provide for a judicial review of its
action in this regard.
"Keep books of account showing the
actual names and transactions of custom- <
ers, and give access thereto to the Postmaster
General."
Restricts National Banks.
Among the recommendations for the restriction
of national banks the committee
set forth twenty-two regulations. These
were:
"The prohibition of the consolidation of
two or more banks without the approval
of the controller of the currency; prohibi- <
tion of directors serving on the boards
of more than one bank in the same community
or locality; forbidding ownership
of stock In one national bank by any
other bank or trust company; forbidding
voting trusts in the control of banks;
providing for cumulative voting in the
election or national nana mreciors; iorbtddlng
seetirlty holding companies as
adjuncts to national banks; forbidding interstate
corporations from constituting
any banking establishment their sole
fiscal agents; forbidding interstate corporation
to deposit funds with 'unsupervised.
unregulated private bankers';
forbidding national banks from engaging
in underwriting syndicates; allowing
national banks to invest 155 per
cent of tlsrir capital in state, city, county
or corporation mortgage bonds, if the corporation
issues have paid interest regularly
for five years; reform of the system
of railroad reorganization to conform
with the scheme outlined in the British
law, which places reorganization under
the control of the courts, giving tlie interstate
commerce commission the power
to supervise reorganization plans; placing
railroad security issues under the control
of the commission and providing for
competitive bidding for such Issues, forbidding
officers of national banks front
borrowing from their banks; providing
for publicity for loans made by a director
from his bank; forbidding national bank
officers and directors from participating
in underwriting syndicates; making it a
crime for officers or directors to accept
any compensation for loaning a bank's
funds; limiting the number of directors of
national banks to not less than five nor
more than thirteen; providing publicity
for the assets and for the stockholding
lists of national banks."
AMUSEMENTS.
Miss Tyler as Juliet.
One of the really delightful performances
given by the MaeLean-Manfonl
Shakespearean Company at the Columbia
Theater this week was that of "Romeo
and Juliet" last evening, with Miss Odette
Tyler as Juliet, a role in which she has
an established reputation. Miss Tyler's
characterization of the hapless maiden

well Is a beautiful one and discloses
the artistry of one who has been a close
student of the role and has the histrionic
ability to bring out its delicate
charms. While the heaviness of Mr.
MacLean's Romeo lacked the prime
essentials that appeal for sympathetic appreciation,
It was nevertheless marked
with many points of merit. Mr. Hanford
made a capital Mercutio and deservedly
shared the applause of the evening, while
In the role of the nurse Miss Drofnah lost
her own pleasing personality and appealed
with a c'.ever simulation of the qualities
that individualize the motherly nurse.

Polk Miller's Kecital.
Folk Miller, whose reputation as an exponent
of ante-helium features of southern
plantation life is countrywide, assisted
by Col. Tom Booker and a quartet of "oled
singers taken from tlie tobacco factories
of Richmond, entertained a large and enthusiastic
audience at odd Fellows' Hall
last evening. Mr. Miller was introduced
by Representative John R. Hamb of Virginia.
and Col. Booker by Representative
John W. !>angley of Kentucky. Especially
delightful were the plantation melodies
of the quartet and Mr. Miller's
banjo playing, although the performance
throughout had a charm of its own
which appealed strongly to the appreciation
of the audience.
