This is the statement OF Milas Lasa-
ter, president OF the Wichita bank. Of
what the suit brought in Kansas City
at The instance OF private loan com
panles attacking the constliutionalliy

meant OF farmers OF Kansas. Okla
homa, Colorado and New Mexico.
The case Is pending before The u. S.
supreme Court which says it must be
rc-arguod but which VIII not hear the
re-argumenl before fall-afier the

Lasaiors statement was made in tho
concise Terms of The nnancier. A
Held agent In his oiilcc. one OF The
men who 60 out and sec the farms ON
which loans are asked, and also SEQ

story IN another way.
It's tho young farmers that this
iie-up hits hardest, the ones that are
just starting out.

/ promised io build them a house; but
they didn't have a cent OF capital
AN old farmer offered 10 sell the
boy a quarter section, nearly half
under cultivation, for 5000 and take
a second mortgage, n he could get a
loan from the federal land bank. we
looked 70 over, and considering the
mature OF the place and the fact that
his neighbor Thought he was worth a
second mortgage risk, we agreed "a
loan him The fun limit OF 20 per cent

And then This ueup came. and
nad TO go out and tell them We had

adapted from the famous Broadway
success, which when given under the
direction of Oliver Morosco at the
Morosco theatre played night after
night to packed houses.
The production abounds in settings
done with the most regal magnifi-
cence and fairly eXudes a convincing
atmosphere of society and CAV life
! OF the New York studios. Tie gowns
worn by the women in the cast con-
stltute a veritable fashion show of
the most advanced styles. A mag

settings and action carried through
IN the most satirical vein is one Of
the earlier and most amusing bits ne

Kathleen Rutherford, young So.
c1ety woman, she is sought bv q
wealthy bounder of society and a
young Kentucky mine owner She
understands the one but does not
love him; the other is from a world
that Is strange to her and the ro-

sos APPLICATIONS FOR
STATE AID THIS YEAR

The State Highway Commission
met Wednesday for the purpose of
receiving applications for State aid
and making apportionment of State
aid funds. The commission received
a total of sos applications from as
many cities and towns. In order to
meet the applications in full it would
require $500, 107.61 and the appropria-
ton for this purpose is only $500, 900.
This matter was laid before the Gov
ernor and Council by the commission
with the request that additional
funds be furnished from the Sta.e
contingent fund. This matter has
been taken under advisement by the
council.
The total amount appropriated by
cities and towns this year for the
purpose of securing State Aid is $40
5000. This is the largest number of
towns which have ever made appro-
priation and the largest amount of
money which has ever been appro-
prlated for the purpose of securing
State Aid. Three towns, Fort Fair
held, Limestone and Presque Isle
nave made application under the
Three Town Act and seven towns
on the Ossippee and Pequawket trails
have applied under the provisions of
chapter l57 of the Public Laws of 1919
which is an amendment to the origi-
nal Three Town Act. Twenty-six
cities and towns have applied for adj
dltlonal aid, for the first time, under
section Il which is known as the
Five Times Clause" of the law. In Or
der to meet the extra aid applied for
by these towns it would require S69,-
5Sll2. Under the law these towns
ere entitled to the preference in the
matter of distribution of additional
aid. Fifty other cities and towns
which have previously enioyed the
benefits of additional State Aid arc
asking for $1I0,021.S0 additional aid.
The above figures will indicate that
there is a very great interest in i'm
mediate road work among the towns
ana the highway commission hopes
that some means will be found which
WI enable them to appropriate the
lull amount against all applications
received.
