AS ONE OF THE PERMANENT AS
SISTANTS TO STATE BANK
COMMISSIONER

Out Of about thirty men who were
selected as assistant state bank com,
.missioners when the new law became
effective J. P. Whatley Of this city has
the honor Of being one Of the five men
to be retained permanently.
The large number Of assistants was
necessary at first owing to the vast
amount Of work that had to be done
in order to set ready for the new plan
Of insuring bank deposits.
II was understood that only a limited
number Of employees would be retained
and these the most efficient. The re-
tention Of Mr. Whatley is therefore q
strong Enforcement Of his work.
Mr.. WhatIey returned Saturday
night from Guthrie where he attended
2 conference Of Commissioner smock
and his assistants, lasting several
days. The district assigned to him in.
cludes the counties Of Southwestern
Oklahoma and he has 100 state banks
besides the national banks, under his
supervision. He leaves tomorrow on
an examining tour.

PROGRESS
is MADE
BY STATE LAW MAKERS S-MlLL IS
GRINDING
COMPULSORY EDUCATION BILL
Comes ont Of Committee With Favor
able ActiOn-PrOgress On Other
Measures

Guthrie, April 13-Last week saw
a steady, persistent progress in the
grind Of the legislative mill, with oc.
casional variations Of rather spec
taeular nature over the general appro-
priations and anti-gambling bills, both
Of which were left pending at the end
week.
One Of the bills Of chief Importance
that came out Of the committee with
favorable action following in both
houses was that Of Representative JOS
eph Pasehal of Roger Mills county,
carrying the constitution into effect by
compulsory education. The measure
has already been gone into at some
length. It requires the attendance Of
children between the ages Of s and 16
years for at least three months in
each year. The term may be extend.
ed to six months, being left optional
with the various local school boards.
Children are to be excused from at
tendance on account OF physical or
mental inability. List Of children be-
tween the designated ages must be
furnished by the district boards to the
city superintendents and the teachers
throughout the district. II the parent
or guardian is unable to furnish the
child with the proper books the county
superintendent Of public instruction is
authorized to extend temporary aid.
Farmers viii appreciate the impor-
tance Of the bill by Representative
Hudson, passed by the house, requir-
ing railroad companies to fence their
right Of way where the abutting land
Is used for hog pastures. A uniform
fence is specified, and the company is
required to build it only where the
owner Of the abutting land demands it.
There are two new bills providing
for the state printery, one by Senator
Agee, which has been on the calendar
OF the upper house for some time and
the other by Representative Cope. in
troduced this week. This is one Of the
propositions that the legislature will
not leave for successors according to
the present program. 1t was on this
understanding that the fight on the
state printers assistant was withdrawn
from the house. No objection is held
to this office if the state plant is es>
tablished
The prospect for an agricultural edu-
cation bill is flattering. Each house
has passed its own measure. The SEN
ate did not like the action Of the house
which passed its own measure after
the bill by Senator Franklin had been
passed by the senate and sent down
TO the house for its consideration. The
house bill was promptly reported un-
fayorably when it came up in the SEN
