C Hunger and Judge Vandervanter In the federal court. "W contested the law on the (round that It was unconstitutional, In that It appropri ated the assets of one bank to meet the obligations of another. It meant that the property of one person could be taken without compensation to pay another per son's debts, which I contended could not be done under the constitution of the United. .States. The lav further was pre sumed . to have been enacted under the police power of the state. The police power of the state Is not powerful enough to take the property of one to pay the debts -of another. Further, the guaranty law In effect ' prohibits the operation of private banks. This, too, Is unconstitutional, as we con tended that no business not In Itself vicious or harmful can be prohibited." Mr. Webster now has under way three suits In the circuit court at Topeka seek ing to set aside the Kansas guaranty law. The law of this state differs from the Ne braska, law In that participation In the guaranty plan la not compulsory, but volun tary. The aults In Kansas represent 142 national banks, forty-seven state banks and a number of stockholders. He condemns the Kansas law even more than the Nebraska law. "We are contending In this case," he said, .''that the law is beyond the police power of the state and that It makea an unlawful discrimination between banks. The fact that the , guaranty Is voluntary ( rentes this unlawful discrimination." Mr. Webster venturea the prophecy that the big Oklahoma bank failure and subse fluent developments will mean the end of the guaranty law in that state. Senator W. V. Allen has been associated with Mr. Webster In the prosecution of the Nebraska bank guaranty case. MR AN 9 DEATH OK GUARANTY President f Nebraska National Sees rtr-Rrsrhlii Ktfert. Henry W. Yates, president of the Ne braska National bank, declared with ap parent . pleasure that the decision hsnded down declaring the bank guaranty law Invalid was as he had anticipated. "I presume, not having seen the decision, that It was dcldfid on constitutional grounds only. This decision, while It may be carried tip to the supreme court, ends the controversy for the time. It means the death of all similar guaranty laws. '"That talk of a sptclul session on the guaranty law Is now proved to be all wind. The State legislature has no: the power to amend the constitution of the t'nlted StatfS, and that is what 14 would have to do to support .that law. It has appeared to me. clearly unconstitutional to levy a a tax upon the banks for the guaranty fund to assess one bank to met the obligations of another. This decision Is as 1 had rx Moted. I have b.en otrtaln that It would that way. "This will mean that the Oklahoma guaranty law Is also Invalid. The Kansas law will not be affected directly by this decision, as In that stitw the guaranty Is ot .compulsory.

This dredge built on the shore of Omaha's watering place has cost the park board $20,000. It will dredge out about 2,000,tt) yards of earth from the lake bottom and place It about the shores that are to be elevated, at a cost of probably $100,000, and the work will consume. It is expected, five years. Its seventy foot timber were transported here from Oregon, framed and put together on the shores of the lake. Looking like a one-story house of more than ordinary length, without windows, the dredge has a business-Ilk air,- and when fully equipped with, engines, knlfe-IIke swinging nose and pon tooned discharge pipe at the stern, it will do business, say Its builders. . Its life may be greater than the span of the work It has to do. but these who know will be satisfied If (t stands the strain until the work now planned is done.
