Kansas Requests
Equalization of
Shipping Rates
Wants Freight Charges on Grains fo:
Export Purposes to be Same
in Fonr States.
Chicago. Feb. 23. Equalization of
freight rates in the Kansas, Nebras
ka. Oklahoma and Colorado grain
belts on grains for export purposes
so that all shippers may have the
choice of moving their commodity
through the gulf ports, was Kansas
City's request of the Interstate Com-,
merce commission.
Walter R. Scott of the Kansas
City board of trade, testifying at
the commissioner's hearing on ex
port rates Friday, also asked that
the rates into the ports be adjusted
so that no one Mater outlet would
have a traffic advantage over the
others. The export investigation was
authorized by the Hoke-Smith con
gressional resolution which sought
to determine if a rate adjustment
would aid farmers.
Scott said a wide difference in
rates between southern Kansas and
Oklahoma points eliminated Kansas
from the exDort trade so lone as
there was grain enough in Oklahoma'

reign of lawlessness existing in that

"As mayor of this city I deem it
my duty to call your attention to
the deplorable condition of affairs
that exists in this city. I speak for
the peaceful law abiding men, worn-
n and children who are terrified by
the reign of lawlessness that now

know that this community may be

of mob rule, riots and lawlessness.

Sinclair Makes Statement.
New York, Feb. 22. Harry
Sinclair, oil magnate, and his co-de
fendants. W. S. Biirn. W Shprm
Burns and II. Mason Day, convicted
of contempt of court in connection
with the Teapot Dome oil scandal,
today issued statements defending
their right to shadow jurymen.
They based their right on the as
sertion that "it has long been the
practice of the government tot shadow
juries."
"It is apparent," Sinclair said,
"that it is lawful for the government
to use Its great secret service in
shadowing juries, but unlawful for
the citizens to exercise the same
right. Heretofore no court has held
the mere act of Jury shadowing to
be unlawful. It is concluded that no
statute forbids it. and the repeated
practice both by the government and
by. defendants in courts all over the
United States has given it the sanc
tion of usage." World-Herald.

Dwells on Harmony.
Topeka, Kans., Feb. 22. Demo
cratic leaders who insist upon plat-
form planks on which the party is
divided were bitterly assailed tonight
bv Senator Reed (Mo.) before a
statewide rally of democrats.
i without mentioning names or me
issues to which he referred, the Mis-
sourian declared that "the man who
seeks to divide the party, to force
into the platform issues upon which
there is great division, is the best
assistant the republican party can
have."
He said "the efforts to coddle and
attract all sorts, classes and opinions
have alienated the votes of thou
sands who would willingly give loyal
adherence to the great principles for
whicli we stand."
Since opening his western cam
paign. Senator Reed has said off the
platform that the party has "bigger
fish to fry than prohibition," and
again tonight he declared the issue,
in his opinion, is "purging of the
public business; the cleansing of the
departments; the restoration of de
cency at the capitol."
"That is the crying need of the
hour," he shouted. "That work can
oe uone Dy tne democratic party
When that task is accomplished, it
will be time to debate and divide up
on other questions.
"Without hesitation I declare that

C00LIDGE IN VIRGINIA

commemorating the birth of Wash

Alexandria naval torpedo station

Washington, Feb. 21. The sen
ate today approved the conference
report of the interior department
supply bill, which would appropriate
$272,400,000 for the expenses of
that department in the next fiscal

was encountered when kaFollette,
republican, Wisconsin, objected to
inclusion of the irrigation project for
the Flathead Indian land in Mon
tana, a provision insisted on by the
house.

Guaranty Fund
Commission to
Pay Large Sum
Three Nebraska Banks to Be Cleared
Up by the State Depart
ment at Once.
Nearly a quarter of a million dol
lars in cash is being paid by the
Nebraska guaranty fund commission

The banks will continue to be op
erated as going concerns for the time
being, Secretary Van E. Peterson of
the commission announced Wednes
day morning. Further liquidation of
their assets is expected, he said, and
depositors will receive additional in
stallments on the amounts due them
before receivers are appointed.
All of these banks have been un
der the commission's control less
than a year; in fact, the average
time it has had them in charge is
only nine months. During that pe
riod, their deposit liabilities have
been cut down $716,563 out of the
proceeds realized from their own
properties and customers' notes.
At the times they were taken over,
the Scottsbluff. Malrnlm and Ben
nington institutions had total lia-
bilitics of $1,57S,531
The guaranty fund commission
has thus succeeded in paying 45 perl
cent of the obligations out of the re
ceipts from their operation.
New Plan Working Well.
"This method of paying depositors
in eacn uanK out of the collections
made by the commission from its as
sets is working out very well since
it was adopttd two months ago," said
Secretary Peterson. "Our policy is
to pay a.s large a percentage as we
can at an early date, and make fur-
the- distribut ions from tLTto time
as the money comes in.

One Bank Pays 59 Per Cent.
The best showing by any of the
trio of banks now discharging their
