DECISION IN BANK
LAW LEAVES A HOLE
Under the Decision Competition For
Deposits May Again Grow Un
less Law is Amended.
Bankers are of the opinion that
if the 6upreme court adheres to its
recent holding that the guaranty
furifl can be held liable for deposits
made where the bankers individually
agrees to pay excess interest it will
be necessary to secure amendment of
the law at the coming session if
serious menace to the fund is to be
removed.
The state will file a motion for
rehearing, but has practically held
to the same doctrine, it is not likely
that it will reverse Itself. This time
however, the court was very plain in
i . ... .
i holding that such a practice is not
only proper, but that it may save the
'guaranty fund from loss by opening

The statute prohibits any bank
from paying more than 5 per-cent
interest on deposits, necessary in or
,ier to limit the competition between
bankers for money. The supreme
court has held that where the bank
agrees to pay more than 5 per cent
interest the deposit becomes a loan
and the owner is not subject to re-
, imbursement from the guaranty
fund. Under its late holding, it re
moves, in part, the bar against com
petition for deposits.
not get more money by soliciting de
posits bearing only 5 per cent. Un-
der the court decree, however, there
is opened out the opportunity to go
to another bank or to individual
holders of money and really borrow
on the security of the guaranty fund.
"A hard pressed banker," paid one
expert, "can go to a man with money
or to another bank and say, 'You put
SoO.000 in my bank. I will issue a
i certificate of deposit for that amount.
carrying i per cent, and if we go
broke you will get your money back
from the fund. Personally, I will
pay you 3 per cent more, and give
you my check now for the interest
As the court viewa it this side con
tract does not remove the deposit
rrom tho protection of the guaranty
fund, since all the bank is paying is
5 per cent. And if the banker, with
out the knowledge of the depositor
charges this excess interest back to
the bank, the court says his miscon
duct is not imputed to the deposi
tor."
This is the law as the supreme
court now finds it to be. The legis
lature may forbid such excess inter
est contracts if it wishes.

. Coolidge's Message.
President Coolidge in his litft ;
nipssacfi to congress is believed to
have had this matter in mind when
he stated that the 'efficiency of state
governments is impaired as they re-
linquish and turn over to the fedrr;:!
government responsibilities which
are rightfully theirs." .
The president declared he is op-
posed to any expansion of this policy.
and he expressed the conviction it
can be reversed.

Under these acts approximately

Alex Weddle. whose father was
killed bv the band of Indians, wa
the first white child born in Ne
braska. The Weddles located near the
mouth of the Nemaha in the early
fifties. Alex Weddle is still living
near Miller, Nebraska.
Allen Edwards father located nea
the Missouri in the early fifties, and
was the first ordained minister in this
territory. This of course, was many
vears before Nemaha county wa
known. It was in the early fifties
and the state of Nebraska was not
admitted into the union until 1869
Many interesting details might be
narriated but one of striking interest
is brought to light by an old ac
quaintance of Allen Edwards.
Had Not Been Whipped.
Fighting Indians never seemed to
put any fear in the white man, and
this held true with Mr. Edwards. Al
though he had been scalped he had
not been whipped, and every time
he saw an India'n in after years he
wanted to kill him on sight.
One day while in Brownville two o
the red skins appeared in the city on
their ponies wrapped in their high
colored blankets. Mr. Edwards was
known to take a swig now and then
and that day he had taken a drink or
two which seemed to raise his
ire and he proceeded to his Indian
friends and tore their beautiful
blankets into shreds before the of
ficers could calm him.
The death of Mf. Edwards ends a
chapter of wonderful interesting
early day life coupled with Indian
fighting that causes a shudder to
come over one as he listens to the
rehearing of the details. Auburn

