Des Moines, May S.-The supreme
court rendered a decision which has II
bearing on the fight going on in the
Modern Woodmen lodge. 1t was suit
brought against the Iowa State Travel
resistance being on the ground that the
beneficiary of an accident policy had
refused and failed to pay certain as
sessnlents which he claimed were in
excess of the rightful amount due 1t
seems that these extra payments were
for the purpose Of creating Il reserve
fund. The supreme court held that
such creation Of a reserve fund was
illegal in a beneficiary fraternal COM
pany and that an effort to assess for
such fund violated the principle of
fraternalism. This is the essence of
the fight among the Modern Woodmen,
and the decision may have influence
in determining that contest
Hint to Parole Board.
There is a gentle hint to the parole
board given in the decision in the Guy
Baker murder case from Lone Tree
that after eight or ten years it ought
to consider a motion for release on
parole Of the defendant. The decision
included a statement that the mem
bers OF the court were divided and
some of them would have been salts
lied with verdict for manslaughter
instead OF second degree murder I'm
der the latter Baker received twenty
years; under the former the limit
would have been eight years But, and
this is outside the record, it is stated
that Baker had been either accused or
suspected Of some other previous homi-
cides, and always had escaped largely
because he and his relatives are
wealthy. The murder at Lone Tree
was declared by the attorneys fer the
state to have been an especially bad
one. as Baker had been making threats
against Driver, whom he had accused
OF theft. and during the day on which
the killing took place he asked n num-
Der Of persons where he could find
Driver and spoke as If, he would do him
violence. 1t is expected that of course
there will be an argument for rehear-
ing of the case. tho the printed argu-
ments already filed are very long and
oral arguments were made at length
to the court.
