Additional losses amounting to
somewhat less than $G, 000. 000 caus

fraakes a total of approximately 15
million dollars depositors in iaueu
state banks will have received.
As a partial offset to the drain the
guaranty fund still has-in prospect,
Secretary Griggs stated that upwards
of 3 million dollars will be realized
from the assets of failed banks,- thus
returning to the fund half of the
money which, it is expected, will be
contributed In making a final clean
up. It will be necessary, however,
Mr. Griggs advised the bankers
group to keep on making special as-,
sessments for the fund during the
next two years in order to raise the
3 milion dollars needed with the like
amount to be realized from the as
sets. Worst is Over
Of the 924 state banks remaining
in Nebraska about 60 are in such
poor shape that they Lave been taken
over by the commission. Ultimately
the depository obligations of these
banks will have to be met out of the
guaranty fund or by arranging con
solidations with other institutions.
The worst is over. Secretary Griggs
said, and what remains now is to
liquidate the liabilities and realize
upon the assets as rapidly as possi

OF HIS CAVE TRAP
Body of Underground Explorer Is
Removed From Beneath Bock
That Held Him Prisoner.
Cave City, Ky., April 22. The
body of Floyd Collins? cave ex
plorer, who died from hunger and
exposure when trapped in Sand cave
late in January, today was freed
from its natural underground prison
and moved from the rock that pinned
it to the ground to the bottom of the
seventy foot shaft, W. H. Hunt,
engineer of Central City,' Ky., said
early tonight.
The body was in good condition
considering the time it had been ex
posed to the underground elements.
Mr. Hunt said. He also announced
that the corpse will be raised from
the shaft to the surface at 9 o'clock
tomorrow morning.
Examination of the rock that fell
on Collins and pinned him in the
death trap showed that It weighed
only seventy-five pounds, Mr. Hunt
said.
Just after two workmen had suc
ceeded in removing the body from
under the small rock, the portion
of the tunnel and lateral in which
the body was found collapsed and
fell from sixty to 100 feet into a pit
directly behind the position where
S3
Swatek
L3
the body had reclined. -Collins had
told rescuers who had crawled to
him in the first days of his entrap
ment that there was a deep pit be
hind him.
Two miners, E. S. Hayes and J.
S. Smith of Central City, were the
oirly ones who ventured into the
death trap today. They reported
that there were chicken bones and
scraps of food by the side of the
explorer, which disproved early ru-
rmors that no food had been taken
within Collins' reach.
Mr. Hunt explained that the body
which was released at 6 o'clock was
left in the shaft tonight because he
did not have material to lift" it to
the surface. Funeral plans have not
been arranged and no member of the
family was at the cave "when the
body was released. Mr. Hunt said
that following removal tomorrow,
the body would lie in state in the
Baptist church here for a few days.
He said his entire success in re
moving the body and in accomplish
ing what original workers declared
was Impossible, was due entirely to
the power of God. ?

LABOR TANGLE IN THE
UNION PACIFIC FORCES
Chicago, April 24. A labor tangle
which has developed within the or
ganization of the Union Pacific rail
road will be Ironed out next Wednes
day, when officials of the road and
representatives of the steamship and
railway clerks' organisation will ap
pear before the United States railroad
labor board.
The question to be decided is
whether the company union, conduct
ed by the railroad, or the regular
clerks' union shall be considered by
the labor board as the official ograni
zatiOH of the Union Pacific clerks.
When officials of the clerks' union
appeared before the labor board sev -
eral months- ago and requested
changes in certain rules, the railroad
questioned the authority of the men
to represent the clerks. The coiitro-
versy has been hanging fire since
that time.

