PN i EXPLAINS PARADOX INLOAN MEASURE Mrs. Archibald Hopkins Shows How Bill Will Help Poor Man. ' Pointing out that the “Commis- sioners’ bjll” to permit pawnbroking in the District (known as H.R. - 15015) will meet the present situ- ation here intelligently, and criti- cising certain points in suggested changes to that bill, Mrs. Archibald Hopkins, a member of the citizens® committee on remedial legislation, is- sued the following gtatement: “Although it gounds like a paradox for the citizens' committee on reme- dial loan law to seek to aid poor borrowers by the passage of the Commissioners® bill, H.R. 5015, making the rate 2 per cent per month, in- stead of the 1 per cent to which it is limited in the present law, this rate will really be & reduction, be- cause such borrowers cannot now get the money at all without going to Yirginia for it, and paying 3 per cent, and they cannot get it then Unless they have diamonds, watches or jewelry to put up as security. “The present law was asked for | to enavle small borrowers to get money at 2 per cent on_ indorsed Inmcu or other security; and there ls WTH “CALIORNI I SHRLP" Even Cross, Feverish, Sick Children Love its Fruity Taste and it cannot Injure Little Stomachs. no reason why a man who is in urgent need of $20 should not be allowed to borrow it at that rate on a note indorsed by a fellow em- ploye, instead of being obliged to put up his watch, and go without the use of it until the money is repaid, and pay 3 per cent for the money, as he will be if the “pawn- brokers’ bill” Mr. Focht Is insist- ing on is passed. “In the Congressional Record of August 7, 1911, it was stated by one of the House members that pawn- brokers were to be included In the bill which became the present law because the House District committee considered the rate of 3 per cent they were then getting eaorbitant, and would limit them to 2 per cent. Mr. Focht, on February 12, 1912, and after the pawnbrokers hal peen taken in, voted to reduce the rate from the 2 per cent asked for by the citizens’ committee and approved by the Com- missioners to 1 per cent. “It is a still greater paradox. there- fore, why Mr. Focht should now in- Hurry, mother! et Isfotten it that “California Fig Syrup” today may prevent a sick child tomorrow.

C, WEDNESDAY, AMERICAN STARS VISIT HOLY LAND TO FILM THE - STORY OF KING DAVID By the Assoclated Press, JERUSALEM, March 10.—Twenty stars of the American film world arrived in Jerusalem recently to prepare for the filming of the Old Testament story of King David. The big scene in the play is to be the fight between David and Goliath, which will be staged a few miles Go Wrong, north of this city. Bibical accuracy ‘t!h not a!rlc:ly to be adhered to, since e scenarlo provides a love scene = after the battle. sy About 5,000 persons are to be em- ployed in:the fiiming of the play; 5,000 sheep, 1,000 camels and 2,000 goats are aiso to be used. This will be the first time a pro- duction of this magnitude has been flimed in the Holy Land. Apart from the appropriateness of the country for the filming of biblical stories, it s declared that Palestine is un- surpassable for fllm productions, owing, first to fts natural beauty, and, second, to the clarity of the atmosphere. — missioners, who say such a rat the District is unnecessary, without ng any provision for loans exce) b.}_’llfuwnhrukors, e seems plain that the only intel- ligent way of meeting the siustiomn 18 by passing the Commissioners' bill, allowing the 2 per cent originally asked for on loans of all kinds, under 2 law which has been proved to be Wwise and effective in_every way, ex- cept as to the rate of 1 per cent, for Which Mr. Focht voted. “Mr. Gillett, Mr. Kahn, Mr, Long- worth, Mr. Langley and Mr. Towner When Things Logiclally—a man won’t take the blame for another’s error Stockett-Fiske Buildin, 7 ¥ MARCH 22, 1922. Who Gets the Blame? FOREXAMPLE A bookbinder agrees to furnish you with blank books. He pro- bably does only the bookbinding. Another firm may do the ruling and a third the printing. With so many concerns involved, mistakes and delays are likely to be en- countered. Then they play the game called “passing the buck.” On the other hand, we make blank books from start to finish in our own plant. Perfect co- operation and the absence of rivalry minimize errors and eliminate delay. “Aberdeen” Oxfords —of tan Russia calf —of imported Scotch grain —of black wax calf —of black Russia calf We Assume Full Responsibility for Every Order STOCKETT all voted for 2 per cent.
