MONEY REMAINS IN IOWA.
Report Of State Banks Shows Postal
Savings Cut Little Figure.

Report Of State Banks Shows Postal
Savings Cut Little Figure.
Special to Times Republican.
Des Dimes, April 29.-The reports OF
Iowa banks just made to the state Of
ficials indicates that not very much
of the Iowa money on deposit is going
into the postal savings banks, or at
least not much of it is leaving the
state The bankers have feared that
the postal savings system would have
the effect OF taking great deal OF
money eastward. In some places the
ef.ec: has been to take the money
away. The plan resorted to by the
administration is to have postal saw
ings converted into savings bonds Of
$500 each and then to transfer these
accounts from local banks to the Wall
street banks. This process has been
going on steadily in the larger cities Of
the state and thousands Of dollars have
been taken away from Iowa banks by
the process. But despite this the bank
reports show a steadily increasing
total Of deposits In Iowa.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, April 29-The effort to

rosy having been discovered in Iowa Is

little out Of place. 1t is declared that

casionally in the United States is not
malignant. 1t is not generally known
that an apparently well authenticated
case Of leprosy caused the death of an
Iowa man a number Of years ago. He
was county recorder Of Story county,
and continued in his office for a long
time after his condition was discov-
cred. 1t was denied that his was a
case of leprosy but the doctors say
there was no doubt about 1t. He died
soon after leaving office.
