Hoard has telegraphed to the Federal
harm Loan Hoard In Washington
urging that the latter speed up its
loans to farmers co-operative associ
ntlor.s in the northwest. This is to
meet an "urgent need," it said.
The message was sent on the
second day of the' board's meeting
here with the committee of 16 that
is organizing the $20,000,000 Farm
ers' National Grain Corporation to
represent the Nation's grain growers
in their dealings with the new fed
eral agency.
iniormatlon developed at our
meeting here indicates urgent need
for loans to permit farmers to hold
wheat in bonded warehouses within
local territory and thus relieve ter
minal congestion and strengthen
prices. Urged that all applications
of Farmers' Co-operative Associa
tions in northwest for immediate
c redit loans for this purpose be acted
upon as rapidly as consistent under
policies now applied by your board
to such matters."
Say Emergency Exists
The message was signed by Alex
ander H. Legge of Chicago, chairman
of the Federal Farm Board. It was
sent because there is an emergency
and the board is not now authorized
to extend the type of loan that would
meet the need, explained Carl Will
iams of Oklahoma City, Okla., a mem
ber, in an interview.
The Federal Farm Board has been
watching: the situation in the north
west and is "seriously concerned" at
the rush of wheat to market, unpre
cedented in the annals of American
wheat, he continued. The board, he
reported, hr.s observed the wheat
crop or the southwest being forced
ii'to diversion to northern storage
terminals and has been earnestly
seeking some way to meet the needs
of these grain growers.
The problem.' new is largelv of
storage and the Federal Farm Boar
has practically completed a detailed
estimate of the total amount of grain
storage space that is available in the
United States, Mr. Williams stated
He explained that the board has
done what it could to persuade farm
ers to hold wheat back on their
far:n3 as a wise policy, though it is
well aware that many farmers must
sell now on account of pressure of
debts.
Facts Prompt Telegram
The board knows that many co
operatives have successfully nego
tiated with federal intermediate
credit banks, which are agencies
empowered by law to make the loans
they now need, he pointed out. As a
consequence of these facts and the
situation as discussed here in the
meeting between the Federal Farm
Board and the organizers of the new
?2(i,uno.uo'J gram marketing co
operative association, the telegram
was sent t othe Farm Loan Board,
Mr. Williams said.
On the second day of the meeting
a committee of three wa3 named by
tae farmers to write articles of In
corporation and by-laws. They were
to be so prepared that the corpora
tion would unquestionably be eligible
for loans under the new Federal
Marketing Act.
C. E. Hull of Salina. Kan., was
named as chairman of this commit
tee. The other members were S. J.
Cottington of Stanhope, la., and John
Manley cf Enid, Okla.
The next step, after the committee
of lC approves the legal set-up. will
be to select the officers and directors
who are to establish the corporation
and then to Incorporate.
Mr. Williams said that at the pres
ent rate of progress he thought the
new co-operative association would
be completed and eligible for loans
from the Federal Farm Board's vast
resources within one month.
Groups Favor Corporation
William II. Settle, president of the
Indiana Farm Bureau Federation,
reported that members of the
farm officials' committee had unani
mously statod that their groups
strongly favored the new corpora
tion. There will be no difficulty what
ever, he said, in raising the initial
capital to start It.
One-fifth of the total amount to bo
subscribed must come from the or
ganizations of farmers and from in
dividual farmers, the Federal Farm
Board specified here one month ago,
when more than 50 representatives of
600.000 farmers decided to go ahead
with the board's suggestion that they
organize a corporation to market
their grain and to represent them
in dealing with the Federal Govern
ment.
Members of the Federal Farm
Board came here from Washington
to sit in an the organization meetings
and to offer counsel and suggestions
as to how the corporation can beBt
be established to meet the board's re
quirements, when the question of
lending from the $500,000,000 fed
eral revolving fund arises.
Observers comment that the ses
sions constitute an achievement in
diplomacy, because various groups
represented on the organization com
mittee have been carrying on with
programs that were not in unity with
each other.

