State Treasurer- Bass went to
Grand Island Tuesday evening to at
tend the meeting of the Nebraska
grand lodge of Odd Fellows. A state
ment by him regarding the payment
of a service charge to banks for car
ing for more than $4,000,000 of state
funds on deposit will be made pub
lic Wednesday, he said. He made no
advance statement' regarding the re- i
port that he had amended his oiler
and now proposes to pay banks a
service charge of 1 percent, which
is the maximum' authorized by act
of the legislature.
The recent investment of 1,200,
000 of state funds, in government
bonds, made as a result of the re
fusal of- banks' to pay 2 percent in
terest on state deposits and at the
same time furnish bonds for security
of deposits and receive only one-half
of 1 percent from the treasurer as
a service -charge? it is now pointed
out could be transferred to the state
board of educational lands and funds
as an investment of state school
funds. The government bonds bear
ing 3 percent went tiown 9 points,
it is, alleged and,, it .the state, should
need the money instead of the bonds
it might have to sell them at a dis
count upon the open market. It is
now alleged that -another way would
be to sell the . bonds to the state
board of educational lands and funds
and let the state school funds carry
the Investment which nets 3 percent
to the holder.
MAN OF MILLIONS IS DEAD
Cleveland Samuel Mather, whose
name is -linked with the greatest of
the empire builders of the last cen
tury, died suddenly at his home here
early Sunday, His death removes one
of the strongest figures of the na
tion's iron and steel industry, and
since 1883 a powerful influence in
the vast empire of mining, shipping
and manufacturing centered in the
Great Lakes region. Little known
in a public way, Mr. Mather contri
buted a fortune to philanthropies and
was one of the country's wealthiest
men.
Small, with keen bright eyes, he
moved quietly in financial and pbil
anthroplcal works. He avoided in
terviewers and publicity and for that
reason the bulk of his benefactions
probably never will be known. His
gifts in education, music and medi
cine in Cleveland are known to have
exceeded $7,000,000.
He fought with proponents of the
recently collapsed billion dollar mer
ger of the Youngstown Sheet and
Tube and Bethlehem Steel corpor
ation. Holder of 60.000 shares of
Sheet and Tube stock, he took sides
against his fellow townsman, Cyrus
S. Eaton, and his brother, W. U.
Mather.'
