BOUNTY PROVES EFFECTIVE
Bank BurgIaries Decline Since $4,000
Reward-High Record Here.

Forty-six attacks, burglaries and
hold-ups of Kansas state and national
banks were reported in the year ended
May /. That is the record as made
public today by W. W. Bowman, sec
rotary of the Kansas Bankers asso-
citation.
In the five months from May to Oc-
tober, losses to banks in this state
were exceedingly heavy. They reached
a total of several hundred thousand
dollars for currency and government
bonds. Then the bankers placed a
bounty of $1,000 on the head of every
bank burglar Nor was it necessary to
bring the hold-up man in alive to win
the award. A dead one was just as
valuable as a live one.\
Since October the bank looters have
suffered a decline in their business.
Fewer hold-ups have been reported
and losses have been smaller. None
the less the record of forty-six rob-
berries and attempted robberies dur
ing the year is a new standard of
crime for Kansas

New State House Puzzle.
In the state house today there is
new puzzle. Has Hopkins again
changed position? Was his statement
given to a Kansas City paper merely
that he might secure publicity?N Or
does Hopkins fear to deny the posi-
ton which the Kansas City paper de-
fined for him. The Hopkins-Wilson
row is attracting far more attention
in state house circles than bank trou-
bles at Aulne or Hanover.
There is little danger, apparently,
that the state bank guaranty fund is
to suffer a severe shock as a result
of the Aulne bank failure. Cashier
Johnson's shortages aggregate $50, 900,
according to reports. Wealthy rela-
tives, as well as officers and directors
of the bank, are expected to work out
a reorganization plan which will save
the institution and pay depositors.
Practically every dollar taken from
the Aulne bank by johnson has been
used in the purchase and stocking of
his farm and in the building of a new
home. This property may be sold to
pay the banks creditors. Johnson's
statement is said to be a confession of
his entire plan of operations and de-
falcations thru use of loose leaf sys-
tem. While the bank cashier was not
arrested until Tuesday night. he was
in custody of deputy sheriff during
the entire time he was here.

BONUS LEGISLATION.

Soldier bonus legislation has met
with so many difficulties that there
is some doubt of its passage before the
adjournment OF congress for the pres
idential conventions. There seems to
be no want of disposition to enact
remunerative measure in behalf of the
veterans; the difficulty is that the
members of the house ways and means
committee have not been able to agree
as to how the bonus is to be raised.
The majority of the committee at
first favored a sales tax to raise the
necessary revenue-about $4,000, 00O,-
900. This was to be applied to all
sales of merchandise exceeding a dol
lar and to stock transfers and the like.
But objection was raised to this plan
by Republicans who had the support
of the Democrats of the house. They
would not agree to the proposal to tax
things people wear and consume.
This opposition is based either on
shortsightedness or on political rea-
sons. These members can hardly be
in ignorance of the fact that the tax,
however levied. will come out of the
pockets of these same consumers. The
burden will not be lightened by SEEM
ing to collect it from somebody else.
In fact it's payment would be less ap-
parent il collected in the form of a
sales tax than in any other way. The
dealer simply would include it in his
expense account, the same as other
taxes. advertising, rent and clerk hire.
The opposition proposed a retroac-
tive tax on war profits-a tax of 80
per cent on individual and corpora
ton incomes over and above the pre-
war income, with an exemption of
$4,000 for individuals and 100000
for corporations. The ways and means
committee majority opposed this plan.
1t was denounced as a measure of
confiscation and its constitutionality
was questioned.
Now the committee ma jority has
come forward with compromise pro-
posal, with the sales tax feature elm
mated. The plan of this is to increase
the tax on incomes, tobacco and real
estate sales and to make a new levy
on stock and grain transactions. From
these sources the Majority believes
that revenue amounting to $1,4OO,000
900 can be raised, an amount which it
considers sufficient to- provide for the
veterans.
Under this plan compensation for
home service is reduced from 1925 a
day. as provided in the first bill, to 81
for each day of service, while pay
ments for foreign service would re-
main at $1.25 a day. to be made for
service from April 6, 1917, to July 1,
1919. The payments would begin
April 1. 1921. and be continued in
twelve quarterly installments.
