BANKERS FOR M'NARY BILL IN CONGRESS GROUP NO. 1 OF STATE ASSOCIA TION MEET AT LINCOLN YESTERDAY. SCHNEIDER IS ViCE PRESIDENT C. S. Aldrich of Elmwood Presents Resolution Urging Support of Farm Aid Act Pending. From Friday's raily A resolution urging upon the mem bers of congress from Nebraska that j they use their best efforts to secure an early consideration and passage of the MeNary-Haugen bill was' 'adopted unanimously by Group No. l! of the Nebraska Bankers' association j j Thursday afternoon. There was no j debate upon it, but speakers had 'previously suggested that it repre-' :s?nts a square deal to the farmer and! that he is entit'ed to the aid of arti-1 ; ficial price- making as well as the! eastern manufacturer by means of aj ' high tariff. The resolution was presented by! c. 14. Aldrich as a supplement to thej report of the resolutions committee, j j These resolutions urged the develop- ! ment of the county bankers' associa- ; tion. the further continuance of thej poiicy of combining the weak banks with strong ones; thr.t every board j of directors meet at least every nine ty days to go over paper: that the state banking department is of suf ficient importance to justify is be ing Begregaed from all other state ac tivities and that all fees collected be spent in its support; that all appli :Tion:5 for charters for new banks be passed upan by the guaranty fund commission with power to appoint its; own examine rs; that the law as to I double liability of stockholders be amended so as to provide that it shall attach as a lien upon property: a:; soon as the bank is closed; that' the commission be give n power to j withhold payment to depositors in' failed banks for a year in order to! secure better collection of assets, and; deprecating the payment of morel than 4 per cent on six months tune certificates in the district. George Liggett of Utica was elect .(' president; Henry A. Schneider of Piattamouth, vice president, and J. A. Sir. of DcWitt. secretary. Shop Taik For Bankers J. Id. Helling!?, vice president of tb Intr-State National of Kansas City, gave a short talk to the bank- ers. He described pioneer conditions and past pantos and told his hearers that they had not seen any real hard tnves. He added that thev never would cee .'8 bad ones a3 in the past j because of the ircrease in national wealth and the bettor r.bility of thej banking system to handle finances. He said that deposits were lower than in wartimes for the very good j reason that products are not selling, for what they did then. and quoted comparative ngures 10 snow inai show that: this is true, as well as that present prices for farm products are gener - ully higher than in 1921, when every body thought the times were good. He said that the hanker ought to realize his responsibility more. He makes his money by people going in- to debt, and quite often he has en - eouraged men to go into debt. He said there is no need to get panicky, During good times banks paid from 10 to 50 per cent yearly dividends, Now that bank rtock is no longer eagerly sought for. it is up to the bankers to make good with their de posttors. He said a number of banks in his section had made assessments j as high. 300 per cent in order to furnish the banking capital needed and which iiad been dissipated by i buing bad paper and making bad ! loans. Some of the frozen stuff will come back in a few years he pre-,' dieted. Mr. Hellings said the bankers! should economize, even if necessary j to cut their own salaries and set an J example for those they are advising I to exercise thrift. Mr. Hellings was! loudly applauded when he praised : President Coolidge and a similar! outburst occurred when he spoke of congressmen who were afraid to vote their convictions. When Dan V. Stephens took the floor a little later he defended congress as representing the people. Bankers' Farm Plan Mr. Stephens presented in detail the plan of the Nebraska Bankers' lassdclatlon to aid the farming imius- i try in the state. He urged support; of the society The of the that it program of the state dairy also. basic idea is that th" object , state in creating a bank is; may serve the public, and the i of the bankers' program to; object make the farm customers of the bank profitable. It involves the furnish- me: by each hanK or advice and coun- to farmers In their operations, j The larger ones are to do this by em-; olovir.'-r specially qualified men to do it and the smaller In.nks which . m , l have been doing this in a way are to this work more systematically. plan jr. Stephens said that the banker .Vh0 holds the notes of farmers must , ,iecid" whether he wants tbe farmer to f;en out or dig out. Selling out a J farmer leaves either a vacant farm lor creates the necessity of helping somebody else take it over. Whj not help the man now on it. he ask- cd. Ha tie and If the business of feeding cat hogs is in knowing how ts buy. Most larmers do not have ex perience enough to enable them to do this siicceosiuily. This plan will furnish him experienced help. The sneaker gave a number of in stances out ol his own experience to prove the value and need of such service. He said that emphatically It paid the bankers. The plan has the backing of the state college of agri culture and Dean Burnett has pledg ed the full co-operation of the ex tension department. He said that the bankers have two or three years Of uphill work ahead, but if they will refrain from getting excited and work hard they will be back on the old footing. H. A. Schneider of the Pluttsniouth State bank and H. F. Patterson and T. H. Pollock of the Farmers State bank were in attendance at the meet- in;,-. A REAL SNAKE SCABE From Friday's naily Monday morning Mrs. J. Kimb?:!l got a real shock. She was going up the stairs to her hair dressing parlor, and when she had only four more steps to climb, a snake two feet long made a jump down the stairs and landed on the step she was standing ion. It stayed, but Mrs. Kimball didn't. She said she fairly flew down the stain; and told some men who were on the sidewalk about the intruder, and they armed themselves and went up and disposed of it. We are thinking that Mrs. Kimbal never faints, or she weuld nave tak en advantage of that shock to have keeled over and had a serious fall. The stairs are located about in the center of the block, and it seems strange the snake could lind its way up there, can. -Weeping Water Republi- 'OLD GRAD' WRITES LETTER TO THE GRADUATING CLASS Eugene F.