Paris, April 22; Edouard Herriot,
former premier, was elected to me'
1 moo w
coveted presidency of the chamber of;ment for ec0nomic scholarships in
deputies today In one or tne stormiest
sessions ever staged there. He suf-'
fered a studied affront from the op
position, however, as M. "Herriot was
the only candidate who failed of elec
tion on the first ballot, his supporters
larking 13 of constituting a majority
of the chamber membership, neces
sary for a quorum.
On the so'-end ballot he stood 2C7
to 1, the negative vote, which was
cast by M. Herriott himself
Upset President's Chair
Fist fighting" is no novelty in the
French lower house, but today the
presiding officer expressed the great
est indignation that the deputies
should carry their rioting into the
rostrum itself, even upsetting the
chair of the president, who imme
diately donned his silk hat as a sig
nal that the seseiou was suspended.
This happened during the second
balloting when Deputy Balanant
charged 10 deputies had voted twice.
Two socialist deputies attacked him
and the fight became general.
The cabinet triumvirate, Painteve,
Caillaux and Briand, face the senate
tomorrow and will ask for a vote of
confidence on the ministerial dec
laration presented yesterday.
Hostility to Cafflaux
M. Caillaux will appear before a
body, half of the members of which
sat in judgment upon him when he
was sentenced to imprisonment and
exile and stripped of his civil rights.
Though it is expected the senators
will be reasonably psarefnl there is
no concealment that a strong hostil
ity to Caillaux exists in the upper
house. ,
The senate is credited with the in
tention of following tradition and al
lowing the new ministry to show
definite plans and specific acts before
it passes judgment. M. Caillaux' tac
tics in refusing to become involved
in the controversy in the chamber
yesterday over his past are taken as
proof that he will confine himself to
financial matters before the senate,
if he speaks at all.

Failure of the officials to reach an
agreement with Willie Ritola, the
famous Finnish distance runner, for
his appearance, has proved some
what of a disappointment to the
fans, but an attempt was being made
to find another man to pace Joie Ray
in the special race previously sche
duled between Ray and Ritola.

BUDGET DIRECTOR
REGARDED AS OGRE
Chicago, April 22. Herbert Lord,
director general of the federal bud
get, feels himself looked upon in
Washington as a sort of official ogre
that sits on the government's cash
box.
In his address before the Chicago
Association of Commerce today, Gen
eral Lord said his job was an un
popular one because the budget bu-
reau pruned $1,203,771,929 from tho
executive estimates.
Hundreds of life and active or
ganizations have been created to get
money out of the federal treasury,"
General Lord declared.
"The bureau, however, created for
the purpose of protecting the treas
ury, stands. alone until at times the
burden seems too much to bear.
"When a director of the budget
becomes popular he should be dis
missed immediately

YHAT AN ALIEN
CAN AND CAN
NOT DO IN STATE
Law Permits Them to Follow Any
Occupation which Does Not Re
quire Oath of Allegiance
Many things an alien ran do and
cannot do in Nebraska have been
listed by Assistant Attorney General
Dort in reply to questions from a
foreign language information erTiee
bureau in New York. His" answers ,
show that an alien cannot vote, tho
he formerly could after declaring an
intention to become a oitizeti. An
alien can own land only condition
ally and for a short period.
An alien cannot carry fire arms
in this st3fe, but he may obtain a
!icen to hunt and fish. He can fol
low any occupation that do;s not
require an oath of allegiance to the
United States". Therefore he may be
a public accountant, an architect,
but he cannot become a tcachor, nor
serve on a jury nor on the police
force to enforce laws of the state.
The only thing a declarant, or
one who has declared his intention
to become a citizen, can do that an
an do that an
do, is to join
aska national
alien outright cannot
the militia or Nbra
guard.
It is the belief of the attorney
general that an alien cannot become
an attorney. The state bar commis
sion will not permit an alien to-take
an examination for admission to the
bar. He might become a druggist,
or physician or surgeon or a regis
tered nurse, if he can comply with
the state law which fixes qualifica
tions, some of them being education
al in nature which must be ar-qtiired
in this country.
An alien may be employed upon
public works or at any ordinary la
bor, but he cannot accept appoint
ment to any public office or official
position created by the laws of this
state. . .. .' .,:;
There is "no express provision, for
aliens in the workmen's compensa
tion law and no court decision as to
whether an alien or his dependents,
whether residing here or in a for
eign country, can receive compensa
tion for an industrial injury.
Section 56S7 of the statutes pro
hibits an alien from owning land
within thi3 state or any leasehold
extending beyond a period of five
years, except as to the widow and
heirs of aliens who acquired lands
prior to March 16, 1SS9. In the lat
ter event they may hold the lands
tor a period or ten years nd no
longer, within which period they
must sell as otherwise the lands re
vert or escheat to the state. It also
provides mat any resident, anen may
acquire uue to lands Dy oevise or
descent only provided such
alien
shall be reauired to sell the Dron
?erty within five years from the date
I licimca ff it it Tovorf o f n tfin cto tft
No exceptions are made in favor of
a declarant.
An alien is probably not entitled
to draw a mother's pension under
the state law.
