there he went to Kelly Field, Texas
and later to Waco in the same state
From there he went to Camp Green
North Carolina, where he was transfer
red to truck company which drove
overland to Mitchell Field. There were
400 men in 125 machines. They had
a fine trip, which lay through the Green
mountains and other scenic spots.
Mr.. Traver expects to go to work
soon for the Consumers Refining COM
pany in Fort Dodge, with whom he was

! \ good many people in the vicinity
OF this city and Jewell, as well a!
elsewhere in Hamilton county, were
| very much interested in the news dis
patch carried in this paper Saturday
| to the effect that thirteen officers OF
the Pan Motor Company, Delaware
corporation, had been arrested by the
government. charged with using the
mails to defraud some $4,000 people
cut of five millions of dollars.
There is quite bit of Pan Motor
stock owned in Hamilton county
Agents of this company spent. some
time here last summer, dividing theil
time largely among the, various cotlrl-
ties in this immediate vicinity and il
is believed that Iowa people own a
large block Of this stock.
Started Factory.
The company started factories at
ST Cloud, Minnesota. The people of
that town and the country surround
ing dreamed of plant such as Henry
Ford has at Detroit and SO enthusiasts
tic did they become that the Chamber
of Commerce gave the company site
and made them other inducements to
erect their factory there. Stock sales
men were sent out, especially in the
states adjacent to Minnesota. The
company incorporated, however, in
Delaware But the most of its stock
was sold in Minnesota, Iowa and
other nearby states.
Charge Fraud.
The government charges that the
stock Of the company is worthless
or at least that it is worth a great
deal less than it is being sold for. 1t
is charged with having used the mails
to promote the sale of its stock and it
is charged with having victimized its
stockholders out of five millions OF
dollars. Just how much Of this stock
is owned in Hamilton county is not
known. hut il is said that a gOOdly
sum was sold hereabouts. Purchas-
ers Of this stock are probably "hOld-
ing the sack" If government charges
are true, they have probably lost
practically every cent they have put
into it.

of the stenographers and clerks in Of

The plan for securing a new $780,
900 temple of justice and law library
for the establishment of the northeast
corner of the extended capitol grounds
was neatly projected this week in a bill
providing for grand memorial to the
Iowa soldiers and sailors Of the recent
world war-the aforesaid building to
be the memorial. That sort of camOu-
fage ought TO get by with it. 1t Is
hard for any legislator to shoot at our
own soldiers and sailors.
The appropriations committees have
already discovered that the habit OF
thinking and talking in millions. which
was developed in the late war activi-
ties. remains with the people and in
stitutionS of Iowa to an extent that Is
hard to keep down. The amounts ask
ed for everything are appalling.

like situation and adopted resolution
calling for information concerning the
delay. The cfairmen of the printing
committees of both houses were order
cd to investigate and report on the
matter, and they went to the plant of
the Homestead Company for the facts.
1t is stated now that Bob" Henderson,
the man who was official state printer
under the old law, and who was often
accused by the Homestead of robbery
OF the state, of sharp practices, etc.
has been secured by the Homestead
to take charge of this important state

go along better in the future.

Well if the item about Egypt had been

that Egypt always did have a constitu-

to. go on thinking Egypt didn't have no
constitution at lease till the white paper
shortages Is over. As for the other item
it is like rubbing salt. in raw wound

eulogy of somebody's embalming fluid
that nobody will ever know II all they

the other items which have men-I
toned and 1st thing you know people
will be throwing white paper around
like it was 200 proof Scotch.
