CONTROVERSY OVER
CAR SHORTAGE ON
Continued From Page ~

which the representatives of the people
have said Is wanted.
When the Thomas "bluesky" bill,
senate file No. came to the govern or
last month he signed 1t, because he had
recommended similar legislation and
because apparently the bill fairly full
filled the desires of people who insist
that Iowa has been mulcted out Of too
much money by wild schemes OF cor.
poration promoters in other states.
Then the bill was held up, on request
of representatives of national organ
ization' of dealers in stocks and Sc
curities, who represented that II 1t be-
came law 1t would seriously inter-
fere with their business.
A hearing was had and everybody
interested appeared and told their
respective stories.
1t finally simmered down to a ques-
ton as to whether or not the bill as
passed is legal. On this Gov. Clarke
refuses to pass. He takes the ground
that whether 1t is or not it is not for
him to say. He would not positively
refuse to veto q bill because Of Its
illegalfty, but he would have to be
shown, and there would have to be no
shadow of doubt about violation Of the
before he would use the
veto power.
So the singing Of the bill which was
heretofore mentioned is to stand and
the bill today went to the Office Of the
secretary Of state to be incorporated
In the session laws and code.
The governor gave out an Informal
TOD NV RI
ton on the bill. In this he explained
that while the form of the bill does not
meet with his entire approval never
theless It is aimed in the right direc-
ton and that he was not going to take
it upon himself to declare 1t uncon-
when he had not been con-
vinced Of that fact beyond the shadow
Of doubt.

Insolvency Of the Guarantee and
Trust Company, because it has not
a sufficient reserve fund, is the SOL
id ground upon which Judge John T.
Pendleton rests his decision against
that concern, according to the order
he has entered in the case.
He states that the company has
sufficient assets to cover its liabili-
ties, but that it does not meet with
the requirements of the act Of 1904
which requires that there be enough
assets invested to equal the reserve
fund with 3 - per cent interest.
Many Of the investments of the Guar
antee, he says. are in the teeth Of
the act of 1904"
The concern is trustee Of the re-
serve fund in every sense Of the term.
he says. and while legal title 10 this
fund remains with the company. the
beneficiary interest is with the bond -
holders. Part of this reserve, he holds,
has been misappropriated
He named John ID. Robson. of A
NJ Robinson Company, receiver, but
this is merely a nominal appointment,
as the receivership is held up pend
ing the filing Of a bill Of exceptions,
and then pending the outcome Of the
case in the Supreme Court.
The order Of the court restraints the
company from carrying on it's bust
ness, other than conserving assets.

GOSSIP ON WHEAT MIXED;
CORN BELT NEEDS RAINS

CHICAGO, June 21.-The Inter Ocean
says: Gossip on wheat last night was
more mixed than for several days. The
big cash business made traders who
were inclined to the bull side think that
wheat should be bought on all setbacks
from the present level.
Many Of the pit traders in corn said
that unless good general rains are
shown in the weather reports to-day
they expect a good rally. Bears. how
ever, believe that with rains the mar
ket is due for a decline. Most traders
in oats believe that the local trade is
long on more oats than they want Ia
carry with any further let-up in the
outside buying or with good general
rains. Most traders look upon II as
largely a weather affair"
