Contest for Control Of State Assocja.
ton Begins With Arrival Of Delegates.
Des Moines. Nov. 6.-.rhe fifty-ninth
annual convention Of the Iowa State
Teacher Association opened here to-
day. Association politics early today
developed among the arriving dele
gates. It was claimed that the future
control Of the state school system de-
pended upon the outcome of the result
OF the annual election. The strife
seemed to be between the supporters
of State Superintendent Deyoe and
those members of the association who
prefer a hand in the government Of
the school system.
Prof. John E. Stout, president Of
Cornell College. was put forward by the
Deyoe forces for president Of the as
sociation. while either Dean A. e. BEN
nett. Of Highland Park College. or
Prof Forrest Ensign, registrar Of the
state university. was expected to be
the candidate Of the opposition.
The only controversy today in the
meeting of the state educational coun-
Gil was over one paragraph in the re-
port OF the committee on Iowa school
legislation which seemed to commit
the teachers to opposition to other leg
islation when needed and advised,
putting all effort on popularizins what
we have. This was stricken out after
debate, and this and all other reports
adopted.

Stock Of Regional Banks to Be Owned

Revsions-chanoe Made in Plan for
Selection Of Directors.

Washington, Nov. 6.-The stock OF
the regional banks of the new currency
system will be owned by the public and
regional banks and controlled by the
federal government. The senate bank
ing committee incorporated that fea-
ture in the currency bill by vote OF
to s.

ing for the resolution over the protest
Of Senators Owen. Pomerene. Shat
roth. Hollis and O'Gormon, the remain
ing democrats.
Jointly framed by Senators Reed.
Hitchcock and Weeks. the resolution
was regarded by some as the basis OF
compromise between the White
House and the senators in control on
the committee.
The provision In the house bill to
compel national banks to subscribe 10
per cent of their capital to the new
system under penalty of losing their
charters would be eliminated. II after
sixty days the public had not sub
scribed all the capital the banks enter
ing tho system would be required to
take up the remaining stock. That was
was one Of the proposals of the Van
derlip plan.
Compromise Resolution BY Weeks.
Control Of the new regional banks
was settled by a compromise resolu.
tion offered by Senator Weeks, provid.
ing that each regional bank have nine
directors. five to be selected by the
federal reserve board and four by the
banks. Under the house bill six Of the
nine would be chosen by the banks.
The action today is thought to have
cleared the way for an agreement In
the committee and may hasten pro-
gress Of tho bill. =
President Wilson has been conduct
Ing informal conferences with demo-
cratic senator's over the currency SIT
uatfon and many are urging q party
conference, not necessarily in the sense
Of q caucus. but as q movement to
make the democratic party sponsor of
the bill In the form the administration
wants 1t shaped.
Demand Democratic Measure.
President Wilson discussed the cur
rency situation at length today with
Senator Simmons who lead the tariff
fight in the senate.
Il don't think any caucus will be
necessary" said Senator Simmons af-
terward. "at least hope none will be,
but Of course democrats can not be
expected to support a bill coming from
committee in which the majority of
the democrats have been opposed to
what already has been adopted. It
must be democratic bill. There are
no developments yet but there are like
ly to be in q few days If the committee
continues az 1t has"
Signs Of concern at the White House
over the failure Of the senate banking
committee to como to an agreement
and the radical changes in the house
bill that are being tentatively adopted
were evident today.

Des Moines. Nov. s.-If the supreme
court upholds Judges Hunter and APP
plegate In their rulings on the capitol
grounds cases, Iowa may have 70 stop
all expenditures Tor year or two until
enough money can be accumulated IN
the treasury that taxes will not have to
be anticipated.
That Is said to be the meaning OF an
opinion which @. A. Willis. deputy
treasurer Of the state. today sent to
E. r. Harlan. curator Of the historical
department, in reply to request for
his Ideas concerning the effect the cap
ital ground cases might have upon 9TH
er proposed expenditures OF the state.
Mr.. Willis said In his letter that un-
der the rulings it is unconstitutional to
anticipate taxes in the amount OF more
than s25O.0OO for buildings ut state
schools. for Improvement Of state In
stitutions, or for general state works
which cost large sums.
Iowa carries only small balance in
its treasury, Mr.. Willis says. and is
therefore constantly anticipating rev.
enues. To meet the requirement OF the
law as seen by the lower courts the
state would have to keep n balance OF
a million or so dollars on hand all the
time.
With this expression of the deputy
treasurer. Governor Clarke today said
he agreed.
