You have noticed that those who get ahead in the
world are generally those who are good managers who
have learned to take care of their incomes.
It is conceded the world over that the best way to
take care of one's income and have a growing balance
is to keep a bank account.
There are just as many reasons why you should
have an account at this bank as there are why any of
our hundreds of satisfied depositors should.

Former State Executive Announces
That He Will eek Demo

Lincoln, Neb., April 29. Charles
W. Bryan today said that it is his
"present intention" to run for gov
ernor in the democratic primaries
August 12.
"In view of the fact that news
papers have associated my name with
the candidacy I feel that in justice
to my many friends who have sought
my stand on the question, I should
tell them my present intention to be
a candidate for governor," the for
mer governor and democratic vice
presidential candidate said. He con
tinued :
"I am waiting to see who has the
nerve to file on the republican ticket
and face the taxpayers and depositors
in Nebraska, in view of the record
of that party in Nebraska during the
pat four years.
"Taxes have been raised SO pet;
cent since my administration and
they repealed the guaranty fund law
at the last legislative cession, thus
wiping out 19 million dollars which
the banks really owe the depositors.
"My budget, when governor, was
24 million dollars. The last budget
under the republican administration
amounted to 44 million dollars.

Former Gover
nor Says He's for
Senator Norri
Admires Senator's Watchfulness of
the People's Interests Defends
His Rfcht to Bolt.
Former Governor Bryan and Dr.
Jennie Mather Callfas, democrats of
standing, have been heard from, now
comes the voice of a republican twice
elected governor of Nebraska, the
voice of former Governor Adam Mc
Mullen of Beatrice, a consistent ad
vocate of farm relief thru the Mc
Nary Haugen bill and finally a sup
porter of Hoover for president.
"I am for Senator Norris." said
Mr. McMullen, when he was stopped
on the streets of Lincoln Tuesday.
"His stand cn agriculture was sound
and his watchfulness of the power
interests is to be ajlmired, and ap
pears to be what the people want.
"Why does anyone want to retire
from public service a man like Nor
ris? Is it his independence? Do peo
ple want a man who will always
agree with the administration? The
administration is not always right, is
it? Do they want a yes man, a rub
ber stamp man? If so they might as
well have no one in the senate. Nor
ris' labor of the past ten years to
keep Muscle Shoals out of the hands
o? private interests, an enterprise in
which $200,000,000 of the people's
money is invested, constitutes one of
the most outstanding contests I have
ever had the privilege of watching.
Do the people of Nebraska want to
retire Norris because he has not ob
tained federal patronagef or them?
Only a few desiring to hold office
are interested in spoils.
"A public officeholder told me he
intends to vote against Norris be
cause he does not believe Norris is
a republican, because he voted for a
democrat. This public officeholder
told me he would vote for a demo
crat as against Norris. I told him
perhaps Norris' reason for votipg for
a democrat was as good as his own.
that he was not according to Norris
the same privilege he is claiming for
himself, the right to vote for a demo
crat." CALL FOR DRY LAW REPEAL
Detroit An attempt to define the
attitude of the Michigan democrats
on the prohibition question will be
made at a preprimary convention to
be held at Jackson May 2 4. The call
for the conference, issued Tuesday by
Henry H. Heimann of Niles, chairman
of the state central committee, pre
sents a report of a special committee
which offers four platform planks cn
the subject. These four proposals,
which are to be submitte'd in num
erical order to the convention, read:
1. The present prohibition situa
tion is a national farce. The repub
lican party has proven itself too cow
ardly to enforce the laws. On the
other hand it has not the courage to
advocate their repeal.
2. The democratic party of the
state of Michigan pledges itself to
the repeal cf the eighteenth amend
ment to the federal constitution in
order that each state of the union
may again possess the right to regu
late or prohibit the liquor within its
boundaries in accordance with the
traditional democratic doctrine of
states' rights.
3. The eighteenth amendment to
our national constitution and the
laws enacted to support it by the na
tional and by the states represents
the highest social idealism ever en
acted into the laws of any nation.
4. We recommend to the congress
of the United States that the ques
tion of the repeal of the eighteenth
amendment to the federal constitu
tion be submitted to the states and
we pledge democratic candidates in
Michigan for the United States con
gress to vote for such action. As a
direction to congress and the states
we favor national referendum on the
repeal of the eighteenth amendment
in a separate election dealing with
the question alone.
Adoption of one of the proposals
would, of course, prevent voting on
subsequent ones.
FIRES RAGE IN WISCONSIN

Near Herbster, Wis., 125 men
worked over thousands of acres of

have already been burned. A slight
drizzle Tuesday failed to hinder the
progres of the fire. Much of the
burned territory included valuable
blueberry tracts. Seven miles west
of Washburn, Wis., more than 15,
000 acres of the new Moquah na
tional forest burned as a force of