The Christian church of this city

fund that is being raised in the state
churches to aid in the work of the
college. The amount of the endow
ment is $1,000,000 and is being tak
en up with the greatest Interest over
the state and nation.
A county organization has been
established with headquarters at
Weeping Water and W. Hugh Fletch
er, will be here in the county to aid
in the campaign and will be in this
city to attend the meeting here on
Sunday. There will be a large num
ber of the notable leaders of the
church here for the day including J.
T. Corwine, former major of Topeka,
Kansas, and a minister of the
church; Mrs. II. H. Harmon of Lin
coln, wife of the pastor of the First
church of that city; W. J. Evans of
Indianapolis, one of the best known
clergymen of the central states; Pet
er Cope, a widely known religious
leader, and Rev. S. R. Bradley of
Weeping Water, and the Weeping
Water male quartet will also be
: present to take part in the meeting
here as will also Mr. Fletcher, the
county leader
The public will be interested in
learning of some of the splendid re
sults of the work of Cotner college
which has a record of having one in
55 graduates of the college in "Who's
Who in America," while the general
average is one in 200 graduates in
the United States.
Cotner college has given six col
lege presidents to the nation, four
now acting in Christian colleges.
Thirty-eieht university, college and
normal school professors, eighty-four
high school and grade teachers car
rying A. E. degrees.
In the field of religion, the college
ha9 furnished three national secre
taries, 300 ministers, 53 missionar
ies. 22 instructors in Christian col
leges and 471 engaged in special re
ligious work.
Twenty-eight per cent of the col
lege students coming from the
Christian colleges of America furnish
90 per cent of the leaders of Chris
tisn and educational work.
Eighty-five per cent of all college
and university presidents come from
Christian colleges.
One of the dominant thoughts re
sulting from the World war and be
ing stressed by America's foremost
thinking men is that Christian edu
cation as emanating from Christian
colleges must be the power that will
bring world peace.
This generation can well be proud
that they are in a larger way achiev
ing more in the bringing about of
inculcation of Christian ideals than
nny generation of any age preceding.
And this is resulting primarily be
cause of the emphasizing of Chris
tian education.

RADIO CONCERT JARS

"Unless Something is Done We AH
Might m Well Quit," Says
William A. Brady.
New York, Jan. 2. With thous
ands delighted with the first radio
concert by John McCormacK ana
Lucrezia Bori. the theatres of this
city, according to spokesmen, are fac
ing a crisis as a result of the latest
development of free amusement on
the air.
In the first of a series of bi-weekly
concerts, by noted artists, never on
the air before, Mr. McCormack and
Miss Bori, with their golden voices
gave a concert last night through
station WEAF with seven other sta
tions in eastern cities participating
in the broadcasting.
William A. Brady, theatrical pro-
ducer, commenting on what he term
ed this "gorgeous" kfree entertain
ment, asseriea mat rauiu cuusu-
tntes the creatcst menace that the
theatre has ever faced." He cited
the poor attendance at the theatres
last night as proof of his assertion
that the patronage of nearly every
theatre iu the city was affected by
the first appearance of golden voices
on the air.
The Metropolitan opera house,
however, was sold out for the per-
formance of "Feodora witn juariaig-et anywhere.
Jeritza as the principal singer. Miss
Bori also is a star at the Metro
politan.
The reception room at WEAF was
crowded.
Music critics who listened in on

thing is that something is lost when
a singer is heard over the radio.

J ENJOYED FINE Al
THE HOME OF HIS DAUGHTER
Charles Johnson had the pleasure
of spending Christmas in the coun
try southwest of town with his son-in-law
and daughter, Mr. and Mrs.
John Scheel, Jr., and with his little
grandson, Robert Russel Scheel.
Mr. Scheel came after his father-in-law,
with his spanking new team
of clay banks which he recently pur
chased at the sale of his uncle, Fer
dinand Wendt, of Crawford, who
took the horses to Adams, where he
held a big sale of horses a few weeks
I ago. The horses are 5 and 6 years
old and are perfectly matched, and
I are surely a handsome pair of high
I steppers. Tne trip to the farm was
I mrde in a sleigh and was very en-
joyable and somewhat of a novelty to
1 Mr. Johnson. They had a fine duck
I dinner on Christmas day. Louisville