Private detectives In New York
announced Friday night that they
were closing in on C. D. Waggoner,
president of the Bank of Telluride,
Colo., whom they Intended to ar
rest in connection with a financial
manipulation which placed to his
credit in New York 500 thousand
dollars belonging to six Denver
banks, according to an Associated
Press dispatch.
Mr3. Waggoner, wife of the bank
er, arrived in Denver late Friday.
She said she had last seen her hus
band at Lincoln Thursday. He put
her on a train there. Bhe said, and
told her he was going east.
Sends Wire for Him.
Mrs. Waggoner said she knew
nothing of the financial transaction
for which her husband is sought.
A mesnage, signed by Waggoner,
was sent by his wife from W ray.
Colo., to the Bank of Telluride,
dvising that he had provided funds
to pay off depositors. The telegram
was in cede. .Mrs. Waggoner said
she knew nothing of its
and that she had filed the tele
gram at her husband's direction.
Mrs. Waggoner said she met her
husband Tuesday at Cheyenne. He
came there by train and she had
driven there in her car. They drove
to North Plate, Nebr., arifving there
Wednesday morning. From there
they went to Grafton, Neb., where
they drove around and visited old
friends. They drove thence to York,
Neb., and reached Lincoln Thursday.
There Waggoner put her on the train
for Denver, she said, and told her
he wa going east.
A di.-patch from New York Fri
day night said that Assistant United
States Attorney Hastings had drawn
up a charge of grand larcency againBt

' The formal complaint was made
by the Harrimac National - bank.
one of the six New York banks which
obeyed telegraphic orders apparently
coming from their correspondent
banks in Denver last Friday, on
which they set up the half million
dollar credit.
Waggoner was born and reared in
Grafton and had visited there every
three or four months during the 30
years since he left for Telluride. He
owns a 400-acre farm near Garfton.
He etopped in Grafton for about
an hour, going up and down , the
main street and shaking hands with
friends.
Back in Day or Two.
"I'll probably bo back in a day or
two, as I have to go on now," he
said.
He seemed about as usual, his old
friends at Grafton said. They ob
served nothing at all unusual about
Ms conduct. lie was highly regarded
at Grafton.
Mrs. Waggoner was with him in
new tan Studebaker coupe.
To a Grafton banker friend Wag
goner said that the banking business
ia Telluride was poor. "Deposits
have fallen off greatly, about 80 per
cent." he said.
Officials of the detective agency
in New York retained by the Amer
ican Bankers' association said their
operatives in the west had traced
Waggoner, knew where he was go
ing, and arrest was expected when
he reached that unnamed destination.
On August 30. while Waggoner
was on his way from Denver to New
York, six New York bankB received
code telegrams purporting to be from
six Denver banks requesting them to
place a total of 500 thousand dol
lars to the credit of the Telluride
bank in the Chase National bank of
New York.
Said Business Poor.
This was done, and last Saturday
man who satisfied officials of the
Chase bank that he was Waggoner
presented cashier's checks on the
Telluride bank and had thera cer
tified. After he departed the Den
ver banks heard of the transaction
and denied they had sent the tele
grams. Then the search for Wag
goner began.
Before he disappeared the man
representing himself to be Waggon
er, using the certified cashier's
checks, paid off a 250 thousand dol
lar note of the Bank of Telluride
and a personal note of 60 thousand
dollars held by the Central Han
over bank, ordered 10 thousand dol
lars sent to the Bank of Telluride
and bought a banker's check for
180 thousand dollars which, so far
as is known, has not been cashed.
The Telluride bans, which had
deposits of more than one million
dollars when the town was boom
ing but has only 350 thousand dol
lars now, was placed In the hands
of state bank examiners Friday.

Plan to Erect
New Bridge at
Louisville Soon
Structure Estimate to Cost 175,
000 to Half of - Costa
Paid by Tolls
Residents of Louisville are plan
ning to have the old time wooden
bridge that has spanned the Platte
river north of that city, replaced by
a modern steel and concrete struc
ture that will be adequate to handle
the traffic and will also be able to
withstand the force of the water and
ice in the spring breakup of the
Platte, as the old wooden bridge has
been placed out of commission al
most every spring when the ice moves
out of the river.
The plana for the new bridge are
being pushed by an organization to
be known as the Louisville Bridge
Co., and the articles of incorporation
have been drawn for the new bridge
organization and include in the in
corporators the following: R. II.
Hastain. president; Dr. E. H. Wort
man, vice-pereident; L. J.- Mayfield,
secretary; P. H. Nichols, treasurer,
and E. Q. Pautsch and H. A. Sch
neider, the latter of Plattsmouth.
It is the intention to erect the
bridge, charge tolls until one-half
of the cost of the $175,000 bridge
is paid for, and it is then to be
turned over to the counties of Cass
and Sarpy to be operated as a toll
free bridge, one half of the cost of
the bridge being paid by the state
of Nebraska.
The new bridge will be nearly
1,600 feet long and will have a
twenty foot roadway Instead of the
narrow roadway that exists on the
present bridge. It Is the intention
to have the new bridge erected near
the site of the present bridge.
The work on the structure will
probably start the next thirty days
and it is hoped to have the bridge
ready for use by spring and making
a modern and safe means of cross
ing the Platte, and is a badly needed
