Heavy Withdrawals
Cause Anita Bank to
Suspend Operations
Atlantic, la.. May 14. (Special
Telegram.) The Citizens Savings
hank ot Anita did not open its doors
for business this morning. Slow
collections made it impossible for the
institution to maintain a sufficient
supply of cash to meet its require
ments. The last few days there has
been a steady withdrawal of funds
by depositors. Collections were uot
ample to replace these, it is said.
The depositors will be paid 100
cents on the dollar, a statement ty
President Ryron D: Forshay said.
The bank carries a large amount of
paper given by farmers. l!ecause
of low prices, the; latter-have been
unable to liquidate their Indebtedness.

satisfied that, ,if passed, this bill
will be prolific nf business. to the
lawyers of the country, while they
ascertain what section 3 means, and
also sections 4 and 5. Each section
will result in plenty of lawsuits. If
the bill is ever held legal by the

Mr, JcfTcris pointed out that the
bill proidcs for experts, auditors,
tnd employment by the government
1 other personnel in investigating
r records of grain exchanges.
t'But, more than this," he added,
A will increase the cost, of handling
grain by compelling dealers in grain
on boards of trade to keen an im-
Amense amount of records and ' hire
number of employes to 'keep tlieni.
n that way, we compel them to
nake greater profits in order to i)av
for the conduct of their business
"and thus increased charges will be
placed on the farmers gram:
"If hedging; is necessary in the
grain business and that seems to
be the consensus of opinion here
then why curb hedging, why under
take to hamper it by all these regu
lations and centralizations of power
in the hands of someone in the ex
ecutive department tof the govern
ment ? On the other hand, if hedg
ing is unlawful, illegal or immoral,
we should, 'prohibit and make it a
criminal offense, or else fax it out

ference between Great Britain, Japan-
and the ' United ' States was
brought into question in the senate
during the debate on the $500,000,000

ject, while Senator Hale, republican,
Maine, declared the, , president
thought action by congress unneces
sary. . Senator Hale stated that he had

Further Hearing In
Sbllman Divorce Suit
Postponed to May 19
New York, May. 14. The next
hearing in the divorce action of
James A. Stilhnan, former president
of the National City bank, was post
poned for one week until May 25 by
Surrogate Daniel J. Gleason of
Dutchess county, the referee.
The postponement was by mutual
consent and was not due to any in
tention on the part of Mr. Stillman
to drop the proceedings, as. was re
ported early in the afternoon from
Poughkeepsie, where the next hear
in s will be held.
One of the mam reasons tor the
postponement was a conflict be
tween this hearing and another case
which makes necessary the presence
at Mineola of John B. Stanchfield.
Little doubt of, the determination
of Mrs. Stillman to press her fight
was left after she had visited , Mr.
Stanchfield at the latter's request to
confer with counsel on some new
evidence. There was not the slight
est hint that she had been approached
on the subject of a settlement or
that Mr. Stillman was considering
this method of terminating the ac
tion. Ex-Sheriff Made Captain .

G HANDLER built the first Light Six and the first Six

And it still sells for less than $2,000.
In this period of eight years more than 140 manufac

period, have discontinued for one reason or another. The

Chandler price has never been marked up because of
