PAGE SIX PLATTSMOUTH SZMI - WEEKLY JOTTER AL MONDAY, JAN. 26. 1931. BELIEF FOE THE VETERANS Washington Administrator Hines directed the veterans' bureau regional managers Friday to "co-operate to the fullest extent in extending relief which has been applied for and is due among veterans" In drouth stricken areas. Listing the twenty one states where distress is most serious, General Hines ordered the managers to "devote their entire en ergy to accelerate the adjudication of disability allowance claims before their officers and the granting of loans to veterans who have applied to them so that such payments are due may be made without delay." It is important, he said, that vet erans in greatest need in these areas be given primary attention. At the same tune the administration sug nested thev co-operate with the Red iu oui oy me umu uuu sauie rouuiut Cross to relieve distress conditions. tee were advanced for third read- ing: Prison for Banker Who Violated Law Henry S. VesT brook Held to Have Received Deposits Knowing Bank Insolvent Henry S. Westbrook. Otoe county farmer who occupied tne position of vice president of the Dunbar State bank after its president. Tom Mur ray, had lied to avoid tbe co lsequen ces of illegTl operation i t thi insti tution, lost in supreme c urt Friday. He had appealed from a conviction and sentence cf one ti two ye ira Murray is now serving a long prii term. After Murray ' pear Westbrook got a letter firm hint telling him t; take charge ari'l di recting him what to do with certain affairs. Westbrook claimed that iiis connection had n I been such as to make him aw.ire i hat the hank was insolvent when he pted for de- posit from Henry Kasbohm a draft for $1,462. The state product d evidence to show that West brock's connection was muc1' mcrt active than he T- ( started to be true. The court say? this proves that he had often signed papers for tie bank, was in charge when Murray was absent, ar.d that he was for yenrs familiar with the bank's condition. Tt s.ty.3 that in view of the present record it is inconceivable thai Westbrcik di 1 not know of the in.-lvent condition of ! the brnk when he accepted the de posit. The banking department had called attention to unsecured 1 ans and its low reserve fund, and do- j fendant know of Ineffectual efforts to j secure more loans end that raanv 1 notes could not be collected. A bank examiner testified that on the day the deposit was received the la lvr ency of the bank was $194,000. Kasbohm testified that after the bank had closed he remonstrated j with Westbrook for taking Ins money. and that Westbrook admitted he knew j the bunk was then insolvent, but that the bank needed the money an 1 that was why he took it. The court says that if Westbrook did not. know ; the bank was insolvent he was charg ed in law with that knowledge be- j cause of his control of its affairs. lne court holds that thera is no merit in the contention that the law under which he was convicted is not constitutional because of defects in the title, which described it as an act to establish the civil administra tion code.

Representative Porter, father of the bill, said that if this is to be a l relief giving legislature, this meas " lure is a good place to start. He de- .jelared that farmers in communities where the pheasant is too plentiful, say immense damage to crops is be iing done. The law abiding farmer ! hesitates to kill even for self pro tection when such killing would brand him as a breaker of laws. Not all farmers, however, take this view, jhe said.

Million will Need Red Cross Aid February 1 Number Will Include More Than One Fourth of the Popula tion of Arkansas Washington, Jan. 23. Relief calls to the Red Cross for food and cloth ing during the past few days have been so ereat that Chairman Payne today said close to a million people would need aid by February 1. "Our reports today show we are oaring for 687,034," Payne said. "Our field workers in the one state of Arkansas alone estimate figures 550 thousand persons will be on the Red Cross rolls in that state by February 1. This is more than one-quarter of the entire population of the state. "Relief has been extended to a number of counties in West Virginia. Virginia, Alabama and Ohio by the national organization in tne past few days, as the local resources of the community and the chapters were ex hausted. "The magnitude of this task for caring tor uroutn sunerers. and tne acute need for the relief fund of 10 million dollars which the Red Cross has asked for. can be comprehended when a comparison is mae with the relief work by the Red Cross in the Mississippi valley flood in 1927. "At the very height of that em- jergency 600 thousand persons were cared for by the Red Cross. Today are helping within 50 thousand oi inai numner ana our worsen tell me we will be giving food, cloth- ing and other types or reiiet to ai- in s- a million persons by February u calls continue to mount at tne rate csiaousneu in tne past iew days." Contributions to the Red Cross 10 million dollar relief fund were booster! to SI. 264, 000 today. The United States Steel corporation and its subsidiaries have appropri ated 50 thousand dollars for the Red Croa I relief work, it was announced at N v York. As a result of the radio appeal last night by President Hoover, Nebraska women will be made eli gible for jury service by the pres ent legislature, in the opinion of State Senator John W. Cooper of Omaha, advocate of giving women the right to serve as jurors. "Apparently there will not be serious opposition to the pro posal to permit women to serve on juries in Nebraska," Senator Cooper said. "Of course, the law will be worded so as to give women who should not serve an op portunity to be excused by the court. Women with small chil dren, school teachers, nurses and women with similar respon sibilities must of necessity be excused from jury duty." Senator Cooper said that in states where women serve on juries, lawyers and judges alike were well pleased with them as jurors.
