FIGHTING TO D|SCRED|T
BANK GUARANTY LAW

Washington, D. g., July Tin an
effort to discredit the Oklahoma bank
guaranty law, Postmaster General
Hitchcock is spreading press DOPE
broadcast evidently with the view OF
holding the new states banking law
|up to rldicule.
National bank directors in Oklaho.
ma are strongly endorsing the postal
savings bank plan. as the guaranty
law has greatly decreased their de-
posts and they hope the postal saw
|ings banks will prove powerful com
netitors to state banks so that earn
|ings of the national banks may be aug
mented.
Without diyulging the bankers
name or the city, the postoffice de
partment has made public letter
from an Oklahoma banker, which in
part is as follows:
Il am d national banker, and think

here now and not making much effort
to do business in this country, simply

the law in every part Of the state. He
said he is democrat, but considers
good democrats should oppose corrupt
methods in the party.
Cruce devoted most of his time to a
defense of the Haskell administration
and the democratic party in the state.
He accused Bill Murray of attempting
to claim credit for the Oklahoma con-
situation and declared that the Okla

hearts of the people of Oklahoma be-
fore the gavel of the constitutional
convention ever sounded and that the
delegates merely carried out the win
OF the people.
There is no more doubt in my mind
that l will be nominated for governor
on August 2 than that the sun will set
tonight" said Cruce.

Enid, Okla, July 7.--Three hundred
people greeted the four democratic
candidates for governor when they
met here at 1 o'clock yesterday after
noon at the Loewen theater in Joint

THINK PROBLEM IS
MORE DIFFICULT
Hope Is Expressed That America VIII
Avoid Such EXPECTATIONS as
Reno Fight.

London, July 4 The racial con-
|fiicts following the Jeffries-Johnson
fight at Reno are the theme of gen.
eral discussion in the British press.
Varying opinions are expressed, but
the universal admission is that John
sons victory has made the problem
for the United States much harder
than before.
The Daily Telegraph in an editorial
says:
1T is useless to hold up the hand
Iof reprobation here. These things
are brutal and vile. but behind them
lies the absolute necessity to keep the
negro race little in check. for If it
once gets out of hands there will be
worse scenes under the stars and
stripes than have ever yet been wit.
messed there
The Times In an editorial this morn
ling contends that the fight at Reno,
which was conducted creditably and
in fair and orderly manner, proves
nothing. A thousand picked American
whites, the paper says, would prob.
ably beat on equal terms a thousand
picked negroes in any conflict or form
of physical endurance.
eThe American feeling must frank
ly be recognized" says the Times. 1T
is easy in England, where there is no
color problem, to express indignation
at the lynchings II confronted with
entirely similar conditions there is
much reason to fear that Englishmen
would not be more tolerant
The Times thinks that the pivot of
the whole question is the worldwide
Instructive feeling against color inter-
marriages. and hopes that the con
science of the American will in the
futgre make itself effectively felt
against such explorations as the Reno
fight

DATE
FIXED FOR TRIAL
In the Meantime the Senatorial In
vestisatlon Of the Alleged "Third
Degree" Methods Occurs.

Guthrie, Okla, July THAT Cover
no- Haskell will be placed on trial in
the federal court at McAlester Step
tember 26 is now almost certain.
Judge Byard T. Hainer of Tulsa, who
is associated with United States At
torney William J. Gregg in the prose
cution of the Haskell fraud cases,
stated here that the cases would un-
Questionably be set for trial on that
date. Judge Marshall of Utah, it is
announced, win preside at that time.
During the period between now and
the Goth of September it is supposed
the senatorial investigation will occur
of the alleged third degree" methods
employed in securing the Haskell in
dictments. While no date for the
probe has been fixed, it is assumed
that it will take place before the trial
can commence.
The latest and most definite news
from Washington in regard to the
third degree probe is that one sena-
tor only will look into the Haskell
case. Senator Bandagee of Connecti-
cut, chairman of the committee, will
head the subcommittee to investi-
gate the federal prosecutions in the
Seyler murder case at Atlantic City
and some matters in Northern Cali
fornia. Both these subcommittee
will consist of three senators and the
relative Importance may be gathered
from the fact that one man only will
investigate the charges of the gov
ernor of Oklahoma that he was indict-
ed by unfair methods. 1t is also re-
ported that Senator Stone of Missouri
will be the solon assigned to Okla
homa.
The senate committee appointed for
the purpose has learned that it can't
probe the Gore charges because it was
not provided with funds to pay the
cost Of their labors. When the reso-
luton of inquiry was passed, Senators
Hale and Hughes said that no appro-
priation was desired or needed. So
the committee has the authority but
not the wherewithal to make an in
yestigation They will not meet until
congress assemblies in December.
The house in creating its commit.
tee, gave it broad powers and funds
with which to make its researches. No
direct appropriation was made, but
there is house contingent fund to
draw upon in such emergencies. Data
to be used by this committee is now
being prepared both in Washington
and Oklahoma and copies of all the
contracts between McMurray and
others and the Indian nations will be
employed in the probe.
