wise to set back the gala date.
For nearly 800 years the business
of governing this little outpost of the

forms without material change. 1t
is but natural that the 10000 inhabi-

Revenues are raised chiefly from
tariff duties No land taxes are lev
led by the colony. There is a very
light tax on realty in the parishes

Richie Speaks OF ideals
Governor Ritchie's address, which
was. in part, as follows. occupied over
five minutes st is the ideal bred in
the colleges Of America which aids in
great measure in giving 10 this
country the prestige that it holds in
the world; in making these United
States the glorious union that they
FORM
Continuing, he said that the col
leges, in influencing the country.
have a worldwide influence in so far
as the United States determines
world policies.
Honest Day For Honest Wage
I'm going out from college" said
the Governor. the great thing to be
remembered in giving the best serv-
Ice TO your country is the sense OF
fairness-the willingness to give an
honest days work for the wages of
a day. He touched upon the way in
which the present conditions OF the
country seem TO have grown indi-
rectly from a lack of this sense of
fairness. and said that the many sug-
gestions for the remedy of the condi-
tons were wrong. with the excep-
ton of this one.
Various Versions Advanced
Some people will say that the
trouble is with the need for a read
justment of wealth. They will say
that part of the people have too
much of the money, while others are
pennliess. Another group will say
that the government is TO blame. and
other bodies will make various claims
as to the cause for the conditions
But the real solution lies in the rea-
sonableness of the citizens and their
willingness TO give as well as to re-
ceive."
The Governor complimented the
graduates on the work they have COM
pleted and upon the fact that they
have won their diplomas from so hon
ored an institution as s. Johns.
Then followed the award of various
prizes and comforting of honorary de J
grees. Judge Robert Moss presented
the Governor and Major-General
Alexander for their honors; while
James NJ. Munroe. a member of the

BANK CLOSES; CLAIM
SHORTAGE OF $500, 900

COALGATE, OKLA. Nov. 25.-The
biggest bank failure in Oklahoma in
five years was revealed today with
the arrest of Roy S. Hotchkiss, vice
president of the Citizens State Bank
of Coalgate, charged with operat-
ing an insolvent institution. The
bank was closed by State Bank Com
missioner Fred Dennis, following
alleged discovery of a shortage of
more than 100000.
The unfavorable marketing sea-
son which prevented farmers from
disposing Of their crops and taking
care of their notes together with bad
management on the part of directing
officers. was blamed by county off,
cials for the failure. Hotchkiss' ar
rest was ordered by the county at
torney, no charges being filed by the
State banking department.
The closed institution was reor-
ganized by Bank Commissioner Dem
mis- under the name of the Security
State Bank.