Renew Disorders
in Penitentiary;
Guns are Ready
Trouble Follows Plan for Increasing
the Guards; Report of Probe
Nearly Complete.
Columbus, O., April 27. Serious
disorders were threat ned at Ohio
penitentiary again tonight as hun
dreeds of prisoners housed in "White
City" became restless and started
shouting and breaking windows.
National guardsmen, who have
been on duty outside the walls since
last Monday's fire in which 320 con
victs died, placed machine guns on
the lawn in front of the prison just
outside the cell block housing the
unruly men.
Determination to subdue the un
ruly prisoners was expressed by Wai
den Preston E. Thomas, after the
fiareup. He had been in conference
with other prison officials. "This
mutiny will be put down," was his
statement.
From outside the prison the con
victs were seen for two hours, milling
about on the cell block ranges. One
man appeared to be shouting instruc
tions to his fellow prisoners.
The machine guns were trained
on windows of "White City," which
houses those prisoners kept idle be
cause of lack of work.
Machine Gun Placed.
Another machine gun was placed
in the main entrance of the peni
tentiary. It was placed so that it
could sweep through the windows to
ward the shouting prisoners. The
guns were later withdrawn as night
progressed.
The windows broken by the con
victs were those between "White
City" and a new dormitory in the
southeast corner of the prison.
The men started running up and
down the ranges when someone
shouted "roof fire."
No national guardsmen were sent
inside the prison. Additional troops
arrived at the prison shortly after
the disorders started. There were
about four hundred in all.
A Bible taken from one of the con
victs was found to contain a knife
and several saw blades.
Extra Guards Planned.
Tonight's disturbance came shortly
after it had been learned that 40
extra guards would be put on duty
at the penitentiary Monday in an
effort to end the passive resistance"
campaign against Warden Thomas
and to put the prisoners back to
work. Previously the prisoners had.
been quiet, leading to the belief that
thre was no danger of recurrence of
last week's turmoil, during which the
men refused to do any work and
threatened to kill guards unless War
den Thomas was removed.
Harry French, chief of the Colum
bus police department, was called
into the conference of prison offi
cials.
The tensity subsided somewhat at
10 o'clock, although the convicts
were still milling about. One group
was reported to be talking over their
plight while others stood at the win
dows to watch the troop movements.
Report Completed.
Meanwhile after a week of inves
tigation into the penitentiary fire,
the state board of inquiry worked
Sunday to complete its report for
submission Monday to Governor My
ers Y. Cooper, upon whom rests the
task of fixing responsibility for last
Monday's disaster.
With its report, the board, headed
by Attorney General Gilbert Bettman,
will place before the governor 6S9
typewritten pages of testimony given
by the guards, convicts and prison
officials, including Warden Thomas.
In considering the investigating
report, Governor Cooper will have
nothing to indicate the couse of the
conflagration, for most of the testi
mony was devoted to individual opin
ions regaffiing efforts to rescue the
prisoners from their smoke-filled and
burning cells. Some witnesses, in
cluding Albert Nice, chief of the Co
lumbus fire department, declared that
none would have perished had the
guards unlocked the cells as soon m
the fire was discovered.
Although the governor has not
intimated the exact nature of the
action he will takt after studying the
report, it appeared certain that he
will recommend . no change in the
penitentiary's administration offi
cials. World-Herald.

Shift in the
Population Shown
by Census New
Reapportionment of Representation
in Congress 0ns of Coming
Probabilities.
Washington. April 27. Each new
tally of the 1930 census, now more
than three-fourths completed, brings
reapportionment closer to those new
ly populous sections termed by the
house census committee "the 15.000,
0 0 0 people without fair and equit
able representation."
That committee estimated the
1032 post reapportionment elections
will witness additions to eleven state
delegations, subtractions from seven
teen a considerable change in the
complexion of congress.
California, the chief gainer, will
he entitled to six additional repre
sentative's by the census committee's
advance calculations, while Michigan
would get four and Ohio three.
Representative Crail, California,
and Representative Hudson, Michi
gan, lay claims to the "most popu
lous district" title, each representing
about a million and a half people on
a 1310 ratio of 211.877 persons per
repreetative. and a probable 1930
ratio of 2 SO, 780. Constituencies of a
half million have been taken for
,Tar.ted in lower California, Detroit
and its environs, and in Dayton and
Toledo, Ohio.
This rituation. characterized as
"unprecedented in history" by the
census committee when it reported
the reapportionment bill, arose from
failure to reapportion on the basis
of the IS 20 census.
Representative Crail advanced tho
opinion that the city of Los Angelas
would simply cut his district into
five parts and that of Representative
Evans, republican, California, into
four.
The Michigan delegation looks
forward to a bitter political fight
over reapportionment which may
even result in a system of added con
gressmen at large.
One curious result of the reappor
tionment will be the division of
power in Arizona, single representa
tive state, which will gain a second.
Representative Douglas, who has
covered 21.000 miles in his cara
paicrns. and who has consulted with
himself and caucused with himself,
will hereafter share with another.
Four solo states remain Nevada,
New Mexico, Delaware and Wyoming,
unlcrs the 1930 census does some
thing unexpected in these localities.
Other states are expected to gain as
follows: Connecticut. x 1; Florida,
1; New Jersey, 2; North Carolina,
1; Oklahoma, 1; Texas, 2, and Wash
ington, 1.
